It includes such mental abilities          as      knowing and understanding definitions, facts, and principles (e.g., knowing the effect of diabetes medications).        2. Application - (approx 50% of questions)        This level refers to the ability to apply knowledge and learning to new or practical situations. It includes applying rules, methods,                     principles, and diabetes education theories in providing care to clients (e.g., applying diabetes management principles to the care of            clients, applying education theory in an education class).       3. Critical Thinking - (approx 25% of questions)       This level deals with higher-level thinking processes. It includes the ability to judge the relevance of data, to deal with abstractions, and           to solve diabetes education problems (e.g., identifying priorities of care, evaluating the effectiveness of diabetes-education actions).
