This research is an evaluation of the CIPP model with a qualitative approach phenomenology. Data were collected through observations, in-depth interviews, and documentation.

The results show that the implementation of integrative thematic learning in Muhammadiyah Suronatan Elementary School Yogyakarta has been carried out quite well, both in planning, implementation, and assessment of processes and learning outcomes. The implementation is success because it has been supported by excellent teachers' competence and adequate facilities and infrastructure supporting the learning process. Besides, teachers also have the motivation and spirit of learning. The implementation of integrative thematic learning of curriculum 2013 has a positive impact on student learning outcomes from both aspects of knowledge, attitude, and skills. From the knowledge aspect, the integrative thematic learning of the curriculum 2013 can deliver the best value to the national exam in the top 10 of Yogyakarta. The attitude aspect of the student spirit in learning shows an increase in students' confidence. As for the skill aspect, students become creative and innovative in both thinking and working.

With the sample size of 360, 371 MTs students in East Java, the achievement was measured by using 40 multiple choice questions with each having four answer options. Split-plot and latent profile analysis of the data show that there was a consistent decrease in the achievement of mathematics and sciences of the moderate group of MTs from 2015 to 2018 with a dramatic drop in mathematics and tendency to drop for science. The fundamental implication of these findings is that there is a need for learning innovations to improve mathematics and science learning outcomes for 21st century learning. The findings can also provide data support for decision making for the revision of the mathematics and science curriculum and can be further used as empirical evidence for the developed countries in finding ways to improve the quality of mathematics and science learning outcomes for 21st century learning, in particular, to assist the developing countries such as Indonesia.","PeriodicalId":33364,"journal":{"name":"Jurnal Penelitian dan Evaluasi Pendidikan","volume":"35 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90807700","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study employed a qualitative and quantitative method. The subject was elementary school teachers in Bekasi city who had taught in classes applying Curriculum 2013. The data were collected using questionnaires and focus group discussions. The result shows that the implementation of attitude assessment had not been done optimally because of teachers’ lack of understanding. Besides, too many techniques of attitude assessment cause teachers to need a lot of time to learn and conduct the assessment. In Curriculum 2013, students’ involvement is emphasized, yet most students were quite passive in class, and there was no dynamic and active discussion in the learning process. It means teachers need to apply different methods to encourage students to be more active. Lastly, the utilization and follow-up of the assessment results were not optimal. Some recommendations that can be proposed are: (1) schools are hoped to be able to provide independent training for the implementation of assessment in Curriculum 2013; (2) mandatory attitude assessment required to be done by each subject teacher is observation, while other required assessments are done by the classroom teacher; (3) variables in attitude assessment needs to be completed and clearly stated especially in social aspects (KI-2), which are accepting and responding; (4) there should be a detailed description of attitude assessment in students’ reports.","PeriodicalId":33364,"journal":{"name":"Jurnal Penelitian dan Evaluasi Pendidikan","volume":"2015 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87177466","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
