Instrument for Assessing Physical Literacy Skills Competence in Primary School Tasikmalaya, Indonesia

This study aimed to design, develop, and assess the validity of a Physical Literacy (PL) instrument designed for primary school students in Tasikmalaya, Indonesia. Children aged 8 and 12 were the sample for this development research design. The instrument's validity was evaluated using alpha coefficient analysis, and the results were quite good. All items had alpha coefficients close to or equal to 1.00, indicating the proposed evaluation instrument has good validity. As it allows them to classify students according to their ability levels and conduct more effective physical education evaluations, physical education teachers and classroom teachers require PL assessment. Physical education curriculum planning concentrates more on Physical Literacy; each student needs to be improved to be more straightforward with this tool. Therefore, this evaluation tool is beneficial for teachers in obtaining a track record of individual and collective student progress in Physical Education learning. The results from this study show that the instrument created is reliable and successfully collected PL data in Tasikmalaya City, located in Indonesia. Since we can ensure that coaching efforts can concentrate on the specific needs of each student by using the PL assessment instrument, we will achieve more significant results in primary school students' PL.
