Higher education faces major challenges in the interruption era. Universities in the Indonesian Ministry of Science, Technology and Higher Education are encouraged to revive the curriculum in accordance with the Indonesian National Qualifications Framework (INQF). However, this is considered to be lacking. Every argument that comes from recovery must be changed. Therefore, it is necessary to evaluate and reconstruct the course. Reconstruction is an improvement on a course based on the need to review its relevance to everyday needs. The purpose of this study is to evaluate and reconstruct the themes of environmental physics. Based on the assessment of PGRI Semarang University Physics Environmental Physics courses, it is concluded that learning and learning methods need to be modified by adapting requirements. The result of the reconstruction of environmental physics is the integration of ethane technology into teaching materials and methods. This integration will help students better understand the physical concepts of companies and their impact on the environment

THE RELEVANCY BETWEEN LEARNING MATERIALS AND METHODS IN ENTREPRENEURSHIP LEARNING PROCESS IN HIGHER EDUCATION.   Sulastri Management, Faculty of Economics, UniversitasSriwijaya   ZakariaWahab Management, Faculty of Economics, UniversitasSriwijaya   VieronicaVarbiSununianti, S.Sos, M.Si Sociology, Faculty of Social Sciences and Politics, UniverstiasSriwijaya   ABSTRACT   Entrepreneurship program has become a national policy that is believed to be a tool to reduce unemployment and poverty. Therefore, entrepreneurship has become a national curriculum in almost every study program and has incorporated entrepreneurship module as one of the subjects in achieving learning outcome and graduate profile. The terms in entrepreneurship are also growing, with the aim of establishing a social construction towards the understanding of entrepreneurship as a science, which contains elements of knowledge, skills and attitudes. Besides, entrepreneurship construct that need to be built in the learning process is very complex and involves multiple disciplines, so it is important to study empirically the relevancy between learning materials and methods in entrepreneurship learning process in higher education. This study aims to examine whether there are differences in the learning materials and methods in entrepreneurial learning at higher education level. The research is carried out in several public and private universities with a sample of 304 students from some courses both for the field of sciences and social studies that have entrepreneurship as one of their taught modules. It can be concluded that entrepreneurial learning materials can be grouped in the aspect of (1) knowledge; (2) skills and (3) attitude. In each aspect, the learning materials are collected and grouped and observed on itslearning methodology. The results by using Anova testing show that there are differences in some teaching materials and learning methods in the same faculty or inter- faculty at several universities. Furthermore, in the cognitive construction of the entrepreneurship metaphor (innovation, creative, proactive and risk -taking), it is found that it has not been delivered usingrelevant learning methods, as well as learning models of personal development.   Keywords : Teaching materials , Methods of learning , Entrepreneurship   Relevansi Materi dan Metode Dalam Proses Pembelajaran Kewirausahaan PadaTingkat  Pendidikan Tinggi   Sulastri Program StudiManajemenFakultasEkonomiUniversitasSriwijaya Email : [email protected]   ZakariaWahab Program StudiManajemenFakultasEkonomiUniversitasSriwijaya & VieronicaVarbiSununianti, S.Sos, M.Si JurusanSosiologi, FISIP, UniversitasSriwijaya   RINGKASAN Program kewirausahaan telah menjadi kebijakan nasional yang diyakini sebagai alat untuk mengurangi tingkat pengangguran dan kemiskinan.

Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics student success is an important topic in higher education research. Recently, the use of data analytics in higher education administration has gain popularity. However, very few studies have examined how data analytics may influence Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics student success. This study took the first step to investigate the influence of using predictive analytics on academic advising in engineering majors. Specifically, we examined the effects of predictive analytics-informed academic advising among undeclared first-year engineering student with regard to changing a major and selecting a program of study. We utilized the propensity score matching technique to compare students who received predictive analytics-informed advising with those who did not. Results indicated that students who received predictive analytics-informed advising were more likely to change a major than their counterparts. No significant effects was detected regarding selecting a program of study. Implications of the findings for policy, practice, and future research were discussed.
