Wikipedia has recently become a popular platform for knowledge sharing and creation. However, the enormously increasing amount of editing has caused management problems with efficiency, accuracy, and convenience for Wikipedia administrators. Therefore, this study aimed to develop an intelligent agent system based on Web 3.0, the evaluation agent system (EAS), to solve these problems. The EAS is characterized by hybrid Web techniques, artificial intelligence, integration of management guidelines, retrieval of real-time information, and the transfer of cross-platform data and includes the following three systems: the testing agent, the wiki agent, and the rule-based expert system (RBES) agent. Because the RBES was central to the EAS, 29 university students were included in the study to examine the effectiveness of the RBES compared to the conventional approach to administration. The findings revealed that the RBES was better than the conventional approach in accuracy, efficiency, operation convenience, and fatigue strength.

In this paper, we propose a new configuration for improving the isolation bandwidth of MMIC single-pole-double-throw (SPDT) passive high-electron-mobility transistor (HEMT) switches operating at millimeter frequency range. While the conventional configuration adopted open-stub loading for compensation of the off-state capacitance, radial stubs were introduced in our approach to improve the operational bandwidth of the SPDT switch. Implemented in 0.15 m GaAs pHEMT technology, the proposed configuration exhibited a measured insertion loss of less than 2.5 dB with better than 30 dB isolation level over the frequency range from 33 GHz to 44 GHz. In terms of the bandwidth of operation, the proposed configuration achieved a fractional bandwidth of 28.5% compared to that of 12.3% for the conventional approach. Such superior bandwidth performance is mainly attributed to the less frequency dependent nature of the radial stubs.

This study was begun at finding description about the mathematics’ teacher did not make relationship between new information to real situation of students and the students’ ability in problem solving was still lower. This problem certainly impacts to mathematics’ belief of students. For making out this problem, a contextual approach in mathematics learning has been being applied. The goals of this research were to know students’ ability in problem solving between contextual and conventional approach and also mathematics’ belief of students after studied using contextual approach. The kind of this research was a quasi experiment. The population was the students of class IX Junior High School 1 Bayang. The research’s instruments are problem solving tests and questionnaire sheets. The result of this research showed the mean of final test in experiment class is higher than control class and also mathematics’ belief of student. Based on the result of the research could be conclude that students’ ability in problem solving and mathematics’ belief with using contextual approach better than conventional approach both high and low prior knowledge’s students.

Effect of Cooperative Model of Jigsaw Type Learning and Student Interest in improving learning outcomes in SMA Negeri 1 Sutera. The research method used in writing this essay in accordance with the type of research is quasi experimental research (quasi experimental), where the research variables can not be fully controlled. This research has a control group. The research design used to measure learning method and student's interest  toward  the result  of  dissemination  of culture and  religion.  This  research  is parenting at level (2x2), with state of student interest level. The results of the study revealed  (1)  the  learning  outcomes  of  students  who  were  taught  by  the  Jigsaw cooperative  model  approach  were  better  than  the  conventional  approach,  (2)  the students' learning outcomes had high interests taught by the Jigsaw type cooperative model better than the conventional approach, (3) learning of students with low interests taught by Jigsaw type cooperative models is better than conventional models.
