In the 1950's Benjamin Bloom developed a pyramid construction to analyze the essence of learning. He stated learning could be compartmentalized into 7 subordinate components the higher of which could not be reached with out the complete mastery the lower. The "new" pyramid reads this way.
Remembering - can the student recall the information?
Understanding - can the student explain the ideas or concepts?
Applying - can the student use the information in a new way?
Analyzing - can the student distinguish between parts?
Evaluating - can the student justify a stand or position?
Creating - can the student create a new product or point of view?
The following illustration connects Web 2.0 and Blooms Taxonomy.

Mary,
Did you grab this from my blog or did we both hit on the same piece from Andrew Church? I think this should be part of one of the IT courses as a resource.
