• Now-a-days in the professional community of teachers, broad discussions on efficiency of teaching are led. At the same time teacher trainees are more and more also involved into these discussions, a key point of which are the teachers’ skills to choose appropriate education strategies to develop students’ higher order thinking, i.e. thinking at a level that is higher than remembering, memorizing and understanding facts. These discussions follow Bloom’s taxonomy known as the taxonomy of educational objectives. A question still remains, to what extent is the theory incorporated in teacher trainee practical training and as well to what extent this theory is used and applied in the educational and teaching practice itself. The paper presents some results of research focused on the current state of implementation of development strategies of higher order thinking in pre-gradual preparation of teacher trainees majoring in technical subjects teaching.
