Структурування когнітивного розвитку: таксономія Блума як рамка для підготовки майбутніх учителів англійської мови

To effectively prepare pre-service EFL teachers for the multifaceted nature of language teaching, it is essential to provide a conceptual framework that promotes reflective thinking, metacognitive awareness, and higher-order reasoning. Bloom’s Taxonomy offers such a framework for structuring cognitive development and instructional design. The taxonomy’s hierarchical model, from remembering and understanding to analyzing, evaluating, and creating, proposes a systematic way to categorize learning objectives and design teaching activities that move from basic to advanced thinking skills. In teacher education, Bloom’s framework not only guides curriculum planning but also helps develop critical thinking, lesson versatility, and reflective practice. These are essential skills for effective EFL teaching. Using these cognitive levels, pre-service teachers can promote communicative competence and learner independence in diverse classrooms.
