Introduction

Bloom's Taxonomy helps standardize how learning objectives and course measures are categorized across cognitive levels.

In Exxat Prism, you can configure a canonical Bloom's Taxonomy setup and use Leo-AI powered suggestions to automatically identify and map the appropriate taxonomy level for course measures.

This reduces manual effort, improves consistency, and supports more accurate curriculum mapping.

You can set up Bloom’s Taxonomy once and use it across your curriculum. Once configured, Bloom’s Taxonomy can be used during course measure mapping with AI-assisted suggestions.

Leo-AI Suggestions Logic

• Leo-AI looks at the action verbs in your measure

• It matches them to Bloom’s levels using predefined rules

If multiple verbs are present:

• Leo-AI suggests the highest-level skill

Suggestions will appear only if:

• Bloom’s Taxonomy is already set up in your system

• It is enabled as a mappable attribute

If either of these is missing, you won’t see any suggestions.

Suggestions are automatically refreshed whenever you edit the course measure text, clone a curriculum, or update the Bloom’s Taxonomy setup.

Suggestions are applied only when you choose them. Any alternate suggestions remain available in case you want to switch later.

Key Things to Remember

• Suggestions are just helpful recommendations, not automatic changes

• You are always in control of what gets mapped

• Leo tracks suggestions in the background, but never applies them without your action

Configure Bloom's Taxonomy

1. Login to Exxat Prism using your university credentials. 

2. From the Exxat Prism Dashboard or the Hamburger menu, go to Curriculum Mapping. 
   

3. Navigate to: Attributes → Course and Measure Attributes

4. On the top-right of the page, click Configure Bloom’s Taxonomy.
   

5. A configuration drawer opens with:

   • Bloom’s domains: Cognitive, Affective, Psychomotor

   • Levels (e.g., Remember, Understand, Apply, Analyze, Evaluate, Create)

6. Review the Bloom's domains and levels

7. Click Save
   The setup will be saved as Bloom’s Taxonomy

Add Bloom's Taxonomy 

You can add Bloom's  Taxonomy from the Course while mapping the course or when you add or edit a course measure. 

Note: You can add Bloom’s Taxonomy only if it has been configured in the curriculum.

Add Bloom's Taxonomy  On the Course Mapping Page

1. Login to Exxat Prism using your University credentials. 

2. From the Exxat Prism Dashboard or the Hamburger menu, go to Curriculum Mapping. 
   

3. Navigate to the curriculum and click the Mapping icon for the course. 
   

4. Select a course measure from the list.
   Leo-AI reads the measure (especially the action words like analyze, apply, etc.)

5. Click the suggestion to apply the Bloom's Taxonomy level as an attribute. 
   
   Bloom's Taxonomy is applied successfully.

Add Bloom's Taxonomy on the Course Details Page

1. Login to Exxat Prism using your University credentials. 

2. From the Exxat Prism Dashboard or the Hamburger menu, go to Courses.
   

3. Click on the course offering to open the Course Details page.
   

4. In the Course Details page navigate to the Measures menu, and click to expand the Course Learning Objectives section.
   

5. You can add a Bloom’s Taxonomy level in two ways:

   • From the Course Measure Details section on the right.

     1. Select the course measure or learning objective where you want to add a Bloom’s Taxonomy level.

     2. In the Details section on the right, you will see Leo-AI suggest the matching or applicable Bloom's Taxonomy. 

     3. Click on the suggestion to add as an attribute. 
        
        Bloom's Taxonomy is added successfully. 
        
        You can add multiple Bloom’s Taxonomy levels in the same way, as needed.

   • While adding or editing a learning objective

     1. To add a new learning objective, click Add Course Learning Objective button. or
        Click the Edit icon next to the existing learning objective. 
        

     2. In the Add / Edit Course Learning Objectives drawer, scroll down to Bloom's Taxonomy drop-down. 

     3. Next to the  Bloom's Taxonomy label, you will see the Leo-AI suggest the matching or applicable Bloom's Taxonomy. 

     4. Click on the suggestion to add as an attribute. 

     5. Click Save.
        
        Bloom's Taxonomy is added successfully. You can add multiple Bloom’s Taxonomy levels in the same way, as needed.

Edit Bloom's Taxonomy

1. Login to Exxat Prism using your University credentials. 

2. From the Exxat Prism Dashboard or the Hamburger menu, go to Courses.
   

3. Click on the course offering to open the Course Details page.
   

4. In the Course Details page navigate to the Measures menu, and click to expand the Course Learning Objectives section.
   

5. Click the Edit icon next to the existing learning objective. 
   

6. In the Edit Course Learning Objectives drawer, scroll down to Bloom's Taxonomy drop-down. 

7. Use the checkbox to map or unmap the Bloom’s Taxonomy level.

8. Click Save. 
   
   Course Measures and Bloom's Taxonomy is updated successfully.

• If you unmap a Bloom’s Taxonomy level, suggestions will appear again. 

• If you delete the measure, all associated mappings are removed and suggestions will no longer be shown.
