Abstract
This research aims to analyze the need to develop an assessment instrument that can accurately measure student learning outcomes in bilingual learning courses, analyze the need for the use of technology in implementing Learning Assessment, and analyze the material and learning objectives contained in the curriculum tool. This research is a type of qualitative research. Based on the interviews with 2 lecturers in the Bilingual Learning course in the PGSD department at Medan State University, the researchers concluded that the learning assessment that has been used so far has not been designed by the theory of measuring learning outcomes. Learning Assessments are made only based on the indicators of success in learning outcomes stated in the Semester Lecture Plan (RPS). To analyze student needs, researchers used a questionnaire instrument with a total of 18 statement items. There are 3 components that researchers measure, namely- Material Components, Technology Utilization Components, and Learning Outcome Measurement Model Components. Based on the questionnaire analysis on the Material component, 26 students (86.7%) stated that there was a need to change the material contained in the Bilingual Learning course and that there was a need for adjustments between the material that had been studied and the material contained in the Learning Assessment instrument. In the Technology Utilization component, 28 students (93.3%) stated that they needed to utilize technology in the learning process and in implementing the Learning Assessment. In the Learning Outcomes Measurement Model component, 27 students (90%) stated that they needed a Learning Assessment instrument that not only measured the ability to remember and understand but also measured the ability to evaluate and create. The results of the analysis of the material and learning objectives, the researcher concluded that 14 materials would be developed in the development of Web-based assessment based on Bloom^s Taxonomy in the Bilingual Learning course.
