Each study program seeks to improve the quality of education and accreditation. One element that becomes the value of accreditation is students who graduate on time. The more active students, the more students will graduate on time. Thus, the head of the study program needs to make predictions of students who will be inactive in the next semester. To make predictions, we must determine what features are needed. This article is the result of feature selection research to predict the active status of students. The selection of features using seven features using the RandomForest package from R Studio. One feature as output is the active status of students and six features as input i.e; grade point (GP), grade point average (GPA), parent work, school majors, school category, and student hometown. The results of the selection of features show the strongest features to the weakest are; grade points (GP), grade point average (GPA), work of parents, majors of origin, schools of origin, and student hometown

The purpose of this study was to obtain an overview of the knowledge and interests of students following the PPAk. This research was conducted by distributing research instruments in the form of questionnaires that were given directly to students who would complete their studies in the S 1 Accounting study program. Students who willbe asked to become respondents are asked to fill out a questionnaire. Grade Point Average (GPA) of students who are respondents above 3.25. The results showed that the existence of PPAk was not fully understood so that there were differences in motivation among respondents. Relevant students are very strongly influenced by the desire to get a job / career, whereas for extension students who generally have worked the interest in obtaining a CA degree is motivated by other than a desire for a career but also a desire to improve the quality of professionalism in accounting. Thus, it seems that the extension of students' understanding of the existence of PPAk is more comprehensive compared to regular students.

From the Faculty of Engineering academic data, Darma Persada University, many students take more than four years of study. The duration of study is one of the problems of the study program manager in terms of academic performance. This study aims to analyze the old patterns of study by students of the Faculty of Engineering, Darma Persada University from academic data. K-Means algorithm clustering technique is used with the variables are majors, the area of origin, age, gender, Grade Point Average (GPA), Semester Credit Unit (SKS), year of entry and study duration. The Waikato Environment for Knowledge Analysis (WEKA) software is used as an analytic tool. The initial stage of research is through collecting data from archives or Academic sections, namely academic data from students of the Faculty of Engineering, Darma Persada University, 2009 to 2014. The next stage is preprocessing data through K-Means algorithm clustering analysis by first calculating many clusters using the Elbow method and result interpretation. From the Elbow method result, the number of clusters used is 4 (four) clusters. Based on the results of the K-Means clustering process, the data sharing in each cluster is cluster 1 (one) totaling 556 data (26%), cluster 2 (two) totaling 414 data (19%), cluster 3 (three) totaling 189 data (9%) and cluster 4 (four) totaling 1010 data (46%). Furthermore, those who have more than 4 years of study are in cluster 2, cluster 3, cluster 4 and students who have a 4-year study period are in cluster 1.</em></p><p class="Judul2"> </p><p class="Abstrak"><em><strong><span lang="IN"><br /></span></strong></em></p>

Abstract:Several factors usually affect student’s Grade Point Average (GPA), including family support, associate friends and learning intensity. This study aims to determine whether there is an indirect effect of family and friends support associating with the cumulative achievement index of students through the excitement of learning as an intervening variable. This type of research is ex-post facto with a population of 278 students of the 2015-2017 Mathematics Tadris Study Program. We used a Proportionate Stratified Random Sampling technique to select a sample of 164 students. We obtained data through questionnaires and documentation and then analyzed using path analysis. The results showed that there was an indirect influence of family and friends support associating with student GPA through the intensity of learning as an intervening variable.Abstrak:Indeks Prestasi Kumulatif (IPK) mahasiswa biasanya dipengaruhi oleh beberapa faktor, diantaranya adalah dukungan keluarga, teman bergaul dan intensitas belajar.

The objective of the paper is to present and compare the results of several international projects and to identify pedagogical and project success elements. The generic projects are few examples that had in common the several objectives: to identify the training needs; to develop an evaluation tool to transform actual and current training offered by corporate /occupational further training institutes ; to improve quality of education to meet the needs of working life. In projects, the training needs were identified involving universities, educational institutions, training and consulting companies from countries across Europe.The selection of the study cases is not random. The intent is to emphasis the consequences-by using similar approach-into distinct project methodologies: one is promoted largely by sponsors from US; the other three are according to the EU rules, regulations, and procedures.

Students are the most important component in a university, especially private universities especially Universitas Islam Darul ‘ulum (Unisda) Lamongan. One of the most important roles of students for higher education is achievement. This study aims to determine the role of Fuzzy Clustering in classifying student performance data. The data includes GPA (Grade Point Average), ECCU (Extra-Curricular Credit Unit), attendance, and students' willingness to learn. So that groups of students who have the potential to have achievements can be identified. In this case, the grouping of student performance data uses Fuzzy Clustering by applying the Fuzzy C-Means (FCM) and Possibilistic C-Means (PCM) algorithms with the help of Matlab. In the FCM algorithm, the membership degree is updated so as to produce a minimum objective function value. Meanwhile, the PCM algorithm uses a T matrix, which shows the peculiarities of the data which are also based on minimizing the objective function.
