Bloom’s Taxonomy Simplified for CBSE Teachers: A Gentle Guide to Thoughtful, Meaningful Classroom Practice

About the Book

Bloom’s Taxonomy Simplified for CBSE Teachers is a compassionate, clarity-driven guide created for educators who strive to move beyond rote learning and towards meaningful, thoughtful classroom practice. Written in fifty gentle yet substantial chapters, the book demystifies Bloom’s Taxonomy and translates it into simple, actionable strategies for everyday teaching across subjects and grade levels.
With a tone that is both aesthetic and practical, the book helps teachers design better questions, deepen student thinking, foster creativity, build communication and collaboration, manage behaviour with empathy, and nurture their own well-being. Each chapter offers illustrations, classroom examples, and insights rooted in the realities of Indian schools, making theory accessible without diluting its essence.
Above all, this book honours the teacher as a thinker, guide, and craftsman of learning. It invites educators to embrace teaching as both an art and a responsibility—where simplicity coexists with wisdom, and where every classroom becomes a place where thinking and learning truly bloom.

About the Author

Dr. Anil Kumar Pankajakshan is an educator whose mind refuses to be confined to a single discipline. His writing genre is eclectic—rare among contemporary authors—and his intellectual appetite stretches far beyond the boundaries of conventional scholarship. He moves with ease between literature, psychology, pedagogy, philosophy, film music, and the craft of screenwriting, embodying a uncommon versatility that gives his work both depth and soul.
A university academic and a school educator, a psychologist and a storyteller, a madly voracious reader and a lifelong learner, he brings to his writing a blend of rigour and intuition rarely found in a single author. His love for Indian film music, his fascination for film scripts, and his sensitivity to human emotion infuse his prose with an aesthetic warmth that resonates across audiences.
Across decades of teaching, he has guided students, mentored teachers, shaped departments, and contributed generously to academic discourse. He has authored books across genres and published papers across disciplines, building a body of work that reflects both scholarly seriousness and creative spontaneity.
Above all, he writes with a gentle conviction—that teaching is an art of the heart as much as it is a science of the mind, and that learning must always remain a journey of wonder. This book, like its author, transcends the ordinary and invites every teacher to do the same.
