LOTS to HOTS<br />
2.1<br />
B<br />
loom’s <strong>taxonomy</strong> categorizes thinking skills and objectives into<br />
lower order thinking skills and higher order thinking skills - or LOTS<br />
and HOTS<br />
Bloom describes each category as a gerund. They are arranged in increasing<br />
order, from lower order to higher order. You can not understand a concept if<br />
you do not first remember it, similarly you can not apply knowledge and<br />
concepts if you do not understand them. It is a continuum from Lower Order<br />
Thinking Skills (LOTS) to Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS).<br />
As educators we are promoting LOTS as well as HOTS - within our students<br />
through the use of a variety of teaching techniques.<br />
