Abstract
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of portfolio assessment on statistics achievement. The research was carried out with 7th grade students in two different classes, who are attending to a public school in Fatih, İstanbul-Turkey. A total of 64 students (n= 32 in experimental and n= 32 in control) participated in this quasi-experimental study. Students’ statistics achievement was measured through the researcher-developed Statistics Achievement Test (SAT), which covered data analysis unit. The quantitative data was obtained from the results of pre-test and post-test measurement within the 6-week treatment. The difference between the post-test scores was investigated by controlling pre-test scores and gender. In the experimental group the data analysis unit was carried out in guidance of the current middle school mathematics program plus the portfolio assessment, whereas in the control group only the activities and examples present in the current middle school mathematics program was used. Data were analyzed by performing Paired Samples t-Test, Independent Samples t-Test, and Two-Factor ANCOVA. Results revealed that portfolio assessment, as compared to traditional techniques, had a significant effect on students’ statistics achievement.
