Abstract
The assessment of students^ scientific writing has predominantly been conducted manually, a practice that often leads to subjectivity, inconsistency, and delayed feedback. This study aims to design and implement a digitalization strategy in the scientific writing assessment process to enhance the quality of Indonesian Language instruction at STMIK Pelita Nusantara. The research adopts a Research and Development (R&D) methodology using the ADDIE model (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation). The developed digital assessment system integrates relevant academic writing indicators, including structural organization, logical reasoning, proper citation, and adherence to academic conventions. The system trial demonstrated improved efficiency in the assessment process, enhanced clarity of feedback provided to students, and a notable increase in the quality of students^ scientific writing, particularly in terms of structure and academic rigor. The findings recommend the adoption of a digital assessment system as a pedagogical innovation in Indonesian Language learning, especially within the context of vocational higher education.
