Paper 2
A scale between two extremes, on which a skill can be placed according to its characteristics.
Revise: Classification of skillsA continuum is a scale between two extremes. Skills do not have to fit completely into one category; they can lie anywhere between the endpoints. The two continua used here describe different aspects of a skill: its difficulty and the influence of its environment.
Treat each continuum separately. A complex skill can be closed, and skills can lie between the endpoints.
