摘要:The measurement and evaluation constitute an important part of science education. Therefore, it is particularly important that teachers have sufficient knowledge about the measurement and evaluation in terms of quality of education. In this study, to what extent the questions chemistry teachers used in the examinations reflected the target behaviors in the chemistry learning program in high schools and which criteria the teachers used in determining the examination questions were investigated. For this purpose, the questionnaire and document analysis were conducted. 389 examination questions were gathered from 14 chemistry teachers. In addition, a questionnaire consisting of 15 open-ended items related to measurement tools they used and quality of the questions in these tools was administered to the teachers. Results showed that the teachers in the sample group did not have sufficient knowledge on the measurement and evaluation and did not take into consideration the target behaviors.
