=**Bloom's as a learning process.** =

Bloom's Taxonomy in its various forms represents the process of learning. It has been simplified in some case like the **Three Story Intellect** (Oliver Wendell Holmes and Art Costa), but it still essentially represents how we learn.

Before we can **understand** a concept we have to **remember** it Before we can **apply** the concept we must **understand** it Before we **analyse** it we must be able to **apply** it Before we can **evaluate** its impact we must have **analysed** it Before we can **create** we must have **remembered, understood, applied, analysed,** and **evaluated**.
