This study used a qualitative methodology and was divided into three phases for data collection: classroom observation, in-depth interviews, and document reviews. The data were triangulated to ensure validity, and Cresswell's flow model was utilized for analysis (2012). The study's findings demonstrated how crucial teachers’ opinions are regarding classroom-based assessment for individual assessments aimed at improving students' proficiency in the target language.

Teachers address these issues by going over the content again, doing an icebreaker activity, and raising awareness of the pupils' deficiencies. This study comes to the conclusion that the phenomena in the classroom and instructors' views are related

Abstract

Assessment (penilaian) adalah salah satu kegiatan yang harus dilakukan oleh guru selain melakukan kegiatan belajar-mengajar. Penilaian yang efektif harus didukung oleh pemahaman konsep tentang penilaian dan ketrampilan untuk dapat diterapkan dalam pembelajaran. Guru lebih banyak fokus kepada penyiapan pengajaran sehingga tidak dapat merancang penilaian formatif yang efektif dalam pembelajaran Bahasa Inggris. Salah satu keterbatasan guru adalah tidak menggunakan teknologi berbasis software (aplikasi) yang dapat digunakan guna menunjang penilaian guru dalam kelas agar lebih mudah, efektif, dan efisien. Hal ini merupakan keterbatasan bahkan kesenjangan yang terjadi di dunia Pendidikan di Kabupaten Maluku Barat Daya Kota Tiakur. Kendala ini sekaligus menjadi tantangan yang perlu dihadapi oleh seluruh elemen Pendidikan di Kabupaten Maluku Barat Daya, khususnya pihak penanggungjawab Pendidikan dalam mencerdaskan anak bangsa agar memiliki kompetensi yang lebih baik.

Abstract

Siswa di SMPN 11 Ambon menunjukkan rendahnya motivasi dan partisipasi dalam pembelajaran Bahasa Inggris, yang disebabkan oleh metode pengajaran yang monoton dan kurang kontekstual. Untuk menjawab tantangan tersebut, kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini dirancang dengan pendekatan berbasis praktik yang menyenangkan dan partisipatif. Tujuan kegiatan adalah meningkatkan minat belajar Bahasa Inggris melalui integrasi media interaktif berupa lagu anak-anak, permainan edukatif, dan film pendek. Metode pelaksanaan terdiri dari empat tahap: identifikasi kebutuhan melalui observasi dan diskusi dengan guru, persiapan media dan materi, implementasi langsung di kelas, serta refleksi dan evaluasi. Lagu digunakan untuk melatih pelafalan dan memperkaya kosakata, permainan edukatif seperti kompetisi mengeja mendorong interaksi dan kepercayaan diri, sedangkan film pendek dimanfaatkan untuk membangun kemampuan berpikir kritis dan pemahaman nilai moral dalam konteks Bahasa Inggris. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan peningkatan signifikan dalam antusiasme, keberanian berbicara, dan keterlibatan siswa. Evaluasi dilakukan secara kualitatif melalui observasi dan wawancara informal. Kegiatan ini terbukti efektif dan relevan dengan kebutuhan siswa, serta berpotensi untuk direplikasi sebagai model pembelajaran kontekstual di sekolah lain.
