Standar Mutu Pendidikan, Temuan dan Solusi Mutu di Era New Normal

The impact of the Covid-19 pandemic has caused a decrease in the quality of education whichhas an impact on educational output and outcomes. Strategies and policies at the micro, meso,and macro levels are needed to improve the quality and performance of the educationecosystem in schools. Therefore National policies are important so that they become a commonconcern in responding to the declining quality of education in the new normal life withstrategic regulations and policies that can form quality outputs that are met bystakeholders.Education is an asset of a nation, therefore special attention is needed in efforts toimprove the quality of education. The government as the party that plays the most role in theworld of education should always strive to continuously improve the quality of education inIndonesia with breakthroughs or new programs.Quality assurance can be applied in education(schools), where the school seems to be a separate system of context, input, process, output,outcome (short term impact and long term impact), where the focus of quality assurance lies onthe input. The targets of quality assurance activities in the education sector are the stages:input, process, outcome, and impact. Targets in education include: student selection and qualitycurriculum, facilities and infrastructure, teachers, and supporting staff, learning and assessmentprocesses, competency of graduates, alumni and stakeholders, and academic managemen

Effect of Arbuscular Mycorrhiza Fungi Inoculation on Growth and Uptake of Mineral Nutrition in Ipomoea aquatica

AbStrACt A green house experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of arbuscular mycorrhiza inoculation on plant growth and uptake of mineral nutrition in Ipomoea aquatica considering the objective of using environmental friendly biofertilizer instead of chemical fertilizer. A common leafy vegetable plant Ipomoea aquatica was grown with mycorrhiza and without mycorrhiza for 42 days. After harvesting the plants were analyzed for mineral nutrition concentration. Plant fresh weight, dry weight, macronutrient (P, K, Mg, Na), micronutrient (Fe, Mn, Zn) concentration was higher in arbuscular mycorrhiza inoculated plant than non-mycorrhiza inoculated plant. For sustainable agriculture, introducing biofertilizer by using arbuscular mycorrhiza inoculation would be one of the most efficient techniques for replacing chemical fertilizer to meet the nutrient deficiency in nutrient deficient soils of Bangladesh

Assessment of Flood Hazard Mapping Based on Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) and GIS: Application in Kencong District, Jember Regency, Indonesia

Flood is one of the most frequent hydrometeorological disasters which leads in economic losses. The first step in flood disaster mitigation efforts is mapping vulnerable areas. Kencong District frequently affected by the annual flooding event. This study aims to assess flood hazard mapping by integrating the AHP method and Geographic Information System. This study used a descriptive quantitative approach through the correlation matrix of the AHP model for each physical environmental factor. These factors include slope, altitude, distance from the river, soil type, Topographic Wetness Index (TWI), and Curvature. Furthermore, with the Geographic Information System (GIS), the weighted overlay stage was carried out to obtain the results of flood-prone areas. Based on the AHP analysis, the most significant factors in determining flood-prone areas were the distance from rivers, slopes, and TWI. The results of flood-prone areas mapping were divided into five classes: from deficient 0.02%, low 4.26%, medium 37.11%, high 51.89%, and very high 6.72%. Validation of GIS mapping results with data in the field has an AUC value of 84%, which indicates that the prediction of the AHP-GIS model is perfect in flood-prone areas mapping in the Kencong District. The integration of AHP method and Geographic Information System in flood hazard assessment were able to produce a model to evaluate the spatial distribution of flood-prone areas.
