Abstract

This study aimed to analyze the questions in the American Language Course Textbooks' (ALC) for levels one and two at Prince Faisal Technical College in Jordan and to know the extent to which they covered the domains: cognitive, psychological, and emotional. In order to achieve this aim, the researcher used Bloom's classification of educational goals (cognitive domain, psychological domain, and emotional domain) to analyze the questions, and its validity and reliability indicators have been verified. The sample of the study consisted of the questions included in the (ALC) Textbooks for levels one and two at Prince Faisal Technical College. The findings of the study revealed that the vast majority of the questions in each level individually were questions related to the cognitive domain, at a very high rate, while the questions in the emotional and psychosocial domains were limited. The results also showed that the vast majority of questions focused on the first two levels of cognitive goals, according to Bloom's classification, namely, memorization and understanding.
