I wasn’t aware of this until a few months ago or so, but Bloom’s taxonomy helped me a lot while writing articles to think about what I want to write in a more methodical way, and also how to structure articles in a way that is more succinct and up-to the point.

I’m trying to diversify my techniques. Over the years I’ve ran a number of “brown bag” sessions but following on from the three Most events that I was fortunate enough to attend, I’ve tried making activities out of them.

For one on one it can depend on time available, whether I tell, show or explain.

I’m hoping that I can introduce longer sessions for my colleagues next year and definitely want to focus more on learning outcomes and structuring the sessions as if I was writing a lesson plan.
