PENDAMPINGAN DARING SUPERVISI AKADEMIK KEPALA MADRASAH DI MASA PANDEMI COVID-19

This action research aims to improve the academic supervision competency of madrasa principals through technical guidance during the Covid-19 pandemic. The research was carried out in January s.d. May 2021. The Action Research involved four heads of Madrasah Aliyah in Central Jakarta as participants, researchers as mentors, and three observers. Research data were collected through observation, interviews, tests, filling out questionnaires, and document assessment. The research data were analyzed through data reduction, data presentation, and verification, accompanied by a description of quantitative data on test results, process assessment, and document assessment. Actions are carried out in two cycles. The results of observations showed an increase in online mentoring participation from 75% in the first cycle to 87.5% in the second cycle; there was an increase in the ability of madrasah principals in preparing academic supervision from 72% in the first cycle to 92.5% in the second cycle; the increase in knowledge about academic supervision increased from 73.25 before the action to 83 after the action, and improvement in the ability of the head of madrasah to prepare reports on academic supervision reached a score of 92.5%% at the end of the activity. Based on this research, it can be concluded that online technical guidance during the Covid-19 pandemic can improve the ability of madrasa principals to carry out academic supervision. Abstrak Penelitian Tindakan ini bertujuan meningkatkan kemampuan kepala madrasah melaksanakan supervisi akademik pada masa pandemi Covid-19 melalui pendampingan daring. Penelitian dilaksanakan pada bulan Januari s.d. Mei 2021. Penelitian Tindakan melibatkan empat kepala Madrasah Aliyah di Kota Jakarta Pusat sebagai peserta pendampingan, peneliti sebagai pendamping, dan tiga observer. Data penelitian dikumpulkan melalui observasi, wawancara, tes, pengisian kuesioner, serta penilaian dokumen. Data penelitian dianalisis melalui reduksi data, penyajian data, dan verifikasi, dilengkapi deskripsi data kuantitatif hasil tes, penilaian proses, dan penilaian dokumen. Tindakan dalam bentuk pendampingan daring dilaksanakan dalam dua siklus. Hasil observasi menunjukkan peningkatan pertisipasi pendampingan daring dari 75% pada siklus-I menjadi 87,5% pada siklus-II; terjadi peningkatan kemampuan kepala madrasah dalam menyusun program supervisi akademik dari 72% pada siklus-I menjadi 92,5% pada siklus-II; kemampuan kepala madrasah menyusun laporan supervisi akademik mencapai skor 92,5%% di akhir kegiatan, dan peningkatan pengetahuan tentang supervisi akademik meningkat dari 73,25 sebelum tindakan menjadi 83 setelah tindakan. Berdasarkan penelitian ini dapat disimpulkan bahwa pendampingan daring pada masa pandemi Covid-19 dapa meningkatkan kemampuan kepala madrasah dalam melaksanakan supervisi akademik.

Modelling of Thermal Quantities for Quick Process Assessment and Process Capability Space Refinement at an Early Design Phase During Laser Welding

This research aims at understanding the impact of welding process parameters and beam oscillation on the weld thermal cycle during laser welding. A three-dimensional heat transfer model is developed to simulate the welding process, based on the finite element (FE) method. The calculated thermal cycle and weld morphology are in good agreement with experimental results from literature. By utilizing the developed heat transfer model, the effect of welding process parameters such as heat source power, welding speed, radius of oscillation, and frequency of oscillation on the intermediate performance indicators (IPIs) such as peak temperature, heat-affected zone volume (HAZ), and cooling rate is quantified. Parametric contour maps for peak temperature, HAZ volume, and cooling rate are developed for the estimation of the process capability space. An integrated approach for rapid process assessment, process capability space refinement, based on IPIs is proposed. The process capability space will guide the identification of the initial welding process parameters window and help in reducing the number of experiments required by refining the feasible region of process parameters based on the interactions with the IPIs. Here, the peak temperature indicates the mode of welding performed while the HAZ volume and cooling rate are weld quality indicators. The regression relationship between the welding process parameters and the IPIs is established for quick estimation of IPIs to replace time-consuming numerical simulations. The proposed approach provides a unique ability to simulate the laser welding process and provides a robust range of process parameters.

COURSE REVIEW HORAY STRATEGY IN IMPROVING RESULTS OF LEARNING AQIDAH AKHLAK

The low learning outcomes of 3 MI An-Nur Plus Junwangi students on Aqidah Akhlaq subjects. The reason is that the learning methods are relatively the same. The main purpose of this research is to find out the improvement in learning outcomes of Aqidah subjects by taking the given action, namely the Course Review Horay strategy in two cycles (cycles I and II). Data collection techniques used are interviews, observation, learning outcomes tests, process assessment, and documentation. The results showed that the first cycle of student learning completeness reached 45.45% with an average grade of 77.55. There was an increase in the second cycle with the completeness of student learning outcomes reaching 95.45% (very good category) with an average grade of 90.75.
