The rapid growth of technology and related fields has led to creation in academia to match the expansion demand for IT professionals. One of the current majors that attract attention in industry is cybersecurity. There is a great need for individuals who are skilled in cybersecurity to protect IT infrastructure. Coaching a security-focused workforce has become the target of government agents, industry, and academic institutions. As research and academic faculties respond to this growing demand, evolving curriculum and methodologies for teaching cybersecurity graduates still need to be formed comprehensively. There have been few researches to define and assess the student outcomes in cybersecurity. This paper presents a step forward by developing Student Learning Outcomes (SLOs) and the desired assessment method to measure those outcomes. This research contributes to academia and training institution by defining the SLOs and suggests preferable assessment methods in cybersecurity. This initial research is based on a qualitative study of academician evaluation of cybersecurity courses. The paper presents the result of interviews along with discussions of ongoing and future suggestions.

Student outcomes are statements that describe the attributes; skills and abilities that students should have and be able to do by the time of graduation. For quality assurance evaluation, these outcomes must be assessed. In order to evaluate the level to which an outcome is met, it is necessary to select some courses where the outcome is covered. Course objectives must be linked to the student outcomes and define in terms of measurable performance indicators. Using just two outcomes as an example, this paper presents a systematic approach to assess directly and indirectly student learning outcomes in Mathematics through differential equation course, by define appropriate measurable performance indicators, build up assessment rubrics, collect and analyze data for possible recommendations and improvement.

Education is guidance carried out by educators consciously on the physical and spiritual development of students as an effort to mature a person through guidance and training. Education in Indonesia continues to grow in line with the times. So that a teacher is required to provide material not only using the lecture method but using other learning methods. The purpose of this study is to find out about improving student learning outcomes by using a demonstration learning method based on learning videos. With the use of student learning videos it is easier to understand the material being taught so that it can link material taught with natural phenomena. In addition students do not feel bored when they are in class and have a high curiosity so students actively ask in class. The use of video learning also improves student learning outcomes.   Kata Kunci: demonstration method, learning achievement and learning video

This research is motivated by the low activity and learning outcomes of students in learning. Learning is still teacher centered. Student do activities outside of learning. We need a model to motivate student in learning. The model can be used is Snowball Throwing.The purpose of writing this article is to  look at the correlation of the application of the Snowball Throwing model to student outcomes. This research methode by reviewing journal uses 5 journal with ISSN. Dewi's research (2015) states that the Snowball Throwing model assisted by interactive multimedia has an effect on student learning outcomes. Handayani's research (2017) states that the Snowball Throwing model has an influence on student learning outcomes. Fitri's research (2017) states that the Snowball Throwing model with word square media has a positive influence on the activities and learning outcomes of students. Najla (2017) and Purba (2020) state that there are differences in learning outcomes between classes that use Snowball Throwing and those that don't. Thus it shows the Snowball Throwing model has a correlation with the learning outcomes of students.

The purpose of this study is to determine an increasement in student learning outcomes in mathematics learning using the Self-Assessment method in class XI MIPA 2 students, totaling 36 students in Linear Program material at SMA Negeri I Banyumas. This research is a Classroom Action Research (CAR) which consists of four steps in the cycle, namely Planning, Action, Observing, and Reflecting. Data collection and analysis techniques were analyzed using descriptive statistics. The test result obtained in the first cycle obtained a class average of 67.05 and a percentage of completeness of 50%. From the Self-Assessment sheet, it is known that students' difficulties are determining the area of completion and modeling the problem into a linear program, so it is necessary to do cycle II to improve student learning outcomes. From the test results in cycle II, it was found that the class average increased to 75.56. Students' learning completeness increased from previously only 50% of students who completed to 70%. The findings of student difficulties written on the Self-Assessment sheet are still dominated by modeling the problem and its objective function. The conclusion from this research is that the implementation of the Self-Assessment method shows an increase in student learning outcomes.

Emergencies can create situations where traditional face-to-face courses need to quickly be transferred to be online. When transitioning, it is easy to focus on simply moving content into an online learning management system quickly and training instructors and students in the basics of how to use the platform in a pared-down learning structure. However, this article argues that approaching emergency course redesign with accessibility in mind at the start of the transition will ensure that more students, including students with disabilities, succeed in the online learning environment. This also helps ensure the course is designed for optimal student learning outcomes.
