Information ladder
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The information ladder is a diagram created by education professor Norman Longworth to describe the stages in human learning. According to the ladder, a learner moves through the following progression to construct 'wisdom' at the highest level from 'data' at the lowest level:
- Data → Information → Knowledge → Understanding → Insight → Wisdom
