Speech-Language Pathologists’ Perceptions and Satisfaction towards Computer-Based National Examination

Objectives: This study aimed to investigate speech-language pathologists’ perceptions and satisfaction with the computer-based examination after conducting a computer-based examination including a new question type developed in advance of the CBT for speech-language pathologists to lay the foundation for efficient operation of the national examination for speech-language pathologists.Methods: A total of 98 participants (11 males, 87 females) who had taken and passed the national examination for speech-language pathologists within the last 3 years participated in the current examination, and 75 (10 males and 65 females) applicants completed the survey following the examination.Results: Regarding the need to introduce CBT in the national examination for speech-language pathologists, the most common perception was ‘necessary’ (58.7%), and the most common perception was ‘not more time-consuming’ (46.7%) for the computer test compared to the paper test. Satisfaction with the CBT was most likely to be ‘satisfied’ (49.3%), and the convenience of the CBT was equally split between ‘convenient’ (41.3%) and ‘not convenient’ (41.3%) compared to the paper test. Comprehensive assessment of the applicant’s problem-solving skills by simulating realistic clinical situations (73.3%) was perceived as the biggest advantage of the CBT. On the other hand, inconvenience in calculations (62.7%) was perceived as the main disadvantage.Conclusion: Speech-language pathologists perceived the transition to CBT positively and were satisfied with the testing method. However, discomfort in operating the computer and unfamiliarity with the test method were still perceived as difficulties in the CBT. Overall, it is necessary to provide guidance on the test method and ensure technical stability so that the CBT for speech-language pathologists can be systematically implemented.

Access of Information, Communication, and Technology (ICT) and Learning Performance of Junior High School Students in Indonesia: Analysis at the District Level

One of the goals of educational development is that education must be accessible to everyone. Both accessibility and quality of education have to be attained to assure human resource development. Unfortunately, the academic achievement of Indonesian students in recent years is still unsatisfactory. Meanwhile, the development of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is inseparable from human life. ICT has become one of the solutions to improve educational quality. This study aims to analyze the effect of ICT access on the learning performance of Indonesian junior high school (SMP) students. ICT access in this study focuses on basic facilities and infrastructure that schools must possess based on indicators of sustainable development goals, namely availability of computers, access to the internet, and electricity. This study uses cross-sectional data from regencies/cities in Indonesia in 2018 with the Ordinary Least Square (OLS) model based on the theoretical framework of education production functions using Computer-Based National Examination (UNBK) data as a dependent variable. Study results show that the availability of computers in schools and ICT facilities in households has a significant positive effect on the learning performance of SMP students in Indonesia. Meanwhile, the availability of access to electricity and school internet has not affected the learning performance of SMP students. The independent control variables of school characteristics (the student-to-teacher ratio and class conditions) and socioeconomic characteristics (population density) show significant positive results on the learning performance of SMP students. National examination scores in Eastern Indonesia tend to be lower than those in other regions. In this regard, the government needs to focus on the improvement and equity of ICT resources.

Implementation of the Principle of Equality Before The Law in Corruption Court Decisions

Equality before the law is a basic principle in positive law in Indonesia which is called the Principle of Equality Before The Law, this aims to protect the human rights of citizens and to fight discrimination and the arbitrariness of rulers, but in practice, there are still many constitutions that have not been carrying out these basic principles, especially in acts of corruption as occurred in the corruption case in the procurement of 1,800 computer units for the 2018 computer-based National Examination worth Rp. This case clearly shows that the law in Indonesia tends to side with the authorities so a stigma arises in society that the law in Indonesia is blunt up and down. Of course, this phenomenon has reduced public trust in the government, especially in law enforcement

DIGITAL DIVIDE PELAKSANAAN UJIAN NASIONAL BERBASIS KOMPUTER

Indonesia has a fairly serious problem in the distribution of technology, the Computer-Based National Examination (UTBK) policy implemented in Pesawaran Regency is a concern because of some differences with other regions that also implement UTBK.

Development of “PRO Rakyat" Application for Cost Reduction and Effectiveness of Examination

Government Regulation No. 19 of 2005 concerning National Education Standards, explains that the government and education units need to assess student learning outcomes. Technological advances coupled with the call of the Ministry of Education and Culture of the Republic of Indonesia to carry out the Computer-Based National Examination made paper-based exam began to be abandoned. This research uses the research and development method with the analytic, design, development, implementation and evaluation (ADDIE) model. However, in practice, there are still many educational units that have not been able to carry out due to various reasons including not having adequate infrastructure. Therefore a computer-based test model and or smartphone that is designed can be used without the need for high-specification devices. This model was designed with open source software namely Debian, NGINX, PHP-FPM, Moodle, PostgreSQL, and PFSense. The concept of the server is optimized so that only one server can accommodate hundreds of students in one session without requiring high specifications. Finding of the research are; testing using a computer and/or smartphone does not require high specifications on either the client or server-side, the interface that is designed neatly and simply makes it easy for test-takers to operate the application, test takers become more free and calm in carrying out exams using computers and or smartphones, exams using computers and/or smartphones have more flexibility in terms of question variations, exams using computers and / or smartphones are more cost-effective, exams using computers and/or smartphones are more desirable than paper exams.

Exploring the Influence of Computer-Based National Examination on English Teaching Process: Voices from Indonesian EFL Teachers

Currently, the government of Indonesia has implemented a computer-based test for the national examination for secondary schools in Indonesia.

Trends, patterns, and the relationship of computer-based national examination of high school science students

This study provides an initial statistical approach as an alternative model to detect the fraudulent practice estimation of national examination (NE). Trends, patterns, and relationships were analysed from the national examination (NE) scores and the national examination integrity index (NEII) on pre-and post-computer-based national examination (CBNE) of the 103,273 high school science students in Aceh Province. Looking at the trends and patterns of the pre-post CBNE implementation, descriptive statistics were used by comparing the average (Mean) of the NE, NEII, and the standard deviation of national examination (SDNE) in the group of regencies/cities. Picturing the relationship between the NE and NEII, linear regression and curve estimation was applied. The result shows that there are striking differences and gradual changes between the pre-post CBNE’s implementation in each regency/city. In the span of three years (2015-2017), a downward trend showed in the NE’s scores along with the implementation of CBNE which increased the NEII’s value. In the pre-CBNE period (2015), a striking pattern emerged in the form of low NEII, high NE, and low SDNE which indicated the existence of fraudulent practice estimation of the national examination.
