2. Software Types by their Cognitive Demand (generalized for typical uses) Web sites, CD-ROMs Drill and practice or other tutorial software Tool software such as spreadsheets, databases, word processing, concept mapping, etc. Knowledge, Comprehension Knowledge, Comprehension, Application Application, Analysis, Synthesis, Evaluation

3. Classroom Level 2. Technology use provides added value to teaching and learning. For Teaching adding value might mean individualizing instruction or making it more responsive to students questions and interests, or providing additional resources of information so instruction is more real world, authentic or current. For Learning adding value might mean accessing data, processing information or communicating knowledge that without technology would be impossible or less viable to do.
