Abstract
The final project is a requirement that students must complete to graduate from vocational higher education. The evaluation process for the final project follows the guidelines set forth. However, the current evaluation instruments have not yet produced objective results. The main issue lies in the differing interpretations among examiners, which leads to inconsistent grading standards. Therefore, this research was conducted as part of a self-assessment initiative to enhance students' metacognitive abilities. This study employs descriptive analysis to construct a more objective evaluation guide. Data were collected through participant observation, interviews, and literature review. The findings indicate that using a structured final project evaluation instrument with pre-determined answer choices provides a more objective assessment. As a result, students also develop the ability to analyze during self-assessment, thereby improving their metacognitive skills.
