The application of the revised Bloom's taxonomy in the development of chemistry problems in the domain of knowledge is still difficult for some chemistry teachers. This paper is a practical study of the preparation of learning objectives and the development of chemical items by applying the revised Bloom's taxonomy which includes three domains, namely knowledge (cognitive), attitude (affective), and skills (psychomotor). This paper is focused on the preparation of learning objectives and the development of chemistry items for the assessment of the domain of knowledge which includes the levels of remembering, understanding, applying, analyzing, evaluating, and creating. The six cognitive processes are sequential from the lowest cognitive processes to the highest cognitive processes called C1-C6 cognition processes. The methodology in this paper consists of three steps, namely examining the meaning of each level of cognition in the revised Bloom taxonomy, developing learning objectives that are in accordance with the cognitive level being studied and continuing with the arrangement of the problem items in chemistry subjects. The strengths of this study are very helpful for chemistry teachers in developing learning objectives and chemistry questions in the domain of knowledge based on the revised Bloom taxonomy, because this study is equipped with descriptions of each cognitive process, examples of learning objectives and appropriate question items. Examples of questions given in this paper are multiple choice types and essay tests, because each type of question has its advantages. The result of this study is that the application of the revised Bloom's taxonomy to the development of chemical problems requires an understanding of each level of the cognitive level in the revised Bloom's taxonomy, as the basis for developing learning objectives and the appropriate problem questions.

This study is a descriptive qualitative which aims to know the appropriateness of the textbook’s content with the cognitive dimension of Revised Bloom’s Taxonomy and to know the dominant cognitive category of the Revised Bloom’s Taxonomy in the textbook. This research was focused on analyzing the English Textbook, “Pathway to English”, which is published by Erlangga. The data was analyzed through data analysis table to categorize the activity with defined as any one of the following: a question or instructional activity, based on cognitive dimension. The result showed that there are 271 activities in the textbook. The activities spread over 105 (38.7%) remembering, 76 (28%) understanding, 48 (17.7%) applying, 28 (10.3%) analyzing, 7 (2.6%) evaluating, and 7 (2.6%) creating. The total number of activities that included to HOTS are 42 activities or 15.5% and the activities that included to LOTS are 229 activities or 84.5%. The most dominant activity was remembering which the lowest dimension of cognitive level of Revised Bloom Taxonomy. Then, the number of LOTS and HOTS activities in each chapter are very different. Hence, it is not enough if the teacher just only uses the English textbook as a teaching tool to improve students HOTS ability.

Abstract:This study aims to describe the distribution of cognitive levels of questions in the 2018 Revised Class XII Mathematics Textbook for Congruence and Similarity Based on Bloom's Taxonomy. Bloom's Taxonomy used is a revised Bloom's Taxonomy with cognitive process dimensions consisting of: remembering(C1), understanding(C2), applying(C3), analyzing(C4), evaluating(C5), and creating(C6). This type of research was descriptive research with a qualitative approach. Sources of data in this study were questions about the material congruence, similarity and competency test questions contained in the mathematics textbooks of class XII students. The research was carried out with the method of collecting documentation data and using research instruments in the form of analysis sheets and analysis conformity sheets. The results showed that the distribution of the cognitive level of questions on the congruence and similarity material contained the cognitive level of understanding(C2) as much as 18.2%, applying(C3) as much as 50% and analyzing(C4) as much as 31.8%, with the dominant cognitive level being cognitive level of applying(C3) and does not include cognitive levels of remembering(C1), evaluating(C2) and creating(C6). So it was found that the distribution of the cognitive level of the questions on the material of congruence and similarity topic did not vary or was not proportional. with the dominant cognitive level being cognitive level of applying(C3) and does not include cognitive levels of remembering(C1), evaluating(C2) and creating(C6). So it was found that the distribution of the cognitive level of the questions on the material of congruence and similarity topic did not vary or was not proportional. with the dominant cognitive level being cognitive level of applying(C3) and does not include cognitive levels of remembering(C1), evaluating(C2) and creating(C6). So it was found that the distribution of the cognitive level of the questions on the material of congruence and similarity topic did not vary or was not proportional.

Abstrak: Ilmu kimia sebagai ilmu yang berdasarkan pada  penelitian (induktif), yang seharusnya mampu menyajikan soal yang menantang dan tersebar dalam enam level kognitif, hanya saja kondisi sebenarnya soal-soal kimia masih dibuat tradisional dengan berada pada level kognitif rendah. Soal olimpiade sebagai ajang kompetisi nasional siswa-siswa berprestasi di Indonesia pun belum diketahui level kognitif yang terkandung di dalamnya. Maka tujuan penelitian ini yakni, mendeskripsikan komposisi penyebaran soal terhadap tabel Taksonomi Bloom revisi, mendeskripsikan perbandingan soal OSN dan IChO (International Chemistry Olympiad) pada materi yang sama, dan  memetakan soal-soal tersebut terhadap standar kompetensi dan kompetensi dasar SMA/MA. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa pada tahun 2012 tersebar pada prosedural-mengaplikasikan dan konseptual-memahami. Pada tahun 2013 tersebar pada dimensi prosedural-mengaplikasikan dan faktual-memahami. Berdasarkan konten materi dalam satu soal IChO  menuntut siswa dapat menemukan keterkaitan suatu materi dengan materi lainnya guna menyelesaikan soal tersebut sedangkan OSN tidak, tetapi keduanya  memiliki dimensi pengetahuan dan dimensi proses kognitif yang tidak terlalu berbeda yakni pada lingkup prosedural-mengaplikasikan dan prosedural-menganalisis. Hasil pemetaan terhadap SK-KD SMA/MA menunjukkan sebesar setengah dari jumlah ksesluruhan soal dapat dipetakan. Adanya analisis ini diharapkan menjadi masukan bagi guru untuk memberikan penguatan konsep kimia pada pembelajaran, agar siswa mampu mengerjakan berbagai macam soal, salah satunya soal OSN. Penelitian ini masih terbatas pada tahun 2012 dan 2013, sehingga dapat dikembangkan analisis untuk tahun-tahun lainnya. Kata-kata Kunci : Analisis, Taksonomi Bloom revisi, Dimensi Pengetahuan, Dimensi Proses Kognitif Abstract: Chemistry as a science that is based on research (inductive), which is supposed to be able to present a challenging problem and scattered in six cognitive levels, it's just that the actual conditions of chemical problems are still made traditionally with low cognitive level. Olympics as a matter of national competition top students in Indonesia is not yet known cognitive level contained therein. So the purpose of this study, describing the composition of matter of the spread of the revised Bloom's Taxonomy tables, describing the comparison about OSN and IChO (International Chemistry Olympiad) on the same material, and to map these problems to the standards of competence and basic competences SMA/MA. The analysis showed that in 2012 spread over-apply procedural and conceptual understanding. In 2013 spread to the dimension-apply procedural and factual-understand. Based on the content of the material in a matter of IChO requires students to be able to find a material relationship with the other materials in order to resolve these problems while OSN does not, but both have dimensions of knowledge and cognitive process dimensions are not too different from that in the scope of procedural-procedural-applying and analyzing. The results of the mapping of the SK-KD SMA / MA shows only half the number of ksesluruhan matter can be mapped. The existence of this analysis are expected to be the input for the teacher to provide reinforcement in learning chemistry concepts, so that students are able to do a variety of problems, one of which is a matter of OSN. This study was limited in 2012 and 2013, so that the analysis can be developed for other years. Key Words: Analysis, revised Bloom's Taxonomy, Knowledge Dimension, The Cognitive Process Dimension

Many organizations employ training systems to reduce work-related low back disorders. However, the evaluation of training programs is often not satisfactory, mainly due to the complexity of training systems, the high costs involved, heavy reliance on trainee reactions, and little integration of outcomes-based validation. In this work, we used the Revised Bloom's Taxonomy to classify the learning objectives of a training program. These classified objectives were then examined to predict training performance, and were further compared with trainee reactions using multiple regression and correlation analyses accordingly. Results indicated that the classified learning objectives were better predictors of training performance than trainee reactions. Practical implications of the results are discussed.

The purpose of the study is to reveal the types of knowledge level and cognitive processes by evaluating the objectives and indicators of Ministry of National Education 2013 Preschool Curriculum according to the Revised Bloom’s Taxonomy. The study is a descriptive research and it was carried out by using case study methodology. The data set of this study consists of 63 goals and 241 indicators in the Preschool Curriculum, which was developed by Ministry of National Education-General Directorate of Basic Education in 2013. The data were collected by using the "Objectives and Indicator Evaluation Form" created by the researchers and the content analysis method was used in the analysis of the data obtained. The whole curriculum was analyzed and according to the cognitive processes and it was revealed that the highest intensity was at the application and understanding processes, and the least intensity at the creativity process. While factual knowledge was mostly used knowledge type in the curriculum, it was revealed that operational and metacognitive knowledge were the least used knowledge types. The curriculum was cognitive dominant, and the distribution of objectives and indicators of the curriculum was not balanced across all developmental domains. The curriculum objectives and indicators may be revised to support whole development of children.
