The Ace Diary is an online counseling app that provides art therapy features, receptive music therapy, journaling, a chat room, emergency calling, loving quotes, and scheduling based on quadrant-time of 4th generation time management information architecture. Furthermore, counselors can monitor activities on the app. These features had not been integrated before, which is why a basic design was developed for this purpose by using the M. Asimov model to design this app. The visual strategy used for showing a typical journaling diary is lines with brushstroke and calming pastel colors. Ace Diary has six primary pages: drawing, venting, scheduling, room chat and calling, quotes, and record tracking. The different group pages have different background colors so that audiences can distinguish the page’s functions. Students’ picture profiles are created using an illustration in the same design style to keep identities confidential. Keywords: strategic journaling design, quadrant-time of 4th generation of time management, pastel colors, brushstroke

Smartphones have become devices of choice for running studies on health and well-being, especially among young people. When entering college, students often face many challenges, such as adaptation to new situations, establish new interpersonal relationships, heavier workload and shorter deadlines, teamwork assignments and others. In this paper, the results of four studies examining students' well-being and mental health as well as student's perception of challenges and obstacles they face during their academic journey are presented. In addition, a mobile application that acts as a complement to a successful tutoring project implemented at the authors' University is proposed. The application allows students to keep their schedules and deadlines in one place while incorporating virtual tutor features. By using both, the events from the student's calendar and his or her mood indicators, the application sends notifications accordingly. These notifications encompass motivational phrases, time management guidelines, as well as relaxation tips.

The rapid spread of the COVID-19 pandemic made it necessary to take serious precautions in the field of education, so schools were closed in many countries and switched to online education. The pandemic has caused similar changes in higher education institutions in Turkey. The motivation of the students is an important component in achieving the targeted success of the rapidly adapted online education. This study aims to investigate the factors that affect the motivation of management information systems students towards online education conducted during the COVID-19 pandemic. The findings reveal that the role of instructor, system support, and time management come to the fore in students' positive motivation. On the other hand, ineffective group work, failure to achieve career goals, prolonged pandemic period, and breakdown in social relationships have influence on students' negative motivation. It is expected that this study will guide policy developers for distance education and instructional strategies to be developed in the field of management information systems.

There has been a recent rise in online counseling applications in response to the increased need for counseling during this pandemic. Unfortunately, the concept of online counseling apps in Indonesia is still premature because the apps just connect counselee and counselor via chat or call. These apps cannot monitor the self-development tasks that the counselors gives to the counselee, even though this is a requirement of the counseling process. The researchers in this study used M. Asimov’s model to design a new mobile app. The features to monitor self-development tasks divide into yearly, monthly and weekly planning. The information system categorizes into time and fourth quadrants of time. It is hoped that the counselee can use this to manage their activities based on the importance level to help achieve their goals. Keywords: Mobile apps, online counseling, self-development tasks monitoring, four quadrants of time

ABSTRACT<br />Student organizations (ORMAWA) are a place for students to develop interests, talents, skills and social abilities. Research shows that ORMAWA provides benefits for students such as training leadership, time management, networking, social skills, problem-solving and conflict management and being able to increase learning motivation. STMIK STIKOM Indonesia views ORMAWA had an important role in student personal development. Currently, STMIK STIKOM Indonesia had 32 ORMAWA who obliged to guided and supervised. STMIK STIKOM Indonesia has difficulties in knowing the conditions and assessing ORMAWA because administrative management is still manual. The system for managing the administration of student organizations is needed to help institutions guide student organizations. This system will provide information about the condition of ORMAWA. The assessment of the condition of ORMAWA based on member activeness, number of activities, number of participants and discipline on administration. The assessment is done using the Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) method. The results of this study indicate that it has successfully developed an information system for student administration management. Information systems can generate information on activeness of ORMAWA, ORMAWA activities and ORMAWA condition reports with SAW calculations. The saw method is not suitable to be used in determining the conditions of the people. This because the assessment is carried out relative to other ORMAWA conditions. This relative assessment can produce different assessments of the same conditions.<br />Keywords: Simple Additive Weighting, assessment using multi criteria, student organizations, administrative management, information systems<br />ABSTRAK<br />Organisasi kemahasiswaan (ORMAWA) merupakan wadah mahasiswa untuk mengembangkan minat, bakat, keahlian dan kemampuan sosial. Penelitian menunjukkan bahwa ORMAWA memberikan manfaat bagi mahasiswa seperti melatih leadership, belajar mengatur waktu, memperluas jaringan, mengasah kemampuan sosial, problem solving dan manajemen konflik serta mampu meningkatkan motivasi belajar mahasiswa. STMIK STIKOM Indonesia memandang organisasi kemahasiswaan memiliki peran yang sangat penting bagi pengembangan diri mahasiswa. STMIK STIKOM Indonesia saat ini memiliki 32 ORMAWA yang wajib dibina dan diawasi. Pengelolalan administrasi kemahasiswaan saat ini dilakukan secara manual sehingga menyulitkan institusi untuk mengetahui kondisi dan memberikan penilaian terhadap kondisi ORMAWA. Sistem untuk mengelola administrasi organisasi kemahasiswaan diperlukan untuk membantu institusi melakukan pengawasan dan pembinaan terhadap organisasi kemahasiswaan. Sistem ini akan memberikan informasi mengenai kondisi organisasi kemahasiswaan. Penilaian kondisi organisasi kemahasiswaan didasarkan pada keaktifan anggota organisasi kemahasiswaan, jumlah kegiatan, partisipasi mahasiswa dalam kegiatan kemahasiswaan, dan kedisiplinan organisasi kemahasiswaan dalam hal administrasi. Penilaiannya dilakukan dengan menggunakan metode Simple Additive Weighting (SAW).Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan telah berhasil mengembangkan sistem informasi pengelolaan administrasi kemahasiswaan. Sistem informasi yang dikembangkan dapat menghasilkan informasi keaktifan ORMAWA, kegiatan ORMAWA dan laporan kondisi ORMAWA dengan perhitungan SAW. Metode SAW belum tepat digunakan dalam penentuan kondisi ORMAWA. Hal ini disebabkan karena penilaian dilakukan secara relatif terhadap kondisi ormawa yang lain. Penilaian secara relatif ini dapat menghasilkan penilaian yang berbeda terhadap kondisi yang sama.<br />Kata Kunci: Simple Additive Weighting, penilaian menggunakan multi kriteria, organisasi kemahasiswaan, pengelolaan administrasi, sistem informasi
