Bloom's taxonomy is a classification system used to define and distinguish different levels of human cognition-i.e., thinking, learning, and understanding.

Bloom's taxonomy is a classification system used to define and distinguish different levels of human cognition-i.e., thinking, learning, and understanding.

"Understanding" occurs when new learning connects to prior knowledge. At this point, students have the ability to make sense of what they have read, viewed, or heard and can explain this understanding to others.

Speaking and writing was how teachers checked understanding traditionally. Nowadays, there are a number of different ways to do this in a digital way allowing students to show understanding by summarising and explaining ideas in an individual way. It also allows them to interact with the information in a way presented to them that they may not instantly recognise.

Traditionally, this first low order thinking level (LOTS) was the one education called on most. Retrieving, recalling and recognising information from memory. This is still relevant today, but not as much as it was in earlier generations.

This element of the taxonomy in the digital age refers to the retrieval of material. Given the vast amount of information available to us it is not realistic to expect students to remember every fact or figure. However, it is crucial that students can use digital means to find, record, organise, manage and retrieve the important resources they need. This is a key element for growth in knowledge and information.

The 'applying' stage provides opportunities for students to demonstrate their ability to implement learned procedures and methods. It requires that students be able to apply concepts in unfamiliar circumstances.

Here students can demonstrate what they know through products like models, presentation, interviews and simulations.

Analysing involves breaking material or concepts into parts and determining how the parts relate or interrelate to one another. We were all born with this innate curiosity that essentially allows us to make sense of the world.

Our students receive a huge amount of information through the Internet. It comes in the form of advertisements, Google searches, links on a Facebook account, a tweet, video on YouTube, an email, text message or even a homework assignment. The multi-media age our students are growing up in requires the ability to constantly analyze content. Using this cognitive level, analysis, we are equipping them with the ability to differentiate between But are we properly equipping them with critical thinking skills which lead to the ability to differentiate and organise the information they receive.

The cognitive level of Evaluating focuses on skills necessary to judge the value of ideas, techniques, products, or solutions. Students must evaluate the credibility or functionality of given content with clearly defined criteria and standards. In order for students to exercise this higher order thinking skill they need to have strategies that help them set criteria and implement evaluation procedures. Evaluation relies on set criteria or standards rather than an individual opinion.

Creating is the synthesis of thoughts and prior experiences. Creativity involves all of the other facets of the taxonomy. In the creative process the student/s, remembers, understands & applies knowledge, analyses and evaluates outcomes, results, successes and failures as well as processes to produce a final product.

Let´s get to work!

Blogging has many benefits. Aside from the therapeutic nature of expressing your thoughts and chronicling your adventures, blogging gives aspiring authors a prime chance to practice writing. The more posts you craft, the more chances your writing chops can lead to new opportunities.

As with most starving artists, however, money is usually at a premium. Thankfully, blogging doesn't have to be expensive. Several free blog sites can help you get your ideas online, or you can use an almost-free hosting plan that comes with blogging tools. We outlined the cases for both and make our case for what we think works best.

It sounds counterintuitive, but blogging for free is all about where you want to invest your money in growing your site and your audience. These steps will get you up and running without cost, but you might want to spend a few dollars for certain perks.

Step 1: Sign Up With One of the Best Free Blog Sites

Believe it or not, there are plenty of reputable free blog hosting platforms out there. Our favorites include plenty of storage and bandwidth, along with design help and the ability to use a custom domain name.

Wix is among the most recognized names in affordable hosting and do-it-yourself site building. One of the few free hosts to offer unlimited storage and bandwidth, x10hosting also includes eCommerce functionality.

Step 2: Choose a Theme and a Domain Name (Not Free)

All three sites offer hundreds of templates for you to choose from; some are geared specifically for blogs, while others might be better suited for businesses or portfolios. Wix excels on theme design, but their free plan limits you to hosting your blog on a Wix.com subdomain (meaning yourblogname.wix.com).

Our other recommendation, x10hosting, includes free domain hosting on whatever URL you own - but that means purchasing and registering a custom domain name. That decision bodes well for your blogging brand but can cost between $5 and $15 each year.

Step 3: Customize and Begin Blogging!

All three platforms offer a website builder with your theme and hosting plan, meaning you'll have roughly the same options to adjust your site layouts, fonts, images, and colors. The differences come when you want to add functionality to your site - maybe with a social sharing widget or a plugin for readers to comment on your posts. Wix covers most of your needs in their App Market, but we appreciate that x10hosting offers simple installations of many popular third-party programs.

OK, it's not completely free, but spending less than $5 a month on hosting unlocks a ton of included useful features that will make a dramatic impact on your blog's success. From SEO tools to marketing credits and dedicated support teams, affordable hosting plans are worth every penny.

1. Sign Up With One of the Best Hosts for Blogging

We say it all the time - low-cost hosting doesn't have to mean cheap. High-powered hosts can bundle full-service packages for surprisingly low fees. In addition to better performance and security, most of these providers offer free domains and email accounts.

2. Choose a Domain (Free With Top Hosting Plans)

Once you get hosting, you'll need a place to show off your work. Most hosting companies help their customers register and host their domain for free - some even give you the domain name free for the life of the account. If you already own a domain or run a blog, our recommended hosts will seamlessly transfer or migrate your files to your hosting account for free.

3. Download and Install Free Blogging Software (WordPress is #1)

Perhaps one of the best things about affordable hosting is how you can tailor your site to whatever suits your needs. You'll have access to hundreds of one-click installations for content management systems, eCommerce platforms, message boards, and more - and many of those programs have optional plugins or extensions to add further functionality.

We love WordPress, the CMS used by millions of bloggers, professionals, and businesses around the world. Because of the platform's popularity, hosts put a lot of effort toward optimizing their infrastructure and support for WordPress performance. Some even create special WordPress products, such as managed services, a WordPress site builder, or a staging environment, to help customers succeed.

4. Choose a Theme and Customize Your Blog's Look

WordPress gives you millions of themes to choose from. Many will be free, but consider looking at premium themes if you have specific ideas about how your blog should look and operate. Otherwise, the site builders and other platforms available through your hosting provider will walk you through the process of picking and customizing a template.

We get it - it's hard to argue with free. For your blog to be successful, however, getting online without spending a dime is pretty hard to do. You'll eventually want to pay for the domain name and upgraded features that come with free hosting. By investing in an ultra-affordable blog hosting plan, however, all those features - and more - come included at no cost. We've tested and reviewed the blogging experience across many of the industry's best blog hosting providers to help you find the best stage for showcasing what you have to say.

I think one of Animaker's best benefits is their super useful support. Whenever I tackled an issue or had a question, they responded very promptly. I never had to wait too long.

What I loved about animaker is the flexibility and the amazing range of resources available. Be it a character or a property, it has everything in one single place.
