Kurt Gödel

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kurt_G%C3%B6del Kurt Friedrich Gödel [ 2 ] ( / ˈ k ɜr t ɡ ɜr d əl / ; German: [ˈkʊʁt ˈɡøːdəl] ( listen ) ; April 28, 1906 – January 14, 1978) was an Austrian American logician , mathematician , and philosopher . After World War II, he emigrated to the United States . Considered among the most significant logicians in human history—at the level of Aristotle and Frege —Gödel made an immense impact upon scientific and philosophical thinking in the 20th century, a time when others such as Bertrand Russell , [ 3 ] A. N. Whitehead , [ 3 ] and David Hilbert were pioneering the use of logic and set theory to understand the foundations of mathematics .

http://www.celt.iastate.edu/teaching/RevisedBlooms1.html A statement of a learning objective contains a verb (an action) and an object (usually a noun). The verb generally refers to [actions associated with] the intended cognitive process . The object generally describes the knowledge students are expected to acquire or construct. (Anderson and Krathwohl, 2001, pp. 4–5) The cognitive process dimension represents a continuum of increasing cognitive complexity — from remember to create.
