Metodologi Umum Penyelidikan Reka Bentuk Bertokok Penilaian Dalaman dan Luaran: Kajian Kes Sistem Pendaftaran Siswa Indonesia

This study is motivated by the fact that the software application and content industry advancement in Indonesia especially in the educational domain is rather limited. This has resulted in the deployment of low quality Information System (IS) for education management due to a poorly adopted system development approach. The statement is supported by many references including an example of a student registration IS (i.e. e-PSB) which did not focus on user evaluation; therefore has recorded many errors plus failed to provide a quality service; and was found to not practice a proper system development life cycle. Moreover, literature reviews indicate that studies on the evaluation of IS have yet to determine the correlation between user satisfaction, perception and service quality factors. In regard to the above, the aim of this study is to propose a IS development approach model that pivots on user satisfaction, perception and service quality as the internal and external evaluation factors. In accomplishing the aim, three objectives are formulated; (1) develop a student registration IS prototype as a case study in Indonesia, (2) implement the internal and external evaluation of the prototype in a real setting, and (3) identify influential relationship between the user satisfaction, perception and service quality factors. Quantitative and design research are the two main approaches followed through in this study. There are mainly three phases, (1) planning and analysis, (2) model and artefact development, and (3) implementation, data collection and evaluation. Data are collected using internal and external evaluation instruments. The internal evaluation is based on the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and Questionnaire for User Interaction Satisfaction (QUIS). The external is rooted on the Service Quality (SERVQUAL). Altogether 471 respondents participated where 462 are from Banjarmasin, South Kalimantan, lndonesia and 9 are experts. T-test, ANOVA, correlation and regression analysis are utilized to prove 11 hypotheses. The internal evaluation factors are divided into perceived usefulness (PK), perceived ease-of-use (PKG) and user interface satisfaction (KAP). Whereas, the external factors are divided into quality service (KS), overall perception of quality service (PKS), and overall satisfaction of quality service (KKS). The hypotheses testing show that (i) PKG and PK are significantly correlated, (ii) PK and KAP are significantly correlated, (iii) PKG and KAP are significantly correlated, (iv) PK and PKG together influence KAP significantly, (v) KS influences PKS significantly, (vi) PKS and KKS are significantly correlated, (vii) KS influences KKS significantly, (viii) KS and PKS together influence KKS significantly, and (ix) KAP influences KKS significantly. The proposed IS development approach model, which can be utilized by fellow developers and researchers to develop an IS that focuses on the internal and external evaluation factors, is the main contribution of this study. Furthermore, the prototype, that is named as PSB Terpadu and the identified relationships between the internal and external factors contribute to the software application industry, specifically in Indonesia

SISTEM PENDUKUNG KEPUTUSAN PENENTUAN JENIS IKAN BERDASARKAN KUALITAS AIR UNTUK PENINGKATAN PRODUKSI AKUAKULTUR SECARA INTENSIF MENGGUNAKAN METODE SIMPLE ADDITIVE WEIGHTING (SAW)

Indonesia is an archipelagic country with an area of 5.8 million km2 or equivalentto 2/3 in Indonesia, The territorial waters of Indonesia have been recognized as the Nation's Insight by the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) in1982, but with the vast waters of Indonesia, do not make Indonesia free from imported fish from various countries. In appropriate aquaculture production can result in financial losses, energy, time, and others. So knowledge of intensive aquaculture production is needed. Knowledge of aquaculture production that can be obtained by fish farmers and related parties requires a short time in obtaining it. Therefore the purpose of this research is to design a decision support system that has been computerized which can determine the type of fish that can be produced intensively based on water quality in the area used

Dilemma Between Applying Coherent Principle and Signaling Principles In Interactive Learning Media

Background: Studies on developing multimedia content for eLearning have widely been conducted. In previous studies, multimedia learning contents were developed without applying any principles, making them less efficient in supporting user’s mental effort. To this end, this study extends the current state by applying the coherence principle and signaling principle to make the multimedia learning content usable and interesting to use. Furthermore, the paper aims at describing the dilemma when applying both principles together. Materials and Methods: In this study, a four-phase methodology has been used. First, a prototype has been developed by applying the coherence principle and signaling principle. Following the development, five experts were consulted for identifying flaws in the developed prototype through a walkthrough session. Results: Finally, this paper showcases the flaws gathered by the experts for further improvement

Mobile Phone and Family Happiness, Mediating Role of Marital Communication: An Attachment Theory Perspective

Mobile phone communication has established itself as an essential element of people's personal and working lives medium of connection in daily interactions and relationships. It has thus become significant for the most intimate form of interpersonal relations, including marital relationships. This small-scale research seeks to find the importance of mobile phone communication in marriage and its influence on family happiness. The study unearths the patterns of mobile phone communication among married partners, by outlining the most common reasons for communicating with the spouse on a mobile phone. In this research, a survey was conducted using a questionnaire to collect data from 30 respondents who were married partners, staff, or students in one of the state-owned universities in South Kalimantan. Each of the respondents possessed a mobile phone. The Mann-Whitney test indicates that the males profoundly believed that mobile phone communication was more important to their marriage than females to strengthen their relationship. Also, the males reported a higher frequency of sending messages and calling their spouses. By and large, the study results describe the most common reasons for communicating with the spouse. The outstanding reason is maintaining a strong intimate relationship by keeping in touch, sharing updates, emotions, feelings, knowing about children, and ensuring the safety of each other through checking on one another using a mobile phone. The findings have significance in showing the need for continued communication in a marital relationship, especially by using the fastest and most comfortable means of mobile phone. Given the synchronous nature of mobile phone communication, the results indicate that married spouses cannot do without it, especially in this Information Society, where we need updates from our spouses, children, friends, and the situation at large

Signaling principles in interactive learning media through expert's walkthrough

This study analyzes the impact of signaling principles upon the effective use of interactive learning media. Normally, designers just design and develop learning media for use in schools without considering the way it eases users’ tasks. Bearing in mind that signaling users while they are learning through interactive learning media is important, this study incorporates signaling principles while designing it. Thus, this paper aims to discuss the appropriate signaling principles for learning media from experts’ perspective. The Iterative Triangulation Methodology was applied to achieve the aim. Altogether, activities were carried out in three phases: requirement analysis, design and development of the prototype, and expert evaluation using a walkthrough. Results revealed that although the prototype was designed by involving users, experts still discovered a number of flaws in the exercises as a result of not properly applying the signaling principles
