Bloom's Digital Taxonomy has been used as a basis for the creation of individual capability statements in the framework. The Taxonomy is explained throughout this section.

Individual capability statements in the framework in each level are ordered based on Bloom's Digital Taxonomy.

The taxonomy moves from lower order thinking skills (bottom) to higher order thinking skills (top).

The digital taxonomy defines a hierarchy of learning activities that can be applied to a digital environment.

This can be used for tasks such as lesson planning and curriculum design.
