In the original (1956) version of Bloom's taxonomy of educational objectives, which is the highest level of the cognitive domain?

The 1956 cognitive taxonomy arranges six levels from the simplest to the most complex: knowledge, comprehension, application, analysis, synthesis and evaluation, so evaluation stands at the top. Application, analysis and synthesis are lower steps on which evaluation builds. In the 2001 revision the top two levels were reordered and renamed, so that "create" now sits above "evaluate", but that change does not alter the original order.
