Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of affective assessment in evaluating the development of elementary students’ attitudes and character. The method used is a literature review with a qualitative descriptive approach. Instruments examined include observation, self-assessment, and peer assessment. Thematic analysis was applied to scientific literature from the past decade. Results show that affective assessment plays a crucial role in character formation, yet its implementation still faces challenges in instrument validity and teacher understanding. This research proposes a digital-based affective evaluation model that is more objective and participatory.
