Judul: Pengukuran Efektivitas Small Group Activites dalam Meningkatkan Produktivitas Kerja Karyawan di PT X
Abstrak: Measurement of the Small Group Activities (SGA) toward employees productivity needs to be done to see the extent of its effectiveness. This study aimed to determine the application of the SGA, to identify the influenced factors of employee productivity, and to measure the effectiveness of SGA in improving employee productivity. The methods used in this research were literature study, observation/surveys, interview, questionnaire, relief method using Weka 3.6 software, effectiveness formulation, and sensitivity analysis. The results showed that the application of the SGA could be divided into three groups, there were management support, human resources, and the dynamics group. Variable of SGA that affected to employee productivity were the leader feedback, active supervisor, and training frequency. Based on the sensitivity analysis, 65% response rate of respondents stated that the implementation of the SGA had been effective in improving employee productivity.

Judul: Studi Produktivitas untuk Memperbaiki Efektivitas dan Efisiensi dari Implementasi Program Small Group Activities (SGA) : Kasus di PT X.
Abstrak: Small Group Activities merupakan salah satu aktivitas Kaizen dimana Continous Improvement mendorong beberapa anggota menjadi sebuah tim yang bertujuan untuk menyelesaikan suatu masalah tertentu untuk meningkatkan produktivitas dari lini produksi. Permasalahan umum berasal dari kurangnya komitmen dan partisipasi dari setiap anggota SGA dalam penerapan kegiatan SGA. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mengidentifikasi atribut yang berpengaruh terhadap kegiatan SGA serta mengukur nilai efektivitas dan efisiensi dari kegiatan SGA yang telah diterapkan di perusahaan untuk memberikan strategi perbaikan yang berkaitan menurut pengamatan dan diskusi di lapangan. Penggabungan pengukuran efektivitas dan efisiensi dilakukan untuk melihat keterkaitan antar keduanya. Pengukuran efektivitas dilakukan dengan cara mencari variabel produktivitas yang berpengaruh menggunakan metode Relief. Kemudian analisis sensitivitas menggunakan skala pengukuran Guttman. Pengukuran efisiensi dilakukan dengan menggunakan metode Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). Variabel penerapan SGA yang berpengaruh pada produktivitas yaitu kekompakkan tim dan komunikasi. Berdasarkan analisis sensitivitas, 70% responden menyatakan bahwa SGA telah efektif dilaksanakan dan hasil perhitungan efisiensi menujukkan bahwa Line-1 Okt 2018, Line-6 Nov 2018, Line-1 Des 2018, dan Line-1 Jan 2019 merupakan unit keputusan terbaik. Strategi terbaik untuk meningkatkan nilai efektivitas dan efisiensi dengan memperbaiki kekompakan tim dan komunikasi antar karyawan.

Judul: Posisi Filogenetik Kura-Kura Carettochelys Insculpta  (Reptillia: Testudinata)
Abstrak: Carettochelys insculpta is an endemic freshwater turtle of southern Papua and northern Australia. Phylogenetic position of this turtle is remain unresolved until now. Most of the research conducted show close relationships of C. insculpta and members of Trionychidae family. However, some of the research show distance between C. insculpta and members of Trionychidae family. This research is conducted to analyze phylogenetic relationship between C. insculpta and other members of Testudinata using 12S rRNA, 16S rRNA, and both gene as markers. DNA samples were obtained from three different organisms of C. insculpta. Two species used as outgroups were Alligator mississippiensis and Iguana iguana. Phylogenetic analysis was carried out using Neighbor-Joining method with Felsenstein 1981 (F81) modeltest. A polytomy tree of Testudinata was produced by using 12S rRNA gene. However, analysis using 16S rRNA and both genes as markers confirmed that C. insculpta was located between the Chelonidae and the Trionychidae family.
