Abstract
This research aimed at knowing the effectiveness of online learning design with an e-portfolio approach in increasing self-efficacy in speaking ability. Seventy-seven students were involved in this study. They are in the second semester of a vocational college in Business Administration Department in the academic year 2020/2021. This research is experimental research with implementing paired samples t-test as the measurement tool in knowing the effectiveness of e-portfolio based learning by finding the t score and the sig value before and after the implementation of the teaching method. The result of this study showed that e-portfolio based learning had a significant effect on the student's self-efficacy in their speaking ability. It was indicated by the value of the sig and t result from paired samples t-test analysis which was showed 0.000 as the sig value and -20.551 as the t count. The result of sig value which is below 0.05 and the t-count which is above t-table were clear indicators to argue that e-portfolio significantly impacted the student's self-efficacy in speaking ability. In this case, the variables of self-efficacy in speaking ability were improved significantly by the implementation of e-portfolio based learning. Even the implementation of e-portfolio brings many positive impacts on the students, some limitations lie on this method implementation. The limitation of this method lies in the time execution and the number of students who are taught by the lecturer.
Highlights
The implementation of a good learning process with the assistance of online media is handled to be followed by an appropriate online-based assessment method to help students achieve their learning goals
Even there are many strengths of the implementation of e-portfolio on the students learning and career development, the length of time in implementing this method for one topic and the number of students taught by the lecturer are needed taken into consideration for the subject which has many topics to be delivered in one semester. The limitation of this method lies in the time execution and the number of students who are taught by the lectures
The conclusion that can be drawn in this study is e-portfolio based learning had a significant effect on the student's self-efficacy in their speaking ability
Summary
The implementation of a good learning process with the assistance of online media is handled to be followed by an appropriate online-based assessment method to help students achieve their learning goals. Since the main focus is learning by doing, assessing this process requires a different assessment method that considers student's understanding, personal differences, and individual performance when evaluating student's performance. Yastibas and Yastibas (2015) stated that, unlike the traditional assessment method, the new assessment method must be student-centered. Several new ways, such as an e-portfolio was developed to assess learners. In the field of authentic assessment, portfolio development with the help of technology has turned into an electronic portfolio or e-portfolio to help students improve their quality and achieve their planned learning goals (Lukitasari et al, 2014)
