Abstract

Discipline is the spearhead of the growth of good characters, which can grow along with practical learning or practicum. The appropriate assessment for practicum activities is performance assessment. Teacher assessment techniques are very commonly used to assess student performance in carrying out practicum. However, this valuation technique becomes less valid since there is an unbalanced amount between the assessor and the assessed. Another assessment technique proposed by experts to be the solution, namely the combination of self and peer assessment. This study conducted to know the validity of the developed self and peer assessment instrument for meat processing practicum and to know the instrument results in assessing students discipline on meat processing practicum. Method used in this study is the method of development and validation with planning, development, validity testing, and testing as the stages. This study conducted at a meat processing practicum with 48 students as participants and 5 observers. All of the data used in this study, in the form of self assessment scores, peer assessment, and observer assessment, were analyzed by looking at their similarities. The developed instrument has been declared valid by the experts. The results of the use indicate that there are 17 students with very good discipline, 8 students with good discipline, and 6 students with enough discipline. The validity is not only adapting the literature related to this instrument, but has been declared valid by experts (expert judgement), and can be used based on the results of trial analysis. The more similarities of scores obtained indicate that the developed instrument can not only be used but also good enough for assessing student discipline in meat processing practicum.
