Operationalizing Computing Verb Enhancements to Bloom's Revised Taxonomy: Leveraging Bloom's for Computing to Create Learning Outcomes for Various Computing Disciplines

Abstract

Learning outcomes serve as reference points for assessing course success, for building prerequisite structures, for determining credit transferability to other institutions, and for ensuring program completion. Technical disciplines have found it more difficult to design learning outcomes because discipline-specific terminology has not been compatible with the existing verbs listed in Bloom's Revised Taxonomy. Computing faculty representing different disciplines, including Information Technology, Cybersecurity, and Computer Science, will serve as panelists to explain their approach to creating effective learning outcomes using the Bloom's for Computing list of computing-related verbs to enhance Bloom's Revised Taxonomy.
