Model inklusi keuangan pada umkm berbasis pedesaan

Abstract: In general, regional economy is supported by micro, small and medium enterprises (SMEs). They have important role in promoting economic growth in Indonesia. In Indonesia, there are various types of SMEs that are spreadout throughout the region, one of which is batik SMEs. Klaten regency has the largest number of Batik SMEs in Central Java province. Commonly, the issue of SMEs in general is the problem of capital. To overcome this issue, there is a model named “Financial Inclusion” to encourage the financial system to be accessible by society. The purpose of this study is to identify the application of financial inclusion in rural-based batik SMEs in Klaten regency and analyze its strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and obstacles in the implementation of financial inclusion in the SME. Data analysis technique used is descriptive analysis and SWOT analysis. The results revealed that the form of the model of financial inclusion for SMEs Batik in Klaten regency is financial institutions in terms of capital. This is in the form of low interest loans and KUR (Business Credit fo Society). Then, there is a provision of assistance from financial institutions. In terms of marketing, it is necessary for SMEs in having intensive assistance, participating in batik exhibition and advertisement. Having applied this model, it is expected that SMEs Batik Klaten will be well-improved. Perekonomian daerah pada umumnya ditopang oleh Usaha Mikro Kecil dan Menengah (UMKM). Perannya sangat vital dalam meningkatkan pertumbuhan ekonomi di Indonesia. Di Indonesia terdapat berbagai jenis UMKM yang tersebar diseluruh wilayah, salah satunya adalah UMKM batik. Kabupaten Klaten memiki jumlah UMKM batik terbanyak di provinsi Jawa Tengah. Persoalan UMKM pada umumnya adalah masalah permodalan. Untuk mengatasinya terdapat satu model bernama “Inklusi Keuangan” yang dapat mendorong sistem keuangan agar dapat diakses seluruh lapisan masyarakat. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mengidentifikasi penerapan inklusi keuangan pada UMKM batik berbasis perdesaan di Kabupaten Klaten serta menganalisis kekuatan, kelemahan, peluang, dan hambatan dalam penerapan inklusi keuangan pada UMKM tersebut. Teknik analisis data yang digunakan adalah analisis deskriptif dan analisis SWOT. Hasil yang diperoleh yaitu model inklusi keuangan untuk UMKM Batik di Kabupaten Klaten yaitu masuknya lembaga keuangan dalam segi permodalan yaitu berbentuk kredit bunga rendah dan KUR, yang selanjutnya dilakukan pendampingan dari lembaga keuangan. Sedangkan dari segi pemasaran, diperlukan adanya pendampingan intensif, pengikutsertaan pameran batik serta advertisement. Dengan model tersebut, diharapkan akan terbentuk UMKM Batik Klaten yang berkualitas.

Teaching and Learning Mathematics around the City Supported by the Use of Digital Technology

Abstract: This study aims to explore the potential use of digital technology for supporting outdoor mathematics teaching and learning process. A study with explorative research approach were conducted in Indonesia. A portal and a mobile app for math trail program was created and several math trail tasks were designed around the city and uploaded into a system by the teachers. Then students run the activity by the help of mobile app to find and solve mathematical modelling tasks around the city. Data were gathered by means of participatory observation, interviews, questionnaires, and worksheets. The findings indicate that a meaningful digital technology-supported mathematical outdoor activity was successfully designed and implemented. The use of digital technology has the potential to support teachers in facilitating outdoor mathematics teaching and learning process. Students gained mathematical experiences and their performance in mathematics have improved. Further studies are essential for project development and implementation in other cities with different situation and different aspects of study.

A new approach for determining fuzzy chromatic number of fuzzy graph

Abstract: A fuzzy graph referred in this paper is a graph with crisp vertex set and fuzzy edge set. The most important issue in the coloring problem of fuzzy graph is to construct a method for finding the chromatic number of fuzzy graph. Most of the methods that many researchers had been done still result crisp chromatic number. In this paper, we propose a new approach to determine fuzzy chromatic set of fuzzy graph. In our proposed method, the fuzzy chromatic set of fuzzy graph is constructed through its δ-chromatic number. Further, we investigate some properties of the fuzzy chromatic set of fuzzy graph. We show that fuzzy chromatic set of fuzzy graph is a discrete fuzzy number and then it is called by fuzzy chromatic number. To the best of our knowledge, no one has determined fuzzy chromatic number of fuzzy graph through its δ-chromatic number before now. Finally, a fuzzy chromatic algorithm based on the new approach is proposed.

Reliabilitas instrumen penelitian pendidikan

Abstract: Pada penelitian pendidikan adanya data yang konsisten adalah suatu keharusan dalam rangka untuk mendapatkan kesimpulan penelitian yang tepat. Untuk itu peneliti perlu melakukan uji reliabilitas terhadap instrumen yang digunakan. Ada tiga cara untuk mengestimasi koefisien reliabilitas yaitu: metode tes ulang ( test- retest ), metode bentuk parallel ( parallel forms ), dan metode konsistensi internal ( internal consistency ). Di antara metode-metode tersebut, metode konsistensi internal ( internal consistency ) adalah yang paling banyak digunakan. Hal ini dikarenakan pengujiannya tidak perlu pengulangan, sehingga masalah-masalah yang timbul pada saat pengulangan dapat dihindari. Untuk penerimaan reliabilitas adalah sangat tergantung peneliti dalam menggunakan kriteria yang digunakan. Tentunya semakin besar koefisien reliabilitas yang digunakan akan semakin konsisten instrumen tersebut.
