SOLO TAXONOMY(after Biggs and Collis 1982)

Prestructural

What does it mean?Really there’s not much there.

For example:

Prestructural

What do you know

about Tennis?

Err….. What?

?

Unistructural

DefineIdentifyDo simple procedure

What does it mean?There’s one idea there.

For example:

What do you know

about Tennis?

Err….. You

need a racket

Multistructural

DefineDescribeListDo algorithmCombine

What does it mean?There are a number of ideas.

For example:

What do you know

about Tennis?

It’s a game played

between two people where you hit a ball over a net, keeping it

within certain boundaries

Relational

Compare/contrastExplain causesSequenceClassifyAnalysePart/wholeRelateAnalogyApplyFormulate questions

What does it mean?There are a number of ideas and links are be made between

these ideas

For example:

What do you know about

Tennis?

It’s a game of skill played between two people. The idea is to out manoeuvre your opponent by hitting the ball over the net in such a way as to force

them to make a mistake. Whether it is their failure to return the shot or they

miss the ball.

Extended abstract

EvaluateTheoriseGeneralisePredictCreateImagineHypothesiseReflect

What does it mean?There is a range of ideas which are linked together plus some

knew or extended thinking is added.

For example:

What do you know about

Tennis?

It’s a game of skill played between two people. The idea is to out manoeuvre your opponent by hitting the ball over the net in such a way as to force

them to make a mistake. Whether it is their failure to return the shot or they

miss the ball.If you knew each players skill level

with regard to putting spin on the ball, accuracy and

speed of their serve, you could

predict the outcome of each

match
