PENILAIAN HASIL PEMBELAJARAN KEMAHIRAN BERBAHASA INDONESIA DENGAN PENDEKATAN KOMUNIKATIF

Abstract: Assessment of the Indonesian Language Learning Outcomes Using the
Communicative Approach. Since the 1994 Curriculum was launched up to now,
the assessment of the Indonesian language learning outcomes has been directed to
the student’s ability to use Indonesian communicatively in real situations.
However, many teachers still assess such an ability based on the students’
theoretical knowledge, not on their communicative ability. This might happen
because of the teacher’s lack of understanding about the use of the communicative
approach in the Indonesian language learning. This article discusses the assessment
of the Indonesian language learning outcomes using the communicative approach.
The discussion consists of the assessment philosophy, techniques and procedures,
rubrics, and sample test items constructed based on the communicative approach.
Keywords: assessment, communicative approach
