Reimagining Cognitive Engagement with AI in the Classroom

Welcome to the future of education! In this interactive session, we’ll explore how Bloom’s Taxonomy can serve as both a guide and a launchpad for integrating artificial intelligence into classroom practice. Participants will briefly revisit Bloom’s foundational framework and discover how today’s AI tools can support student learning at each cognitive level from remembering to creating. But this session doesn’t stop there. We’ll also introduce new levels of cognitive engagement made possible by AI, such as: Collaborative Intelligence – where humans and machines co-think through complex problems in group settings Metacognitive Enhancement – where AI helps students reflect on their own thinking, set goals, and monitor progress Through real-world examples and group discussion, attendees will explore how AI can push the boundaries of traditional learning taxonomies and open up possibilities for deeper, more personalized cognitive growth. You’ll leave with practical strategies, a conceptual framework, and a clearer vision of how to elevate both instruction and assessment using AI grounded in purposeful pedagogy.
