Testing my first post... I chose the name "Cognitive Insight" for this blog after some deep thinking. My other options included "Learning tree" and "Concrete Experience".
BTW, below is an excerpt about the learning process.
Bloom's Taxonomy divides the learning process into a six-level hierarchy, where knowledge is the lowest order of cognition and evaluation is the highest:
- Knowledge is the memory of previously-learnt materials such as facts, terms, basic concepts and answers.
- Comprehension is the understanding of facts and ideas by organization, comparison, translation, interpretation, and description.
- Application is the use of new knowledge to solve problems.
- Analysis is the examination and division of information into parts by identifying motives or causes. A person can analyze by making inferences and finding evidence to support generalizations.
- Synthesis is the compilation of information in a new way by combining elements into pattern or proposing alternative solutions.
- Evaluation is the presentation and defense of opinions by making judgments about information, validity of ideas or quality of work based on a set of criteria.
