- Abstract
In 1998 Marzano proposed a taxonomy of learning that integrated three domains or systems: the self system, which involves student motivation; the metacognitive system, involving goal setting and planning; and the cognitive system, required to complete the task at hand. Although extant for 20 years, a paucity of studies have utilized this taxonomy, even though employing Marzano's taxonomy as a framework is particularly appropriate for studies involving student affect. This study provides an exemplar of the use of Marzano's taxonomy as a framework to investigate the impact of a classroom intervention using active and social strategies to enhance student participation. Further, this paper provides suggestions for employing Marzano's taxonomy in other areas for practising teachers, teacher educators, and educational researchers.
