Perencanaan Perbaikan Mutu Berkelanjutan Madrasah Terakreditasi A

Berdasarkan kajian Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) tahun 2018 Indonesia merosot pada peringkat 74 untuk kategori membaca, 73 untuk kategori matematika, 71 untuk kategori sains dari 79 negara peserta, hal ini menunjukkan mutu pendidikan di Indonesia masih rendah, dengan demikian penting bagi Indonesia melakukan perbaikan mutu pendidikan secara berkelanjutan dengan berbagai upaya. Artikel ini mendeskripsikan perencanaan perbaikan mutu berkelanjutan (Continuous Quality Improvement) pada Madrasah Terakreditasi A. Kajian  ini menggunakan metode  “Literature Review” yang berisikan ulasan (Compare, Contrast and Synthesize), rangkuman (Summarize),  dan  pemikiran  penulis (Criticize) dari beberapa  sumber  pustaka terkait Perencanaan Perbaikan Mutu Berkelanjutan Madrasah Terakreditasi A. Madrasah Terakreditasi A dapat melakukan perencanaan perbaikan mutu berkelanjutan dengan merencanakan program inovatif  dan unggulan yang khas dan unik untuk meningkatkan mutu proses dan mutu lulusan pendidikan, yaitu: dengan melakukan pengelompokan kelas bahasa, kelas olimpiade, kelas riset, kelas akselerasi, peningkatan mutu sarana prasarana, lingkungan yang kondusip dan pengembangan kurikulum ektrakurikuler keagamaan, pidato 3 bahasa, seni dan budaya serta kegiatan olahraga yang kesemuanya ini mengarah pada perbaikan mutu lulusan sebagai output dari proses Pendidikan yang dilakukan di Madrasah Terakreditasi

Temporal landmark graphs for solving overconstrained planning problems

This paper presents TempLM, a novel approach for handling temporal planning problems with deadlines. The proposal revolves around the concept of temporal landmark, a proposition that must be necessarily true in all solution plans to achieve the problem goals within their deadlines. The temporal landmarks extracted from the problem form a landmarks graph where nodes are landmarks and edges represent temporal as well as causal relationships between landmarks. The graph comprises information about which propositions and when these propositions must be achieved in a solution plan, information that is later used to guide the search process as well as reduce the search space. Thus, the partial plans of the search tree that are not compliant with the information comprised in this graph are pruned. We present an exhaustive experimentation evaluation in overconstrained and unsolvable problems and we compare the performance of TempLM with other state-of-the-art planners. The results will show the efficiency of TempLM in the detection of unsolvable problems. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V.

Analysis of information use in agricultural science PhD theses at Central University of Venezuela

Purpose – To analyze information use in agricultural science PhD theses submitted between 1986 and 2002 in the Faculty of Agronomy, Central University of Venezuela (UCV). Design/methodology/approach – The source of information was the UCV Faculty of Agronomy, Library's database, “Tesis”. The unidimensional production and use indicators analyzed included: scientific production, reference density, self-citations, document contemporaneousness and type of documents cited, reference scattering and accessibility of the journals cited. Findings – The analysis of the data obtained from 4,646 bibliographic references in 42 agricultural science PhD theses provides insight into information use in a Venezuelan agricultural science community. The mean number of references per thesis found was 113?±?21. The number of women earning a PhD in agriculture was observed to grow. The percentage of self-citations varied widely. The half-life was 11 years and the Price's Index 22 per cent. According to the distribution by document type, most of the publications cited were articles in journals, while references to technical standards and internet publications were rare. UCV Faculty of Agronomy PhD students tended to seek information primarily in the Anglo Saxon literature. The Celestino Bonfanti Library periodicals section met a high proportion (92 per cent) of the demand for journals located in the first and second concentration-scattering zones. Originality/value – This is the only paper on the evaluation of PhD theses in Venezuela. The findings will be useful for education planners in Venezuela and other developing countries.Publicad
