Abstract
Feedback is an important factor used in learning and teaching process. The effective use of feedback
by teachers fosters learning. Therefore, it plays a crucial role to evaluate the feedback system of
teachers according to students’ views. As a result, valid and reliable instruments are required in this
process. This study aimed to develop a scale to evaluate teachers’ feedback usage according to high
school students’ views. A trial form of 44 items in Likert-type was prepared and applied in the fall
semester of the 2016-2017 academic year. The validity and reliability of the scale was conducted on
the data obtained from 220 high school students selected by convenience sampling. Explanatory factor
analysis was conducted to prove the construct validity of the scale. Confirmatory Factor Analysis
(CFA) was conducted to impose the structure on the data. The KMO Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin value was
obtained as 0.87. The value of Cronbach alpha calculated for reliability was 0.84 for this study. In the
confirmatory factor analysis, it was found that the values of the “Teacher Feedback Evaluation Scale”
were acceptable (χ2 / df = 2,05; RMSEA = .069; CFI = .90; RMR = .08). When the values of the other
goodness of fit of the Feedback Evaluation Scale were examined, the values were obtained as GFI =
.84, AGFI = .81, NNFI = .89. Findings related to the validity and reliability show that the scale is a
valid and reliable measurement tool.
