Abstract

This chapter will discuss how to use the revised Bloom's Taxonomy as a framework for not only creating learning objectives but also as a guide to select tools to reduce the use of discussion forums and support faculty in broadening their thinking about the variety of tools that can be used to address learning objectives. Tools include: wikis, blogs, quizzes, journals, Web 2.0 tools, infographics and videos. These tools reduce faculty dependence on discussion forums and support faculty in broadening their thinking about the variety of tools that can be used to address learning objectives to create manageable workloads.
