Online-Based Academic Supervision System in 3T Regions

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to develop an Online-Based Academic Supervision System to facilitate the academic supervision process which is constrained in the 3T area (frontier, outermost and least developed regions). The development process uses the Borg and Gall development model. The academic supervision system was developed based on the need for the academic supervision process in the 3T area. The process begins with field research related to the academic supervision process in the 3T area, and the result is that the academic supervision process is constrained by distance, cost and access to the location. In addition, the number of school supervisors is still less than the number of schools that must be supervised. Based on the results of the preliminary research, a plan was made to create an academic supervision system that could provide solutions to the limitations of distance, cost, access and the number of school supervisors. The planning stage resulted in an online-based academic supervision system, thus making it easier for access to the academic support process. In addition, the online-based academic supervision system has additional menus to complement the academic supervision process such as academic supervision evaluations, teacher needs sheets and consultations to school supervisors and school principals.
