the answer the student should apply a concept of fish behavior in an aquarium so he can understand the reason of the jumping fish. Those processes are identified
as APQ on the basis of Bloom’s Taxonomy-based teacher question framework as cited in Mehr, et al.,2014, where the students are put in certain situation as a
jumping fish from the aquarium and they are asked to apply their self in that situation to apply known facts, problem, principles, theories, concepts, rules or
generalization to solve a problem.
4. Analysis Question
This Analysis Question ANQ is needed because according to Bloom’s Taxonomy-based teacher question framework as cited in Mehr, et al.,2014 it
requires student to identify reasons and comprehend elements of a process, communication, or series of events and analyze the available information into
conclusion and breaking down into parts or forms . Excerpt 7
Teacher : What are the characteristics of Politicians?
Student : They are selfish especially in Indonesia because they
want to put all their needs at the top and become the center of all people attention, they are greedy for example they have done so many negative
things for example corruption, confidence because they can influence others to choose them...
The Excerpt 7 presents a question and answer between student and teacher. In the light of analytical framework, “What are the characteristics of
21
Politicians? ” is indicated as ANQ since the teacher asked for the characteristics of
specific group of people. When the teacher ask for characteristics it means the students are required to make a categorization of people characters in the context
of politicians. There are some characteristics and students should break down it from two sides that are from negative, positive sides and need to think critically.
The student not only know who the politicians’ are but, the student relates to some issues that attached in politicians’ life so the process of deciding, analyzing,
breaking down information in a group of categorization are very closed to ANQ. Moreover, from the student’s answer it can be seen that the student is
successfully stimulated by ANQ, “they are greedy for example they have done so many negative things for example corruption” this is the categorization of
negative character of politicia ns. Moreover, “confidence because they can
influence others to choose them...” is identified as positive character of politicians. The student also gives the supporting issue which can demonstrate the answer.
Excerpt 8 Discussing about Stereotyping
Teacher : Are there any benefits that people stereotype?
Students : Yes..
Teacher : What are they?
Student 1 : To warn us in danger..
Teacher : Exactly. Maybe it is not danger but trouble or lost.
Student 2 : To be able to adapt to a certain situation..
Student 3 : To learn other culture, for example Chinese people are
diligent. Why don’t we do like them?
22
Student 4 : To know their Like and Dislike..
Teacher : “Good. Stereotype will facilitate you when you want to
adapt.”
Based on the excerpt 8 it can be seen that teacher are successfully stimulate students to analyze the benefits of Stereotyping. Trough “Are there any
benefits that people stereotype?” the question can lead students to analyze some benefits that they get from Stereotyping. Than student
1, only says “ Yes..” but the teacher expects the student to give more answer than the teacher asks “What are
they?” by this question teacher expects students to give rich answer. Therefore, before answering the question students need to classify between disadvantages
and advantages of stereotyping, the process of classifying is still categorized as ANQ. There is more than one student who participates and gives their answers.
Take as an example student 3 answers “To learn other culture, for example Chinese people are diligent.
Why don’t we do like them?.” At this occasion student 3 has give complete answer, “To learn other culture” this is the aim of
stereotyping, than the student continues to give example “for example Chinese people are diligent” the students takes example of Chinese people and gives
suggestion “Why don’t we do like them?”. From the answer teacher expectation can be fulfilled. Overall, students can analyze reason of the benefits of
Stereotyping and this process can be labeled as ANQ.
