CoCintheane,
This is a great approach. If implemented properly, the learning taxonomy can provide the students with a sensible outlook to their learning. Looking at it from the macro-level, will allow them to understand the instructor's sequencing of assignments and reasoning for the selected course content.

I use learning taxonomy to structure goals and objectives. The goals move from knowledge to synthesis. I know that when a student can master multiple pieces of knowledge to solve a complex problem, they have met that course objective.
I will use Bloom to align my terminology with my students so they can see why and how I have created their assessments as I have. I will use the Learning Taxonomy to stay organized and ensure that I am giving my students their money's worth. I want to make sure that my students do not just feel that I am only giving them busy work with no substance for their college education.
I use questioning to ensure they are understanding the material, if I don't get the responses I'm looking for, I know its not time yet to move on, and will explain things further. In lab they have a chance to apply what is learned in the classroom, and before they are finished with a lab activity I "quiz" them about the lab work they completed, in order to prove they can apply the knowledge they received from both the class and lab.
To reach the application stage and beyond into the higher levels of Bloom, use PBL strategies and small group work for some assignments. This works in both a classroom and a lab environment, as in a lab the students can work as a team to achieve the desired hands-on result.
Using taxonomy can start with common terms to create an understand on how to identify a component, such as an electrical component, or how to use a meter to measure the component. Through hands on and testing the student with specific values we can determine if they are measuring it correctly and are ready for more complicated excercise.
The Taxonomy of Learning within the technical college setting is extremely important. The student population at the institution where I work includes the average age of 25-40yrs and the students do not have a lot of experience being in the classroom. Most of the students it is their first attempt at college. For various reasons the students may have the inner motivation to succeed and others may need a bit of "coaching" or encouragement from the instructor in order to get comfortable within the classroom setting.
Factual Knowledge, Conceptual Knowledge, Procedural Knowledge, and Metacognitive Knowledge are important means for making a lesson plan. However, the one that is most important is factual knowledge and procedural knowledge. The students are in a technical setting and they need information based on facts as well as opportunities to complete assignments that place them in a surreal work environment that they will encounter once in the workforce.
This company should develop a class about Bloom's Taxonomy. There is obviously great interest in it, and I know I would take it.
I have not use it too, but will see about it.
I agree you have control over how you present and what you will present.

Under ideal circumstances the overall objective iin planning should be to have students reach the highest levels of thinking possible. Sometimes this can be challenging when you are delivering material that is foundational and knowlege based that can be used later for higher level critical thinking.
Challenging the students in the class to see if they can explain what they have learned in the course used rarely
Following student progress and proper assessments will be the key to knowing when students have comprehended the information and are ready for the next level.
I use the Taxonomy all of the time to write measureable objectives. As an accreditation site visitor, this is one of the major things we evaluate in the curriculum of the program. Once you start using the Taxonomy, it is extremely useful in writing measureable objectives.
Going forward, I will be more focused on being consistent with the A, B, C, D. I feel that this may be something for me to improve upon in my lesson plans. Ultimately, assist me to help the students achieve learning goals.
When we make lesson plan knowing taxonomy is very important because the level of understandig and method of learning may be different in different students. We can plan accoring to the needs of the class
