Editing Bloom's taxonomy (section)

==History==
The publication of ''Taxonomy of Educational Objectives'' followed a series of conferences from 1949 to 1953, which were designed to improve communication between educators on the design of curricula and examinations.{{sfn|Bloom et al.|1956|p=4|ps=: "The idea for this classification system was formed at an informal meeting of college examiners attending the 1948 American Psychological Association Convention in Boston. At this meeting, interest was expressed in a theoretical framework which could be used to facilitate communication among examiners.}} The models were named after [[Benjamin Bloom]], who chaired the committee of educators that devised the taxonomy. He also edited the first volume of the standard text, ''Taxonomy of Educational Objectives: The Classification of Educational Goals''.<ref name="bloom1956">{{cite book |last1=Bloom |first1=B.
