ix ABSTRACT
Astuti A, Feny. 2013.The Analysis of Teacher- Made English Mid- Term Test for Twelfth Grade Students of the Odd Semester 2012/2013 of SMK N 1 Kudus. Skripsi. English Education Department, Teacher Training and Education Faculty, Muria Kudus University. Advisor: (1) Diah Kurniati, S. Pd, M. Pd., (2) Nuraeningsih, S. Pd, M. Pd.
Key words: validity, face validity, content validity, index of difficulty, discrimination power.
Teaching learning process and evaluation are two important things in education. Beside teaching, testing has an important role especially for teacher in teaching learning process. At the end of teaching learning process, teacher usually makes an evaluation about what she has taught. Test as the instrument evaluation is used to provide information concerning not only with the individual students performance, but also with the effectiveness of teaching learning activities. Teacher as a constructor of the test should construct a good test to get the accurate data concerning the students‟ achievement. Test that is made by the teacher called teacher made test. It is still to be questioned whether the test is valid or not because teacher rarely try outing and revising the test first before giving it to the students. Knowing this fact, teacher should analyze the test so that the teacher will know the quality of the test. By analyzing the test, the teacher will know which item can be used or revised.
This research aims to know how is the face validity of the teacher- made English mid- term test, how is the content validity of the teacher- made English mid- term test, how is the index of difficulty of teacher- made English mid- term test, and how is the discrimination power of teacher- made English mid- term test of SMK N 1 Kudus used by an English teacher of SMK N 1 Kudus. It is expected to be useful for teachers in constructing a good English test.
This research is descriptive qualitative research. The source of the data in this research is the English mid- term test items for twelfth grade in 2012/ 2013
and the students‟ score of Office Administration 1‟ class, as a sample.
4 items cannot be used again and must be omitted because those numbers have negative discrimination value.
From the fact above, the writer suggests the English teachers should try out their own test to know whether the test is good and valid or not before it is given to the students. So, the result of the test can be used to measure the progress
of students and it can be a tool to measure the students‟ achievement. The teachers
should revise the easy items test and difficult items test, so the teacher can

Astuti A, Feny. 2013. Analisis Soal Mid Bahasa Inggris Buatan Guru Kelas XII Semester Ganjil 2012/2013 di SMK N 1 Kudus. Skripsi. Pendidikan Bahasa Inggris, Fakultas Keguruan dan Ilmu Pendidikan,Universitas Muria Kudus. Pembimbing: (1) Diah Kurniati, S. Pd, M. Pd., (2) Nuraeningsih, S. Pd, M. Pd.
Kata kunci: validitas, validitas rupa, validitas isi, indeks kesukaran, daya pembeda.
Proses belajar mengajar dan evaluasi merupakan dua hal penting dalam pendidikan. Disamping mengajar, menguji juga memiliki peran penting bagi guru dalam proses belajar mengajar. Di akhir proses belajar mengajar, guru biasanya membuat evaluasi tentang apa yang telah ia ajarkan. Tes merupakan suatu instrument evaluasi yang digunakan untuk mendapatkan informasi yang tidak hanya terkait dengan prestasi siswa, tetapi juga dengan keefektifan aktivitas belajar mengajar. Guru sebagai pembuat soal sebaiknya mampu membuat soal yang baik untuk bisa mendapatkan data yang akurat tentang prestasi siswa. Test yang dibuat oleh guru disebut tes buatan guru. Tes tersebut masih dipertanyakan apakah sudah valid atau belum karena guru jarang menguji cobakan dan membetulkan tes tersebut terlebih dahulu sebelum diberikan kepada siswa-siswa. Mengetahui hal init, guru sebaiknya menganalisis tes tersebut sehingga guru dapat mengetahui kualitas soal yang dibuat. Dengan menganalisis tes, guru dapat mengetahui soal yang mana yang dapat digunakan kembali maupun yang harus diperbaiki.
Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui bagaimana validitas rupa dari tes mid bahasa Inggris buatan guru, bagaimana validitas isi dari tes mid bahasa Inggris buatan guru, bagaimana indeks kesukaran dari tes mid bahasa Inggris buatan guru, dan bagaimana daya pembeda dari soal mid bahasa Inggris yang digunakan oleh guru bahasa Inggris di SMK N 1 Kudus. Hal ini diharapkan dapat berguna bagi para guru dalam membuat soal tes bahasa Inggris yang baik.
Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian deskriptif kualitatif. Dengan sumber data yaitu dari soal-soal mid bahasa Inggris kelas XII semester ganjil tahun ajaran 2012/ 2013 dan nilai mid tes bahasa Inggris kelas Administrasi Perkantoran 1 yang digunakan sebagai sampel.
banyak soal yang masuk dalam kategori soal mudah. Untuk daya pembeda, terdapat 66% dari soal tergolong soal yang jelek, 18% atau 9 soal merupakan soal dengan kategori cukup, dan 8% atau 4 soal tergolong baik. Soal dengan jumlah terbanyak yaitu soal dengan kategori jelek sebaiknya diperbaiki sebelum digunakan kembali, sementara itu masih terdapat 8% atau 4 soal tidak dapat digunakan kembali atau harus dihapus/ dibuang karena memiliki nilai daya pembeda negatif.
