Comparison of 2013 and 2018 Science Teaching Programmes’ Learning Outcomes According to Revised Bloom Taxonomy

Abstract

The main motivation for this study is to compare 2018 Science Programme and 2013 Science Programme according to Revised Bloom Taxonomy’s Cognitive Field Press. The document analysis method, qualitative research method, was used. The study brings together the programme comparisons made so far while presenting an up-to-date programme comparison and offering various suggestions on behalf of the cognitive process. The keywords (action words) of the Revised Bloom Taxonomy were used in data analysis. All the sentences given in the outcomes of the Science Curriculum were evaluated as a whole. According to Miles and Huberman, the reliability ratio was calculated as 91% in the overall study by considering three researchers. In terms of the gains in the programs implemented in 2013 and 2018, a decrease in the percentages of the Recall, Implementation, Analysis and Evaluation steps; On the other hand, it was determined that there was an increase in the percentages in the stages of Understanding and Creation. In the analysis step, only at the 6th Grade level; at the 3rd, 4th, 6th and 8th grade levels in the assessment level; In the creation step, an increase was determined at all class levels.
