How Are The Pre-Service Teachers' Attitude Levels Towards Educational Measurement And Evaluation Course And Does It Differ According To The Demographic Characteristics?

In this study, the claims that the attitudes toward the course are low and that they are affected by demographic characteristics are examined. This study was conducted with the data obtained from 214 pre-service teachers who voluntarily participated to this study. On the contrary to the claims, it is found that the pre-service teachers' attitudes were at medium level. The gender and type of graduated universities do not make a difference on the attitudes points. But being graduated from a department which is making admissions with a quantitative score, makes a difference on the attitude points in contrary to qualitative departments. (C) 2015 The Authors.
