ABSTRACT. The purpose of this research was to determine the primary school teachers' application levels of measurement and evaluation principles according to their own perceptions. 236 primary school teachers who were attending in-service training program in Aksaray in 2006-2007 academic year were involved in this research. The data was collected by a questionnaire with 30 items. Primary schools teachers' level of applying the principles of measurement and evaluation in classroom settings were reported by frequency and percentages. The relationship between the variables-relationship of teachers' frequency level of applications of measurement and evaluation with gender, years of experience in public sector, the department they graduated and the class size of they attended-were determined with Cramer's V coefficient. According to the findings, most of the teachers pay attention to the applications of measurement and evaluation principles. However, they do not use these measurement and evaluation principles in assessment of student achievement in most of time. There is no significant relationship between the variables; primary school teachers' applications of measurement and evaluation , and years of experience in service, faculty they graduated and the class size they attended.Key words: measurement and evaluation, application of measurement and evaluation, teacher's self-perceived assessment skills.* This study is a summary of the thesis submitted to the Ankara University for the degree of SUMMARYAssessment is a regular part of the teachers' school routine. The amount of time devoted to assessment varies from teacher to teacher and class to class. Literature reveals that teachers encounter with many problems during their classroom assessments. Moreover, although they don't have enough skills and knowledge regarding various assessment techniques, nevertheless, they apply these techniques for classroom assessments. The main purpose of this study was to investigate perceptions of primary school teachers' frequency levels related to assessment applications are based on measurement and evaluation principles.Participants of this research comprised of-236 primary school teachers from several schools in different parts of Turkey. We reached to them at an in-service training program in Aksaray, 2006-2007 academic year. The participants were constituted 106 females and 130 males. The data was collected by a questionnaire which is constructed by the researchers to find out the teachers' application levels about measurement and evaluation principles in four points rating scale questionnaire form which is consisted of 30 items. Teachers were asked to respond to items that addressed their use of assessment techniques. The analyseswas carried out for 236 returned responses by SPSS 15. Primary schools teachers' application levels of the principles of measurement and evaluation in class activities were reported by frequency and percentages. The relationships between the variablesrelationship of teachers' level of use application...
ÖzBu araştırmanın amacı, Ankara Üniversitesi'nde tüm fakültelerde birinci sınıf öğrencilerine uygulanmakta olan Bilgi ve İletişim Teknolojileri dersi muafiyet sınavı testinin bilgisayar ortamında bireye uyarlanmış test (BOBUT) olarak uygulanabilirliğini araştırmaktır. Araştırma iki temel aşamada gerçekleştirilmiştir. İlk aşamada, hazırlanan maddeleri denemek ve simülatif BOBUT uygulamasında üzerinde çalışılacak verileri elde etmek üzere 1366 üniversite öğrencisiyle çalışılmıştır. İkinci aşamada ise, 142 üniversite birinci sınıf öğrencisiyle canlı (live) BOBUT ve kâğıt-kalem testi uygulaması gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırmada veri toplama aracı olarak Bilgisayar Okuryazarlık (BİLOKUR) testi kullanılmıştır. Araştırmada toplanan verilerin madde tepki kuramı'nın (MTK) 3 parametreli lojistik modeline uyum sağladığı tespit edilen 136 maddelik soru havuzu ile canlı BOBUT uygulaması yapılmıştır. Araştırmanın bulgularına göre, simülatif BOBUT uygulamasında kestirilen yeterlik kestirimlerine ilişkin en yüksek güvenirlik ölçüsü, sabit madde sayısına göre test sonlandırma koşulunda bulunmuştur. Ayrıca kullanılan madde sayısı bakımından, en az madde kullanımı, test sonlandırma koşulunun SH<0.50 olduğu durumda gerçekleşmiştir. En yüksek olabilirlik yöntemine (EYOY) göre yeterlik kestiriminin uygulandığı BOBUT testinde öğrencilerin yeterlik ölçüleri, kâğıt-kalem testinden elde edilenlere göre, özellikle uç değerlerde daha güvenilir ölçme sonuç vermiş, standart hata değeri açısından da BOBUT uygulamasıyla daha düşük hata kestirimleri elde edilmiştir. Canlı BOBUT uygulamasından elde edilen ortalama güvenirlik (test bilgi değeri), kâğıt-kalem testinden elde edilen güvenirlik değerinden daha yüksek bulunmuştur. Bu araştırmanın sonuçlarına göre, SH<0.30 test sonlandırma kuralı kullanıldığında EYOY; SH<0.50 ve sabit madde (30) test durdurma kuralı kullanıldığında ise, beklenen sonsal dağılıma (BSD) dayalı yeterlik kestirim değerlerinin daha güvenilir olduğu bulunmuştur. Ayrıca canlı BOBUT uygulamasında elde edilen test bilgi miktarı, kâğıt-kalem testinden elde edilen güvenirlikten anlamlı düzeyde yüksek bulunmuştur.
