A qualitative approach has been adopted in order to make an in-depth determination. Data were collected by focus group interview. The interviews were held with two groups of 6 participants each and results were analyzed with content analysis. Inter-coder rating between encoders was found 89.47%. As a result of the research, two themes emerged in parallel with research purpose. These are Chemistry teachers' (i) insufficiencies and (ii) practice problems in M&E. In ¡°insufficiencies¡± theme, it was seen that teachers were most concerned about "developing items" and "alternative assessment methods". The biggest problems are "long and difficult process of M&E" and "pressure of the education system on the M&E". According to results, we propose organizing in-service trainings about developing a valid and reliable test, item development, alternative assessment and graded scoring %K kimya e£¿itimi %K £¿£¿retmen yeterlili£¿i %K £¿l£¿me ve de£¿erlendirme %K soru yazma yeterlilikleri %K alternatif de£¿erlendirme %U http://dergipark.org.tr/balikesirnef/issue/37855/437824
