Known knowledge is a meaning or judgment the learner already possesses; unknown knowledge is what the learner aims to gain. What is familiar to one person may be unknown to another.
Example 1: a student knows the meanings 'living being' and 'rational' but does not know how they describe 'human.' The missing item is a conception.
Example 2: a student knows two statements but has not drawn the conclusion they imply. The missing item is a judgment.
