Today, renewable energy sources have become very important in meeting the increasing energy needs of the countries. In parallel, environmental and energy education have emerged as a discipline. The measurement tools to provide information on the level of achivements of preservice teachers on the topic of renewable energy is rather limited. A measurement tool is needed which students' to provide information about the status and level of knowledge renewable energy. The aim of this study is to develop an achievement test consist of multiple choice questions test which has a part renewable energy in the middle school science program. The achievement test that is prepared to provide reliability and validity works is applied to 127 preservice teacher who were educated in Fırat University Faculty of Education Primary Science Science Education Department in the academic year of 2016-2017. In order to determine the validity of this achievement test, it was consulted with four science educators and one of the educational scientists who are expert in their field. Initially achievement test prepared as 35 items, In the direction of expert opinions have evaluated in terms of level suitability, field content, grammar and understandability. Four unsuitable substances have been removed. The questions were then subjected to item analysis. In order to determine the reliability of the achievement test, the Sperman-Brown test used two equivalent half-divide methods and the reliability coefficient ? was found as 0.869 and the Pearson correlation coefficient was found as 0.934. At the end of the reliability and validity analysis, an achievement test that consists of 24 multiple choice questions is improved. As a result of all the analyzes made, it was determined that university students were a valid and reliable measurement tool for measure knowledge about renewable energy
