It seems clear that a useful first step in the examination of this topic might be to establish an agreed vocabulary or terminology or [[jargon]] in order for us to hang a convenient and agreed label on each idea or notion or concept that we mention.
* Each idea that is truly a new idea needs a name; and that name must also be new.
* On the other hand we need to know when an idea is ''not'' new.
* If the idea already has a generally-agreed name, we may be sure:
** that the idea is not new
** that we may safely use that generally-agreed name for the same idea when we use or refer to the idea.
* Giving names in this way is known as [[nomenclature]].<!--The word nomenclature is also used as a noun which refers to a particular vocabulary of names used particularly in a particular study or discipline.-->
* In discussing intellectual development one such nomenclature is that used in [[Bloom's Taxonomy]].
* There are others, as we will discover in due course, but it will probably be to our advantage to make ourselves well acquainted now with the names (and their meanings) used in Bloom's Taxonomy, if only to avoid the need of constant reference to an appropriate glossary or dictionary or dictionaries.
