Evaluation of 7th Grade Students’ Mathematical Literacy Skills According to PISA Framework

The aim of this study is to reveal the mathematical literacy skills of seventh grade students according to the PISA Mathematical Literacy Framework. In the study, a special case study from qualitative research methods was used. The participants of the study were 25 seventh grade students studying in the middle school of a public school in Giresun province in the 2022-2023 academic year. ‘Mathematical Literacy Test’ was used as a data collection tool. The data obtained from the analysis were evaluated in accordance with the scoring of PISA questions and subjected to descriptive analysis. As a result of the analysis, it was concluded that the content area in which seventh grade students were most successful was the uncertainty and data area, and the mathematical process with the highest performance was the formulation process. While solving the mathematical literacy questions, it was determined that the students were successful in representation skill, reasoning and showing evidence skills, which are among the basic mathematical skills.
