Abstract

In an increasingly competitive educational landscape, many institutions are seeking technologies that enhance performance. An academic information system is a system developed to manage academic data using computer technology, transforming academic processes into useful information. This research aims to design a web-based academic information system at Holistic Children Center Elementary School. Currently, the management of academic data at the school is conducted manually using books and Microsoft Excel, which is prone to data loss and inefficient in tracking academic information. The implementation of an academic information system with a centralized database method is expected to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of academic data management and support the enhancement of the school's accreditation. The research methods employed include direct observation, interviews with school officials, and literature studies to obtain relevant theories and methods. The results indicate that the designed academic information system can manage data centrally and structurally, facilitating information presentation for teachers, students, and parents. Additionally, this system can enhance the school's reputation through more organized and integrated data management and simplify the tracking and documentation of alumni.

Abstract

Esports is an official sports branch in Indonesia, as stated in the results of the KONI National Working Meeting (RAKERNA) in 2020, which declared esports to be part of the prestigious sports branch. This is also in line with the establishment of the Indonesian Esports Association (PBESI) as the governing body of electronic sports under the National Sports Committee of Indonesia (KONI). Research results show that the t-value of both variables is below 0.005, and F calculated is greater than F table (570.063 > 2.91). It can be explained that leadership has a significant positive influence on the achievement motivation of esports athletes in the provincial training center (Pelatda) of North Sumatra. Compensation also has a significant positive influence on the achievement motivation of esports athletes in the provincial training center (Pelatda) of North Sumatra partially. Furthermore, it is found that both leadership and compensation have a significant positive influence on the achievement motivation of esports athletes in the provincial training center (Pelatda) of North Sumatra simultaneously.

Abstract

Fourier series has the ability to decompose a periodic function into a collection of sine and cosine wave sums. Another way to express a function into an infinite series is with the Maclaurin series or Taylor series but both of these series require that the function must have the first derivative, the second derivative and so on of the function is defined at its expansion point and there must be no discontinuity value at that point. However, the advantage of the Fourier series is that we can decompose the function into an infinite series containing the sum of sine and cosine terms even though the function cannot be differentiated and has discontinuity at some points. The Fourier series equation of an analytical function is obtained by first finding the values ​​of the Fourier coefficients using analytical integrals. In the case of functions formed from numerical data that are assumed to have a periodic pattern, the Fourier series formula that uses analytical integrals to find its Fourier coefficients can no longer be used so that the numerical approach using the Trapezium method is an alternative that allows us to find the Fourier series equation for a periodic function expressed numerically. We use 12 points as the basis for the calculation in the Trapezium method to approximate the Fourier series numerically. This paper presents a numerical approach to solve the problem.

Abstract

In the UI Greenmetric assessment, transportation is one of the six categories that are required for a green campus, and one of the indicators is the pedestrian path on campus (TR8). In the transportation category, Medan State Polytechnic obtained a score of 725 or 40.3% of the total maximum value of the transportation category. The nonoptimal score obtained is due to the pedestrian path on campus indicator (TR8) obtaining one point with the availability of pedestrian. The addition of scores is made by pedestrian paths connected to all buildings designed for safety and convenience and in some parts provided with disabled-friendly features. It’s very important to have a pedestrian arrangement, to make Medan State Polytechnic become an environmentally friendly campus, which is the purpose of this research. The arrangement is making a pedestrian path layout that connects to the entire area of the Medan State Polytechnic Building and calculating the minimum width requirements of the pedestrian path, then making a pedestrian path layout. Pedestrian flow surveys were conducted on 5 pedestrians and 2 hallways that were considered representative of the pedestrian paths that available at Medan State Polytechnic. The results of calculations and adjusted by the provisions of the Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing 2023 on Pedestrian Technical Planning, the pedestrian path width requirement is 185 cm.

Abstract

This study analyzes the voting behavior of Chinese people in the 2024 Presidential Election in Sei Rengas I Village. The main focus is to understand the socio-political dynamics of minority ethnic groups in the context of Indonesian democracy, especially related to political participation and the influence of cultural values in political decision-making. Using qualitative descriptive methods, data were collected through in-depth interviews and documentation studies of the local Chinese community. Based on the theory of voting behavior that includes sociological, psychological, and rational approaches, the results of the study show the dominance of a combination of sociological and rational approaches. Sociologically, voting behavior is strongly influenced by family and community factors. In the rational approach, economic factors are the main consideration, where voters make rational calculations regarding the candidate's ability to overcome economic challenges. Chinese voters show a tendency to be increasingly intelligent and selective in determining their choice of president, considering the economic programs offered. The study also reveals an increase in political awareness among the Chinese community which encourages more active participation in the democratic process, potentially creating a more inclusive political environment and contributing to the country's economic stability.
