Abstract
The aim of this study was to compare the relationship between primary school 4th grade students’ self-esteem and educational achievement with regard to two models of descriptive-qualitative evaluation and traditional evaluation in Sarāvān (Sistān and Baloochestān province). The research sample consisted of 310 students who were selected through multistage cluster sampling method. Then, they were divided in two groups; one with descriptive-qualitative evaluation model and the other with traditional evaluation model (155 in each group). The research instruments were Cooper-Smith Self-Esteem questionnaire and educational achievement tests in mathematics, science, and Persian language. An independent samples t-test was also used to analyze the data. The results showed that there is a significant difference between the educational achievements of the two groups. It means that the students’ amount of learning and educational achievement in the group with descriptive-qualitative evaluation model was more than the other group. However, there was no significant difference between students’ self-esteem in the two groups with descriptive-qualitative and traditional evaluation models.
