| Learner is able to recite rule,
"jingle", poem, or site word. |
Learner knows to apply rule to a set
of math problems given by the teacher for this particular unit. |
Learner can choose from a variety of
rules and understands which rule is appropriate to solve specific problems. |
The learner discovers that previously
understood concepts can be applied to new situations. |
The learner is able to formulate
and/or rediscover concepts from observation or experiences, even if the memorized rule has
been forgotten. The learner can apply global concepts between systems and create new
products or processes. |
