BRIDGING THEORY AND PRACTICE IN LANGUAGE ASSESSMENT FOR EFL TEACHERS

BRIDGING THEORY AND PRACTICE IN LANGUAGE ASSESSMENT FOR EFL TEACHERS

By Desi Surlitasari Dewi , Dewi Sartika , Natalia Manuhutu , Shella Gherina Saptiany , Safnidar Siahaan , Mega Aulia Ardhi
Language assessment is often perceived by preservice teachers as one of the most intimidating aspects of education, frequently treated as a detached technical requirement rather than a vital spark for learning. This comprehensive guide transforms that perception by offering a clear, practice-oriented pathway through the complexities of evaluating language proficiency in EFL contexts. Grounded in established theories but driven by a hands-on, project-based learning approach, this book empowers educators to move beyond traditional testing. It provides a deep dive into core principles: validity, reliability, and authenticity, and demonstrates their direct application in assessing receptive and productive skills. From constructing effective multiple-choice items and designing nuanced analytical rubrics to conducting expert validation and basic item analysis, readers are guided through every stage of the assessment cycle. Designed specifically for undergraduate students and novice teachers, this text bridges the gap between abstract academic concepts and the daily realities of the classroom. By fostering assessment literacy and ethical responsibility, it prepares the next generation of educators to design evaluations that are not only fair and reliable but also powerful tools for improving instruction and inspiring student growth.

TRANSFORMATIVE LEARNING AND LITERATURE IN WRITING: Theory, Pedagogy, and Practice

TRANSFORMATIVE LEARNING AND LITERATURE IN WRITING: Theory, Pedagogy, and Practice

By Safnidar Siahaan , Isnaini Eddy Saputro , Lilik Yulianingsih , Muhammad Faizin , Juwita Boneka Sinaga , Mega Aulia Ardhi
Writing continues long after a book is completed. In classrooms, in professional spaces, and in personal reflection, writing remains a way of making sense of experience and engaging with change. This book has explored writing as a transformative practice, not as a fixed method, but as an ongoing process shaped by learners, teachers, and contexts. Throughout these chapters, writing has been presented as a space for reflection, dialogue, and reconsideration. Transformation, as discussed here, is often gradual and subtle. It may appear in a learner’s growing confidence, a shift in perspective, or a deeper willingness to question assumptions. Such changes are not always immediately visible, yet they form the foundation of meaningful learning.

DINAMIKA FILSAFAT PENDIDIKAN: Landasan Teoretis untuk Transformasi Pendidikan dan Masyarakat

By Aip Syarifudin
Apakah pendidikan kita hari ini telah kehilangan jiwanya? Di tengah derasnya arus digitalisasi dan obsesi terhadap kompetensi teknis, wajah pendidikan sering kali terjebak menjadi sekadar proses transfer informasi, melupakan esensi utamanya: memanusiakan manusia. Buku "Dinamika Filsafat Pendidikan" hadir sebagai respons intelektual atas kegamangan tersebut. Penulis mengajak pembaca menyelami kembali sumur kebijaksanaan, mulai dari dialektika filsafat Barat klasik, kedalaman spiritualitas filsafat Islam, hingga nilai-nilai luhur Pancasila untuk menjawab tantangan masa depan. Buku ini tidak hanya berhenti pada teori usang. Ia secara berani membenturkan pemikiran filosofis dengan realitas kontemporer: Bagaimana epistemologi bekerja di era Artificial Intelligence? Bagaimana konsep Heutagogy mengubah relasi guru-murid? Dan bagaimana pendidikan dapat menjadi motor penggerak transformasi sosial yang berkeadaban? Karya ini adalah bacaan wajib bagi dosen, mahasiswa kependidikan, guru, serta pengambil kebijakan yang menolak untuk sekadar ikut arus, melainkan ingin menjadi agen perubahan yang sadar akan akar filosofis tindakannya. "Pendidikan tanpa landasan filosofis ibarat kapal tanpa kompas; ia bergerak cepat, namun tak tentu arah."
