In this episode Tony and Lawrence dive into the world of Bloom’s Taxonomy — but with a twist....

You’ve probably seen learning outcomes like “Students will understand…” or “Learners will evaluate…”. But in the world of a simulation, do those verbs actually mean anything?

Join us as we explore:
• Why traditional Bloom’s verbs fall short in simulation and clinical training
• The real problems with vague or passive learning outcomes
• A revised taxonomy of simulation-friendly verbs
• How to avoid educational jargon that confuses more than it clarifies

This episode is packed with practical examples, verbal rants (the good kind), and tips for writing learning objectives that are real, measurable, and meaningful.
