After remembering/recalling information and understanding/explaining ideas or concepts, the third level of Bloom’s Taxonomy is applying, which involves using the information that you remember and understand from another familiar situation and then executing/carrying out a procedure to a new situation/task or implementing/using this information to an unfamiliar situation/task (Teaching Learning Centre – Indian Institute of Technology Madras, n.d.). 

There are several ways to demonstrate how this knowledge can be “applied”, such as building, collection, interview, model, presentation, role-playing, scrapbook, and simulation (Northern Illinois University – Faculty Development and Instructional Design Center, n.d.).  The technologies that are involved to incorporate applying knowledge are a blog, collaborative learning, and creating a process (Clark, 2015).  Once a learner masters remembering, understanding, and applying knowledge, it enables the learner to move onto the fourth level of Bloom’s Taxonomy.
