Abstract

Process-Oriented Assessment (POA) is an innovative evaluation method focused on formative assessment to enhance student engagement and comprehension in language learning. This study aims to measure the ability of English teachers in using POA at two top-performing high schools in Gorontalo Regency and to provide insights into the challenges and opportunities in its adoption. This research employs a mixed-method approach with an explanatory sequential design to analyze the ability and challenges of POA implementation. The study was conducted in two high schools in Gorontalo Regency, involving two EFL teachers from MAN 1 Gorontalo Regency and four EFL teachers from SMAN 1 Telaga. Participants were selected using purposive sampling from these two leading high schools. Data collection involved a Likert-scale-based questionnaire to gather teachers’ perceptions of the ability of POA implementation, complemented by interviews to explore the challenges faced during its application. Quantitative data were analyzed using independent t-tests to compare and draw conclusions about differences among respondents, while qualitative data were analyzed descriptively to understand, present, and interpret the findings. The results of this study reveal the following findings. Firstly, all teachers were able to implement POA, but its ability varied significantly among English teachers due to differences in background, experience, and challenges in managing assessment techniques. Secondly, the key challenges in applying POA included students' lack of understanding of assessment criteria and transparency, teachers' confusion in utilizing diverse assessment techniques, and an excessive focus on assessment criteria, which distracted students from comprehending the learning material. It is recommended that POA be implemented for certified teachers, flagship schools, and suitable for students with intermediate and above thinking levels that promote equity and recognize student effort. Process-Oriented Assessment (POA) sebagai metode evaluasi inovatif yang fokus pada penilaian formatif untuk meningkatkan keterlibatan dan pemahaman siswa dalam pembelajaran bahasa. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengukur kemampuan guru bahasa Inggris dalam menerapkan POA pada dua sekolah terbaik di Kabupaten Gorontalo dan memberikan wawasan tentang tantangan dan peluang dalam mengadopsinya Penelitian ini menggunakan metode mix method dengan desain penelitian explanatory sequential untuk menganalisis kemampuan penerapan POA dan tantangannya. Penelitian dilakukan pada 2 sekolah yang ada di Kabupaten Gorontalo yang melibatkan dua guru EFL dari MAN 1 Kabupaten Gorontalo dan empat guru EFL dari SMAN 1 Telaga. Pemilihan peserta menggunakan teknik purposive sampling dari dua sekolah menengah atas unggulan di Kabupaten Gorontalo. Dalam pengumpulan data, digunakan kuesioner berbasis skala likert untuk mengumpulkan data tentang persepsi guru mengenai kemampuan penerapan POA. Dalam penelitian ini, digunakan pula wawancara untuk mendalami tantangan dalam penerapan POA. Data Kuantitatif dianalisis dengan independent t-tes untuk membandingkan dan menarik kesimpulan tentang perbedaan yang ada di antara responden. Adapun data kualitatif dianalisis secara deskriptif untuk memahami, menyajikan, dan menginterpretasikan data. Hasil dari penelitian ini mengungkapkan beberapa temuan berikut. Pertama, semua guru dapat menerapkan POA, tetapi kemampuannya bervariasi secara signifikan di antara para guru bahasa Inggris karena perbedaan latar belakang, pengalaman, dan tantangan dalam mengelola teknik penilaian. Kedua, tantangan utama dalam menerapkan POA meliputi kurangnya pemahaman siswa tentang kriteria penilaian dan transparansi, kebingungan guru dalam menggunakan teknik penilaian yang beragam, serta fokus berlebihan pada kriteria penilaian yang mengalihkan perhatian siswa dari pemahaman materi. Disarankan agar POA diimplementasikan untuk guru-guru bersertifikasi, sekolah unggulan, dan cocok untuk siswa dengan tingkat pemikiran menengah ke atas yang mendorong kesetaraan dan mengakui usaha siswa.
