dc.description.abstract | This research reports the study that investigated the proportions of cognitive
levels from WH-questions presented in the textbook based on revised Bloom‟s
taxonomy. The textbook is English Language textbook in Curriculum 2013 for
tenth grade semester 1 published by the Ministry of Education and Culture.
The researcher prepared an instrument to categorize WH-questions based on
cognitive levels in Revised Bloom‟s Taxonomy (RBT). The instrument was
adapted from Anderson and Krathwohl (2001). The researcher selected only
all the WH-questions in the textbook. Then, all the WH-questions categorized
by the instrument. The results show that the textbook is dominated by lower
order thinking skills which are understanding (58,06%), applying (16,93%),
and remembering (11,29%). The higher order thinking skills represent in
analyzing (7,25%) and evaluating (6,45%).
