This paper discusses a cloud technology supported methodology for the creation of university policy through mass collaboration. The ‘University Conversation’ methodology was deployed to facilitate the creation of a University Learning, Teaching and Enhancement strategy that was ultimately authored by over 200 academic staff and had direct input from over 400 students. The methodology utilises the affordances (Gibson, 1986) of cloud technology to capture a large number of simultaneous conversations and then to mediate the iterative editing of the document through a sequence of synchronous and asynchronous collaborative events. The methodology demonstrates the potential of cloud technology to open communicative pathways between the ‘significant networks’ (Torgny Roxå & Mårtensson, 2009) where learning development often takes place and institutional machinery that converts localised innovative practice into institutional policy.

Online education is no longer a peripheral phenomenon in higher education: over one-third of faculty have taught or developed an online course. As institutions of higher education expand their online education offerings, administrators need to recognize that supporting faculty through the use of incentives and through effective faculty development programs for online instruction is important to the improvement of the quality of educational programs. This quantitative study used an online survey to investigate the types and frequency of faculty development programs for online instruction at institutions with an established teaching and learning development unit (TLDU). The average TLDU offered about fifteen different types of faculty development programs, the most common being websites, technical services, printed materials, and consultation with instructional design experts.

Abstrak: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk: (1) menghasilkan media video pembelajaran rias karakter yang layak digunakan, mudah dipelajari mahasiswa dan dapat dipakai untuk pembelajaran individual, (2) mengetahui keefektivitasan media video pembelajaran rias karakter yang dikembangkan pada materi rias karakter. Penelitian pengembangan yang menggunakan model produk Borg dan Gall yang dipadu dengan model pengembangan pembelajaran Dick dan Carey. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan: (1) media video pembelajaran layak digunakan dalam pembelajaran rias karakter pada program studi pendidikan tata arias universitas negeri medan, (2) terdapat perbedaan yang signifikan antara hasil belajar mahasiswa yang dibelajarkan dengan menggunakan media video pembelajaran rias karakter dengan hasil belajar mahasiswa yang dibelajarkan dengan menggunakan media belajar buku teks. Hal ini ditunjukkan dengan hasil pengolahan data (thitung=3,285 )pada taraf signifikansi ɑ = 0,05 dengan dk 56 diperoleh (ttabel = 1,67 ), sehingga (thitung > ttabel), efektivitas penggunaan media video pembelajaran rias karakter = 80,46%. Hasil belajar kelompok mahasiswa yang dibelajarkan tanpa menggunakan media video pembelajaran rias karakter sebesar 71,72%. Dari data ini membuktikan bahwa penggunaan media video pembelajaran rias karakter lebih efektif dalam meningkatkan kompetensi dan pengetahuan mahasiswa pada pembelajaran rias karakter dari pada tanpa menggunakan media video pembelajaran. Kata Kunci: media video pembelajaran, rias karakte, pendidikan tata rias Abstract: This study aims to: (1) produce a suitable use of character makeup learning video media, easy for students to learn and can be used for individual learning, (2) to find out the effectiveness of media character makeup learning videos developed in character makeup material. Development research using the Borg and Gall product model combined with the learning development model of Dick and Carey. The results of the study showed: (1) learning video media is feasible to use in character makeup learning in the field state university education education program, (2) there are significant differences between student learning outcomes learned using the character makeup video learning media with student learning outcomes which was learned by using media learning textbooks. This is indicated by the results of processing data (tcount = 3.285) at the significance level ɑ = 0.05 with dk 56 obtained  (ttable = 1.67), so that (tcount> t table), effectiveness of using media character makeup learning videos = 80.46%. The learning outcomes of the group of students who were taught without using the character makeup learning video media amounted to 71.72%. From these data prove that the use of character makeup learning video media is more effective in increasing students' competence and knowledge in character makeup learning than without using learning video media. Keywords: learning video media, character makeup, makeup education

Math Game

Mathematics in elementary school is difficult to understand, boring, formal, theoretical, and book-based learning, which makes students tired of listening and paying attention. The purpose of this study is to create a learning prototype based on QR codes, especially mathematics learning in elementary schools. Using the QR code, students can access math games related to the course. This learning model could encourage students to learn mathematics. The research included seven steps in research and development named after Borg & Gall, such as need assessment, plan, early product development, first test, revise early product, field test and revise product. The object of the research is QR code-based learning, and the respondents are elementary school students and teachers. After analyzing data in the first and field test, researchers found the result. QR code-based learning could support children for learning mathematics.

Machine learning is an established and frequently used technique in industry and academia, but a standard process model to improve success and efficiency of machine learning applications is still missing. Project organizations and machine learning practitioners face manifold challenges and risks when developing machine learning applications and have a need for guidance to meet business expectations. This paper therefore proposes a process model for the development of machine learning applications, covering six phases from defining the scope to maintaining the deployed machine learning application. Business and data understanding are executed simultaneously in the first phase, as both have considerable impact on the feasibility of the project. The next phases are comprised of data preparation, modeling, evaluation, and deployment. Special focus is applied to the last phase, as a model running in changing real-time environments requires close monitoring and maintenance to reduce the risk of performance degradation over time. With each task of the process, this work proposes quality assurance methodology that is suitable to address challenges in machine learning development that are identified in the form of risks. The methodology is drawn from practical experience and scientific literature, and has proven to be general and stable. The process model expands on CRISP-DM, a data mining process model that enjoys strong industry support, but fails to address machine learning specific tasks. The presented work proposes an industry- and application-neutral process model tailored for machine learning applications with a focus on technical tasks for quality assurance.
