Costa's Levels of Questioning
Arthur Costa, an education researcher, divided questions into three categories. These categories define the complexity or depth of thinking required by different types of questions.
1. Level 1 Questions: Factual Answers point to one fact or detail in the text. Level 1 questions have only one answer and are very concrete. Words found in Level 1 questions include:
? Define ? Name ? Match ? Complete ? Observe ? Describe ? Select ? Identify ? List
Examples: Define cultural convergence. Name the two major religions represented in the population of Jerusalem.
2. Level 2 Questions: Interpretive Answers inferred from what the text implicitly states or what can be found in several places in the text. Level 2 questions often have more than one answer, and answers are derived from evidence in text or other media. Words found in Level 2 questions include:
? Analyze ? Group ? Compare/contrast ? Infer ? Classify ? Sort ? Distinguish
Examples: Compare and contrast Jewish and Muslim religious beliefs. What was the main point of...?

3. Level 3 Questions: Reflective/Open-Ended Answers are suggested by the text. Level 3 questions facilitate deeper learning and the application of acquired knowledge, facts, techniques, and rules. Level 3 questions ask for judgments to be made from information. Words found in Level 3 questions include: ? Evaluate ? Apply ? Hypothesize ? Imagine ? Judge ? Predict ? Speculate Examples: Imagine you were a Muslim woman living in Jerusalem today. How would you dress ? according to traditional Muslim cultural norms or according to your own style, if different? Predict how your family would react if you were to go against an accepted gender role in your family's ethnic or religious culture?
