Abstract

Bu araştırmanın amacı okul yöneticilerinin ve öğretmenlerin verileri kullanma ve anlamlandırma becerilerini anlamak için geliştirilen Veri Okuryazarlığı Ölçeği’ni (VOY-Ö) Türkçe’ye uyarlamaktır. Araştırmanın çalışma gruplarını 2021-2022 öğretim yılında Kahramanmaraş ili Onikişubat merkez ilçesinde ilkokul, ortaokul ve lisede görev yapan okul yöneticisi ve öğretmenler oluşturmuştur. Araştırmanın analizleri, amaçlı örnekleme yöntemlerinden maksimum çeşitlilik ve kolay ulaşılabilir uygun örnekleme yöntemi esas alınarak belirlenen çalışma grubu-1’de 207, çalışma grubu-2’de 280 katılımcı ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Ölçeğin yapı geçerliği için Açımlayıcı Faktör Analizi (AFA) ve Doğrulayıcı Faktör Analizi (DFA) kullanılmıştır. Ölçümlerin güvenirliğinin belirlenmesinde ise Cronbach alpha iç tutarlık katsayıları incelenmiştir. AFA ve DFA sonuçları Veri Okuryazarlığı Ölçeğini (VOY-Ö) Türk kültüründe ve Mandinach and Gummer’in teorik çerçevesiyle uyumlu dört faktörde 14 madde ile doğrulamıştır. Sonuç olarak araştırmanın bulguları bu ölçeğin eğitimcilerin veri okuryazarlığı düzeyini ölçmek için büyük ölçüde kabul edilebilir özelikler gösterdiğini ortaya koymuştur.

ADAPTATION OF DATA LITERACY SCALE INTO TURKISH: A VALIDITY AND RELIABILITY STUDY

Abstract

The aim of this research is to adapt the Data Literacy Scale (DLS), which was developed to understand the skills of school principals and teachers in using and interpreting data, into Turkish. The study groups of the research consisted of school principals and teachers working in primary, secondary, and high schools in the central district of Kahramanmaraş province Onikisubat in the 2021-2022 academic year. The analysis of the research was carried out with 207 participants in study group-1 and 280 participants in study group-2, which was determined on the basis of maximum diversity and easily accessible sampling method, which is one of the purposive sampling methods. Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) and Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) were used for the construct validity of the scale. Cronbach alpha internal consistency coefficients were examined to determine the reliability of the measurements. EFA and CFA results confirmed the Data Literacy Scale (DLS) with 14 items in four factors in Turkish culture and compatible with the theoretical framework of Mandinach and Gummer. As a result, the findings of the study revealed that this scale showed largely acceptable features to measure the data literacy level of educators.
