Development and Validation of an Instrument to Measure a Performance of Vocational High School

Abstract

Some evaluation has been carried out in Vocational High Schools (VHSs), but most of it focuses on the documents or passive data rather than the processes happening in VHSs. Thus, this research focuses on the evaluation of VHS performances where the process is initiated with identifying the constructs and developing the instruments of performance evaluation for VHSs with Technology and Engineering expertise programs. Based on the problems found in the field, before conducting the evaluation, the researcher needs to, at first, develop the instrument of evaluation through three stages of development. The first stage is analyzing the concepts related to the evaluation by examining the factors affecting VHS performances. In the second stage, instrument development and instrument analysis (content validation) are conducted with the help of experts. The third stage is performance evaluation in VHSs located in Yogyakarta. The evaluation employs a set of instruments developed by the researchers. This research has produced a set of instruments for performance evaluation, which can be used extensively in VHSs. Based on the evaluation, it is found that the aspects of general management and academic management of the VHSs being studied are considered "Good".

HOTS assessment in circulatory system learning: Validity, reliability, and item quality

“…From this research, an instrument with appropriate indicators was obtained to assess the high level of thinking ability in the material of the circulatory system. The impact of the existence of this instrument for teachers is that it can be used as a means of training learners to familiarize themselves with thinking at a high level and become a collection of quality questions (Utama et al, 2020), for learners can be used to know and train high-level thinking skills (Kholis et al, 2020) and for schools this instrument can be useful to familiarize learners using high-level thinking skills so as to improve the quality of learners (Arifin, 2018;Wilson & Narasuman, 2020).…”

The Quality of Integrating, Rationale & Approach Participation (IRA) Teaching Model Based on Environmental Education: A Research & Development

“…The validation process usually uses a validation sheet/questionnaire that assesses several aspects such as (a) language, (b) learning content, (c) presentation, and others. Model books and learning tools are declared valid or very valid if experts believe that the development product can measure the skills specified in the measured domain [64], [65]. In other words, the cavalry is determined from the average score of the experts, which indicates which category the level of validity is.…”

Character-based 4C Learning Model to Improving Students' Metacognitive Abilities: A Develop Phase of Research & Development

“…However, some experts assess several aspects of the validation test, such as adequacy, coherence, suitability and usability [51]. The product can be proven valid if the experts believe that the development product can measure the skills specified in the measured domain [52], [53].…”
