June 24, 2025 (Bowling Green, KY) – This study, titled Can AI Generate Questions Aligned with Bloom's Taxonomy? A Framework for Gifted Education to Support Teachers, explores the capability of artificial intelligence tools to generate questions aligned with Bloom's Revised Taxonomy to support educators. Fifteen gifted education experts evaluated the AI- and human-generated questions for alignment with Bloom's Taxonomy. Findings show that AI-generated questions align well with lower-order cognitive tasks and remain consistent across subjects.
When asked for his thoughts on the publication, Tyler Clark, Ed.D. stated, “Our findings suggest promise with using AI to support teachers with differentiating instruction using Bloom’s taxonomy. We must look at AI as a tool to support teachers and not replace their professional expertise.”
Although results indicated that AI can assist educators in reducing workload and improving differentiated instruction by generating questions aligned with Bloom's Taxonomy, professional development remains essential for supporting educators.
