here are several ways to categorize knowledge. Here are a few common ones:
Based on the source of knowledge:
Empirical knowledge: Knowledge gained through experience or observation.
Rational knowledge: Knowledge gained through reasoning or deduction.
Intuitive knowledge: Knowledge gained through insight or intuition.
Based on the level of abstraction:
Concrete knowledge: Knowledge that is specific, tangible, and based on sensory experience.
Abstract knowledge: Knowledge that is conceptual, theoretical, and not directly tied to sensory experience.
Based on the type of knowledge:
Declarative knowledge: Knowledge about facts or information.
Procedural knowledge: Knowledge about how to do something, such as a skill or procedure.
Conditional knowledge: Knowledge about when to apply certain knowledge or skills in different situations.
Based on the domain or subject area:
Scientific knowledge: Knowledge related to the natural or physical world, based on scientific method and evidence.
Social knowledge: Knowledge related to human behavior, culture, and society.
Philosophical knowledge: Knowledge related to fundamental questions about reality, existence, knowledge, and values.
Based on the degree of certainty or confidence:
Certain knowledge: Knowledge that is believed to be true beyond doubt.
Tentative knowledge: Knowledge that is subject to revision or refinement based on further evidence or investigation.
Probabilistic knowledge: Knowledge that is based on statistical probabilities and estimates.
There are multiple ways to categorise knowledge. eg: Taxonomies, inventories, ... I wonder if there is a place for this as part of the patterns.
Is the knowledge categorisation method(s) used appropriate for the type of knowledge?
