Abstract: The goal of this research is to design an assessment rubric that specifically designed for a genre-based
EFL writing assessment. The ability to construct fair and valid methods of assessing students' progress
and achievement in learning process is a necessary skill for teachers. The main objective of this
research is to design an assessment instrument in the form of a genre-based writing rubric. The rubric
designing was carried out in several stages, they are conducting needs analysis, designing the first draft
of rubric, validating the product by experts as validators, trying out and revising the product. This
development model refers to the research and development model developed by Borg and Gall (2007).
The result of the combination of the theory and the rubric model produces a model that is slightly
different from the EFL writing rubrics in general. The rubric design focuses on the structural aspects
of the text in the hortatory exposition text, which are Thesis, Arguments, and Recommendations. An
aspect that is no less important to assess and often overlooked is the title of the text. It as an aspect that
was also assessed as a whole text. In addition, this use of percentages (%) to replace the numbers that
are usually found in EFL writing. The final product of this research is an EFL writing rubric that can
be used widely in a genre-based writing assessment. |
