SIMULASI 01 TKA BAHASA INDONESIA N0. 1 - 5

Main ideas and lessons

• The video presents a sample of the Indonesian Language Academic Ability Test (TKA/TKA Bahasa Indonesia), intended to replace the national exam, scheduled for November (with “God willing” stated in the video).
• It explains the test structure and indicators for creating questions in line with Indonesian regulations, referencing:
  • Head of Agency Regulation No. 45 of 2025 (Assessment Framework for SMA/MA/SMK/MAK).
  • Perkaban No. 45 of 2025, specifically used for the TKA grid.
• The sample demonstrates:
  • Question types (mainly multiple-choice, with an additional justification/discussion process).
  • How correct answers are determined through:
    • Identifying loanwords from foreign languages and regional languages.
    • Understanding the meaning of words in context.
    • Identifying literary elements in a short story/poem excerpt, including:
      • Setting (place, time, atmosphere)
      • Character traits of story characters

Methodology: question-building approach (detailed)

The speaker outlines 5 indicators used to create questions:

1. Identify the use of loanwords from foreign languages.
2. Identify the use of loanwords from regional languages.
3. Determine the meaning of foreign-language loanwords as used in a text.
4. Determine the setting/background of a story within a short story excerpt.
5. Determine the character traits of characters in a short story excerpt.

Sample questions and how correct answers are determined

Questions 1–3: Loanwords in a text (multiple-choice model)

The video uses an information text about the digital era (e.g., smart devices, downloading/uploading to cloud servers) and asks students to select correct/incorrect options (shown with check marks).

Question 1: Loanwords from foreign languages

• Task: Identify whether the listed words are loanwords from foreign languages, and determine their source language.
• Examples discussed:
  • digital → from English → Correct
  • interaction → stated as from Latin, not English → Incorrect
  • application → from English → Correct
  • big data / massive data → stated as from Swedish heritage, not English → Incorrect
• The video’s “discussion” section explains why each choice is considered right or wrong.

Question 2: Loanwords from regional languages

• Task: Identify whether the listed words are loanwords from regional languages, and determine their origin.
• Examples discussed:
  • era → stated as from Sanskrit, not Javanese → Incorrect
  • upload / downloading → stated as from Javanese → Correct
  • link → stated as from Sanskrit → Incorrect
  • browser → “Java” is discussed; treated as Correct in the explanation
  • gawe → stated to come from Indonesian/Malay, not Javanese → Incorrect

Question 3: Meaning of foreign-language loanwords

• Task: Choose the appropriate meaning of a word as used in context.
• Key examples:
  • platform
    • Given meaning: a plan/policy that forms the basis for action
    • Marked as correct in the explanation.
  • algorithm
    • Treated as having the correct intended meaning (as described in the discussion).
  • server
    • Correct explanation: a server is software used to access and display internet addresses/web pages
    • Any suggested “hardware” meaning is marked wrong.

Questions 4–5: Literary analysis from a poem/excerpt

The video provides a short story/poem excerpt featuring a farmer figure and a rice field scene, then asks about setting and character.

Question 4: Setting (place, time, atmosphere)

• Task: Identify setting elements:
  • Place: a rice field embankment
  • Time: afternoon (sunny afternoon atmosphere)
  • Atmosphere: calm rural atmosphere, supported by nature details (e.g., leaves, coconuts, birds)
• The explanation confirms these setting elements are present in the excerpt.

Question 5: Character and character description

• Task: Choose the appropriate/inappropriate option based on the character description.
• Main points:
  • Pak Tani is described as:
    • an old man
    • hardworking
    • loves the land
    • worried about the future
  • Physical cues (e.g., rough hands, wrinkled face) and inner worries support the traits.
  • Options aligned with that description are marked appropriate.
  • Children: described as having been away for a long time.
    • Any option that assigns unsupported traits to the children is marked not appropriate.

Closing

• The speaker thanks viewers, hopes students’ TKA results are good, and asks viewers to like and subscribe.
