Critical and Creative Thinking - Bloom's Taxonomy
What are critical thinking and creative thinking? What's Bloom's taxonomy and how is it helpful in project planning? How are the domains of learning reflected in technology-rich projects?
Benjamin Bloom (1956) developed a classification of levels of intellectual behavior in learning. This taxonomy contained three overlapping domains: the cognitive, psychomotor, and affective. Within the cognitive domain, he identified six levels: knowledge, comprehension, application, analysis, synthesis, and evaluation. These domains and levels are still useful today as you develop the critical thinking skills of your students. Critical thinking involves logical thinking and reasoning including skills such as comparison, classification, sequencing, cause/effect, patterning, webbing, analogies, deductive and inductive reasoning, forecasting, planning, hyphothesizing, and critquing.

Classification / Taxonomy of Cetaceans
Whales, dolphins and porpoises belong to the order Cetacea. The following taxonomy provides the most complete and up-to-date* reference in terms of current research in the field of cetacean taxonomy. The list provides common (vernacular) names, scientific names and the names for subspecies where these have been described. A number of the subspecies below have not yet been named, and in such cases these are simply referred to as subsp. in the list. The common names assigned for these animals are based upon their distribution. The links below provide a detailed fact file for those cetacean species most commonly found in the Moray Firth and North Sea. Order CETACEA (85 species)
Suborder MYSTICETI. The Baleen (Moustached) Whales (14 species)
The baleen whales are filter feeders which sieve food from the seawater with baleen; hair-fringed plates made from keratin (the same material as fingernails are made from). The minke whale is the most common of the baleen whales in the Moray Firth, although other species have been recorded in these waters including the fin whale, Sei whale and, for the first time in 2001, the humpback whale.

Read related articles on Internet economics This paper attempts to clarify terminology discussing the interface between commerce and the Internet. It is also an empirically derived classification system or taxonomy of existing Internet business models. This taxonomy has two main branches - transplanted real-world business models and native Internet business models. The latter part of the paper discusses the role of business, governments, regulation and ideology in the development of I-Commerce and makes some cautious speculations regarding its future.

Conclusion: Internet Imperialism

There are several terms used to describe business that takes place on the Internet. These include Electronic Commerce (E-Commerce) the Information Economy the Online Economy and Internet Commerce . Literal interpretations of these terms denote particular domains of activity and little rigour is applied to their application. As the terms Electronic Commerce (E-Commerce) the Information Economy , and the Online Economy denote activities not limited to the Internet the term Internet Commerce (or I-Commerce ) will be used in this document to denote commercial activities associated with the Internet. The term

109. Resource Of The American Scientific Affiliation: Taxonomy, Transitional Forms, A
taxonomy refers to the methods by which species are defined and grouped into a taxonomy, the process of classifying living and fossil organisms,

Taxonomy, Transitional Forms,
and the Fossil Record
Keith B. Miller

The recognition and interpretation of patterns in the fossil record require an awareness of the limitations of that record. Only a very small fraction of the species that have lived during past geologic history is preserved in the rock record. Most marine species are soft-bodied, or have thin organic cuticles, and are essentially unpreservable except under the most extraordinary conditions. Furthermore, the destructive processes active in most marine environments prevent the preservation of even shelled organisms under normal conditions. Preservational opportunities are even more limited in the terrestrial environment. Most fossil vertebrate species are represented by no more than a few fragmentary remains. Because of the preservational biases of the fossil record, paleontologists must reconstruct evolutionary relationships from isolated branches of an originally very bushy tree. The process of describing and classifying organisms introduces its own patterns into the taxonomic hierarchy. First, because organisms must be placed in one group or another, taxonomy gives the impression of discontinuity. Secondly, the placement of species into higher taxa is done retrospectively; that is, by looking backward through time. The evolutionary significance of particular morphologic transitions is only recognized because of the subsequent success of particular lineages. The defining characters of higher taxa are thus a consequence of history, and do not represent some objective scale of the magnitude of morphologic divergence. Closely-related species from two different higher taxa may actually be more similar in morphology than two distantly-related species belonging to the same group.

History and Taxonomy
Squash and pumpkins will be discussed together because their cultural requirements are similar and because of the great confusion in differentiating between the two. There is also confusion about the origin of pumpkins and squash. T.W. Whitaker and G.W. Bohn presented evidence in 1950 that five species of Cucurbita, that are known as pumpkins and squash, originated in the Americas. Whitaker and Bohn also defined the terms pumpkin, summer squash, and winter squash as follows: Pumpkin -the edible fruit of any species of Cucurbita, used when ripe as a table vegetable or in pies; flesh is somewhat coarse and/or strongly flavored, hence is not generally served as a baked vegetable. Summer Squash -The edible fruit of any species of Cucurbita, commonly C. pepo , used when immature as a table vegetable. Winter Squash -The edible fruit of any species of Cucurbita used when ripe as a table vegetable or in pies; flesh is usually fine-grained and of mild flavor, hence is suitable for baking.

Genomic Interactions
We are studying the processes involved in plant meristem development and in plant responses to bacterial infection. As a team, we take an integrated approach to plant biology using a wide range of techniques including genetics, molecular biology, biochemistry, proteomics, cell biology and bioinformatics. We use two interacting well characterised model organisms - the legume Medicago truncatula and the soil bacteria Sinorhizobium meliloti to enable the role of specific genes, gene products and signalling molecules regulating growth and development to be assessed.

Practical Taxonomies
Hard-won wisdom for creating a workable knowledge classification system
-By Sarah L. Roberts-Witt The only thing harder than finding any particular item of information may be finding it again. As organizations and individuals struggle over the intractable problem of data smog, the issue isn't so much acquiring the information in the first place, but remembering just where it was left. The solution is a knowledge classification system-including a taxonomy structure for navigating the system-that categorizes all the information the organization chooses to track in a logical manner so that it can be reliably accessed by anyone in the organization. Sounds easy, right? Just ask Yahoo! The opening page of Yahoo! provides an entrŽe to one of the largest, most familiar and most frequently accessed knowledge classification systems in the world, fronted by a basic but highly usable taxonomy. "We continually revisit and re-evaluate the directory structure to make sure it still works for the people who use it," said Srinija Srinivasan, Yahoo!'s editor-in-chief. "We are all about determining which differences we can carve out, as well as defining which similarities are meaningful." When it comes to creating a knowledge-classification system, it is fair to say that the majority of organizations don't face the challenges Yahoo! does in terms of information volume. Conversely, most organizations don't have the luxury of attacking the problem with an army of human indexers and editors. But there is a common thread-the need to tame the seemingly endless influx of data in a way that is usable, effective and simple.
