Cognitive
opportunities
Remember: Application
allows students to exhibit
memory of previously
learned materials by
recalling facts, terms, basic
concepts and answers to
describe; name; find; list;
tell.
Understand: Application
allows students to
demonstrate understanding
of facts and ideas and
explain; compare; discuss,
predict, translate, outline,
and restate.
Apply: Application allows
students to use new
knowledge and solve
problems to new situations
by applying acquired
knowledge, facts,
techniques and rules in a
different way to show;
complete; use; examine;
illustrate; classify; and
solve.
Analyse: Application allows
students to examine and
break information into parts
by identifying motives or
causes; make inferences
and find evidence to support
generalisations; and
compare; examine; explain;
identify; categorise;
contrast; and investigate.
Evaluate: Application
allows students to present
and defend opinions by
making judgments about
information, validity of ideas
or quality of work based on
a set of criteria to justify;
assess; prioritise;
recommend; rate; decide;
and choose.
Create: Application allows
students to plan; invent;
compose; design; construct;
imagine.
Level of

substitute, with functional
improvement.
Modification: Technology
allows for significant task
redesign.
Redefinition: Technology
allows for the creation of
new tasks, previously
inconceivable.
