“…The concern raised by AC2 about the system's deficiency, which leads it to delete learners' information bears testimony to a similar finding as documented in a study by Maremi et al (2020).…”

“…Kuriakose (2014) found that since updates and amendments to the system can only occur at a particular time of the year, the system lacks data capturing flexibility and is not consistent with high quality data management standards. Maremi et al (2020) established that the system tends to delete the profile information of learners who are archived during the year. In the Free State Province, Murithi and Masinde (2016) ascertained that many schools do not have enough computers to enable all members of staff to actively involve themselves in the capturing of data on the system.…”

The undeniable impact of implementing school management systems on the efficiency of school administration in the Global South is evident. Nevertheless, the implementation of school management systems can provide significant challenges, particularly in educational settings with little resources, such as township schools. This qualitative study examined the impediments to the optimal efficiency of SA-SAMS in three township schools located in the Nkangala Education District, Mpumalanga Province, South Africa. The study was based on the people, processes, and technology framework (PPTF). A deliberate sampling technique was employed to choose a sample of five administrative clerks and three principals. The results indicated that administrative clerks identified several obstacles: 1) unreliable internet connectivity; 2) issues related to the delayed release of the assessment patch and changes to its structure during the school term; 3) glitches in learner admissions, leading to the deletion of profiles of learners admitted to schools in the middle of the year, exacerbated by the system's inability to smoothly process admissions of foreign learners; 4) lack of onsite technicians to provide technical support, necessitating schools to allocate funds designated for academic and operational programmes to hire private technicians. Meanwhile, principals identified two main issues: 5) limited acceptance among teachers and 6) the inadequacy of provincial SA-SAMS helpdesk workers, whose skills frequently failed to offer necessary technical assistance when system issues developed. The study suggested ensuring dependable internet access for schools with limited resources, promptly releasing the patch, maintaining clear and timely communication regarding patch format changes, providing training to teachers on SA-SAMS, offering on-site technical support to schools, and employing competent SA-SAMS provincial helpdesk personnel.

“…Pragmatic and dynamic interoperability is important in DEM due to the dynamic determination and execution of operations and the unpredictability of the risks that will occur. For these levels, OIAM, EIMM and LCIM are important in terms of providing detailed information and approach (Jabin et al, 2019;Maremi et al, 2020;EIMM, 2006). It is of vital importance to ensure full operational interoperability, especially in the response phase, for the AADY.…”

Due to their complex nature, disasters and emergencies require a data-intensive management system in which many actors from different sectors participate and simultaneous processes are managed. Due to this complexity, there are problems in managing and sharing process services and geographic data effectively. The key to solving these problems is the introduction of a complete interoperability model. In this context, interoperability models based on existing international standards are analyzed in this study. FEI and EIF models are taken as basis in terms of disaster and emergency management interoperability requirements. Accordingly, the interoperability reference model was created in legal, organizational, semantic and technical frameworks to meet the interoperability levels. This general framework model has been evaluated in the service and data layers that need to be fully defined in disaster and emergency management phases, and a basic model including interoperability solutions for the service and data model has been created.

“…(Mulyasa, 2004) mempunyai arti bahwa tujuan manajemen siswa merupakan Melaksanakan berbagai kegiatan di sektor kesiswaan dengan tujuan agar pembelajaran di sekolah berjalan dengan baik, teratur, serta lancar, serta mencapai tujuan pendidikan yang telah ditetapkan oleh sekolah. Untuk mencapai tujuan tersebut, bidang administrasi kemahasiswaan setidaknya harus mempertimbangkan tiga upaya besar, yaitu rekrutmen peserta didik baru, program peningkatan pencapaian akademik, serta pembinaan dan kedisiplinan (Ahmetbašić, 2021;Bhakti, 2019;Chen, 2021;Gustafsson, 2018;Mahfouz, 2018;Maremi, 2020;Rather, 2023;Salem, 2019;Vitores, 2020;Zhao, 2018).…”

The focus of this research is to uncover the implementation of online student registration management at SMA Negeri 1 Kedamean when applying the online PPDB system. This study adopts a qualitative method with the aim of gaining a comprehensive understanding of the data encountered or discovered by the researcher. The research findings reveal that in assessing the qualifications of potential new students at SMA Negeri 1 Kedamean, a student database is created and managed to facilitate the selection and admission process of students at SMA Negeri 1 Kedamean. The school's policy involves data analysis, using technology to analyze admission data such as student profiles, school preferences, and demographic data to improve the selection process. Based on technical guidance from the provincial government governing the implementation of online PPDB at SMA Negeri 1 Kedamean, it is decided that the implementation of online PPDB will take place in a meeting room selected as the venue for the online PPDB. The Online PPDB Body and Budget are sourced from the school's BOS fund, and in the New Student Admission System for the Online PPDB Academic Year 2023/2024, there are four pathways: Affirmation, Achievement, Special Selection, and Academic Path in the ongoing Online PPDB. Direct connections to the databases of the Social and Educational Services of the Ministry of Religion and KONI prevent fraud during the implementation of the Online PPDB. The process of admitting new students through online PPDB is now more transparent, making it easier for students and organizers to verify actual data and facilitating the accountability of the organizers because all data is created using this system.
