ABSTRACT

This study aimed at revealing whether or not the assessment used by an English

teacher in SMP Islam PB Soedirman Grade 7 promoted meaningful learning.

Using Anderson et.al?s (2001) meaningful learning concept and the concept of

meaningful learning used in Kurikulum 2013, all assessments which were used by

the teacher within two lesson materials were analyzed. This study also analyzed

the quality of the assessment by using the theory of language assessment

principles discussed in Brown (2004). The data were gathered through class

observation, document analysis, interview, and questionnaire. This study reveals

that the assessment used by the teacher had not thoroughly promoted students to

meaningful learning because not all stages in retention phase were reached by the

students. However, the various assessment forms used by the teacher had

promoted students to the steps of 5 basic learning experiences in Kurikulum 2013.

Since the students were not able to reach all stages in the retention phase, it can be

said that learning output was not optimal. The assessment used by the teacher also

did not thoroughly corespond to the language assessment principles.;This study aimed at revealing whether or not the assessment used by an English
