Okul Öncesi Eğitim Programının Değerlendirme Sorularının Kullanımına Yönelik Öğretmen Görüşleri

Bu araştırmanın amacı okul öncesi öğretmenlerinin eğitim programlarında yer alan değerlendirme sorularının (betimleyici, duyuşsal, kazanım ve göstergelere yönelik, yaşamla ilişkilendirme) hangilerini kullandıklarını ve değerlendirme konusu üzerine aldıkları eğitimin bu soruları kullanım sıklıklarına etkisi olup olmadığına yönelik görüşlerini belirlemektir. Tarama modeli kullanılarak 323 okul öncesi öğretmenin görüşleri alınmış ve veriler iki değişken için kay-kare Testi kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Öğretmenlerin betimleyici ve kazanım ve göstergelere yönelik soruları duyuşsal ve yaşamla ilişkilendirme sorularına göre daha çok tercih ettikleri sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Ayrıca öğretmenlerin değerlendirme konusu ile ilgili eğitim almış olmalarının özellikle yaşamla ilişkilendirme sorularını kullanım sıklıkları arasında anlamlı bir fark olmadığı belirlenmiştir.

Early Childhood Teachers’ Views About the Use of Questions in Early Childhood Education Program Assessment

The aim of this study is to determine the opinions of the pre-school teachers about the frequency of use of evaluation questions in their education programs (descriptive, affective, questions on objectives and questions association with social life). The sample was 323 preschool teachers. Data gathered through screening model and Chi-Square Test χ2 were used for data analysis. It was determined that teachers prefer ‘descriptive questions’ and ‘questions on objectives’ more than ‘affective questions’ and ‘questions association with social life’. Additionally, there was not a significant difference between the frequency of teachers’ use of questions association with social life and having training/seminars on evaluation of young children.
