Eğitim Bilimleri (Education Sciences) for the KPSS Exam — Lagos candidates

12% of the KPSS test plan. Educational psychology, curriculum development, measurement, and evaluation for KPSS education candidates. Calibrated for Lagosian candidates.

If you have already studied this content from a textbook, you know the material. The question this page answers is whether you can apply it under exam conditions. 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 Lagos candidates preparing for KPSS, the calibration of study to local context matters: Lagos is West Africa's densest exam centre — JAMB UTME, WAEC, IELTS, and TOEFL all operate large weekly sessions. Pearson VUE Lagos serves NCLEX, GRE, and GMAT candidates region-wide.

Pass rates for KPSS (Lagos, Nigeria) are published periodically by the awarding body.

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).
  • 4JAMB UTME is delivered as CBT only — book your nearest CBT centre (Yaba, Surulere, Ikeja) early; centres outside Lagos State require interstate travel.
  • 5IELTS speaking and listening sessions in Victoria Island fill 6 weeks ahead during peak migration season (May–August). Book a Lekki or Ikeja slot if VI is full.
  • 6For NCLEX/GRE/GMAT: the Pearson VUE Ikeja centre is the most reliable NG site; bring a backup ID and arrive 90 minutes early — Lagos traffic is the most common cause of missed slots.

    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.
