This level is defined as the ability to grasp the meaning of material and may be demonstrated by translating material from one form to another or by interpreting material. Students using comprehension present a basic understanding of material. Whereas a student at the knowledge level can recall information in a rote fashion, students at the comprehension level are able to manipulate that information in a manner that demonstrates more than simple memorization. In written work, students demonstrating comprehension are able to summarize the main points of articles they have read and can manipulate that information into their own words. However, they continue to make many of the same assumptions that students in the knowledge level make. They are still unable to make distinctions between the quality of the sources they are using, believing all publications to be equally valid and relevant. They continue to have difficulty understanding which information is particularly relevant to the topic at hand, and they may include extraneous information simply because it is interesting or is assumed to be related because it appears in an article with other related information
