Bloom's Taxonomy and It’s Application in USIM's iNaQ Model

The integration of religious sciences (Naqli) with social and physical sciences (Aqli) manifests the uniqueness of education system in Universiti Sains Islam Malaysia (USIM). This model of teaching and learning, known as iNaQ, is however is still incomplete, thus leaving rooms for improvisation. The aspect of a standardised measurement and method of evaluation have become one of the vital impediment that ought to be enhanced. Thus, this study aims to improve the iNaQ model by applying and integrating Bloom's taxonomy of learning that will establish and produce a domain-based learning outcome. The present research utilises a qualitative approach in which textual analysis is applied as the main instruments of examination. The samples used are extracted from related documents. As a result, the application of Bloom's learning taxonomy in USIM's iNaQ Model creates clear learning outcomes for each levels of process. This finding provides a solution to the non-uniformity in the implementation and evaluation of courses in USIM due to the lack of clear iNaQ learning outcomes.
