Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

This research explores the application of Bloom's taxonomy as a tool to enhance students' argumentation skills in academic writing. The professional development goal focuses on developing students' academic writing skills through the strategic implementation of Bloom's taxonomy strategies, specifically analysis, synthesis, and evaluation. The study aims to improve students' academic essay argumentation by cultivating higher-order thinking skills. The research is prompted by the identified knowledge gap in students' writing skills, including low argumentative writing, lack of high-order thinking skills, and insufficient interdisciplinary integration. The action research plan addresses these gaps and proposes new approaches to enhance students' academic essay writing skills.
