The Ministry of Education has recently introduced a new policy regarding the management of e-performance for teachers, principals, and supervisors. This policy aims to simplify the process of managing e-performance, allowing teachers to focus more on their main task of teaching. One significant change is the reduction in the frequency of e-performance evaluations, which now only need to be completed once a year.
Teachers will no longer have to upload various supporting documents as before. Another convenience offered in this new policy is the removal of the point-based evaluation system. The complex and often confusing assessment system will be replaced with a simpler and easier-to-understand system.
With this new policy, it is hoped that teachers will be more productive and motivated in carrying out their duties. Additionally, the policy is expected to enhance the quality of education as teachers can focus more on developing competencies and innovations in teaching. Of course, intensive socialization among teachers is essential to ensure smooth and effective implementation.
However, the question of whether the quality of assessment will remain high is crucial. If the assessment system is not detailed enough, it may lead to difficulties in identifying the individual development needs of teachers. As a result, professional development for teachers may become less effective.
In conclusion, this new policy on e-performance management is a positive step towards improving the well-being and professionalism of teachers. With this policy in place, teachers are expected to work more comfortably and focused, ultimately benefiting the quality of education in Indonesia.
