In the current study, pedagogical formation students' awareness of measurement and evaluation and their views on the topics in the course were determined. The study aims to provide researchers with an careful into the process of restructuring of both pedagogical formation program and this course as part of the program. The research group of this descriptive research consists of 180 pedagogical formation program students from the departments of Turkish Language and Literature and Sociology in the 2014-2015 academic year. When the research group was determined, appropriate sampling method was used for non-arbitrary sampling methods. In the study, students' awareness on the various variables of the course in measurement and evaluation were collected through constructed responsequestions. The scope of the questions; basic concepts in measurement and evaluation (measurement-criterion-evaluation), ıtem types (true-false, long-responded, shortresponded, paired and multiple-choice), problems in the course. To analyze the data, descriptive analysis methods were used. The reliability ratio between the researchers was found to be .85. At the end of the study, it was concluded that most students had some concern over this course at the beginning of the term. However, these worries decreased and the students started to consider the course beneficial to their own career development as they gain different points of view during the term. It is believed that the results and suggestions will increase effectiveness of the course and help researchers and program development specialists in the process of restructuring of the course in the scope of the program. Keywords ÖZETAraştırmada, formasyon programında eğitim alan öğrencilerin ölçme ve değerlendirme dersine yönelik farkındalıkları ve incelenen konularla ilgili görüşleri belirlenmiştir. Araştırmada hem pedagojik formasyon programının hem de program kapsamındaki bu dersin yeniden yapılandırılması ve dikkatli bir biçimde yürütülebilmesi sürecinde araştırmacılara ışık tutmak amaçlanmıştır. Araştırma bir betimleme çalışması olup, 2014-2015 eğitim öğretim döneminde pedagojik formasyon programında öğrenim gören 180 Türk Dili ve Edebiyatı ile Sosyoloji bölümü öğrencileri araştırma grubunu oluşturmaktadır. Araştırma grubu belirlenirken seçkisiz olmayan örnekleme yöntemlerinden uygun örnekleme yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Araştırmada, öğrencilerin programdaki ölçme değerlendirme dersinin farklı değişkenlerine ilişkin farkındalıkları açık uçlu sorularla belirlenmiştir. Soruların kapsamı; ölçme ve değerlendirmedeki temel kavramlar (ölçme-ölçüt-değerlendirme), madde türleri (doğru-yanlış, uzun yanıtlı, kısa yanıtlı, eşleştirmeli ve çoktan seçmeli), ders sürecinde karşılaşılan sorunlar başlıkları altında toplanmıştır. Verilerin çözümlenmesinde ise betimsel analiz tekniğinden yararlanılmıştır. Araştırmacılar arasındaki gözlemler arası uyum oranı .85 olarak hesaplanmıştır. Araştırmada, dönem başında büyük çoğunluğu kaygılı öğrenciler olsa da ders ilerledikçe ve farklı bakış açıları oluştuk...

Countries with well-trained and qualified labor force today make a significant difference with other countries in areas such as economy, education and industry. One of the important reasons for this difference is that these countries have made innovations in the fields of science, technology and education policies as well as economy. STEM, which is composed of the abbreviations of the first letters of the words Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics, is an interdisciplinary approach. The aim of this study is to gather the experimental dissertations examining the effect of STEM education on students’ academic achievements in order to determine the effect of STEM education on academic success and synthesize the study findings. The research was conducted in a screening model. In the study, as there is heterogeneity among the publications included among the scope of the meta-analysis, the size of the impact was calculated utilizing the random effects model. The dissertations examined within the scope of this study were accessed from the Higher Education Institution (HEI) National Study Search System databases using the keywords STEM, academic achievement and experimental model. In this study, dissertations were examined by taking a certain time criterion. A total of 26 dissertations (19 postgraduates and 7 doctoral) examining the effect of STEM education, which is the post-test scores of the experimental and control groups conducted in 2018-2020, on academic achievement were accessed from the database. It was concluded in the study that STEM education has a positive effect on the academic achievements of students.
