Purpose of the research is to analyses 8th Grade Science and Technology Lesson Curriculum questions according to the cognitive process dimension of Revised Bloom's Taxonomy [RBT]. 8th Grade Science Technology Lesson Curriculum has been prepared as part of curriculum reform in 2004. It has been put into practice from 2006-2007 school years by starting from 6th grade and then gradually has continued with 7th and 8th grades. 156 questions in 8th Grade Science Technology Lesson Curriculum were classified according to the cognitive process dimension of RBT. Data of research was obtained through document analyses technique which is qualitative research methods. Cognitive process dimensions of these questions have been examined considering the standards which have been prepared according to RBT. In the result of questions analysis; it was determined that questions in the level of understanding (%48,72) and analyzing (%23,72) are intended, the question of the remembering (%12,18) and applying (%13,46) are less intended than understanding and analyzing, and there has too few questions in the level of evaluating (%0,64) and creating (%1,28).
