CORRELATION BETWEEN BLOOM’S TAXONOMY AND LESSON FRAMEWORKS IN THE CONTEXT OF BACHELORS OF PHILOLOGY (TRANSLATION) TRAINING

Abstract

The focus of this research is to analyse the correlation between Bloom’s taxonomy and lesson frameworks (traditional PPP, TTT, ESA compared to the innovative ESCAPE model) and to evaluate the effectiveness of the latter for developing the professional competencies of future bachelor’s degree philologists. Bloom’s taxonomy is considered a conceptual model that describes the hierarchy of cognitive processes. At the same time, lesson frameworks serve as a tool for organising learning and developing students’ thinking skills. The research methodology is based on comparative and analytical approaches to identify touchpoints between Bloom’s taxonomy and lesson frameworks, using elements of pedagogical modelling to adapt the ESCAPE model to the conditions of higher education, as well as generalising the practical experience of applying these approaches in teaching philological and translation studies disciplines. The relevance of the research lies in the need to combine theoretical models of cognitive development with practical methodological tools in the training of future bachelor’s degree translators. The article analyses how the cognitive levels of Bloom’s taxonomy can be systematically reflected in the stages of traditional (PPP, ESA) and communicative/task-based (TTT, TBL) lesson frameworks. The ESCAPE model is considered a modern approach to language teaching that focuses on communication, technology use, and critical thinking development. Integrating Bloom’s taxonomy into the ESCAPE model improves the balance between formal and content-oriented tasks in the training of translators and philologists at the bachelor’s level, contributing to the development of higher-level cognitive skills, in particular analysis, evaluation, and creativity in translation tasks. Using an integrated approach ensures a more consistent, engaging, and effective learning process compared to the separate application of lesson structures or Bloom’s taxonomy.
