Explanation

In ascending cognitive order the question types run Remembering, Understanding, Applying, Analyzing and Evaluating.

Remembering questions ask for recall of facts and are the lowest order.

Understanding questions ask learners to explain meaning in their own words.

Applying questions ask learners to use knowledge in a new situation.

Analyzing questions break material into parts, and evaluating questions ask learners to judge worth, the highest here.

This ordering follows the revised Bloom's taxonomy of Anderson and Krathwohl, 2001.
