This study aims to develop anti-corruption education materials based on integrity values for elementary school students in Yogyakarta. This research is a research and development using ADDIE (Analyze, Design, develop, implement, evaluate) development models. Data was obtained through literature studies, observation, interviews, and Focus Group Discussion (FGD) which were then processed descriptively qualitative. The results showed that the ADDIE model used to develop the material illustrates that the integrity value that is most needed to be developed in anti-corruption education for elementary school students is the value of honesty and simplicity, this is obtained from the analysis in the development of ADDIE and reinforced by the answers given by the teacher during FGD, where 31.50% of teachers chose honesty values and 23.3% of teachers chose the value of simplicity

The respondent also conveyed that accounting subject was difficult owing to many calculations and formulas, that the accounting carrier was not prospective for the next 10 years and that the proffesion had highest risk that other professions. Moreover, the respondents mostly had no information that Stikom Surabaya provides accounting study. They just acknowledged that Stikom was imaged as the campus of engineering, information technology and design.Keyword : Accountant profession, accounting department, perception about accounting ABSTRAK: Jurusan akuntansi adalah salah satu jurusan favorit yang diminati siswa SMA pada bidang Soshum dan profesi akuntan adalah profesi dengan peluang kerja yang luas. Akan tetapi tenaga profesi akuntan masih minim dan hal ini juga berdampak pada Stikom Surabaya dengan jumlah mahasiswa baru pada jurusan akuntansi paling sedikit peminatnya dibanding dengan jurusan lainnya. Hal ini perlu digali dari persepsi masyarakat tentang akuntansi yaitu profesi dan kuliah pada jurusan akuntansi agar dapat memberikan informasi penyebab tentang sedikitnya minat studi pada jurusan akuntansi Stikom Surabaya.

The analysis also found that the past communities in the Yomokho site lived the traditional house. The main factor to consider this site as the place to live in the past was based on the location that nearby the lake and sago forest.Penelitian di Kawasan Danau Sentani dilakukan di Situs Yomokho untuk mengetahui strategi pemilihan tempat tinggal manusia pendukung budaya Situs Yomokho, dan pola subsistensi. Untuk itu dalam penelitian ini dilakukan survei permukaan tanah dan ekskavasi. Hasil ekskavasi di Situs Yomokho diperoleh temuan berupa fragmen gerabah polos maupun hias. Berdasarkan analisis data diketahui bahwa fragmen gerabah hanya ditemukan di lapisan tanah bagian atas yang berwarna hitam. Kondisi Bukit Yomokho berupa lereng bukit yang miring. Diasumsikan manusia pendukung Situs Yomokho tinggal di rumah panggung, tidak semua bagian bukit dipilih untuk mendirikan tempat tinggal, tetapi disesuaikan dengan kondisi lereng bukit dan kondisi tanah. Pemilihan Situs Yomokho sebagai hunian masa lalu didasarkan pada lokasinya yang dekat dengan danau dan didukung oleh keberadaan hutan sagu.

This research is aimed to find the effectivity of Focus Group Discussion (FGD) to decrease the feeling stress for senior high school students (SMA) who will face the national final examination (UAN). Stress on SMA students is a circumstance which gets negative assessment. It intimidates and pushes the students, in this case is UAN would appear a reaction such as emotional disorder, cognition, physiology and behavior disorder of SMA students. This research concerned 21 SMA students in grade XII, who had high stress level in facing UAN. The subjects were divided into two groups. First group was the experiment group (include 11 students) and it was the group who got the FGD treatment. The second group was control group (include 10 students) and this group didn’t get the FGD treatment. Collecting data was done by using Stress Scale in facing UAN. It was given (a) before FGD (pre-test) and (b) after FGD (post-test). The hypothesis is examined by using difference examination (t-test) by comparing mean pre-test and post-test. The result showed that there was a significant influence to decrease the stress in SMA students who were in experiment group (t = 6,540, p < 0,01) after they got FGD treatment. Experiment group had decreased the stress score to face UAN (Mean=7,476).

The study investigated the influence of journal writing on the senior high school students’ attitude toward mathematics. A mixed-method approach, particularly the convergent parallel design, was used in this study. Using Scale on Attitude Toward Mathematics (SATM) (Guce & Talens, 2013), the students’ attitude toward the subject was measured in four subscales—liking or disliking mathematics, tendency to engage in or avoid mathematical activities, belief that one is good or bad in mathematics and belief that mathematics is useful or useless. Using focus group discussion, the insights of the students on journal writing as a mathematics class activity were gathered. Results using quantitative data revealed positive significant differences in the attitude of the respondents in terms of (i) liking mathematics and (ii) having the tendency to engage in mathematical activities. This aligned with the result in the focus group discussion which suggested that students perceive journal writing as a helpful tool for them to enjoy mathematics and engage in it. The activity, thus, may be regarded as a means to improve students’ attitude toward mathematics.
