5. The methodological Conception  Main Module 1: Fundamentals  Main Module 2: Technological systems and processes  Main Module 3: Information and communication  Main Module 4: Socio-technology  Main Module 5: Didactics of Teaching Technology

6. Basic Conception of Main Module 3  Systemic Thinking  Interlaced Structures of Technological Systems  Appliance oriented skills (competences)  Consideration of - Didactical Elements - Methodological Elements  Procurement of - Technological decision-making - Responsibility

7. Description of Main Module 3  In the systematic structure of this module the hierarchical taxonomy of a cognitive minted learning target can be recognized. After reaching the last hierarchical stage (appliance), the cognitive ability should be present to divide a complex problem into its elementary ranges. These ranges should be assigned to partial hierarchical stages and the total problem should be solved by systematic release in a systemic way.

8. Taxonomy of the cognitive Dimension Hierarchical Taxonomy of Learning Objectives by B. Bloom Cognitive Dimension Knowledge Comprehension Application Analysis Synthesis Evaluation Note: A revised taxonomy was published in 2001 entitled “A Taxonomy For Learning, Teaching & Assessment” written by Lorin Anderson and David Krathwohl. The revised taxonomy focuses on teaching and learning, rather than assessment, but can be applied to the construction of test items.
