The scholarships given to the University of Muhammadiyah Sidoarjo include outstanding scholarships (PPA) and underprivileged scholarships (BBP). During the selection made by the university which has 9 faculties throughout the university by manual method. Although there are requirements and files that must be submitted during registration as a potential recipient, this still supports the objectivity of the selection being carried out. For this reason, it is necessary to have an innovation digitally in the selection process for this scholarship recipient. Selection system that was built practically, quickly, and accurately. For this reason, it is necessary to support the support of a client-server application and also the Fuzzy TOPSIS algorithm to determine the results of calculations and rankings based on the calculation value of each student who has been registered as a scholarship recipient. In this study, an application that is a client server has been made, where students can enter prospective scholarship recipients online. The application made has implemented the TOPSIS Fuzzy Algorithm for sorting or ranking. So that this selection work is considered faster, easier and has objective results based on the system. From the applications that have been made, 1,000 students have been tested with the composition of quotas on PPA scholarships as many as 370 and 875 for BBP scholarships. Of the 1000 data on registered students, 239 met the top ranking requirements which were declared PPA scholarship recipients. As well as the top 793 students as BBP scholarship recipients, a letter of recommendation will be printed automatically based on the information the student has received as a scholarship candidate. This trial application recommendation is for ± 3 minutes. With an average value of 77.60% satisfactory..

For students, scholarships are important to ease the burden on parents, namely tuition fees.The large number of scholarship applicants is a challenge for FSM to be able to provide an appropriate, effective and efficient decision to manage data on scholarship recipients who are truly entitled to receive scholarships. Prospective scholarship recipients are selected based on the criteria determined by FSM.The criteria determined by the FSM are GPA (Grade Point Average), parent income, number of certificates, number of dependents of parents, semester, and electricity. The method applied to select 170 PPA scholarship recipients (Academic Achievement Improvement) is FSAW (Fuzzy Simple Additive Weighting) and FTOPSIS (Fuzzy Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution) with entropy weighting. This entropy weighting does                                             a combination of the initial weight that has been determined by FSM and the calculation weight. This research was conducted with the help of MATLAB (Matrix Laboratory)  GUI (Graphical User Interface) as a computing tool. With the MATLAB GUI system built, it can simplify and speed up the selection process. FSAW and FTOPSIS calculation results are 96% the same, while FSAW with FSM is only 39% the same and FTOPSIS with FSM is only 42% the same.The FSAW and FTOPSIS methods are better used than the determination of the FSM, because the results of the FSM are not appropriate.FSM selects manually by looking at files collected by registrants. Keywords:Scholarship, FSAW, FTOPSIS, Entropy, GUI

The Internet is the easiest means to do online promotion, online buying and testing online. Smartzone Media Studio is a place for courses in architecture. Prospective participants in Smartzone Media Studio must go through the screening step to find out the level of computer knowledge and skills and architectural design. During this time the process is still done manually, that is the prospective participants do the test on the paper, then the results of the answers checked by the examiner, after which the testers calculate the average value to determine at which level the prospective participants will be placed. In order to make the selection process easier and faster, Smartzone Media Studio needs a more effective way, then made a website-based selection system with Naïve Bayes algorithm. With this system the assessment and placement of prospective participants is done through the website, so the exam can be done anywhere without having to come to the course. With this system the results of grouping course participants can be more quickly and accurately.

Abstract:The development of an innovative clinical decision-support project such as the University of Minnesota’s Clinical Workstation initiative mandates the use of modern client-server network architectures. Preexisting conventional laboratory information systems (LIS) cannot be quickly replaced with client-server equivalents because of the cost and relative unavailability of such systems. Thus, embedding strategies that effectively integrate legacy information systems are needed. Our strategy led to the adoption of a multi-layered connection architecture that provides a data feed from our existing LIS to a new network-based relational database management system. By careful design, we maximize the use of open standards in our layered connection structure to provide data, requisition, or event messaging in several formats. Each layer is optimized to provide needed services to existing hospital clients and is well positioned to support future hospital network clients.

Grant scholarships to students are conducted by the University based on the achievements achieved. Since the last few years Bhayangkara University has run a Joint Degree Program scholarship in cooperation with Thailand, India, and plans to continue to the Netherlands. In scholarship grants, the Universityoften finds it difficult to determine the scholarship recipients, so it is found that scholarships are not accurate due to the manual system for the awarding of scholarships. The decision support system is an information system aimed at assisting the University in solving the problem of awarding Joint Degree Program scholarship. One method that can be used in decision support systems is Analitycal Hierarchy Process (AHP). The Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method takes into account the extent of validity to the extent of inconsistency tolerance of the various criteria and alternatives chosen by the decision maker. In this research, the data used is UBHARA student data 3 last generation. The criteria used are GPA, TOEFL score, TPA Test Score, and Value of Communication Skill Test. From the results of experiments carried out the results of manual calculations of the application and manual calculations from the Institute of Cooperation get a presentation 100% equation in determining scholarship recipients. So as to produce the ranking of students, two students with the highest score in each department that will get a Joint Degree Program scholarship.Keywords: Scholarship, Student, Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP), Decision Support System.

Due to the important advantages it offers, gamification is one of the fastest-growing industries in the world, and interest from the market and from users continues to grow. This has led to the development of more and more applications aimed at different fields, and in particular the education sector. Choosing the most suitable application is increasingly difficult, and so to solve this problem, our study designed a model which is an innovative combination of fuzzy Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) with the Measuring Attractiveness by a Categorical Based Evaluation Technique (MACBETH) and Shannon entropy theory, to choose the most suitable gamification application for the Industrial Manufacturing and Organisation Systems course in the degree programmes for Electrical Engineering and Industrial and Automatic Electronics at the Higher Technical School of Industrial Engineering of Ciudad Real, part of the University of Castilla-La Mancha. There is no precedent in the literature that combines MACBETH and fuzzy Shannon entropy to simultaneously consider the subjective and objective weights of criteria to achieve a more accurate model. The objective weights computed from fuzzy Shannon entropy were compared with those calculated from De Luca and Termini entropy and exponential entropy. The validity of the proposed method is tested through the Preference Ranking Organisation METHod for Enrichment of Evaluations (PROMETHEE) II, ELimination and Choice Expressing REality (ELECTRE) III, and fuzzy VIKOR method (VIsekriterijumska optimizacija i KOmpromisno Resenje). The results show that Quizizz is the best option for this course, and it was used in two academic years. There are no precedents in the literature using fuzzy multicriteria decision analysis techniques to select the most suitable gamification application for a degree-level university course.

It is urgent to evaluate the rest of the renewed elements within the university didactic action, overcoming the hegemony of traditional methods in which the professor constitutes as the sole evaluator. If autonomous and cooperative group-based learning is encouraged, self-assessment and co-assessment must also be promoted, apart from the traditional lecturing and evaluation by others. The assessing competence of Teacher Training degree students (n = 175) was researched, started with stratified sampling (in the second and fourth years), following a participant selection process in each group. The compiled data were subject to descriptive, inferential, and correlation analysis by means of statistical software. The results pointed to low execution levels as for the self-evaluation (individual and group), although a certain progress was identified in the four year students compared to those in their second year of study. A better execution in evaluation was observed in all students regarding co-assessment (among different work groups in the classroom) and assessment by others (towards the professor). The use of all types of assessment is proposed, having a certain awareness and training regarding self-evaluation, and counting with a full supervision and control over it. All in all, the advantages of multiple and democratic assessment surpass the drawbacks derived from them.

[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Universities commercialize their discoveries at an increasing pace in order to maximize their economic impact and generate additional funding for research. They form technology transfer offices (TTOs) to evaluate the commercial value of university inventions and choose the most promising ones to patent and commercialize. Uncertainties and asymmetric information in project selection make the TTO choices difficult and can cause both type 1 error (forgo valuable discoveries) and type 2 error (select low-value discoveries). In this dissertation, I examine the TTO's project selection process and the factors that influence the choice of academic inventions for patenting and commercialization, the type 1 error committed, and the final licensing outcome. The dissertation contains three essays. In the first essay, I analyze project selection under uncertainty when both the quality of the proposed project and the motives of the applicant are uncertain. Some inventors may have an incentive to disguise the true quality and commercial value of their discoveries in order to conform to organizational expectations of disclosure while retaining rights to potentially pursue commercialization of their discoveries outside the organization's boundaries for their own benefit. Inventors may equally, ex post, lose interest to the commercialization of their invention due to competing job demands. I develop a model to examine the decision process of a university TTO responsible for the commercialization of academic inventions under such circumstances. The model describes the conditions that prompt Type 1 and Type 2 errors and allows for inferences for minimizing each. Little is known about the factors that make project selection effective or the opposite and there has been limited empirical analysis in this area. The few empirical studies that are available, examine the sources of type 2 error but there is no empirical work that analyzes type 1 error and the contributing factors. Research on type 1 error encounters two main difficulties. First, it is difficult to ascertain the decision process and second, it is challenging to approximate the counterfactual. Using data from the TTO of the University of Missouri, in the second essay I study the factors that influence the project selection process of the TTO in and the ex post type 1 error realized. In most cases, universities pursue commercialization of their inventions through licensing. There have been a few empirical studies that have researched the factors that affect licensing and their relative importance. In the third essay, I examine the characteristics of university inventions that are licensed using almost 10 years of data on several hundred of inventions, their characteristics, and the licensing status.
