UKPPPG study plan

UKPPPG · Give each week a clear focus.

8 weeks · About 7 hours per week

Week 1

Professional knowledge and pedagogical content knowledge (kompetensi profesional dan pengetahuan pedagogik) & Subject-specific content mastery for the teacher's field (penguasaan materi bidang studi)

  • Map the exam blueprint: list every sub-topic under professional knowledge and subject content, and rate personal confidence 1-5 per sub-topic

  • Diagnose baseline by completing 40 mixed practice items on pedagogical content knowledge and subject content, then classify each error as knowledge gap, misreading, or reasoning error

  • Build a personal glossary of 25 core concepts (e.g., TPACK, scaffolding, zona perkembangan proksimal, konstruktivisme, asesmen formatif) with a one-sentence definition in own words

  • Draft a weekly study calendar that reserves two content blocks and one review block per week

Your checkpoint

A one-page diagnostic report: confidence heatmap of all sub-topics plus an error log of 40 items with error type and a corrective action per gap

Week 2

Professional knowledge and pedagogical content knowledge (kompetensi profesional dan pengetahuan pedagogik) & Subject-specific content mastery for the teacher's field (penguasaan materi bidang studi)

  • Explain in writing how learning theories (behaviorisme, kognitivisme, konstruktivisme, humanisme, konektivisme) translate into concrete classroom decisions

  • Solve 30 subject-content problems drawn from the highest-weight curriculum units and write the full reasoning for each, not just the answer

  • Compare the current national curriculum framework's competency and learning-outcome structure against classic Bloom/Anderson taxonomy levels

  • Identify 10 commonly confused concept pairs in the subject field and write the distinguishing feature for each

Your checkpoint

A 2-page concept comparison sheet covering 5 learning theories and 10 confusable concept pairs, each with a classroom example

Week 3

Professional knowledge and pedagogical content knowledge (kompetensi profesional dan pengetahuan pedagogik) & Pedagogical competence: planning, implementing, and assessing learning (kompetensi pedagogik)

  • Convert subject-content understanding into pedagogical content knowledge by writing, for three difficult topics, the typical student misconception and an instructional counter-move

  • Design a 60-minute lesson plan aligned to learning outcomes, with opening, core activity, and closing timed to the minute

  • Select and justify three assessment instruments (diagnostic, formative, summative) for one learning unit, stating the purpose of each

  • Practise 20 items on curriculum interpretation and assessment literacy under timed conditions

Your checkpoint

One complete lesson plan (60 minutes) with a misconception-and-counter-move table for three topics and a matched assessment plan

Week 4

Pedagogical competence: planning, implementing, and assessing learning (kompetensi pedagogik)

  • Write measurable learning objectives using observable verbs at three taxonomy levels for a single unit

  • Build a formative assessment rubric with 4 performance levels and descriptors that students could apply to their own work

  • Analyse three sample student answers and write feedback that names the strength, the gap, and the next step

  • Simulate a 45-minute planning session and produce a lesson plan from a cold start to test fluency

Your checkpoint

A unit assessment pack: 6 measurable objectives, a 4-level rubric, and written feedback on three sample student responses

Week 5

Pedagogical competence: planning, implementing, and assessing learning (kompetensi pedagogik) & Personality and social competence (kompetensi kepribadian dan sosial)

  • Design a differentiated instruction plan for one classroom scenario with three learner profiles (high, middle, remedial) and justify each adaptation

  • Rehearse classroom management responses to five disruptive scenarios and script the exact first sentence to say in each

  • Self-assess personality and social competence against the teacher competency framework and pick three concrete behaviours to change

  • Practise 15 items on classroom management and student diversity, then rewrite the missed ones as reflection notes

Your checkpoint

A differentiation and classroom-management playbook: three learner profiles, five scenario scripts, and a 3-item personal behaviour change plan with success indicators

Week 6

Personality and social competence (kompetensi kepribadian dan sosial) & Performance assessment: learning tools, teaching practice, and reflective portfolio (ujian kinerja)

  • Draft the reflective portfolio skeleton: teaching philosophy, two lesson artefacts, one assessment artefact, and one reflection per artefact

  • Write two reflections using a structured cycle (description, analysis, evaluation, action plan) of at least 300 words each

  • Record or peer-review a 15-minute micro-teaching segment and collect structured feedback against a 5-criterion observation form

  • Rehearse professional-ethics scenarios (conflict of interest, confidentiality, parent communication) and write your response to each

Your checkpoint

Portfolio draft containing a teaching philosophy statement, two lesson artefacts, one assessment artefact, and two structured reflections

Week 7

Performance assessment: learning tools, teaching practice, and reflective portfolio (ujian kinerja) & Pedagogical competence: planning, implementing, and assessing learning (kompetensi pedagogik)

  • Revise the portfolio after peer feedback and close every comment with a written change note

  • Run a full timed mock performance test: produce a learning-tools set (lesson plan, media, worksheet, assessment) within 90 minutes

  • Self-score the mock against the official performance rubric and identify the two weakest criteria

  • Rehearse the micro-teaching segment a second time, targeting only the two weakest criteria

Your checkpoint

A complete timed mock performance package (lesson plan, media, worksheet, assessment) plus a self-scored rubric with two targeted improvements

Week 8

Professional knowledge and pedagogical content knowledge (kompetensi profesional dan pengetahuan pedagogik) & Pedagogical competence: planning, implementing, and assessing learning (kompetensi pedagogik) & Personality and social competence (kompetensi kepribadian dan sosial) & Subject-specific content mastery for the teacher's field (penguasaan materi bidang studi) & Performance assessment: learning tools, teaching practice, and reflective portfolio (ujian kinerja)

  • Review the error log from weeks 1-7 and re-solve every item previously marked wrong

  • Complete two full-length timed mock exams and compare domain-level scores against the week 1 baseline

  • Consolidate the glossary and concept sheets into a single 10-page final review sheet

  • Finalise the portfolio and rehearse the micro-teaching segment once more under exam timing

Your checkpoint

Final review sheet plus a score-comparison table showing week 1 versus week 8 domain-level accuracy and a submission-ready portfolio

Milestones

Week 2: Diagnostic error log shows every week-1 gap assigned a corrective action, and subject-content accuracy on a 30-item set reaches at least 70%

Week 4: A 60-minute lesson plan can be produced from a cold start within 45 minutes and passes a self-check against a 10-point alignment checklist (objectives, activities, assessment, timing)

Week 6: Portfolio draft contains all required artefacts and two reflections of at least 300 words each, reviewed by at least one peer

Week 8: Two full-length mock exams completed under timing with domain-level accuracy at least 15 percentage points above the week-1 baseline in domains 1 and 2, and the portfolio is submission-ready
