Communication Competency Assessment Instrument (CCAI)

Asesmen Kompetensi Minimum (AKM) or Minimum Competency Assessment has different objectives and formats compared to Ujian Nasional (National Exam), therefore teachers need to upgrade their knowledge of assessment instruments that measure students’ numeracy skills. This training aims to develop teachers' professionalism and competence in developing numeracy assessment instruments. The training was carried out online through a Zoom Meeting with participants of 29 junior high school mathematics teachers in Bogor Regency, West Java. The training was delivered in 2 sessions by 2 mathematics education lecturers from Universitas Negeri Jakarta. The first session with topics of AKM discussed the material domain, cognitive level, and the form of the questions on the AKM questions. The second session was with topics of numeracy skills discussed the benefits and the definition of numeracy skills. At the end of the training, participants were assigned to make a numeracy assessment instrument within 1 week. Participants and presenters join WhatsApp groups as a forum for discussion in the process of doing assignments. This training activity produces an output in the form of a numeracy assessment instrument that is developed based on the AKM question format. Participants are motivated and have ideas to develop numeracy assessment instruments.

Digital Simulations

This study aims to develop authentic instruments in the assessment of Digital simulations to measure student learning skills that are practical and effective. This research uses Research and Development with ADDIE development models. Through the stages of analysis (analysis), design (design), development (development), implementation (implementation), evaluation (evaluation). The research subjects were students of class X SMK Negeri 05 Padang, digital simulation subjects. The research data was obtained through validation instrument sheets, practical questionnaires, and observations. The practicality test results show that the authentic assessment that was developed was very practical with the percentage of practicality of teachers on lesson plans being 88.3% and authentic assessments at 82.3%. This developmental research produced an authentic practical and effective assessment instrument that can be used by teachers in assessing students' skills in school in the learning process.

Penelitian ini bertujuan menghasilkan perangkat pembelajaran materi geometri ruang SMP dengan memanfaatkan alat peraga manipulatif dan lingkungan yang valid, praktis, dan efektif. Penelitian pengembangan ini menggunakan model pengembangan Four-D yang dimodifikasi menjadi tiga tahap: pendefinisian, perancangan, dan pengembangan. Uji pengembangan dilakukan di SMP N 1 Dukuhseti, Pati, Jawa Tengah. Instrumen pengumpulan data meliputi lembar validasi perangkat, lembar observasi keterlaksanaan pembelajaran, lembar penilaian kepraktisan perangkat, dan instrumen penilaian hasil belajar. Analisis data dilakukan secara deskriptif kuantitatif. Hasil penelitian ini berupa perangkat pembelajaran yaitu: RPP, LKS, Lembar Observasi Sikap (LOS) dan Tes Hasil Belajar (THB) dengan tingkat kevalidan 100%. Tingkat kepraktisan LKS, RPP, dan LOS 100% sedangkan tingkat kepraktisan THB 84,36%. Tingkat keterlaksanaan pembelajaran 97%. Tingkat keefektifan RPP dan LKS 81%. Dapat disimpulkan bahwa produk hasil pengembangan yang berupa RPP dan LKS memenuhi kriteria valid, praktis, dan efektif, sedangkan instrumen penilaian yang berupa LOS dan THB memenuhi kriteria valid dan praktis.Kata kunci: alat peraga manipulatif, geometri ruang, lingkungan, pengembangan perangkat. Developing Instructional Materials in Space Geometry for Junior High School Using Manipulative Visual Aids and Environment AbstractThe aims of this research was to result instructional materials in space geometry for junior high school using manipulative visual aids and environment that valid, practical, and effective. This development research using the Four-D development model with modification in three steps: define, design, and develop. The development testing was carried out in SMP N 1 Dukuhseti, Pati, Central Java. The research instruments were a validation sheet, teaching implementation observation sheet, practicality assessment sheet, and competency assessment instrument. The data analysis was conducted quantitative descriptively. This research produced instructional materials including lesson plans, student’s worksheets, observation sheet of attitude, and assessment instrument with the level of validity of the product reached 100%. The degree of practicality lesson plans, worksheets, and observation sheet of attitude were 100%, while the rate of assessment instrument of learning achievement practicality was 84.36%. The level of learning was 97%. The degree of effectiveness of the lesson plans and worksheets products reached 81%. Therefore, it can be concluded that the instructional materials in the form of lesson plans and worksheets were valid, practical, and effective, while the form of assessment instruments observation sheet of attitude, and assessment instrument of learning achievement were valid and practical.Keywords: manipulative visual aid, space geometry, environment, instructional development

The Impact

Evidence-based practice (EBP) combined with quality of care improves patient outcomes. However, there are still difficulties for its implementation in daily clinical practice. This project aims to evaluate the impact of the incorporation of the Advanced Practice Nurse (APN) role on the implementation of EBP at three levels: context, nurses’ perceptions, and clinical outcomes. Mixed-methods study in two phases is proposed. Phase 1: a quasi-experimental design where five APNs are included in five hospitalization wards that are compared with another five similar wards without APNs. Variables from Practice-Environment-Scale-Nursing-Work-Index, Health-Science-Evidence-Based-Practice-Questionnaire, and Advanced-Practice-Nursing-Competency-Assessment-Instrument are used. Clinical outcomes are followed-up with monthly. A descriptive and exploratory analysis is performed. Phase 2: an exploratory qualitative design through focus groups at the intervention wards after one year of APNs implementation. Explicative data are gathered to explain the progression of change and how actors perceive and attribute triggers, barriers, and facilitators for change. An inductive thematic analysis is performed. The inclusion of APN in hospitalization context is insufficiently studied. It is hoped that these figures provide solutions to the multiple barriers in the development of EBP in these sceneries and contribute to resolve the gap between research results and healthcare practice.
