On Relevance Quality, relevant content can't be spotted by an
algorithm. You can't subscribe to it. You need people - actual
human beings - to create or curate it. Kristina Halvorson, Content

Rigor and Relevance Blooms Taxonomy First, there is a continuum
of knowledge that describes the increasingly complex ways in which
we think. The Knowledge Taxonomy is based on the six levels of
Blooms Taxonomy: (1) awareness (2) comprehension (3) application
(4) analysis (5) synthesis (6) evaluation Application Model The
second continuum, created by Dr. Willard R. Daggett, is known as
the Application Model. The five levels of this action continuum
are: (1) knowledge in one discipline (2) apply in discipline (3)
apply across disciplines (4) apply to real-world predictable
situations (5) apply to real-world unpredictable situations
