Abstract

In the ever-evolving digital era, online lectures offer greater flexibility and accessibility compared to conventional methods. However, significant challenges arise in ensuring the active participation of students during online lectures. Aims: This research aims to develop an assessment instrument for the online lecture process that is valid, effective, and practical. Place and Duration of Study: Ahmad Dahlan Islamic University, Sinjai Regency, South Sulawesi, during the 2023-2024 academic year. Methodology: This study uses a Research and Development (R&D) methodology with an ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation) approach. This instrument was tested for validity and reliability using the Gregory method. Results: The implementation stage is carried out by applying assessment instruments that have been developed in several online classes at Ahmad Dahlan Islamic University. Data collection was carried out through observations, questionnaires, and interviews to assess the effectiveness of the assessment model. The results of the study show that this assessment instrument is able to increase the active participation and quality of student interaction in online lectures. The assessment instrument used has high validity and reliability with a content validity coefficient of 0.95. Conclusion: The application of this assessment instrument also positively impacts the quality of learning, as students show an increase in the use of technology and digital literacy. Lecturers feel supported by the systematic and user-friendly assessment format. Overall, this study concludes that the developed assessment model is effective in evaluating student activities during online lectures and can be adopted more widely to enhance the quality of online learning across various universities.
