Forms and Techniques of Learning Evaluation Instruments in Elementary School
type: item
description: This study aims to comprehensively examine the forms of learning evaluation instruments and evaluation techniques applied in Islamic Elementary Schools (MI/SD), including the problems and trends in their implementation. The research method used is a literature review by examining relevant national scientific journal articles published between 2017 and 2025. Data were obtained through searching and selecting literature discussing learning evaluation, assessment instruments, authentic assessment, and the use of technology in learning evaluation at the elementary education level. Data analysis was conducted descriptively and qualitatively through content review and synthesis of previous research findings. The results show that the forms of learning evaluation instruments in MI/SD theoretically include test and non-test instruments that assess students' cognitive, affective, and psychomotor aspects. However, in practice, learning evaluation is still dominated by written tests oriented towards lower-level cognitive abilities. Non-test evaluation techniques, authentic assessment, and formative evaluation have not been optimally implemented due to limited teacher understanding, assessment subjectivity, administrative burden, and the lack of use of standardized rubrics. Furthermore, the use of technology in learning evaluation is growing, but it still tends to replace conventional techniques without significant innovation. This study concludes that strengthening teacher competencies and institutional support is needed to develop more varied, authentic, and appropriate forms and techniques for learning evaluation instruments tailored to the characteristics of MI/SD students to improve the quality of learning processes and outcomes.

The Effectiveness of Group Guidance Using the Scaling Technique in Improving Students’ Academic Self-Concept
type: item
description: Background - Based on the researcher’s observations at the Jabal Rahmah Mulia Plus Junior High School Boarding School, it was found that students exhibited a low level of academic self-concept. A low academic self-concept may cause students to become easily discouraged, lose their motivation to learn, and be reluctant to participate actively in class because they perceive themselves as less intelligent than their peers. Academic self-concept refers to an individual’s perception, evaluation, and belief in their own abilities within the academic domain. Purpose - This study aims to determine whether group guidance using the scaling technique is effective in improving students’ academic self-concept. Method/approach - This study employed a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design using a one-group pretest–posttest model. The participants consisted of eight students with low levels of academic self-concept, selected through purposive sampling. The research instrument used in this study was an academic self-concept questionnaire. Findings - The results of this study indicate that group guidance services using the scaling technique are effective in improving students’ academic self-concept. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test, which yielded a Z value of -2.527 with a p-value of 0.012. Since the p-value < 0.05, it can be concluded that there is a significant difference between the pre-test and post-test scores. Conclusions - Group guidance services using the scaling technique can be utilized as a form of intervention to enhance students’ academic self-concept. This study is also expected to serve as a reference for the implementation of guidance and counseling services in schools, particularly in addressing psychological issues related to students’ academic aspects. Novelty/Originality/Value - This study offers novelty by emphasizing the effectiveness of group guidance using the scaling question technique in improving academic self-concept…

Policy Analysis of the Jakarta Smart Card Program in Elementary Schools
type: item
description: This study aims to analyze the Jakarta Smart Card (KJP) Program policy at SDN KP 11 JT, which includes the planning, implementation, and evaluation of the program. The KJP Program is an effort by the Jakarta Provincial Government to ensure access to education for students from underprivileged families through educational cost assistance, this action also driven by the fundamental right of every person to receive education. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation. The informants consisted of the school principal, teachers, school operator, and parents of KJP recipients. The results of the study show that the role of the school in planning is limited to data validation from DTKS and outreach to parents. In the implementation stage, the school provides guidance on fund usage and conducts informal monitoring through homeroom teachers. Evaluation is carried out periodically, although the school's authority over program implementation is limited. The KJP Program is considered to have a positive impact on students' educational continuity and ease the economic burden on families. This study recommends the need to strengthen parental education and a more formal monitoring system so that the aid is well-targeted and effective.
