    ONLINE ACADEMIC ADMINISTRATION SYSTEM TO SUPPORT DISTANCE LEARNING AT FACULTY OF COMPUTER SCIENCE UNIVERSITY OF INDONESIA Harry B. Santoso Faculty of Computer Science, University of Indonesia Depok, West Java Indonesia [email protected] Zainal A. Hasibuan Faculty of Computer Science, University of Indonesia Depok, West Java Indonesia [email protected] ABSTRACT Faculty of Computer Science (Fasilkom), University of Indonesia (UI) develops Web Based Distance Learning Systems for Graduate Program in Information Technology as part of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) based Distance Learning. The systems are developed using Enterprise Resources Planning approach that consist of student-centered e-Learning system, Digital Library and Online Academic Administration System. The latter manages online administration processes in academic activities such as: transcript, online registration, academic calendar, syllabus, news, and file management. This paper elaborates the on going development of Online Academic Administration System as a sub-system to support the Distance Learning at Fasilkom UI. KEYWORDS Distance Learning, student-centered e-Learning, online academic administration, enterprise resource planning. 1. INTRODUCTION Distance learning is often defined as flexible and open. Flexible means that learning options can be adjusted for both current and future learning needs and provides for the learner at any time, any place that suitable to his or her needs. On the other hand, open constitutes the removal of academic restrictions and privileges- that is, the elimination or reduction of the barriers between areas of knowledge, careers, institutions, the increasing and enriching of useful activities and experiences to complement the academic educational purposes [1]. Very often, the existing Distance Learning System offers services (such as courses) through internet but lack of other supporting systems such as online academic administration, electronic library materials and learning environment.

  • The Faculty-Administrator Relationship: Partners in Prospective Governance?
    Scholar-Practitioner Quarterly 53 The Faculty-Administrator Relationship: Partners in Prospective Governance? Marietta Del Favero, Louisiana State University Nathaniel Bray, The University of Alabama Abstract In this article the authors examine characterizations of faculty-administrator relationships, in particular as related to shared governance. Two primary perspec- tives guided the study. The first perspective focused on the fragile nature of shared governance, characterized by a lack of harmony and mistrust. The second perspec- tive focused on the root of faculty-administrator tension as both cultural and structural in nature. The study illuminates problems associated with shared gover- nance, attributed primarily to the conflicting cultures within which faculty and administrators work. As well, the authors articulate a three dimentional frame including holistic descriptions, participant perceptions, and participant behaviors, which characterize the dynamics of faculty-administrator relationships. Disposi- tional contexts associated with these relationships are further examined. Background The faculty-administrator relationship in colleges and universities is central to the effectiveness of shared governance (Breslin, 2000; Guskin, 1996; Westmeyer, 1990). Yet, the literature on this important relationship and its implications for institutional governance is disjointed and haphazard and has yet to be taken up by scholars in a serious way. One gets a general sense from the higher education literature of a relationship that is at the very least challenging, and at the extreme is adversarial and conflict-laden. This perception, to the extent that it represents reality, is problematic given the requirements of shared governance calling for A Journal for the Scholar-Practitioner Leader Volume 3, Number 1 54 Scholar-Practitioner Quarterly “joint effort” and “inescapable interdependence” (American Association of Uni- versity Professors [AAUP], 1966).

The population chosen for study is the 2- and 4-year colleges in the Southeastern region of the United States. The specific objectives of the survey were to determine the extent and frequency with which management concepts and techniques have been adopted within 2- and 4-year colleges. Universities were excluded because of their larger orq,anizational structure and the difficulties of specifying how the Ooption of managerial concepts influences activities and functions at the college level. An effort was made to determine the extent to which managerial concepts were regarded as important in the current administration of the college, the familiarity of adninistrators and key faculty members with such concepts, and the kinds of sources of information used in the administration of the college. An effort was also made to identify conditions and factors that shaped or influenced the adoption of new techniques in academic administration.

The skill sets are as follows: • UTRGV graduates are scholars with a thirst for life-long learning and academic grit and resilience in the face of challenges. They are skilled in the use of language and quantitative knowledge and 21st century digital literacies. They are critical thinkers who are aware of the role of culture in a global world. • UTRGV graduates are civically engaged individuals who recognize their responsibility and role in their communities and the world. They invest their talents and gifts in their communities and act as global citizens and skilled leaders.

Abstract The trend of managerialism and neo-liberalism sweeping across universities demands peer- reviewed outcomes, which replace discourses of ‘service.’ Within this context I, a racialized immigrant faculty member from the global South, ventured on a journey as an Associate Director, Student Affairs. I realized that I needed to take a detour, as my commitment to service was competing with the expectation of meeting the ever-growing number of peer-reviewed outcomes. The situation reminded me of my previous experiences with the university administration around ‘service.’ Based on my subjectivities I had no choice other than to ‘comply’ with the discourse of managerialism and neo-liberalism. I gave up ‘service’ as an academic administrator to pursue research and publication. My decision raises questions about the fairness of similar compliance by other racialized, new immigrant academics. Using critical auto-ethnography, I challenge the current managerial and neo-liberal Keywords: critical auto-ethnography; neo-liberal University; managerialism in university; racialized faculty in university Critical Social Work, 2012 Vol.

  • 1 FUNCTIONAL AREA DEFINITIONS GASB Statement No. 34, Basic Financial Statements—And Management's Discussion and Analysis—F
    FUNCTIONAL AREA DEFINITIONS GASB Statement No. 34, Basic Financial Statements—and Management’s Discussion and Analysis—for State and Local Governments (SGAS 34) permits a great deal of flexibility in the reporting of expenses. Most importantly, institutions may report expenses using either functional or natural classifications. Specific functional or natural expense categories are not prescribed by GASB – rather, the National Association of College and University Business Officers (NACUBO) functional expense definitions are the industry standard. The NACUBO Accounting Principles Council (APC) has provided guidance in certain specific areas concerning the functional reporting of expenses and types of natural expense categories of expense reporting. The use of these functional categories makes for more relevant reporting in order for the University to compare business operations to other higher education organizations, and it also enhances an institution’s transparency. 0 - Instruction Instruction includes expenses for all activities that are part of a University instructional program. Expenses include both credit and noncredit courses taught to registered students for the following: • Academic, vocational, and technical instruction • Remedial and tutorial instruction not separately budgeted • Regular, special, and extension sessions • Departmental research and public service that are not separately budgeted should be included in this classification This category excludes expenses for those academic personnel whose primary activity is administration—for example, academic deans. These expenses are included in the Academic Support category. 1 – Research The research category includes all expenses for activities specifically organized to produce research, whether commissioned by an agency external to the University or separately budgeted by an organizational unit within the University. Subject to these conditions, the category includes expenses for individual and/or project research as well as that of institutes and research centers.

  • Summer 2018 Descriptions Page 1 of 14
    GSAS Fellowships in Academic Administration Summer 2018 Descriptions Page 1 of 14 Academic Planning and Administration, Columbia College – Curricular Committee Intern/Archiving Fellowship in Academic Administration Academic Planning and Administration (APA) manages the development and administration of academic curriculum, policies, and procedures for Columbia College; provides direction and support for our Core Curriculum; oversees the academic advising of our students; and assists the faculty of Columbia University in their exceptional work with our undergraduates. A key committee that Academic Planning and Administration supports is the Committee on Instruction. The Committee on Instruction (COI) is responsible for approving proposals for new majors and other academic programs, new courses, and policy changes. The COI is a joint Columbia College and School of General Studies committee. Additional committees, such as the Committee on Science Instruction, and the Committee on the Global Core, focus on particular areas of the undergraduate curriculum. We believe that a graduate student fellow would gain valuable knowledge and experience by assisting our office in support of the Committee on Instruction. Specifically, we would like the fellow to organize information pertaining to and archiving the relationships amongst several curricular committees. By uncovering the history, for example, by which the Committee on Science Instruction was formed, and the background of the Committee on Instruction’s decisions on the role of the sciences in the undergraduate curriculum, the fellow will develop an understanding of the ways that curriculum and academic policy are developed. We would ensure that the fellow would build a knowledge base about academic administration not only through the independent work of cataloguing the COI files, but also through frequent conversations with Lisa Hollibaugh and Amy Kohn, and also by shadowing Amy Kohn in her interactions with academic departments throughout Arts & Sciences.
