Historically, mathematics education in Turkey has revolved around the curriculum, textbooks and examinations; this study therefore aims to measure how compatible these components are after the reform movement of 2004. Pair wise comparisons included the following: the time allocation for the geometry learning area in the official mathematics curriculum at upper elementary schools during the post-reform period; the actual number of examples in the new textbook series; and the percentage of geometry questions that make up the total mathematics questions in the SBS examinations (level determination examinations – see below). This study suggests … |
