Use of Bloom’s taxonomy for developing higher level questioning – example Gravity Bloom level Knowledge/recall Comprehension/ understanding Application Analysis Synthesis Evaluation Relation to science Knowing facts and describing what is observed Using ideas in familiar contexts. Deducing information from an experiment. Using knowledge and understanding in a new situation. Breaking information down, contrasting information and seeing patterns. Generalising from given information, linking ideas, designing and making predictions. Comparing and discriminating between ideas, summarising ideas. Making choices based on reasoned argument. Verifying the value of evidence. Examples of questions on gravity Who was the first person to use the idea of gravity to explain why objects fall? What is weight? When was the idea of gravity first suggested? Why does the moon stay in orbit around the earth? What did you find out when you dropped a cricket ball and a tennis ball? How can you measure the pull of gravity on an object? Where might you be if the pull of gravity was one sixth as strong as on earth? When can you feel what it is like to be weightless without leaving earth? What would happen if you dropped a hammer and a feather on the moon? Where (in the solar system) would your weight be greatest? How would your weight change if you travelled to Europa? What patterns can you see in the table showing information about the mass, size and gravitational field strength of the planets? How is weight different from mass? How does the pull of gravity change as you go further from the centre of earth? Why will opening their parachute slow down the fall of a sky-diver? Why would you feel weightless if you were on the space station in orbit around earth? What might happen if you got near a black hole? Why might a model of space as a rubber sheet, with weights on it to show stars and planets, help to explain gravity as being caused by a curvature of space? How might your body change if you lived in zero gravity for a few months?
