GROUPING STUDENT ACHIEVEMENT DATA IN A DECISION MAKING SYSTEM USING THE WEIGHT PRODUCT METHOD

Fajri, T. Irfan
Abstract: Abstract: Information, modeling, and data manipulation systems are called decision support systems (DSS). When there is uncertainty about the best course of action in semi-structured or unstructured situations, the system… m is utilized to support decision-making. There are various approaches available for producing decision support systems, one of which is the Weighted Product (WP) Method. With the Weighted Product (WP) approach, attribute ratings are connected by multiplication; however, each attribute's rating must first be increased to the power of the attribute's weight. The normalizing process is same to this one. SPK procedure to choose the winners of the scholarships. Scholarship information from MTS Swasta Alwasliyah Simpang Merbau can be saved in the Decision Support System using this method.

Hutasoit, Josua, Rohmatulloh, Vanda, Putantri, Nazlah Sari, Efrizoni, Lusiana
Abstract:   Abstract: Student attendance is one of the activities carried out in the lecture process. Attendance is also an element of a student's final grade for each course offered in accordance with a university's academic guidelines.… idelines. Attendance at STMIK Amik Riau is done manually, where students are called one by one and then the lecturer changes the attendance data in SIMDOS. This method is of course very inefficient, and takes a long time. Apart from that, this manual process is prone to fraud where students can make absences. Therefore, this research proposes a QR-Code based student attendance mobile application prototype at STMIK Amik Riau using the User Centered Design (UCD) method. The results of the research are in the form of a prototype or user interface design for the student attendance mobile application. It is hoped that this prototype can help programmers to build QR-Code based student attendance mobile applications. Keywords: Presence, QR-Code, User Interface, User Centered Design   = Abstrak: Kehadiran atau presensi mahasiswa merupakan salah satu kegiatan yang dilakukan dalam proses perkuliahan. Presensi juga merupakan salah satu elemen nilai akhir mahasiswa setiap mata kuliah yang ditawarkan sesuai dengan panduan akademik suatu perguruan tinggi. Presensi di STMIK Amik Riau dilakukan secara manual, dimana mahasiswa dipanggil satu per satu lalu dosen merubah data presensi yang ada pada SIMDOS. Cara ini tentunya sangat tidak efisien, dan membutuhkan waktu yang lama. Selain itu proses manual ini rentan terjadi kecurangan dimana mahasiswa dapat melakukan titip absen. Oleh karena itu penelitian ini mengusulkan prototype aplikasi mobile presensi mahasiswa berbasis QR-Code di STMIK Amik Riau menggunakan metode User Centered Design (UCD). Hasil dari penelitian berupa prototype atau rancangan user interface aplikasi mobile presensi mahasiswa. Diharapkan prototype ini dapat membantu programmer untuk membangun aplikasi mobile presensi mahasiswa berbasis QR-Code.   Kata kunci: Presensi, QR-Code, User Interface, User Centered Design

Abstract: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis konten latihan dan soal yang merepresentasikan kemampuan berpikir tingkat tinggi (HOTS) pada buku teks Matematika kelas VII SMP terbitan Kementerian Pendidikan, Kebudayaan, Riset,… et, dan Teknologi sebagai bahan ajar Kurikulum Merdeka. Anifarka & Rosnawati (2023) menyatakan bahwa buku teks yang berkualitas seyogianya mampu memfasilitasi perkembangan kognitif peserta didik selaras dengan capaian pembelajaran yang ditetapkan. Metode yang diterapkan dalam kajian ini adalah analisis isi dengan pendekatan deskriptif kualitatif. Instrumen analisis merujuk pada dimensi kognitif C4 (Menganalisis), C5 (Mengevaluasi), dan C6 (Menciptakan) berdasarkan revisi taksonomi Bloom oleh Anderson & Krathwohl (2001). Temuan penelitian mengindikasikan bahwa dari total 485 butir soal dan aktivitas yang tersebar pada enam bab, sebanyak 147 butir (30,31%) tergolong dalam kategori HOTS. Distribusi HOTS tertinggi ditemukan pada Bab 5 tentang Persamaan dan Pertidaksamaan Linear Satu Variabel (38,46%), sedangkan terendah pada Bab 1 tentang Bilangan (22,80%). Level kognitif yang paling dominan adalah C4-Menganalisis (58,50%), diikuti C5-Mengevaluasi (28,57%), dan C6-Mencipta (12,93%). Temuan ini mengindikasikan bahwa buku teks Kurikulum Merdeka telah mengintegrasikan HOTS secara lebih sistematis dibandingkan kurikulum sebelumnya (Fanani, 2018)meskipun proporsinya perlu ditingkatkan untuk memenuhi tuntutan pembelajaran abad ke-21. This study aims to analyze the content of exercises and questions representing higher-order thinking skills (HOTS) in the Mathematics textbook for grade VII junior high school published by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Research, and Technology as teaching materials for the Independent Curriculum. Anifarka & Rosnawati (2023) stated that a quality textbook should be able to facilitate students' cognitive development in line with the established learning outcomes. The method applied in this study is content analysis with a qualitative descriptive approach. The analysis instrument refers to the cognitive dimensions C4 (Analyzing), C5 (Evaluating), and C6 (Creating) based on the revised Bloom's taxonomy by Anderson & Krathwohl (2001). The research findings indicate that of a total of 485 questions and activities spread across six chapters, 147 items (30.31%) are classified as HOTS. The highest HOTS distribution was found in Chapter 5 on Linear Equations and Inequalities with One Variable (38.46%), while the lowest was in Chapter 1 on Numbers (22.80%). The most dominant cognitive level is C4-Analyzing (58.50%), followed by C5-Evaluating (28.57%), and C6-Creating (12.93%). This finding indicates that the Independent Curriculum textbooks have integrated HOTS more systematically than the previous curriculum (Fanani, 2018), although the proportion needs to be increased to meet the demands of 21st-century learning.

Abstract: Pecahan merupakan salah satu materi matematika yang penerapannya sering dijumpai dalam kegiatan sehari-hari. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengukur sejauh mana siswa kelas IV SD Negeri 010091 Kisaran Baru memahami konsep pecahan.… han. Metode yang digunakan berbentuk deskriptif kualitatif dengan melibatkan 26 siswa sebagai subjek kajian. Data dihimpun melalui empat cara, yakni tes, pengamatan, wawancara, dan penelusuran dokumen. Hasil kajian memperlihatkan bahwa pemahaman siswa atas konsep pecahan tergolong masih rendah, dibuktikan oleh angka ketuntasan belajar yang hanya menyentuh 23,07%. Kondisi tersebut dipengaruhi oleh sejumlah hal, di antaranya lemahnya penguasaan dasar pecahan, rendahnya keterlibatan siswa saat belajar, serta metode pengajaran yang belum diterapkan secara maksimal. Mengacu pada hasil tersebut, diperlukan strategi pembelajaran yang lebih interaktif untuk mendorong peningkatan pemahaman siswa terhadap pecahan. Fraction is a fundamental mathematical topic that frequently appears in everyday situations. This study set out to examine how well fourth-grade students at SD Negeri 010091 Kisaran Baru grasp the concept of fractions. A qualitative descriptive design was employed, with 26 students taking part as participants. Four data-gathering techniques were used: testing, observation, interviews, and document review. Findings revealed that students’ grasp of fraction concepts was still limited, shown by a completion rate of only 23,07%. Several factors contributed to this outcome, among them a weak foundation in basic fraction concepts, low student involvement during lessons, and teaching methods that had not been optimally applied. Based on these findings, more interactive learning strategies are needed to help strengthen students’ conceptual grasp of fractions.

Ghina Fadhila, Syafrizal, Eri Rahmawati
Abstract: This research was undertaken to analyze the influence of the Wordwall application on the speaking skills of eleventh-grade students at SMAN 1 Ciruas. Consequently, Wordwalluantitative methodology and a quasi-experimental&#8230; design involving 82 participants, organized into two equally sized groups, namely the experimental and control groups. Data collection was conducted through speaking assessments administered prior to and following the treatment. The findings showed that students who received the treatment achieved better improvement in speaking skills than those in the control group. The average score achieved by the experimental group increased from 63.90 to 83.12, whereas the control group’s mean score rose from 66.15 to 74.34. The hypothesis test results revealed a significance value below 0.05 (p < 0.001), providing evidence of a statistically significant difference between the groups. The results point to the fact that the Wordwall application was effective in enhancing students’ speaking skills.. Consequently, Wordwall can be considered an effective technology-based learning tool for promoting speaking skill development in English language learning.

Implementation of Brain-Based Learning to Reduce Mathematics Anxiety in the Teaching of Fractions at Primary School

Erni Nurjanah, Asep Supena
Abstract: This research examines the application of the Brain-Based Learning (BBL) model to reduce math anxiety in teaching fractions at the elementary school level. This study used a quantitative approach with a pretest–posttest&#8230; t quasi-experimental control group design involving two fifth-grade classes: one experimental class that received fraction instruction through BBL and one control class that was taught using conventional methods, with 40 students in each group. Mathematics anxiety related to fractions was measured using a modified mathematics anxiety scale for elementary school students, while fraction achievement was evaluated through a valid written test. The results showed that both groups had relatively equivalent initial abilities, supported by normal and homogeneous pretest data and no significant differences in pretest scores. After the intervention, the experimental class showed consistently lower levels of anxiety related to fractions in all dimensions (tests/assessments, classroom learning situations, fraction tasks, and fraction avoidance) and significantly higher post-test scores than the control class, with an average difference of about seven points. The findings show that BBL, which aligns the learning process with the way the brain naturally learns by fostering positive emotions, multisensory experiences, and meaningful social interaction, is effective in improving students' understanding of fractions while simultaneously reducing their math anxiety. This study offers a unique perspective by conducting an experimental trial of BBL as a targeted intervention for math anxiety related to fractions in Indonesian elementary schools and highlighting its potential as a neuroeducation-based pedagogical strategy to foster numeracy and emotional well-being in math learning.

Finite Element Method for Stress Analysis of an Infinite Plate with an Elliptical Hole Using Functionally Graded Materials

Nguyen, Dien
Abstract: This study investigates the stress concentration factor in an infinite steel plate with a thickness of 1 cm, containing an elliptical hole, subjected to biaxial loading at infinity. The elliptical hole has semi-axes a=5.0 cma&#8230; 0 cma = 5.0 \, \text{cm}a = 5.0 cm (major axis) and b=2.5 cmb = 2.5 \, \text{cm}b = 2.5 cm (minor axis). The applied stresses at infinity are a tensile stress of σ1=100 kg/cm2\sigma_1 = 100 \, \text{kg/cm}^2= 100 kg/parallel to the major axis and a compressive stress of σ2=−100 kg/cm2\sigma_2 = -100 \, \text{kg/cm}^2= -100 kg/ perpendicular to the major axis. The material properties include Young's modulus E=2.1×106 kg/cm2E = 2.1 \times 10^6 \, \text{kg/cm}^2E = 2,1.  kg/ and Poisson's ratioν=0.3\nu = 0.3  = 0.3. Using analytical solutions from classical elasticity theory, the maximum tangential stress at the edge of the ellipse is calculated as σmax=600 kg/cm2\sigma_{\text{max}} = 600 \, \text{kg/cm}^2= -600 kg/, yielding a stress concentration factor of kσ=σmax/σ=6k_\sigma = \sigma_{\text{max}} / \sigma = 6 =  =6. Additionally, a finite element (FE) analysis based on the Salerno and Sahoni problem for a quarter section of the plate results in kσ=3.1125k_\sigma = 3.1125 = 3.1125 for a configuration with s/r=5s/r = 5s/r = 5, showing a discrepancy of 1.3% compared to the theoretical value of kσ=3.1k_\sigma = 3.1= 3.1 from Peterson's Stress Concentration Factors. The results demonstrate good agreement between the calculated model and theoretical predictions, validating the accuracy of the FE approach for stress concentration analysis in such configurations.
