Daftar Isi:
- One of the tasks of Indonesian vocational school teachers is to correct the assessment of learning outcomes and analyse them. The assessment activities that must be carried out by teachers are performance assessments, self-assessments, portfolio assessments, daily assessments, midterm assessments, end of semester assessments, competency level exams, and school exams. For the majority of teachers, these activities are too administrative because the results must be corrected and analysed. The teacher makes the questions and corrects the assessment of learning outcomes still using the manual method. In fact, it is very rare for teachers to analyse the results of their assessment. Therefore, the research objectives are: 1) to improve teacher competence in analysing the learning outcomes of Indonesian vocational students; 2) to make effective the process of the ZipGrade�assisted learning outcomes assessment. Quasi-experimental, the one�group pretest-posttest design was adopted to complete the research. The survey questionnaire was designed for exploring the perceptions of teachers and students the effectiveness of using ZipGrade in the learning outcomes assessment. The findings revealed that the teacher had positive experiences about how to analyse the assessment of learning outcomes. The teacher is greatly helped by ZipGrade to effectively correct student answers. Students argue that the using of ZipGrade-based android answer sheets has simplified the filling process. The teachers explained that the analysis of ZipGrade student learning outcomes assessment made their work easier. ZipGrade has helped him/her by making correcting students' answers very easy and effective. In addition, ZipGrade provides information on the results of the validity analysis, the level of difficulty of the questions, and the distinguishing features of each item. In the future, teachers hope to get training in the use of other technologies to compile and evaluate learning outcomes.
