Bloom's Digital Taxonomy

I encourage students to use higher order thinking skills (HOTS) by editing work, use advanced searches, collaborating with others, designing and publishing. A way I can encourage students to focus less on lower order thinking skills (LOTS) is to avoid simple google searching. This would involve a better focus on implementing advanced searches. Also, a way to use HOTS in the classroom is to have student buddies around the world the students communicate with via Skyping vs. email.
