Abstract

This study elaborates on the issues of the teacher certification program in Indonesia by integrating the Freirean perspectives to consider how power linkages arise within, and affect the assessment standard system, and how people who participate in this system are affected by the normalization of the system. This study interviewed 3 elementary teachers who had passed the teacher certification program. Interviews were made semi-structured and conducted one-on-one for roughly 30 minutes in Bahasa Indonesia and be analyzed through qualitative content analysis. Our findings that the main problems of the teacher certification program were implementation distortion, the absence of a serious evaluation, and the awareness and commitment of the teacher certification program participants to become professional teachers. Hence, we recommend several things in an attempt to improve the teacher certification program; system improvements should be developed by experts in more detail; however, they must possess the characteristics of a clear performance-based system.
