Abstract
Human cognition can be organised into six hierarchical levels, each building upon the last: Remember, Understand, Apply, Analyze, Evaluate, and Create. Most instruction today targets only the lower two tiers of recall and comprehension, leaving the higher faculties of synthesis and original creation largely unpractised.
