In high education, assessment components are very important as condition the student’s success. Such components must involve several issues including soft and hard skills. The quality of education will depend on the alignment of such skill and their assimilation by students. We present a course taught in Portuguese, belonging to the graduation of Accounting and Administration, that covers several assessment tasks such as oral presentation, written exams, operationalization of tasks, assessment of physical dossiers, punctuality and attendance, ethical behaviour, and company management report. Data were collected in 2019 thought to triangulate methods, namely documental analyses, direct observation, and paper questionnaires. We aim to evaluate the degree of importance perceived by students for each evaluation component. We conclude that the students consider all of the components very important, attributing less importance to hard skills, namely the multidisciplinary contents evaluated thought written exams. This paper contributes to higher education studies by presenting the alignment of an assessment model and students.

Introduction:the article is devoted to modern methods of learning outcomes assessment. As the authors of the article show, recently the evaluation of learning outcomes is inextricably linked with the quality of education provided by an educational institution. It is noted that today there is no single interpretation of the concept “quality of education”. Due to the introduction of a competence-based approach, graduates now form not just a certain amount of knowledge and skills, but the ability to use it, to apply the experience gained in practice, so modern assessment should be fundamentally new and different from traditional methods.Materials and methods:the article identifies the features of the competency assessment system. The basic provisions of the assessment methodology were established and on their basis we identified the components of the model model of the automated assessment of professional competencies. Identified principles for constructing a competency assessment modelResults:the article analyzes the existing modern assessment tools. Among them, the methods characteristic of the authentic approach were singled out, as well as the advantages of using the electronic platform Moodle for the evaluation procedure. A new system for assessing the quality of the educational process, a point-rating system for evaluating the results of the work of the trainer, is being considered.Discussion and Conclusions: The article discusses existing tools and technologies for assessing learning outcomes, which have many advantages and their combined use makes it possible to simplify the assessment process as much as possible, to make it more convenient and intensive. The proposed recommendations for the evaluation of educational results favor not only the correct assessment of the results of the educational process, but also the ongoing monitoring of the development of professional competencies.

National Education Standards

One of the main problems in the field of education in Indonesia to date is quality and access. The decline in the results of the UN 2017 and APK to the next level indicates that a more comprehensive and affordable education model is needed. Dormitory education models in the form of boarding schools can implement a comprehensive-holistic education program including religion, academic development, the ability to survive (soft skills and hard skills), the insight of the Unitary Republic of Indonesia (NKRI), and building global insight. Considering the importance of boarding schools, up to now many boarding schools have been established but little research has been conducted on the conditions of their achievement based on the National Education Standards. Based on this, the purpose of this study was to analyze the achievement of boarding schools in an effort to improve access and quality of education seen from the National Education Standards (SNP). This research method uses purposive sampling by taking a sample in the Province of South Sumatra in 2017. The unit of analysis in this study is boarding schools in South Sumatra Province. Based on the achievement of boarding schools in South Sumatra Province, which consists of aspects of policy in the area about the existence of boarding schools, grades values of boarding schools, and collaboration with outside parties indicate that the existence of boarding schools can overcome the problems of access and quality of education in South Sumatra Province. Regarding access, students in remote areas have been provided with SMK Negeri 1 Gelumbang and for special access to athletes who need time and special curriculum, there is a Sriwijaya State Sports Middle School. To overcome the problem of efforts to improve the quality of education, there have been 17 Palembang State Senior High Schools and South Sumatra State High Schools which have educators and education personnel, learning and care curricula as well as very adequate facilities and infrastructure.
