Major Types And Subtypes Examples
A. Factual Knwoledge : The basic elements students must know to be
acquainted with a discipline or solve problems in
it.
AA. Knowledge of Termimology
AB. Knowledge of specific details and
elements
B. Conceptual Knwoledge : The interrelationships among the basic
elements within a larger structure the enable
them to function together.

logarithms
CB. Knowledge of subject-specific techniques and
methods
CC. Knowledge of criteria for determining when to
use appropriate procedures
D. Metacognitve Knwoledge : Knowledge of cognition in general as well as
awareness and knowledge of one’s own cognition.
DA. Strategic knowledge
DB. Knowledge about cognitive tasks, including
appropriate contextual and conditional
knowledge
DC. Self knowledge
Factual Knowledge &
