Practice Exam Assessment Collaboration

By Suryanti, S.Pd., M.Pd. (N Middle School teacher 3 Sanggau)

Practical exam assessment is one of the assessments applied to the curriculum 2013. Not all subjects carry out practical exams in accordance with the Regulation of the Minister of Education and Culture of the Republic of Indonesia number 104 year 2014. The subjects that carry out practical exams consist of: 7 subjects, namely Indonesian language subjects; Religious and Character Education; English; Natural Science; Arts and Culture; physical education, Sport, and Health; and Crafts.

Imagine how much a student will have to prepare themselves in terms of content in the not too distant future, emotional, and funding because it is not uncommon for practical exams to be carried out to require funds to purchase tools and materials. Not to mention the level ke-stress-an and fatigue experienced by children.

It is for this reason and the direction from the Deputy Head of Curriculum to collaborate with several subjects to carry out practical exams, namely English and Crafts subjects. The goals include, among others:

  • The time efficiency of carrying out exams, which should have been several times, is only once for exams in several subjects;
  • Saves energy because the preparation and implementation of taking test scores is done together with other teachers;
  • Costs for preparing tools and materials are more economical due to the implementation of one test for several subjects.;
  • Lastly, which is no less important, comes down to the students, namely not many tests so that children don't get tired and

Challenge

Dalam pelaksanaan ujiann praktik dengan berkolaborasi beberapa mata pelajaran tak lepas dari hambatan dan tantangan, among others:

  • Determine material that is a slice of several subjects, this requires us, teachers to discuss and let go of their own egotism so that they find material which is one of the local wisdoms, namely making compote from ingredients that Sanggau often finds.
  • Building chemistry between colleagues or other teachers in preparation, implementation, and assessment, karena melibatkan guru lain di luar guru-guru mata pelajaran yang berkolaborasi sebagai juri atau tim penilai.
  • Finding the right time for the implementation of the test so that it is done over two days where every day there are two classes that perform the test.
  • Develop students' confidence in making presentations in English.

Action

Preparation

After finding the practical exam theme "Making Compote", guru mata pelajaran Bahasa Inggris dan Prakarya membuat rubrik penilaian dan mensosialisasikan aspek penilaian serta mendiskusikan alat dan bahan yang diperlukan setiap kelompok. Murid juga dilatih public speaking in presenting their respective compote making.

Implementation

At the time of implementation, Students are divided into small groups between 5 or 6 members. Each student gets a presentation of the material, seperti salam pembuka atau penutup, introduce the tools used, materials used, how to make, even answering questions from the English subject Assessment Team.

For Craft subjects, selain bahan dan alat, flavor, texture and presentation are aspects that are assessed. Accurate cooking duration and which ingredients are added first are the most important things because they determine the texture of the compote. Teachers who are not involved in the assessment team also receive an invitation to each group 1 teacher to eat with his group as a guest. Guru tersebut akan memberi komentar dan refleksi atas masakan atau kolak yang dibuat tadi sehingga murid mendapat umpan balik dari hasil kerja mereka.

LESSONS/CHANGES

After the activity takes place, from the reflection results obtained:

  • Teachers who collaborate on practical exams feel happy because the responsibilities they have carried out alone have become lighter because they have friends to discuss and give advice..
  • The students felt happy because the English exam, which had been stressful individually, became a group so they could study together.
  • Like the saying "once rowing"., dua tiga pulau terlampaui”, this is what has been done by collaborating practice exams, one test of two subjects can get the value. This is a commitment from several other subject teachers that in the future they will collaborate not only on practical exams but also on daily learning..
  • What was touching about this activity, guru Bimbingan Konseling mendapatkan seorang anak yang menangis kala makan bersama dengan guru tamu yang tak lain guru BK sendiri. When it was confirmed, it turned out that the student was touched to be able to eat with his teacher, who was actually their parent, at school because he had never felt that way at home.. This was also confirmed by other students. It turns out that the meaning contained in this activity is not only collaboration between teachers but also the closeness of teachers and students which creates a good atmosphere at school.
