Özet

Revealing the effect of the learning-teaching process on reading literacy is essential

as it can undergo intervention and as it is one of the essential elements of the

curriculum development process. The purpose of this study is to investigate the

differences between low and high-performing schools in Turkey concerning the

teaching and learning process using PISA 2018 data set. The PISA 2018 reading

literacy test and student questionnaire were used as data collection tools. Descriptive

analysis and Binary Logistic Regression were performed. Regression analysis

indicated that disciplined classes, transfer of knowledge, mental readiness, and

limitation of mental effort positively affected students’ reading skills. On the other

hand, adequate support had adverse effects on students’ reading skills.
