Assessment System
Assessment is made to evaluate student learning processes and outcomes to fulfill graduate learning outcomes. The exam is designed to evaluate student learning processes and outcomes to fulfil programme learning outcomes (PLO). There is a set of standardized assessments in exams to measure it. The example of portfolios and exams are attached in Appendix 3.2. With the implementation of the exam, it can be seen how far students can master the learning material. Based on the rector’s decision Number 1189.a/UN39/PK.00/2020 regarding academic manuals, course exams are conducted at least twice in one semester, namely the Mid-Semester Examination and the Final Semester Examination. The exams cover several types, such as quizzes, paper writing, and project report writing. Student activities are based on student attendance and participation when carrying out learning. For example, students actively participate in opinions during discussions in class. Assignments consist of individual assignments and group assignments. However, it is varied among the lecturers based on the characteristics of the courses and their CLO. The study program coordinator has to arrange the exam schedules. The lecturer has to arrange the exam questions and submit them, and approve them by the coordinator at least one week before the exam.

According to Table 3.1 minimum grade to pass each course is C for the bachelor’s program and B for the master’s program. Students, who do not pass, must repeat in the next semester and re-register in the educational system via the link (http://siakad.unj.ac.id). The course process re-sits the same as other students.
According to the academic guidelines of Universitas Negeri Jakarta, student qualifications are manifested by the lecturer in the form of final grades. The lecturer must conduct research based on educative, authentic, objective, transparent, and accountable values.
Assessment Method
The assessment method is divided into direct and indirect assessments. The direct assessment measures Cognitive (knowledge and understanding), such as Examination, Essay Writing, Course-work Report, Laboratory Report, Oral Examination, Presentation, Project, and Seminar. Meanwhile, the indirect assessment measures Affective and Psychomotor (attitude and ability), such as through Focus groups, Practicum, Case studies, and interviews.
Grade Point (GP/IP) is divided into Semester Grade Point (GPS/IPS) and Grade Point Average (GPS/IPK). The semester grade point is counted based on the total weights of course scores multiplied by total credits of courses in every semester and divided by the total of credits inactive semester.
The semester grade point is counted based on the total courses taken in the semester. Meanwhile, the grade point average is counted based on the total weight of passed score courses multiplied by the total of passed course credits and divided by the total of passed course credits. The grade point average is counted by excluding the failed course score. The course scores in the grade point average are the current scores from a course that has been taken more than one time.
The student’s learning progress in the bachelor program is evaluated to see their academic ability development conducted in three steps. The first step is conducted at the end of the second semester with terms and conditions that if the total credits have not reached 24 credits, and the GPA is less than 2.00, the student will get a first warning announcement letter issued by the Academic, Student, and Public Relation Affairs. The letter is about a warning announcement for the student to get a status revocation as a student of UNJ unless they can fix their academic achievement next semester. The second step of evaluation is executed at the end of the third semester with terms and conditions; if the total credits have not reached 36 credits with a GPA less than 2.00, the student will receive the first warning announcement letter as they have not received any warning announcement letter in the first evaluation step and the second warning announcement letter as they have received the first announcement letter. The third step of learning progress evaluation is completed at the end of the fourth semester with terms and conditions; if the total credits have not reached 48 credits with the grade point average (IPK) less than 2.00, the student will get the first warning announcement letters as they have not received any warning announcement letter in the first and second evaluation step. Their status as a student of UNJ will be revocated if they have received the first and second warning announcement letters. All the warning letters are sent to the student’s parents and forwarded to the Faculty and Study Programme. Finally, a student who has completed at least 144 credits, a minimum GPA of 2.0, does not have any grade E, and has a grade D, not more than 20% of the total credits, may submit a graduate candidacy evaluation for graduation.
Every student who will complete their study at UNJ is required to:
- pass all required courses from the study program,
- fulfill the total minimum credits requirement,
- write a scientific paper or hold a showcase/exhibition,
- have a publication, and
- follow a scientific presentation exam based on a selected education program.
A scientific paper reports a research study written by the students during the last study period in every selected program. Each of them will be published in online media. It can’t have any plagiarized elements.
