Abstract

Various learning methods are used by teachers in the educational process, one of which is the focus group discussion (FGD) method. If freely translated into Indonesian, FGD means "short collection discussion". This study uses a qualitative research method with a literature study approach. This method was chosen because it allows researchers to explore and analyze various concepts, theories, and findings from previous studies that are relevant to the topic of assessment in education. FGD not only functions as a reflective forum for teachers, but also as a means of data-based decision-making in the learning outcome assessment process. Thus, this method is one of the effective strategies in improving the quality of educational assessment at SDN 50 Kota Bengkulu. In the implementation of Focus Group Discussion (FGD) as a method of evaluating learning outcomes at SDN 50 Kota Bengkulu, there are a number of factors that support its success. However, on the other hand, there are also obstacles that need to be overcome so that FGD can run more optimally and have a significant impact on the quality of learning outcome assessment.
