Classification of Limit, Derivative and Integral Questions Asked in University Entrance Exams According to MATH Taxonomy / Üniversite Giriş Sınavlarında Sorulan Limit, Türev ve İntegral Sorularının MATH Taksonomisine Göre Sınıflandırılması

Abstract

It is important to investigate the quality of the questions in the university entrance exams of subjects such as limit, derivative and integral, which form the basis of advanced mathematics. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to analyze the limit, derivative and integral questions in the university entrance exams according to the MATH Taxonomy. The sample consists of the limit, derivative and integral questions asked in the university entrance exams held between 1966-2019. In this study, document analysis method was used. Within the scope of the research, a total of 363 questions were analyzed. The questions handled within the scope of the study were analyzed and coded by an expert with a doctorate in education, a high school mathematics teacher, and the researcher. The high agreement obtained between the codings shows that the research can be accepted as reliable. Among the questions examined, it was determined that the most questions were asked from the derivative subject and the least from the limit subject. As a result, it is seen that there is a balanced distribution of limit questions according to MATH taxonomy groups, while derivative questions require the most surface learning, questions from group A are asked, and in integral questions, questions are asked from group C, which requires at least deep learning. For this reason, it is recommended that publishing houses and authors preparing secondary school mathematics textbooks and supplementary textbooks, which are an important resource for students preparing for university entrance exams, choose the questions to be included in their sources in a balanced way according to the MATH taxonomy.
