Student self-assessment in a programming course using bloom's revised taxonomy
Satu Alaoutinen, Kari Smolander · 2010
This study presents a simple student self-assessment tool that can be used to motivate learning and to follow a student's progress. The tool is a survey questionnaire that uses Bloom's Revised Taxonomy as the base for its scale. The results show that students can place their knowledge along the taxonomy-based scale quite well, and they feel that it could help their learning. It also provides the teacher with a more objective basis for measuring the level of knowledge gained than the general scales. The scale is designed for a programming course, but with modifications it can be used in other classes too.
