Abstract

The purpose of this research is to show the result of formative assessment application to improve students learning outcomes in Thermodynamics Major, Department of Mechanical Engineering Education, Faculty of Engineering, State University of Padang. The type of research is action research. The results are: (1) the first cycle, the learning activities has not been successful because the percentage of students who pass the passing grade is only 56 % of the total number of students. It called success if at least 75 % student in the class reach a passing grade. It is need for restoration and improvement for the feedback of formative assessment application in the second cycle. (2) The second cycle showed that the learning activities have been successful because the percentage of students who have reached the complete mastery learning is 85.3 % of the total number of students. Therefore, the study was discontinued in the next cycle. This means the application of formative assessment with Instructor Directional Feedback can improve student learning outcomes on thermodynamics.
