Abstract:

The aim of this research is to develop a successful test to measure the academic achievements of students towards the achievements of the electricity unit in the middle school’s seventh class science course. First, literature scan was carried out, the questions asked at the central examinations were gathered and a question pool consisted of 39 questions was created. Questions with similar characteristics were removed from the test and the number of questions was reduced to 27. The Electrical Energy Success Test (EEBT), which consists of 27 questions, was applied to 255 eighth-class students after the expert opinions and the necessary arrangements were made. The data from the test results were analyzed using SPSS 24 and LISREL programs. Substance analysis and verifying factor analysis have been removed from the two substance tests. The 25 question test reliability rate is 0.787 and the test-up test reliability rate is 0.804. When the verifying factor analysis is done, it is proven that the questions are distributed into the factors "Ampulse Connection Forms" and "Conversion of Electric Energy". The results of the analyses found that the Electrical Energy Success Test (EEBT) consisting of 25 matters developed for 7th class students was a valid and reliable tool.
