In the wake of coronavirus pandemic, social distancing became a mandate that led to the transition from traditional classroom-based lectures to computer-based learning. This paper extensively deals with the ranking of the challenges faced by instructors and students. Primary data from 624 participants (399 students and 225 instructors) is collected through a questionnaire. To assign the ranking to the challenges, Technique of Order Preference Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) is deployed. A contextual model is developed by using Interpretive Structural Model (ISM) technique that further provides recommendations for prioritizing the challenges that need to be addressed to mitigate the problems faced in online lectures in coronavirus situation. The number of variables is reduced to simplify the interpretation by exploratory factor analysis. The study also provides the basis to formulate the strategies for policymakers and administration after identifying which challenges need to be addressed first for mitigating all the other challenges.

Klasifikasi pelabuhan perikanan Indonesia yang terdiri atas PelabuhanPerikanan Samudera, Pelabuhan Perikanan Nusantara, Pelabuhan PerikananPantai, dan Pusat Pendaratan Ikan. Klasifikasi tersebut di atas didasari hubungan inti plasma di mana pelabuhan perikanan yang besar ditunjang beberapa pelabuhan perikanan yang lebih kecil (Direktorat Jenderal Perikanan Tangkap, 2008). Hubungan inti plasma tersebut tidak berjalan karena tidak mempunyai pola hubungan yang jelas. Oleh sebab itu diperlukan alternatif klasifikasi pelabuhan perikanan dengan memasukan unsur jaringan industri seperti yang diusulkan oleh Israel & Rouqe (2000) yang mengklasifikasikan pelabuhan perikanan menjadi tiga yaitu penyedia jasa utama, penyedia jasa antara (server), dan client. Penelitian ini bertujuan menentukan klasifikasi sentra industri perikanan berbasis pelabuhan perikanan dalam jaringan industri yang efektifdan efisien dilakukan di Kabupaten Belitung selama 11 bulan sejak Oktober 2007 sampai Agustus 2008. Metode yang dipergunakan adalah multi criteria analysis yang dilanjutkan dengan analisis technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution. Parameter yang diukur meliputi infrastruktur pelabuhan perikanan, kapasitas kapal perikanan, kemandirian faktor input, dan produksi. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa Pulau Belitung berperan sebagai penyedia jasa utama, Pulau Mendanau, dan Pulau Seliu berperan sebagai penyedia jasa antara (server), dan Pulau Gersik dan Pulau Sumedang berperan sebagai client.Klasifikasi pelabuhan perikanan dalam suatu jaringan industri berimplikasi pada peningkatan efektivitas dan efisiensi pembangunan pelabuhan perikanan tangkap sebagai sentra industri perikanan tangkap.Indonesian government classify fishing port into 4 categories namely Ocean Fishing Port, National Fishing Port, Sea Shore Fishing Port, and Fish Landing Fishing Port. The above classification based on partnership or lingkage industry among fishing ports. However, the lingkage industry do not run effectively due to unappropriate pattern. Improving the condition, Israel & Roque (2000) suggested to classify fishing port into 3 categories namely main service provider, intermediate service provider or server, and client. This paper describes an alternative formula that considers industrial linkage among fishing ports as fishing industrial centers. The research was held on Belitung Regency as long as 11 months from October 2007 to August 2008. There are several factors should be considered in building fishing port namely fishing facilities, fishing capacity, input dependency and fish landing capacity. The 4 factors are analyzed by multi criteria analysis then continued by technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution analysis. The research concludes that the Belitung is as the main service provider, the Mendanau Island and Seliu Islands are as the intermediate service provider or server, the other 2 islands are as the client. The new classification will increase effectiveness and efficiency of fishing port developments.

Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is a newly discovered infectious disease caused by a virus named "coronavirus." The lockdown due to COVID 19 has largely affected the lives of students as they no more get to interact on a one on one basis with their teachers. This shift in education from traditional classroom learning to computer-based learning might be one of the largest educational experiments to date. As the online teaching-learning process has become more prevalent in India due to COVID 19 pandemic, it becomes particularly important to know its growth and to know whether it's actually helping the students achieve what they expect out of college. The present study was therefore designed to understand the student's perspective, attitudes, and readiness about online classes being conducted at the University level. An Observational, Descriptive study was conducted. The data was collected using a Questionnaire. The present study was carried out amongst 200 students. After analyzing the results, it was found that 74% of the students liked studying through online classes. The most common reason (49%) as to why the students like studying online were that the study time becomes flexible, and they can study anytime they want. Lack of co-curricular activity was the most common issue (34%) of online classes, as reported by the students. Most of the students were found satisfied with the content and procedure of online teaching. About 30% of the students reported that they prefer their lecture being delivered through a PPT with an audio recording. The present study that was conducted among college students revealed that maximum students are in favor of studying through online classes, but they feel that there is a lack of co-curricular activities in the online mode of conducting classes. As the students are in favor of online classes, such classes must be continued with some interventions.  Education  Ministry must develop certain rules and guidelines wherein certain online activity sessions can be made compulsory along with regular lecture sessions.

The problem of leadership in decision-making still uses the choice of methods and assessment processes subjectively so that the process is not in accordance with the goals of the career path. Therefore, it is necessary to make a Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) Method to help make decisions. In this study, using the criteria set by the company, namely planning, learning, evaluation, and training. The ranking results obtained from testing the calculations that the alternative Tutor F is the best tutor with the results of the calculation of 0.804 when compared to the other twelve alternatives. The TOPSIS method has a data accuracy rate of 85% from thirteen alternatives and can be used as a support for leadership decisions to make recommendations for increasing the career path of tutors.

Zusammenfassung. Der vorliegende Beitrag entwickelt auf der Basis von pädagogischen Überlegungen und lernpsychologischen Forschungsergebnissen zur computerunterstützten Wissensvermittlung eine Konzeptualisierung von E-Learning-Systemen und deren von konsequentem Qualitätsmanagement begleitete Umsetzung. Die vorgestellte theoriegeleitete Vorgehensweise wird anhand der Entwicklung und Realisierung des internetgestützten Lernsystems “CLIC Computer-based Learning: Introduction to Communications“ veranschaulicht, das an der Universität Erfurt erarbeitet wird. Der Aufsatz befasst sich sowohl mit der Koordination auf der Ebene der Produktion (Didaktik, Inhalt, Technik) als auch auf der Ebene der Rezeption (Lern- und Kommunikationsformen, Lernorganisation). Die explorativ angelegte Evaluation des ersten Einsatzes von CLIC belegt ein weitgehend gelungenes Konzept und Qualitätsmanagement. Vorgestellt werden ausgewählte Evaluationsergebnisse zur Koordination und Organisation der Wissensvermittlung sowie des sozialen Kontaktes zwischen Studierenden und Dozierenden. Anhand von drei in der Evaluation empirisch ermittelten E-Learning-Typen werden Probleme und Potenziale beim E-Learning aufgezeigt und Schlussfolgerungen für die koordinierende Gestaltung von E-Learning-Systemen gezogen.

Beasiswa Peningkatan Prestasi Akademik (PPA) sebagai salah satu bentuk dukungan pemerintah Republik Indonesia terhadap dunia pendidikan. Beasiswa yang disalurkan oleh pemerintah melalui Perguruan Tinggi yang ada di Indonesia ini, penyeleksian dan penetapan penerimanya sepenuhnya diserahkan kepada pihak Perguruan Tinggi yang bersangkutan. Tahap inilah yang sangat rentan terjadinya kecurangan. Pada objek penelitian  yang diteliti hingga saat ini proses penyeleksian masih dilakukan dengan menggunakan Microsoft Excel, hal ini tentu saja kurang efektif dan efisien, serta rentan akan terjadinya kesalahan bahkan kecurangan. Untuk itu, diperlukan suatu metodologi dan aplikasi yang tepat dalam melakukan penyeleksian penerima beasiswa tersebut. Decision Support System digunakan sebagai solusi untuk melakukan perekomendasian penerima beasiswa, khususnya dengan menggunakan Metode Technique  for  Order  Preference  by  Similarity  to  Ideal  Solution  (TOPSIS)  dan  Analytical  Hierarcy Process (AHP). Penggunaan kombinasi dua metode tersebut dilakukan agar memiliki tingkat akurasi yang baik jika dibandingkan  dengan menggunakan satu metode. Hasilnya,  aplikasi  decision support system dengan penerapan kombinasi metode Topsis dan AHP berhasil di rancang dan di ujicoba, serta sukses dalam perekomendasian penerima beasiswa PPA dengan menghasilkan data alternatif mahasiswa yang terurut mulai dari nilai preferensi yang paling tinggi 0.764 hingga terendah 0.189. Hasil ini dapat menjadi rekomendasi bagi pengambil keputusan dalam mengambil keputusan yang efektik, efisien dan dapat dipertanggung jawabkan.
