Abstract

Örüntü bilgisi matematiğin düzenini anlamakta
yardımcı olur. Örüntülerin erken matematik öğreniminde kullanımı, matematiksel
düşünce ve ilişkilerin soyutlanması ve genellenmesine yardımcıdır.  Örüntüler hakkında becerilerin ölçülebilmesi
bu alanda yapılacak geliştirme çalışmaları için bir ön koşuldur ancak bu
becerileri değerlendiren ölçme araçlarının sayısı çok sınırlıdır. Bu nedenle bu
araştırmada okul öncesi dönem çocuklarının örüntü becerilerini değerlendirmeyi
amaçlayan bir testin geliştirilmesi ve bu testten elde edilen puanların
geçerlilik ve güvenirliğinin test edilmesi hedeflenmiştir. Yapılan analizler
sonucunda 26 maddelik uzun ve 17 maddelik kısa olmak üzere 2 farklı form
geliştirilmiş ve bu formların okul öncesi dönem çocukların örüntü becerilerini
değerlendirmede geçerli ve güvenilir puanlar ürettikleri ortaya konmuştur.

Development of Preschoolers’ Mathematical Patterning Skills Test: Validity and Reliability Study

Abstract

Patterning knowledge and
skills help to understand the order of mathematics. The use of patterns in
early mathematics learning helps children to abstract and generalize
mathematical thinking and relationships. Measuring the skills of children on
patterning is a prerequisite for further development in this area, but the
number of measurement tools assessing these skills is very limited. Therefore,
the aim of this study was to develop a test for assessment of the patterning
skills of preschool children and to examine its validity and reliability. As a
result of the analysis, two different tests, the 26-item long form and 17-item
short form, were developed. The results of the current study indicated that
these forms produce valid and reliable scores for the assessment of preschoolers’
patterning skills.
