Akran ve öz değerlendirme uygulamalarının yazma becerilerine etkisinin incelenmesi

Bu araştırma, akran ve öz değerlendirme uygulamalarının 9.sınıf öğrencilerinin yazma becerileri üzerindeki etkisini ortaya koymayı amaçlamaktadır. Araştırmada nitel ve nicel araştırmaların birlikte kullanıldığı karma yöntemlerden “Açıklayıcı Desen” kullanılmıştır. Ankara ilinde bir devlet okulunda gerçekleştirilen araştırmanın çalışma grubunu, akran değerlendirmesine dayalı çalışmaların yürütüldüğü 1. deney grubunda 34, öz değerlendirme yaklaşımına dayalı çalışmaların yürütüldüğü 2. deney grubunda 33, normal eğitim sürecinin devam ettiği kontrol gurubunda ise 34 öğrenci olmak üzere toplamda 102 öğrenci oluşturmaktadır. Deney gruplarına 7 haftalık bir süreç boyunca Fachikov (2005)’un akran ve öz değerlendirme için önerdiği program uygulanırken kontrol gurubu normal öğretim sürecine devam etmiştir. Araştırmanın nicel verilerini elde etmek için yazma performans görevleri ve dereceli puanlama anahtarı kullanılmış, nitel verilerin elde edilmesinde ise Yarı Yapılandırılmış Görüşme Formu kullanılmıştır. Araştırmanın nicel boyutundan elde edilen veriler Bağımlı Örneklemler t-testi ve ANOVA analizleriyle çözümlenirken, nitel boyutu için yapılan görüşmeler içerik analizi yöntemiyle çözümlenmiştir. Araştırma sonunda elde edilen nicel bulgulara göre, 1. deney ve 2. deney gruplarına ait ön test ve son test puanları arasında anlamlı fark bulunurken, kontrol gurubunda anlamlı bir fark bulunmamıştır. Deney ve kontrol gruplarına ait son test sonuçları ise tüm gruplar arasında, akran değerlendirilmesinin yapıldığı 1. deney grubu lehine anlamlı bir fark olduğunu göstermektedir. Araştırma sonucunda elde edilen nitel bulgular da nicel bulguları desteklemektedir. Buna göre akran ve öz değerlendirme uygulamalarının öğrencilerin hem yazma becerilerinin gelişimi üzerinde hem yazma çalışmaları yapmaya yönelik tutum ve ilgileri üzerinde etkili olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.

Examining the Effect of Peer and Self Assessment Practices on Writing Skills

This study aims to reveal how peer- and self-assessment practices influence the writing skills of 9th grade students. The study adopted mixed-methods explanatory design. The participants were 102 students attending a public school in Ankara. The quantitative data were collected through a quasi-experimental method, and qualitative data were collected through a case study. There were three groups of participants in this study: the 1st experimental group in which peer-assessment was carried out with 34 participants; the 2nd experimental group in which self-assessment was conducted with 34 students, and 34 students in the control group. The interventions lasted 7 weeks. Writing performance tasks and rubrics were used to gather quantitative data while a Semi-Structured Interview Form was used to collect the qualitative data. For the analysis, paired samples t-test, ANOVA, and content analysis were used. The findings revealed that there was a significant difference between pre-test and post-test scores of experimental groups in which peer and self-assessments were conducted whereas there was not a significant difference between the scores of the control group. The findings of ANOVA, the post-test results of the experimental and control groups showed that there was a significant difference between all groups in favor of the 1st experimental group in which peer assessment was applied. The qualitative findings of the study corroborate the quantitative findings. Hence, we can conclude that peer and self-assessment practices were effective both in the development of students' writing skills and on their attitudes and interests towards writing.
