For example, in order to universally reach all types of learners, one must use the various steps in Bloom's cognitive domains, creatively utilizing latest technology engaging the learner in the material, with the pre-established purpose of changing their behaviors and attitudes of the things that are being learned. So, the Instructional Designers might consider themselves to be architects of cognition.
