dc.description.abstractThe present research is intended to examine the extent to which Master one Didactics students in the Department of English at MMUTO implement the essential thinking skills in their exam papers in the module of ‘EFL Teaching and Testing’. It also seeks to find out the most implemented essential thinking skills. Our research is guided by Barbara Presseisen’s Taxonomy of essential thinking skills (1991) from a constructivist perspective. To collect data, we have examined a sample of twenty-five (25) exam papers in the module of ‘EFL Teaching and Testing’. For our analysis, we have adopted a mixed-method approach. Indeed, the SPSS was used to quantify the distribution of each category of the essential thinking skills in the students’ exam essays. In addition, the findings have been interpreted using the qualitative content analysis. The findings indicate that the students’ essays align with the theoretical framework of Presseisen’s Taxonomy of the essential thinking skills in the book entitled ‘Developing Minds; A Resource Book of Teaching Thinking by Costa, Arthur. L (1991). However, it was observed that not all thinking skills categories received equal emphasis. In fact, qualification and relationships stand out as the mostly stressed followed by transformations skill, then causation and lastly the classification skill.
