Abstract

Purpose This research aims to describe the preparation of diagnostic assessment used by English teachers in an Indonesian remote island in Central Sulawesi.   Methodology This research was conducted at two Junior High Schools located far from the city center of Central Sulawesi. The researcher applied a qualitative case study design. A purposive sampling was used to gain the sample with theory of data saturation. The subject of this research was the three English teachers in the schools that implement Merdeka Curriculum. The data were collected through interview, observation and documentation. The data analysis technique used was thematic analysis.   Results/Findings The result of the research showed that the English teachers prepared the diagnostics assessment by scheduling time of assessment, identifying material of assessment and compiling assessment questions or instrument to be used in the implementation of the diagnostic assessment.   Implications The findings of this research underscore the critical importance of developing a curriculum that effectively supports the implementation of diagnostic assessments. Educational institutions and policymakers are encouraged to leverage these insights to create targeted training programs that enhance teachers’ abilities to design and execute diagnostic evaluations. Furthermore, the study highlights the potential for improving the overall quality of English language instruction in remote areas, as understanding the preparatory processes for diagnostic assessments can enable educators to identify students’ learning needs and tailor their interventions more accurately accordingly. Additionally, the research advocates for the adoption of the best practices in diagnostic assessment preparation, suggesting that other schools, particularly those in similar contexts, could benefit from implementing the successful strategies employed by the teachers at these junior high schools. Finally, this study paves the way for future research into the effectiveness of diagnostic assessments in enhancing student learning outcomes, encouraging subsequent investigations into the relationship between such assessments and academic achievement across diverse educational setting

Abstract

Purpose This research aims to find out the impact on the spread of hoaxes on social media, especially TikTok. How the TikTok recommendation algorithm affects the spread of hoax news, how TikTok user behavior, including interaction, sharing and content consumption, is related to the spread and control of hoax news and to find out what impact hoax news spreading via TikTok has on public trust, public opinion and social decisions.   Methodology This research uses descriptive qualitative research methods as the main research methodology. This qualitative descriptive research uses an online survey method in the form of a questionnaire distributed via platforms such as Google Forms. Apart from the survey, face-to-face in-depth interviews were also conducted at a predetermined place. The sampling technique used in this research was purposive sampling.   Result/Findings The finding of this research indicated that a majority of respondent’s report using Tik Tok for 1 to 2 hours, with 26.5% using it for more than 2 hours. The majority of social media users use Tik Tok for entertainment, including dance and music videos (2.9%). However, Tik Tok has also developed into a platform that provides all kinds of information, including hoaxes that can spread widely. In the respondents' opinion, false information is something that is very detrimental if it continues to circulate on TikTok. One respondent stated that TikTok hoaxes have the potential to cause hatred or fear and have the potential to exacerbate political, social or religious conflict.   Implication This research contributed to address this critical gap in the literature by examining the influence of TikTok social media in curbing and filtering hoax news. By conducting a comprehensive analysis of Tik Tok's content ecosystem, user behaviors, and its approach to content moderation, this study aims to shed light on TikTok's role in the broader discourse surrounding miss information and the promotion of factual information in the digital era.
