The result of this study is that the implementation of an authentic assessment of class XI on the subjects of the Qur'an hadith at MI Al-Islam Giwangan Yogyakarta has been carried out well, covering the assessment of the cognitive, affective, and psychomotor domains. In the cognitive domain, the teacher uses assignment techniques, quizzes, midterm exams, and final exams. Specifically for the affective domain, the teacher uses observation, self-assessment, and peer-assessment techniques. The psychomotor domain uses the technique of expressing opinions, discussions, and rearranging the truncated verses, both hadith and projects. While the evaluation that needs to be improved is the lack of enthusiasm for learning for students and inadequate classrooms for students.

Exploring the principles of English assessment instruments

Abstract The instruments language teachers employ to assess student learning are rarely studied and they constitute a significant source of input of how learning and teaching are conceived. The aim of this research is to analyze 205 assessment instruments created by English teachers. This is an exploratory case study, in which the assessment principles of Authenticity, Validity, Fairness, Reliability and Practicality were analyzed within the context of the assessment instruments. The 205 assessment instruments were analyzed by using an analytic rubric, which considered the language assessment principles as criteria. Through the different analyses, it is possible to conclude that traditional assessment was favoured over authentic assessment and four different clusters reveal that language assessment principles manifest in different degrees in each type of instrument. Interestingly, although language learning is mainly about how people try to communicate with others, teachers are still stressing the assessment of grammar and vocabulary knowledge instead of helping students develop the skill of foreign language communication through key authentic assessment, self-assessment and peer-assessment techniques and procedures.

FOPA-MC: fuzzy multi-criteria group decision making for peer assessment

Massive Open Online Courses are gaining popularity with millions of students enrolled, thousands of courses available and hundreds of learning institutions involved. Due to the high number of students and the relatively small number of tutors, student assessment, especially for complex tasks, is a typical issue of such courses. Thus, peer assessment is becoming increasingly popular to solve such a problem and several approaches have been proposed so far to improve the reliability of its outcomes. Among the most promising, there is fuzzy ordinal peer assessment (FOPA) that adopts models coming from fuzzy set theory and group decision Making. In this paper we propose an extension of FOPA supporting multi-criteria assessment based on rubrics. Students are asked to rank a small number of peer submissions against specified criteria, then provided rankings are transformed in fuzzy preference relations, expanded to obtain missing values and aggregated to estimate final grades. Results obtained are promising if compared to other peer assessment techniques both in the reconstruction of the correct ranking and on the estimation of students’ grades.

Building blocks play: Model reconstruction, teacher’s guidance and early childhood creativity

Teachers in ECE (Early Childhood Education) should have the knowledge and skills in guiding children when playing blocks, but this is not shared by most PAUD teachers in Indonesia. Therefore, this study develops a block play model that refers to the PKPK model from Hirsch and Dodge with the adjustment of conditions in Indonesia. This research is a research and development (R&D) that seeks to develop, refine (re-construct), test, and validate Masnipal-models that are easy for teachers to use and effectively develop children's creativity. This study begins with testing the PKPK model to a group of subjects to obtain data about the ability of teachers to understand and apply the model. After revisions and improvements, the model of reconstruction results was further tested. Research subjects were PAUD teachers in Cianjur (n = 42) and Bandung (n = 78). Data collection uses observation and peer assessment techniques and data analysis uses descriptive analysis techniques. The novelty of this study is the resulting Masnipal-model that facilitates PAUD teachers in Indonesia in guiding children to develop creativity through block play.

This study was designed to describe the authentic implementation of HOTS based on SD Negeri 13/1 Rengas Condong, Muara Bulian. This study uses qualitative types of phenomenology. Phenomenology is a type of research that discusses, describes, explains related to the phenomena that occur. The sampling technique was purposive sampling and the informants in this study were VD class teacher SDN 13 / I Rengas Condong. Data collection is taken by observation, interview, and collection techniques. Data analysis techniques were performed using qualitative models from Miles and Hubberman (reduction, display, data verification). The results showed that the classroom teacher had implemented authentic. While the authentic resent that the teacher has done are: 1). Attitude assessment is only done by observation techniques, while peer assessment and self-assessment techniques are not carried out on the grounds that the teacher manages the class and difficulties with the assessment criteria based on the rubric on the attitude assessment instruments in the book; 2). Further Attention. The questions given by the teacher to students are not in accordance with HOTS, this is because the teacher is only fixated on existing books and does not develop questions based on HOTS; 3). Related to the expertise and projects that have been carried out in practicum activities and student group work. Based on these results, it is undeniable that the HOTS-based authentic practice conducted by the VD grade teacher SDN 13/1 Rengas Condong, Muara Bulian has been going quite well.

Formative assessment practices and children’s singing accuracy: A mixed methods inquiry

The purpose of this mixed methods study was to determine the effect of formative assessment strategies on second grade students’ singing accuracy and to examine how music educators planned for and enacted these practices. Student participants ( n = 63) were divided into three groups over a six-week period: (a) a partial treatment group where the teacher used data from the pretest to improve areas of singing weakness; (b) a full treatment group where the teacher used data to improve areas of weakness and engaged students in self- and peer-assessment techniques; and (c) a control group who received no formalized treatment. Linear regression analysis indicates that the “partial treatment” group had the largest gains in singing accuracy, but the case study analysis revealed that the teachers’ knowledge and values mediated their enactment of these practices as they adopted and adapted them in varied ways. The “partial treatment” teacher’s motivation and proclivity for creating new assessment practices indicates that gains in this group’s singing accuracy may have been due to teacher effects and not the strategies themselves. Implications for teacher professional development and practical considerations for embedding meaningful formative assessment in music contexts are provided.
