  • Assessment always plays a crucial role in any educational practices. In translation teaching, it is important as well in a sense that translation teaching requires a valid, reliable, and practical assessment instrument. In addition, it is also important to standardize every aspect to make sure a fair assessment for all. At D3 English Department Program at Politeknik Negeri Malang, the translator education is also organized to train the student translators. A uniform and agreed scoring rubric is required to make sure the assessment is fair and transparent. Therefore, this research investigated the current assessment practice and the expected scoring rubric to use in the future. It is expected that the problems can be identified and the solutions can be proposed. In this research, descriptive qualitative research was selected to be the research design, with two research instruments, i.e. semi-structured interview guide and document analysis. This research was conducted at Politeknik Negeri Malang. Four research participants were involved in this study. The findings showed that the teaching and assessment practice in this vocational higher education institution has followed the ideal assessment process. However, the scoring rubric type and the frequency of use were still different from one lecturer to the other. In addition, the lecturers expected that the scoring rubric can be used for research. For the current scoring rubric, there were several shortcomings. Therefore, a new scoring rubric was required. The designing was expected to be using a top-down approach. An analytical scoring rubric was expected to be a new scoring rubric developed for them. They expected that the scoring rubric is more practical but still detailed and thorough.
