“…The research involved a survey of 58 universities in Jakarta. In this case, it reflects the formulated business model as a result (Meyliana, 2015;Meyliana, Hidayanto, & Budiardjo, 2015). The researchers applied the BPM model as the foundation for university blockchain.…”

In the University setting, part of management recorded all education transaction since the students register until they graduate. In this point, the transaction raises several new and crucial challenges. At a closer look, the concerns appeared due to no data integration, verification, and validation from parties both inside or outside of the university. In this respect, the data is not centralized or integrated. As this backdrop, this causes repeated data confirmation, and no one can authenticate the data validity when distributed to other parties. In this point of entry, the diploma certification forgery has become one of the significant issues in education in Indonesia. As a framework that enables the data integration, Blockchain contains verified data on every single of a transaction, so the data is trustworthy. With this in mind, this paper aims to discuss the best blockchain model for the university level. This study is qualitative-based research. As a result, McRhys model is introduced as a potential and implementable blockchain model in university in Indonesia.

“…The research indicated that in-person courses elicit higher levels of engagement than online classes (Burch, et al, 2016). Though inperson classes are the ideal design in terms of engagement, better utilization of online mediums, such as YouTube and podcasts, would likely have a positive effect of engagement as well (Meyliana, et al, 2015). Thus, the potential of improving the design of the course to increase completion rates is an interesting topic that we have continued to explore.…”

The purpose of this research is to identify ways in which MacEwan’s CDEL Navigating MyCareer Journey program can better reach students and increase enrollment and completion rates. This paper addresses these goals by looking at ways to improve the programs current marketing strategies and the features that effect its overall appeal. First, we researched fifteen scholarly articles regarding career development and student learning preferences. Next, we conducted three in-depth interviews with MacEwan students; one currently enrolled in the program and two not enrolled. After our analysis, we formulated a questionnaire aimed at solving the programs main areas of concern. A total of 126 respondents from the target group completed the survey. The research indicates that CDEL should focus its marketing efforts on posters, friends, MyMacEwan website, and Blackboard. It also showed that CDEL should focus on creating awareness through friends, parents, online forums, and professors. Our research indicates that networking skills, career/life opportunities, and developing a career mindset are the most important topics to students and that CDEL should focus on those. Our research also identified that making a comprehensive, for-credit course might be the best way to increase their completion rate. We recommend that CDEL develop these key features of the program and modify the course to make it warrant credits.

“…In the study by Meyliana et al [11], students' social media preference was analysed to increase student engagement with the university. Data was collected from 1021 students from fifty-eight Indonesian universities using questionnaires [11,12]. Entropy was used to process data and assign criteria weights for social media preference.…”

“…Using the TOPSIS (Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to the Ideal Solution) method, it was established that the implementation of social media was more dependent on information quality as opposed to service quality. However, while comprehensiveness and usefulness of information were highly essential to students, they also valued system availability, efficiency, and fulfilment as they directly impacted their expectation and active learning process [11,12].…”

Ubiquitous learning is anywhere and anytime learning using e-learning and m-learning platforms. Learning takes place regularly on mobile devices. School-based instructors and learners have capitalised on ubiquitous learning platforms in unprecedented times such as COVID-19. There has been a proliferation of social media applications for ubiquitous learning. There are a vast number of attributes of the social media applications that must be considered for it to be deemed suitable for education. Further to this, mobile and desktop accessibility criteria must be considered. The aim of this research study was to determine the high impacting and most pertinent criteria to evaluate social media applications for school-based ubiquitous learning. Data was collected from 30 experts in the field of teaching and learning who were asked to evaluate 60 criteria. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) was the method employed for the dimensionality reduction. PCA was implemented using singular value decomposition (SVD) on R-Studio. The results showed loading values from principal component one for the top 40 educational requirements and technology criteria of the 60 criteria used in the study. The implications of this research study will guide researchers in the field of Educational Data Mining (EDM) and practitioners on the most important dimensions to consider when evaluating social media applications for ubiquitous learning.
