Abstract:

This paper uses literature analysis method to oppugn the views of articles published by Professor Li Yi and other scholars. Meanwhile, it discusses the true meaning about educational objectives taxonomy. First of all, it quotes three organizational principles called “pedagogical principle, logical principle and psychological principle”, and emphasizes the precise reason for the weakness of Bloom’s taxonomy of educational objectives (ver.1956) is that the psychological principle can not play a sufficient role in the pedagogical issue. This paper also points out that physiological principle is a missing principle of Bloom’s taxonomy of educational objectives (ver.1956) because a rigorous educational objectives classification doctrine must follow physiological principle, logical principle and psychological principle. Secondly, it analyzes the reasons why levels and categories are missing from subject-oriented education objectives description model. Finally, it disproves the viewpoints of “Criticism on Bloom’s Taxonomy of Educational Objectives”, and calls for a rigorous academic attitude.

Key words: organization principles about educational objectives taxonomy, Bloom’s taxonomy of educational objectives, Piaget’s theory, subject-oriented education objectives description model
