Abstract

Evaluation of learning is crucial in education to measure student achievement and provide feedback to students and educators. Evaluation must adhere to the principles of comprehensiveness, continuity, and objectivity. One method to assess learning quality is through the end-of-semester examination (PAS). This research highlights the importance of Moderate Order Thinking Skills (MOTS) in developing students' cognitive abilities, particularly in Arabic language learning. MOTS helps students understand and apply lesson content. This study analyzes Arabic PAS questions for eighth-grade students at MTs Ittihad Samarinda based on MOTS. The research aims to evaluate PAS question quality and provide a basis for future improvements, enhancing the quality of Arabic learning. A descriptive qualitative approach is used to understand phenomena deeply. The content analysis method is applied to relevant documents and records. The primary data source is Arabic PAS questions for the 2023/2024 academic year at MTs Ittihad Samarinda, collected through documentation and interviews. Analysis of 40 PAS questions shows 32.5% are LOTS, 57.5% are MOTS, and 10% are HOTS, focusing on Arabic syntax and vocabulary. This suggests PAS questions are geared towards understanding and application (MOTS) rather than analysis and evaluation (HOTS). Future PAS question development should balance LOTS and MOTS for junior high school level to improve assessment quality.

Abstract

This research falls under the category of descriptive qualitative research, aiming to systematically, realistically, and accurately uncover results by explaining each discovered aspect. The study focuses on understanding criterion-referenced assessment (CRA) and its application at Muslim Cendekia Batu Elementary School. The data in this research comprises primary and secondary data. Primary data were directly obtained from the research subjects, namely the Arabic language teachers at Muslim Cendekia Batu Elementary School, while secondary data were acquired from observations and document studies relevant to the research topic. Data collection was conducted through interviews and documentation. After data collection, the analysis was performed using descriptive analysis techniques according to Miles and Huberman. This technique involves three steps: (1) data reduction, which includes collecting, filtering, and systematically organizing data; (2) data display, which involves identifying meaningful patterns and relationships to draw conclusions; and (3) conclusion drawing or verification, which entails summarizing and verifying the results obtained from the analyzed data Criterion-referenced assessment (CRA) is a measurement method using specific standards where students are compared against predetermined standards within learning objectives. The purpose of CRA is to accurately measure the achievement of competencies set as success criteria, identifying what each individual has mastered and not mastered. CRA is applied in Arabic language learning at Muslim Cendekia Batu Elementary School through various methods, including project assessments and the results of daily tests and final exams.
