Judul: Perancangan Sistem Asesmen Literasi Informasi
Abstrak: Literasi informasi merupakan keterampilan yang diperlukan dalam pembelajaran abad 21. Menyadari hal ini, beberapa pustakawan sekolah mulai menerapkan program literasi informasi di perpustakaan sekolahnya. Penerapan program literasi informasi juga telah dijadikan standar perpustakaan sekolah oleh Perpustakaan Nasional RI. Sebagaimana halnya sebuah program kerja, program literasi informasi perlu dievaluasi. Salah satu metode untuk mengevaluasi penerapan program literasi informasi di perpustakaan sekolah adalah melalui asesmen kompetensi literasi informasi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menyusun standar literasi informasi untuk siswa sekolah di Indonesia dan merancang sistem asesmen literasi informasi. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian adalah teknik Delphi. Pengumpulan data dilakukan melaui kuesioner dengan dua iterasi. Panelis penelitian ini terdiri dari 9 orang ahli yang merupakan pustakawan sekolah sebanyak 3 orang, guru/dosen sebanyak 2 orang dan peneliti literasi informasi sebanyak 4 orang. Penelitian ini berhasil merumuskan standar literasi informasi yang terdiri dari 6 standar, yaitu perumusan kebutuhan informasi, akses terhadap informasi, pengorganisasian informasi, etika penggunaan informasi, penyampaian informasi dan kompentensi Teknologi Informasi dan Komunikasi dengan 38 indikator. Standar dan indikator ini kemudian dijadikan dasar untuk menyusun butir asesmen literasi informasi. Butir asesmen terdiri dari 25 soal yang dikelompokkan dalam 5 kategori, yaitu perumusan kebutuhan informasi, akses informasi, organisasi informasi, etika penggunaan informasi dan kompetensi penyampaian informasi serta penggunaan Teknologi Inormasi dan Komunikasi. Perancangan sistem asesmen literasi informasi mengacu pada kebutuhan fungsi utama sistem yaitu untuk melakukan asesmen atas kompetensi literasi informasi siswa. Untuk memenuhi kebutuhan tersebut diperlukan beberapa fungsi sistem, yaitu 1) login, 2) kelola user, 3) kelola butir asesmen, 4) kelola siswa, 5) kelola sesi asesmen, 6) pengolahan hasil asesmen dan 8) laporan hasil asesmen. Perancangan sistem dilakukan sampai pada tahap perancangan logis dengan membuat model yang terdiri dari Diagram Alir Proses Asesmen Literasi Informasi, Diagram Alur Data dan Entity-Relationship Diagram.

Abstrak: Information Literacy (IL) Program is a library program that aims to improve the ability of library users to recognize when information is needed and have the ability to locate, evaluate, and use effectively the needed information. Information literacy learning is essential to be taught and applied in education from the beginning of the school so that students are able to find and organize information effectively and efficiently particularly regard to the school assignment and learning process. At present, various educational institutions began to implement online learning model to improve the quality of teaching and research quality. Due to the advancement of information technology, the information literacy program should be adjusted with the needs of library users. The purpose of this study was to design web-based information literacy learning for school library. This research conducted through several stages which are: identifying the needs of web-based IL, designing web-based IL, determining the model and the contents of a web-based IL tutorial, creating a prototype webbased IL, testing, and usage tutorial prototype IL. The results showed that 77% of respondents stated the need of web-based learning IL. The prototype of web-based learning IL is consisted of six main units using combination of the Big6 Skills model and 7 Concept of Information Literacy by Shapiro and Hughes. The main sixth units are Library Values, Literacy Resource, Literacy Research, Organization of Information, Critical Literacy and Publishing Literacy. In testing phase the prototype of IL web-based worked properly. After passing the test, the prototype of IL web-based could be used through hyperlink in web school network. This prototype web-based information literacy is expected to support the information literacy learning in a holistic approach.

Judul: Thermal Characteristics and Dynamics of Tropical Cyclone over Western North Pacific Ocean: A Case Study of Typhoon Songda (Chedeng) 2011
Abstrak: The frequent occasion of Tropical Cyclone (TC) over Western North Pacific (WNP) Ocean lies from 10˚N to 26˚N and 121˚E to 170˚E. Sources of TC development come from warm ocean temperature where latent heat is released during condensation processes and subsequently concentrated in the boundary layer. Relative humidity at 850-700 hPa is responsible to produce the most intense storm. Meanwhile, weak vertical wind shear between 850-200 hPa is one of the dynamical factors that lead to the development of TC. Pressure level of 850-200 hPa is chosen to minimize the thermodynamic effect in the lower troposphere. Typhoon Songda (Chedeng in the Philippines) or TSC lasted from May 18th to 30th, 2011 and strengthened into powerful Super Typhoon stage between May 24th and 27th. Long curving track and the exhibition of all sequences of TC life cycle, TSC is then considered as an ideal case of TC. The objective of the study with case of TSC is to investigate the role of thermal characteristics and dynamics on TC intensity. The research is carried out by using Advanced Research of Weather Research and Forecasting model (WRF ARW model) version 3.3. Two domains are employed in the model. The first domain situate from 02˚N to 40˚N and 118˚E to 149˚E and cover spatial resolution () of 33.1 km. The second domain situate from 09˚N to 27˚N and 119˚E to 132˚E with of 11 km. Timestep of the model () is 120 seconds. The model is supported by the following physical parameterization, i.e., Yonsei University Scheme (YSU) in the boundary layer, Kain-Fritsch scheme (KF) in the cumulus, and WRF Single-Moment 3-class scheme in the microphysics. Initial meteorological condition prior to the formation of the cyclone is generated using WRF ARW standard-release model. Sensitivity of the model output is obtained from a selected single-parameter change scenarios, namely, 10 % to 20 % decrease and increase of wind shear initial data at 850-200 hPa, and by 10 % to 20 % decrease of relative humidity initial data at 850-700 hPa. The result showed that the negative correlations between wind shear and intensity are found in wind shear scenarios. Wind shears of 10 ms-1 which lead to strengthening of the wind intensity in the early period of Typhoon development are found in wind shear scenarios. The effect of wind shear changes on wind intensity is statistically significant in the 20 % wind shear scenarios. During mature stage, weak wind intensity occurred when wind shear increase as given in the WRF standard-release and the 20 % decreasing scenario. Different situation is found in the 20 % increasing scenario where wind shear tend to weak and lead to strong wind intensity at this stage. Meanwhile, the reduction of moisture supply at 850-700 hPa resulting from 20 % decreasing relative humidity play a major role in the weakening of wind intensity and reduces mechanical energy of the cycle process as much as 300 J kg-1.
