Hermawan Raharjo Putro — 2024-12-09

Improving the quality of education is a top priority. However, the current problem is that many schools still need to pay more attention to the quality of education. Based on this, this research aims to analyze the influence of school supervisors in improving the quality of education through the school accreditation process. The approach applied in this research is qualitative, while the data collection technique used combines qualitative and quantitative. The subjects of this research were 40 people (20 teachers and 20 education service staff). The methods used to collect data are document study, observation, and interviews. The instrument used in data collection was a questionnaire sheet. Quantitative data analysis techniques are applied to analyze the quality of school supervisors' performance, including three stages: data condensation, data display, and (3) Conclusion/verification. Quantitative Data Processing is carried out by providing questionnaire instruments and the urgency of handling each variable. The results of this research conclude that there is a gap in the role of school supervisors. This indicates that the school supervisor needs to be more optimal in carrying out his role as a supervisor. To overcome the gap in the role of school supervisors there are several efforts to eliminate the gap that occurs between education staff and teachers regarding the role of school supervisors, including increasing supervision and coaching, strengthening effective communication and collaboration, providing adequate support, developing the skills of school supervisors, and conducting evaluations and continuous improvement.

Application of the Rasch Model to the Evaluation of Biological Problems

Ida Elfira — 2024-12-09

Evaluation of student abilities in Biology subjects often faces challenges in ensuring that the instruments used actually measure what they are supposed to measure. The data analysis used is the Rasch model, which is part of item response theory, offering a more accurate approach in analyzing evaluation data. This model allows the identification of items that are inappropriate or too difficult, as well as providing more in-depth information about individual student abilities. Through analysis of instruments and question items from 30 multiple choice questions that emphasize critical thinking skills, the aim of this research is to assess the quality of Biology questions for class X SMA. Testing was carried out using WinStep software and Rasch modeling analysis on 166 students from five high schools/vocational schools. The research method used is quantitative. The results of the instrument investigation show that the issue has very good dependability and the unidimensionality of the instrument is indicated by unexplained changes in the first differentiation. These results show that the Rasch test can help educators in selecting questions that meet the evaluation criteria and contribute to improving the quality of national education. The implications of this research are By applying the Rasch Model, educators can develop more accurate and fair evaluation tools, which are able to identify individual student difficulties and strengths.
