Taxonomy in the Affective Domain

A.

The affective domain (Krathwohl, Bloom, Masia,1973) includes the manner in which we deal with things emotionally, such as feelings, values, appreciation, enthusiasms, motivations, and attitudes. The five major categories are listed from the simplest behavior to the most complex.

Responding to Phenomena: Active

Participates in class discussions. Gives a presentation. Questions new ideals, concepts, models, etc. in order to fully understand them. Know the safety rules and practices them.

Affective Learning Competencies

B.

  • skills, knowledge, and attitudes which are important for a teacher’s successful dealing with affective domain behaviors of exceptional students.

    • are related to student learning in the areas of motivating, rewarding for correct responses and adaptive behavior, involving students’ interest and attention in learning activities and school, managing crisis behaviors, perceiving needs and experiences which students exhibit during learning and socialization activities and demonstrating modelling optional ways of responding to stress and solving problems.

However, the teachers can accurately observe

Surveys and Questionnaires

there are two types of using survey and questionnaires: the constructed response, in which it is straightforward approach asking the students about their af ect by responding to simple statement of question; the selected-response, in which students can choose from options and this assures anonymity.

  • helps students understand the learning target/outcomes and to focus students’ at ention to performance.
  • gives feedback to students as far as their

strengths and weaknesses with respect to the targets to which they remeasured. Students not only learn the standards but also may internalize the set standards.

  • help to show each student’s growth and

progress.

  • tries to assess an individual’s reaction to specific words, ideas or concepts in terms of ratings on bipolar scales defined with contrasting adjectives at each end.
  • uses adjective pairs that provide anchors for

feelings or beliefs that are opposite in direction and intensity. Students would place a check between each pair of adjectives that describes positive or negative aspects of the trait.
