Abstract

Mathematics, by nature, has a spiral structure. The fact that the students fail to acquire an achievement in the mathematics course negatively affects other achievements. Therefore, students' mathematics failure continues exponentially. In this context, it is important to identify and eliminate students’ weaknesses, if any, with the formative assessments in the learning process. The present study aimed to improve the success level of the students with the formative assessment-based teaching practice about circle and circular region in secondary school seventh-grade mathematics teaching and implement an exemplary application for formative assessment-based teaching. Since the study sought to evaluate the learning process of the students and eliminate the weaknesses identified in the process, an action research design, one of the methods of qualitative research, was used. The study was carried out with 34 seventh-grade secondary school students. Data were collected and analyzed descriptively through observation, interview and various formative assessment tools used in the process. At the end of the three-week implementation period, substantial improvement was observed in the achievements of low and medium-achieving students, and the overall success of the students changed positively at the end of the process.
基于形成性评估的数学教学应用实例
数学在本质上具有螺旋式结构。学生未能在数学课程中取得一项成绩,会对其他成绩产生负面影响。因此,学生的数学失败会以指数形式持续下去。在这种情况下,在学习过程中通过形成性评价发现并消除学生的薄弱环节(如果有的话)就显得尤为重要。本研究旨在提高学生在中学七年级数学教学中关于圆和圆周率的形成性评价教学实践的成功水平,并实施形成性评价教学的示范应用。由于本研究旨在对学生的学习过程进行评价,并消除在此过程中发现的薄弱环节,因此采用了定性研究方法之一的行动研究设计。研究对象是 34 名七年级中学生。通过观察、访谈和在这一过程中使用的各种形成性评价工具,收集和分析了描述性数据。在为期三周的实施期结束时,观察到成绩较差和中等的学生的成绩有了实质性的提高,学生的整体成就在实施过程结束时也发生了积极的变化。
