Abstract: Abstract: INET Computer Palembang, as a computer training institution, faces difficulties in understanding participant characteristics due to variations in age, educational background, and chosen course packages. This study… udy aims to analyze participant criteria and group them based on similarities using the K-Means Clustering algorithm. The data used were historical records of course participants from 2022 to 2025. The research process followed the CRISP-DM stages, starting from data cleaning and transformation, determining the optimal number of clusters using the Elbow Method, to evaluating cluster quality with the Davies-Bouldin Index. The implementation was carried out using Python and the scikit-learn library. The results show that the optimal number of clusters is k=5 with a Sum of Squared Errors (SSE) value of 1064.66 and a Davies-Bouldin Index (DBI) score of 0.820, indicating good cluster quality. The resulting clustering provides a structured profile of participants and demonstrates that K-Means is effective in segmenting course participants. These findings are expected to assist the institution in designing more targeted training programs. Keywords: clustering; data mining; elbow method; k-means; computer course

INTEGRATED AHP-TOPSIS DECISION SYSTEM FOR FAIR STUDENT PERFORMANCE EVALUATION

Hafiz, Rahmad, Triyono, Gandung, Assegaf , Noval, Yasmin , Nadia, Effendi , Muhtar
Abstract: Giving awards is essential to motivate students; however, selecting outstanding students at the junior high school level is often conducted manually and subjectively, which can lead to unfairness and prolonged processing… time. This study develops a Decision Support System (DSS) that integrates the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) and the Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) to support objective and transparent student selection. A quantitative descriptive approach was employed, with data collected through questionnaires, interviews, and documentation at two state junior high schools in Banjarmasin City. Seven assessment criteria were applied: attendance, behavior, uniform neatness, extracurricular participation, academic grades, competition achievements, and disciplinary records. AHP was used to determine the weight of each criterion, while TOPSIS ranked students based on these weights. The web-based system was developed using PHP and MySQL and evaluated using the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). Results show that academic grades had the highest weight (28.5%), followed by attendance (22.3%) and competition performance (15.2%). The TAM evaluation yielded average scores of 4.32 for Perceived Ease of Use, 4.40 for Perceived Usefulness, 4.15 for Attitudes Towards Use, and 4.28 for Behavioral Intention to Use. The DSS produces accurate rankings, is well-received by users, and offers an efficient, fair, and replicable solution for data-driven educational governance in the digital era.

Abstract: Abstract: Advancements in digital technology have significantly transformed communication and learning. Traditional learning methods have limitations in providing a fast and interactive learning environment, necessitating… g accessible technology that enhances student and teacher engagement while ensuring convenience. WhatsApp has emerged as a widely used solution due to its accessibility, privacy features, and cross-platform compatibility, offering users a sense of convenience. This study examines the role of Perceived Convenience in the acceptance and use of WhatsApp in secondary education in Medan City using the UTAUT2 Model. A survey was conducted with 439 respondents from 8 secondary schools in Medan and analyzed using SEM-PLS with SmartPLS-4. The results indicate that social influence, hedonic motivation, habit, and perceived convenience positively impact the intention to use WhatsApp. Additionally, facilitating conditions, perceived convenience, and intention to use significantly influence actual usage behavior. However, performance expectancy, effort expectancy, and price value do not affect either intention or behavior in using WhatsApp. Moderating variables such as age, gender, and experience partially moderate the relationships between independent factors and WhatsApp usage intention and behavior. This study contributes by incorporating Perceived Convenience into the UTAUT2 Model and affirming its role in educational technology adoption.             Keywords: perceived convenience; secondary education; UTAUT2; whatsapp     Abstrak: Kemajuan teknologi digital telah membawa perubahan signifikan dalam komunikasi dan pembelajaran.
