Abstract
Didactic concept on the questioning is a process which is closely linked to student learning, provides interactivity during the process of teaching, enables deeper levels of learning, creates infinite space for the development of critical thinking and many other mental and psychological processes. The dimensions of questioning lie on many levels: the level of the text, the level of student relations and student teachers relations during student group work and other educational activities. The object of this study is the questioning process that relates to the inclusion of respondents used as pedagogical devices within the content of each lesson topic. For the purpose of this study two groups of texts were taken inconsideration: texts of social sciences and natural sciences used in the Albanian school in order to see how questioning represents different levels of the taxonomy of learning and the types of questions designed according to different dimensions. In line with this observation the level of student learning was reviewed. This study gives some research findings based on the above analyses aiming at helping the authors of textbooks and teachers with writing and asking questions which enhance critical thinking and learning.
