Good use of the "new" taxonomy.
One minor correction, however. Bloom's taxonomy is called that because his name is listed first as the one who headed the committee. And yes, they did get around to doing the Affective domain, but not the Psychomotor domain.
It is unfortunate that few IDs pay attention to the Affective domain because it provides a means to quantify seeming intangibles like motivation and whether or not training "sticks" over the long term.

I agree. I have always found that i learn better when i am motivated by emotion. (i.e. fear of failure, desire to be the best, concern over hurting others, etc.) I found that if you can supply an emotional "hook" to a course, it always makes the content stick with the learner.
