 THE THREE DOMAINS OF KNOWLEDGE /
EPISODE 3 LEARNING ACTIVITIES
______________________________________________________________________

My Learning Episode Overview:

Benjamin Bloom cited three (3) domains of knowledge – cognitive, psychomotor

and affective. Kendall and Marzano also gave three (3) groups of learning – information
(declarative knowledge), metacognitive procedures (procedural knowledge) and
psychomotor procedures (motor or physical skills). This episode will focus on these
domains of knowledge and learning.

My Intended Learning Outcomes:

In this Episode, I must be able to:
 classify the lesson/s under Bloom’s taxonomy of knowledge and Kendall’s and
Marzano’s domain of learning activities.
 reflect on what lesson is more meaningful and relevant based on the domains of
knowledge and learning activities

My Performance Criteria:

I will be rated along the following:

a. quality of my observations and documentation,
b. completeness and depth of my analysis,
c. depth and clarity of my classroom observation-based reflections,
d. completeness, organization, clarity of my portfolio and,
e. time of submission of my portfolio.

My Learning Essentials:

A. Three Domains of Knowledge (Kendall and Marzano):

1. Information – Declarative Knowledge; e.g. Facts, concepts,
generalizations, principles, laws
2. Mental Procedures – Procedural Knowledge; e.g. writing a term paper,
reading, map algorithms like computing long division
3. Psychomotor / Physical Procedures / Motor Skills – Skills e.g. playing
basketball, building furniture

FIELD STUDY 2 – Experiencing the Teaching – Learning Process

Concrete examples:

Information:

1. Vocabulary – isosceles, equilateral, right triangle

2. Generalization –All right triangles have one angle of 90 degrees.

Mental Procedures – Conducting proofs and figuring the length of the side of
a right triangle

Physical / Psychomotor Procedures / Motor Skills

Constructing a right triangle with a compass and a ruler

B. Three Domains of Knowledge / Educational Activity (Bloom, B.)

1. Cognitive – knowledge – What will students know?

2. Psychomotor – skills – What will students be able to do?
3. Affective – values, attitudes – What will students value or care about?

Cognitive examples:

Cognitive – Air pollution

Psychomotor – Researching on the level of air pollution in the locality and on

the causes of air pollution

Affective – What to do to reduce the level of air pollution?

FIELD STUDY 2 – Experiencing the Teaching – Learning Process

My Map:

I will observe three (3) different classes.

I will reflect on the guide questions given below.
To realize intended learning outcomes, I will follow these steps:

STEP Read the Learning Essentials given above.

Kendall’s and Marzano’s Domains of Knowledge:

Concrete Example/s for each Domain of

Knowledge from my Observation (What did

your Teacher teach? What was the focus of
your Teacher’s lessons?)

1. Cognitive Domain – Information Ma’am Ramos wrote on the board the formula
(Declarative Knowledge) – Vocabulary, in computing the volume of a cylinder
terms, facts, concepts, principle, (V=πr2h). She also told her students about pi
hypothesis, theory (π), radius (r) and the height (h) of the cylinder.

2. Mental Procedures (Procedural Ma’am Ramos explained to the students how

Knowledge) – e.g. mental skills such as
writing a paragraph
to use the formula in getting the volume of a
cylinder (V=πr2h). She then gave some sample
problems and let her students solve it on their
own. One of her examples is this one: “Find
the volume of the cylinder with an 8cm radius
and a 15cm height.” The students solve the
problem on their paper. One student
volunteered to write his answer on the board.

3. Psychomotor - skills Based on my observation, Ma’am divided the

class into 5 groups and gave each group
different sizes of tin cans. Each group was
tasked to compute the volume of the assigned
can. Lastly, each group presented their output
in front of the class.

4. Affective – values, attitudes As a summary, Ma’am Ramos asked her

students “What do you think is the importance
of finding the exact volume of a cylinder?”. A
student named John Lloyd answered that it is
important to know how to compute for the
volume of a cylinder so that we will know how
much quantity can a certain cylinder contain
(non-verbatim).

1. Cognitive Domain – Information
(Declarative Knowledge) – Vocabulary,
terms, facts, concepts, principle,
hypothesis, theory
Sir John Paul Labesores played a short film
about Cybercrime. He then later explained
what cybercrime is and what are some of its
examples like Cyberbullying, identity theft,
scam, phishing, hacking, illegal download,
digital piracy and etc.

2. Mental Procedures (Procedural Sir Labesores showed different photos of

Knowledge) – e.g. mental skills such as
writing a paragraph
different examples of cybercrimes and let his
students identify the correct name of the
presented cybercrime. He also allowed his
students to explain what they have known
about the cybercrime in the photo.

Bloom’s Domain of Learning Activities:

Domain of Learning

3. Psychomotor - skills Sir Labesores gave his students a role-playing

activity. Each group has been assigned with
one cybercrime to portray. He also
emphasized that their role play must also
include solutions to such cybercrime. The
activity ended with Group 3 (portraying identity
theft) gaining the highest score.

4. Affective – values, attitudes Sir Labesores asked his students about the
significance of studying the legal, ethical, &
societal issues with regards to cybercrime and
how will the students relate it these
cybercrimes into their day-to-day encounter
with the internet / computer.

Kendall’s and Marzano’s Domains of Knowledge:

your Teacher’s lessons?)

1. Cognitive Domain – Information
(Declarative Knowledge) – Vocabulary,
terms, facts, concepts, principle,
hypothesis, theory
Ma’am Hildalyn Rebucas gave and define the
concepts of poem as well as its types: sonnet,
haiku, limerick, narrative, epic, couplet, free
verse, etc. She also elaborated the difference
among these types of poem.

Ma’am Rebucas gave sample poems (written

Knowledge) – e.g. mental skills such as
correct type in accordance with its rhyme,
writing a paragraph
number of lines and syllables. One example
that Ma’am Rebucas gave them was:
“An old silent pond...
A frog jumps into the pond,
splash! Silence again.”

A student named Carla correctly identified the

poem as a Haiku containing a 5-7-5 syllables.

Bloom’s Domain of Learning Activities:

Domain of Learning

3. Psychomotor - skills As part of the activity, Ma’am Rebucas tasked

her students to create their short own poem
following haiku type (5-7-5 syllables) after
such, she let them present it in front of the
class. The students presented their outputs
amazingly as Ma’am Rebucas said.

4. Affective – values, attitudes As an ending activity, Ma’am Rebucas asked

her students “What is the importance of poem
in our lives?”

My Analysis:

1. Were the lessons focused on information / cognitive domain only or mental

procedures only or psychomotor procedures / physical skills only? Or were the
lessons combinations of two or three? Explain your answer.

Answer:
The lessons being observed were combinations of two or three domains. The
combined applications of such domains were important in developing an effective
learning environment. Students are much more eager to learn when they are
involved into activities. This idea was the so-called “learning-by-doing” which is very
important in every classroom setting. For example, Ma’am Rebucas explained about
the poems and its concepts and types and gave some examples (cognitive), after
such, the students were tasked to make one poem on their own (psychomotor).

FIELD STUDY 2 – Experiencing the Teaching – Learning Process

2. Were the lessons focused on cognitive content only or psychomotor content only or
affective content only? Or were the lessons combinations of two or three? Explain
your answer.

Answer:
The lessons were a combination of mostly cognitive content and psychomotor
content as proven by the resource teachers explaining and giving information to
students about a certain topic. The students also contributed in the entire learning
duration by doing the activities given by their teachers. They also gave inputs to the
topics by citing some examples based on their own experiences. At some point
especially on the last part of the class, the affective domain occurred like explaining
and valuing the essence of the topic.

3. What was the effect on learning when teaching was focused on only one domain?

Answer:
When teaching is only focused on only one domain, most probably there would be a
low percentage of comprehension. It would also be make the teaching less
meaningful and effective. The lesson objectives or the intended learning outcomes
might not be achieved with only one learning domain being focused. In short, it will
be a “boring” class for students and worst, they will not listen at all.

4. Is it really possible to teach only in one domain like affective only or cognitive only or
psychomotor only? Or based on Kendall’s and Marzano’s taxonomy, information
only or mental procedures only or psychomotor procedures only? Explain your
answer.

Answer:
Yes, it is possible to teach with only one domain. For example, the teacher only
focused on the cognitive domain, yes, the students could learn from the topic from
they might just forget t after because they were not involved in any activity. As I have
stated above, learning could be more meaningful if all the domains of learning where
utilized.

FIELD STUDY 2 – Experiencing the Teaching – Learning Process

5. Do Kendall’s and Marzano’s knowledge taxonomy and Bloom’s taxonomy of learning
activities contradict each other? Explain your answer.

Answer:
Kendall’s and Marzano’s knowledge taxonomy and Bloom’s taxonomy of learning
did not contradict with each othe. Talking about the purpose and objective of these
taxonomies, both were aimed at helping learners learn best. These taxonomies
focused on the learners’ (learner-centered) development and progress. With these
taxonomies, a conducive and a better learning environment will most likely be
developed.

My Reflections

Based on your observations in class and on your understanding of the

domains of leaning activities from Bloom, Kendall and Marzano, how can you
make your teaching-learning activity more meaningful and more relevant? Is
lesson more relevant when you teach in the cognitive domain combined with the
affective or psychomotor combined with the affective?

Answer:
Based on my observations, in order to create a more meaningful and more
relevant teaching-learning activity, a teacher must not just utilize one domain of
knowledge or learning but should be a combination. Doing so would create
interest and eagerness from students to learn and cooperate to the class. Also, in
this way, the teacher can involve his/her students into lesson-related activities.
Learning should not only be from the teachers but from the students as well.
Learning is more comprehensive and productive when students can relate their
learning into their day-to-day lives.

Integrating Theory and Practice:

Direction: Read the situation then answer the questions.

Teacher Mila taught the parts of a microscope, demonstrated how to focus t under
the low power objective, then asked 3 students to try to focus it with her gui dance as
the class looked on. She asked the class if the 3 students did focus the microscope
correctly and ended her lesson citing the “don’ts” and explaining the “why’s” behind
the “don’ts” in focusing the microscope. Before she did all these, she asked the class
if it is / is not important for them to learn how to focus the microscope.

1. Based on Kendall’s and Marzano’s new taxonomy, in what domains was Teacher
Mila’s lesson?

I. Information (Declarative Knowledge)

II. Mental Procedures (Procedural Knowledge)
III. Psychomotor Procedure (Physical Skills)

A. I and II C. II and III

B. II only D. I, II and III

2. Which part of Teacher Mila’s lesson consists of mental procedure (procedural

knowledge)?

I. Information (Declarative Knowledge)

II. Mental Procedures (Procedural Knowledge)
III. Psychomotor Procedure (Physical Skills)

A. I only C. II only
B. I, II and III D. I and II

3. Based on Bloom’s taxonomy, which part of Teacher Mila’s lesson is in the

psychomotor domain?
A. The 3 pupils focusing the microscope
B. The pupils listening to the “don’ts” in focusing the microscope
C. Asking the class if it is important to learn how to focus the microscope
D. Explain the “why’s” behind the “don’ts”

FIELD STUDY 2 – Experiencing the Teaching – Learning Process

4. If Teacher Mila’s lesson objective / intended learning outcome is “to focus the
microscope correctly”, could she have just shown the class how to do it without
explaining the parts of the microscope and their corresponding functions?

A. No
B. Yes, 21st century students learn skill very fast.
C. Yes, but risky.
D. No, it is basic for students to know the function of each part. This
guides the students on how to focus the microscope.

5. If explaining and demonstrating are necessary for Teacher Mila to realize her
lesson objective / intended learning outcome, what does this imply on lesson
planning and development for whole and meaningful learning.

A. Integrate the domains of learning activities.

B. You make lesson focus only information.
C. Plan a lesson that is exclusively for skill or for information.
D. Always touch the affective domain of learning.

6. Which part of Teacher Mila’s lesson is in the affective domain?

A. Asking the students if learning to focus the microscope is important

B. The “don’ts” in focusing the microscope
C. Teacher Mila demonstrating to the class first how to focus the
microscope before asking the 3 to focus the same in order to avoid
accident
D. Explaining the “why’s” behind the “don’ts” in microscope focusing
