ABSTRACT

Literacy, particularly reading literacy, holds significant importance in social life, particularly in the 21st century. This study aims to assess the literacy competence of eighth-grade students in junior high schools. It focuses on determining students’ proficiency in locating textual information, evaluating students’ reading literacy in comprehending texts, and appraising students’ reading literacy in evaluating and reflecting upon texts. The study employed a quantitative approach, utilizing a survey-type test method with a cross-sectional survey design to facilitate one-time data collection. The assessment instruments comprise tailored AKM questions. Results indicated that students’ proficiency in locating information stands at a commendable 66%, while comprehension of information is reasonably satisfactory, with 58% of students providing correct answers. However, competency in evaluating and reflecting upon texts is categorized as lacking, as evidenced by a 49% average of correct responses.
