A Study of the Biology Questions in the 6th Grade Science and Technology Test of the Level Assessment Examination Based on the Revised Taxonomy

This paper aims to study and compare the biology questions in the sixth grade Science and Technology Tests of the Level Assessment Examinations (SBS) administered in 2008 and 2009 based on the knowledge and cognitive process dimensions of the Revised Taxonomy. The study looked at a total of ten biology questions, five in 2008 and five in 2009. Three doctoral and three master's students worked independently on the classification of the questions according to the Revised Taxonomy, as required by the internal validity of the research. Upon completion of the classification, the assessment results were examined by an education specialist and the data were found to be 90% consistent. The questions were evaluated according to the knowledge and cognitive process dimensions of the Revised Taxonomy and were placed in the two dimensional taxonomy tables. The study findings reveal that, as far as the cognitive process dimension goes, the biology questions remain at the level of remember and unders
