Improving the Competency of High School Teachers in Understanding and Designing Questions Based on Minimum Competency Assessment in Babat Lamongan District
Article Sidebar
Abstract
One of the latest topics in the world of education is the presentation of policies regarding the replacement of the National Examination (UN) into a Minimum Competency Assessment (AKM) and a character survey by the Minister of Education and Culture. With the new policy, all schools and school residents must make preparations as early as possible. Because this policy has never been implemented before, most educators (teachers) do not have sufficient insight into AKM. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct research on teacher competence in understanding and designing AKM-based questions. Teachers will be given a workshop that aims to provide insight and competence for teachers to prepare for the implementation of AKM in the future with the target of mathematics and science teachers at the state high school level in Babat District (SMAN 1 Babat and MAN 2 Lamongan). Workshops and mentoring for teachers are provided to prepare themselves as pioneers in the implementation of AKM who have the ability to understand and design numeracy category questions. The teachers were given pre-test and post-test during the workshop and the results would be compared and analyzed descriptively with a quantitative approach. The results of the study stated that by giving the workshop, there was an increase in the ability of teachers to understand AKM-based questions by 24.19 points. However, in the ability to design AKM questions, there was only an increase of 5.95 points. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out further post-workshop mentoring.Â
