Abstract

Since the discontinuation of national examinations (UN) in 2020, the Indonesian Government introduced the Minimum Competency Assessment (Asesmen Kompetensi Minimum-AKM) to assess students' fundamental abilities. Consequently, teachers are pivotal in integrating AKM-based reading literacy questions to enhance students' reading skills. This study aims to explore teachers' perceptions, practices, and assessment literacy needs concerning teaching and assessing students' reading literacy based on AKM. Ten EFL junior high school teachers participated in interviews. Findings revealed varying perceptions among teachers regarding AKM. While some supported the policy for its positive impact on students and learning, others doubted its effectiveness for certain reasons. In terms of teaching and assessment practices, most teachers partially integrate the three components of AKM reading literacy into their classrooms. They also utilize various stimuli and question types similar to those in AKM, yet complex multiple-choice assessments are underutilized. Lastly, teachers expressed diverse literacy assessment needs, including strategies for teaching reading, designing critical reading questions, creating stimulus materials, gaining AKM knowledge, enhancing student interest in reading, and identifying intended learning outcomes to improve their teaching and evaluation of students' literacy.

Abstract

Recently, there has been an enhancement in the utilization of online peer assessment in the classroom and other language learning settings. This mixed-method study investigated EFL students' perceptions and practices of implementing online peer assessment. 66 senior and junior high school students were asked to fill out the closed-ended questionnaire and 15 students consented to fill the open-ended questionnaire. The survey data were analyzed using the Rasch Rating Scale Model with the assistance of Winsteps software; while the open-ended questionnaires were analyzed using thematic analysis. Results indicated that students showed positive and negative attitudes on practicing online peer assessment, perceived fairness of peer comments, and described personal learning experiences. Besides, in perceiving affective feedback, students showed a positive attitude toward online peer assessment; meanwhile, they had a negative attitude toward the system as they faced difficulty dealing with technical problems. These findings provide significant evidence of how the EFL students perceived the implementation of online peer assessment in the learning process.Keywords: Assessment; online peer assessment, students’ perception, EFL students.

Abstract

Self-regulated learning (SRL) is an essential skill for university students, empowering them to manage their academic endeavors through goal-setting, self-monitoring, and reflection. This study explores the implementation of SRL strategies to promote learner autonomy, focusing on the interplay of technology, culture, and education. Using qualitative methods, the research analyzed data from interviews, observations, and document analysis involving students and educators. Findings reveal that while students excel in goal-setting (75%), engagement in monitoring (60%) and reflection (25%) remains limited, inhibiting the full SRL cycle. Challenges such as unfamiliarity with SRL (60%), poor time management (50%), and inadequate feedback (40%) further hinder adoption. Educators emphasize SRL in feedback and goal-setting (80%) but struggle with embedding it comprehensively in curricula (50%). The study highlights technology's potential to scaffold SRL through tools that enhance feedback, progress tracking, and personalized learning. To foster learner autonomy, the research recommends structured training for students, professional development for educators, and curriculum realignment to address cultural and systemic barriers. These insights aim to advance inclusive, learner-centered environments in higher education
