Abstract

This article describes how a small group of secondary pre-service mathematics teachers make sense of
the Revised Bloom’s Taxonomy Table during a teaching methods course. Two questions are explored: (1)
how well do secondary pre-service mathematics teachers understand and use the Taxonomy Table to
classify learning objectives? and (2) what are secondary pre-service mathematics teachers’s opinions
about the usefulness of the Taxonomy Table? Findings suggest that with some support, the pre-service
teachers are able to understand and use the Taxonomy Table to classify and scrutinize the learning
objectives. Findings also support the use of the Taxonomy Table to open up educational discussions
beyond the traditional use of the Taxonomy Table.
