Eğitim Bilimleri (Education Sciences) for the KPSS Exam — German candidates
12% of the KPSS test plan. Educational psychology, curriculum development, measurement, and evaluation for KPSS education candidates. Calibrated for German candidates.
For candidates aiming to clear this exam on the first attempt, the difference between Band 6 and Band 7+ — or "passing" and "comfortable margin" — usually comes down to fluency on a small number of high-leverage topics. Eğitim Bilimleri (Education Sciences) sits at roughly 12% of the Kamu Personeli Seçme Sınavı (Public Personnel Selection Exam) content distribution — Eğitim Bilimleri is the specialized content section for candidates applying for teacher positions in public schools through KPSS. It covers educational psychology (Eğitim Psikolojisi), curriculum theory (Program Geliştirme), measurement and evaluation (Ölçme ve Değerlendirme), and guidance and counselling (Rehberlik). Pass rates for the KPSS are published annually by the awarding body and vary by cohort and locale. For German candidates preparing for KPSS, the calibration of study to local context matters: Germany operates Abitur for university entrance, Goethe / TestDaF for German proficiency, and various Cambridge tiers (FCE, CAE) for English.
Common failure modes
These are the patterns that cause most candidates to lose marks on this topic. Recognising them in advance is half the work.
- !Confusing learning theories: Piaget's cognitive stages vs Vygotsky's social learning vs Bloom's taxonomy
- !Misidentifying measurement types: formative vs summative, norm-referenced vs criterion-referenced
- !Confusing guidance (rehberlik) approaches: directive vs non-directive counselling
Study tips
- 1Create a comparison chart for learning theories: Piaget, Vygotsky, Bandura, Skinner, Bruner — key concepts and differences.
- 2Master Bloom's Taxonomy at all levels and be able to identify which level a given educational objective represents.
- 3Study Turkish curriculum terms: kazanım (learning outcome), belirteç (indicator), ünite (unit), modül (module).
- 4Deutsche Kandidaten, die für die KPSS lernen, profitieren von einem klaren Studienplan; deutsche Lerngewohnheiten (systematisches Vorgehen, Karteikartenarbeit) sind hier ein Vorteil.

Bloom's Taksonomi'sinde en üst düzey bilişsel beceri hangisidir?
- ABilgi (Knowledge)
- BUygulama (Application)
- CAnaliz (Analysis)
- DDeğerlendirme (Evaluation)Correct
Why this answer?
In Bloom's original taxonomy, Evaluation (Değerlendirme) is the highest cognitive level — it involves making judgments based on criteria. Anderson & Krathwohl's revised taxonomy places "Create" (Yaratma) above Evaluation. KPSS questions typically test the original Bloom's taxonomy where Evaluation is the apex.
