Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study aimed to establish an empirical foundation for developing an automated scoring system for four-tier diagnostic tests in physics education by mapping current research on tiered diagnostic instruments and identifying the practical scoring challenges teachers face in classroom misconception assessment. Methodology: A two-phase sequential design was used. A systematic literature review followed the PRISMA protocol across Scopus, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar (compiled in Mendeley), with record screening managed in Rayyan and narrative synthesis of the selected studies, complemented by semi-structured interviews with four junior high school science teachers, analyzed thematically. Main Findings: Of 87 four-tier diagnostic studies, only 12 (13.8%) incorporated digital or automated elements, and most digital systems functioned merely as test-delivery platforms while misconception analysis remained manual. Interviews confirmed four recurring barriers: a heavy manual scoring burden, delayed feedback, difficulty distinguishing genuine understanding from guessing, and the need for a simple and accessible automated system. Teachers consistently requested a simple system generating immediate diagnostic results and misconception classifications. Novelty/Originality of this study: Unlike prior reviews that emphasize instrument construction, this study integrates systematic review evidence with concrete teacher needs to justify an accessible, low-tech automated scoring system built on Google Forms and Google Sheets, reframing the central barrier of four-tier assessment as scoring complexity rather than instrument design.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study aims to reconstruct the concept of educational human resource evaluation (SDMP) in the algorithmic era by examining how digital transformation and data-based governance reshape teacher performance assessment, professional accountability, and institutional decision-making. Methodology: This study employed a mixed-methods approach using an explanatory sequential design. The study involved 55 participants, including teachers, institutional leaders, and digital system developers, selected through purposive sampling from five educational institutions in Indonesia. Quantitative data were obtained from digital performance evaluation records (2022–2024), while qualitative data were collected through semi-structured interviews, document analysis, and direct observation of digital evaluation systems. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Pearson correlation analysis with SPSS, while qualitative data were analyzed using reflexive thematic analysis. Main Findings: The findings indicate that algorithmic systems enhance transparency and consistency in educator performance measurement, with the adoption rate of digital evaluation systems reaching 82.3% across institutions. A significant positive correlation was found between digital technology use and performance evaluation scores (r = 0.62, p < 0.01). However, the results also reveal that algorithmic evaluation systems tend to prioritize measurable digital activities, potentially overlooking educators' social context, pedagogical depth, and professional values. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study introduces the concept of algorithmic reflexivity as a new evaluative framework in educational management. The framework emphasizes integrating algorithmic analytics with human professional judgment, encouraging educational institutions to critically reflect on the ethical, human-centered, and data-driven implications of algorithmic SDMP evaluation.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study examines how emotional intelligence and digital competence jointly influence teacher performance through the mediating role of learning effectiveness in private elementary schools in Cilegon, Indonesia. It addresses a key gap in prior research by adopting a process-oriented perspective to explain how teacher competencies are translated into professional performance. Methodology: A cross-sectional survey was conducted involving 243 teachers selected using proportional stratified random sampling. Data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with a two-stage higher-order approach to capture the multidimensional nature of the constructs and their structural relationships. Main Findings: The results indicate that emotional intelligence and digital competence both have significant positive effects on teacher performance. Emotional intelligence strongly predicts digital competence and contributes to learning effectiveness, while digital competence enhances instructional quality. Learning effectiveness partially mediates the relationships between competencies and performance, demonstrating that teacher capabilities influence outcomes both directly and through teaching–learning processes. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study contributes by proposing an integrative competency framework that positions emotional intelligence as a foundational resource for digital competence and identifies learning effectiveness as a key mediating mechanism. It extends existing models by offering a process-based explanation of how competencies translate into teacher performance, providing both theoretical advancement and practical insights for teacher development in the digital era.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study examined the effectiveness of GASING (Gampang, Asyik, dan Menyenangkan) method training on elementary school teachers’ content knowledge of basic arithmetic operations, namely addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, in West Manggarai Regency, East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia. Methodology: A pre-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design was employed. Fifty-five elementary school teachers in West Manggarai Regency participated in a 10-day (80-hour) GASING training program. A content knowledge test (Cronbach's alpha = 0.89) was administered as the measurement instrument. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test, Hake’s normalized gain (N-gain), and Cohen's d, processed with SPSS version 26. Main Findings: Teachers’ content knowledge improved substantially following training, with mean scores rising from 31.00 to 72.09 out of 100, more than double the pretest level. This gain was statistically significant (Wilcoxon Z = −6.441, p < 0.001) and represented a very large practical effect (Cohen's d = 2.94), indicating the improvement was not only reliable but also substantively meaningful. Normalized gain analysis (N-gain = 0.59, medium category) showed that 96.4% of teachers achieved moderate-to-high learning gains, suggesting the training was effective across nearly the entire cohort rather than only for a subset of participants. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study extends the existing GASING literature, unlike prior studies that centered on student learning outcomes or general teacher motivation, this study contributes targeted evidence on teacher professional development in basic arithmetic instruction, offering a replicable, low-resource training model applicable to similarly under-resourced regions in eastern Indonesia.
