2.4. Teaching and Learning Strategy
Every course is accompanied by Learning Program Outlines (GBPP) and a
plan for teaching and learning activities (SAP). It consists of identity and description
of the course, instructional analysis, course learning objectives, teaching and
learning methods, outlines of course content, course schedule, assignments, list of
supporting literatures, evaluation and evaluation criteria. GBPP and SAP are
informed to the students at the beginning of every course.
Most of courses use lecturing methods in front of a class followed by
questions and answers. Besides lecturing method, Student Centered Learning (SCL)
is increasingly adopted by many courses at the Dept. of AGH. This system allows
students to do an independent learning and a number of activities in learning.
Courses with SCL methods are listed in Table 2.4.1.

SCL method requires students to be more responsible in learning and
developed a new habit of studying. With SCL: (1) students are required to be more
active by him/herself and in team work; (2) Lecturer will focus more on promoting
learning and being person who facilitates of learning process; (3) The students will be
the independent learner, whereas lecturers act mostly to create learning environment
that can motivated students to be more active in searching course material.
Some
students
have
the
opportunity
to
participate
in
a
student
exchange/mobility program. In the year of 2010, three students of SP-AGH
participated in MIT (Malaysia Indonesia Thailand) Credit Earning Transfer (CET)
Program, where two students went to Kasetsart University, Thailand, and one
student went to UPM, Malaysia. In 2011, by the same program three students of SPAGH went to Kasetsart University. The Dept. of AGH also recieves eight
exchange/mobility students from UPM in even semester 2011/2012 and seven
exchange/mobility students in odd semester 2012/2013. By CET program, courses
that earned in host university could be transfered in the home university.
SP-AGH students also have to take courses from other departments, i.e. interdepartmental courses, minor courses and/or supporting courses. In general, the
learning process held outside the Dept of AGH is well managed. Possibly, this is
because all of the departments in IPB has a national accreditation and use the IPB
standard procedures. Therefore, the learning process already met the established
standard.
The acdemic information in SP-AGH is well organized. All the institutional
information can be easily delivered to students through the department’s website
(http://agrohort.ipb.ac.id) that is well managed. The website also earned the Best
Department Website award in IPB for the year 2011 and 2012. SP- AGH organize an
effective class size, which is around 60 students per class for course and 30 students
per practice group. Seminar is held two days in one week which accommodate 6
students per seminar day. This seminar schedule facilitate smoother study
completion. Seminar involves the supervising lecturer, moderator, student reviewers
and active audience. The seminar material is based on the research or internship
result, where its implementation is related on the thesis subject. Supervision of the
20
final project is done intensively by Thesis (Final Project) Supervisor and recorded in
the academic consultation book.
All of the learning process is set in Standard Operating Prosedure/ Prosedure
Operasional Baku (POB) IPB. Additionally Dept of AGH has obtained ISO 9001-2008
certification since 2010 in the area of teaching and learning process. Some of the
POB have been developed at the SP-AGH level and had been effectively
implemented.
All of courses in SP-AGH is delivered using LCD and other supporting facilities.
Some courses also uses e-learning facilitated by P3EL (Pusat Pengembangan
Pembelajaran e-Learning, Center for e-Learning Development) IPB. The e-learning
facility has been used to deliver course materials, practice, task and even exam.
Some courses that won grant in Competitive Program on implementing Information
and Communication Technology are displayed in Table 2.4.2. By this competitive
grant, delivery methods on teaching and learning of the courses is considerably
improved.

The teaching and learning strategy is evaluated through GBPP and SAP
review. GBPP and SAP review is carried out in course level by the lecturer in charge
and in the study program level by division where as homebase of the courses.
Feedback for improvement on the teaching strategy is obtained from the evaluation
process of the course (Appendix 2.4.1).
Teaching evaluation is also done based on the scores given by the students
through EPBM (Evaluation on Teaching and Learning Process) form at the end of
each semester for every course. The evaluation comprise of implementation of
course in general, and lecturer's performance, compliance with teaching plan,
correspondence between the exam and the course material, the availability of
adequate facilities. In general EPBM can describe the achievement of course
objectives. EPBM value is one of the indicator of success of the courses as well as
indicator for every lecturer in implementing the learning process. EPBM value of
courses and lecturers in PS-AGH has reached an average of 3.15 and 3.33 (scoring
1 to 4), respectively (see Table 2.13.1 and 2.13.2). SP-AGH always use EPBM value
as consideration to improve the learning process every semester.
In general, there are no obstacles in the implementation the learning process.
The number of students per class room is adjustable with maximum limit of 70
students, therefore courses with large number of students has to be provided in
several parallel classes. IPB give opportunity to study program to do so. The
academic staffs of SP-AGH are high qualification lectures and have capability for
preparing learning materials and enrich it with the results of recent research and
literature. Air conditioned lecture hall, LCD, laptops and loudspeakers are available in
every class room.
For the completion of the study, the students have to do final projects, which
can be chosen through research or internship program in an agriculture company.
Students who take research as their final project should prepare research proposal
which in line with assigment in Scientific Writing course. The Scientific Writing course
is carry out at 6th semester. The topics of final project are announce at the 5th
semester. The students shall choose one among the list of topics and supervisors
provided by Head of SP-AGH. Students that have interest in certain topic can also
22
consult the relevant lecturer. The lecturers that have research project usually offer
the students to join the research team for their final project.
There is a close relationship between education and research. Almost all of
the courses related to commodities provide knowledge about cultivation, so students
who going to work with certain commodity as their final project have already met with
their requirement. The Experimental Design course is meant to prepare students on
how to design research in the field as well as in labs in order to obtain a
representative data and to analyze the data properly. Students are also provided
knowledge and practice for preparing a research proposal, presenting research data
and overview discussion of the report in Scientific Writing course (see Table 2.3.2).
The results of the student's research and internship are presented in thesis. In
addition each student must present their thesis at a seminar attended by the lecturer
and students, weight as 1 credit. Since odd semester 2012, students are required to
write a seminar paper in a journal format. Dept of AGH facilitates the publication at
Indonesian Jurnal of Agronomi, which is a nationally accredited scientific journal, or
on-line journal, Bulletin Agrohorti, which will be launched in near future.
Agricultural Business Practice, a course with 1 credit, provides opportunity for
the students to learn specific aspects of crop cultivation of a particular commodity of
their interest. The prerequisite of this course is all courses related to cultivation
techniques. The students will practice to manage a farm business unit model,
including of vegetable crops, ornamental plants, fruit trees, seed production, food
crops, estate crops, and spices and medicinal plants. This activities facilitate the
students to practice on entrepreneurship. However, implementation of practical
training is constrained by limited funding (derived from students tuition fee) and time
(only 14 weeks). Supervising is conducted by appointed lecturers in accordance with
their competence. Assessment is based on successful entrepreneurship activities.
2.5 Student Assesment
Student
assessments
consist of
assessment
for
student
admission,
assessment for courses at the end of the semester, final task assessment, student
assessment at the end of semester and final program assessment for graduating.
23
The assessment for student admission are requirement mark for biology,
mathematics and chemistry with a minimum of 7.0 from high school in Java and
minimum of 8.0 from high school outside of Java. Other consideration in student
admission is based on performance by the high school alumnae in IPB (see for detail
in Chapter 2.8).
Several methods are used for assessing the students i.e. exams, practical
work, practical report, assignments or evaluation on student’s activities in group
discussions. Each course has appropriate assessment methods depending on the
characteristic of the course itself. It is expected that the objective and learning
outcome of each course is achieved using these various methods of assessment.
Student’s final grades at each course are composed from mid-term exam, final exam,
assignments and practical work and report. The proportion of each mark is set and
acknowledged to all students in the course contract. The grade point is based on the
criteria designated by university, e.i. A, B, C, D and E (fail).
Teaching team has autonomous choice to decide the marks and grade based
on the previously set criteria in course contract. Students who fail the subject have
the opportunity to request a remedial exam or retake the subject in the following
semester/year. Remedial is only allowed to students with scores below C with the
maximum grade after remedial is C.
Student assessment on all courses in a semester is presented in a student’s
academic record (transcript) released at the end of each semester by Directorate of
Academic Administration.
The minimum GPA (Grade Point Average, IP: Indeks
Prestasi) is 2.0 without E. In addition, the transcript also indicates the CGA
(Cummulative Grade Point; IPK: Indeks Prestasi Kumulatif). The CGP and GPA
determine the status of Student Study Continuation (Table 2.5.1).
Guidelines for student’s final project has been set and acknowledged to
ensure students to complete their study on time. Topics for their final projects are
available by the sixth semester. It is necessary that the students pass all prerequisite
subjects prior to starting their final project, i.e. Scientific Writing and Experimental
Design courses with minimum CGP 2.0. Every student will have a supervisor for
his/her final project at the end of the 6th semester.
Supervisors are responsible for
24
monitoring student’s final project and completion of their reports. A consultation book
is provided for each student to monitor their progress and their relationship with the
supervisors.

Prior to their presentation of the final project in a seminar, screening of the
student’s grade is carried out to confirm that all requirements have been fulfilled. This
also serves as a mean for monitoring the student’s progress. The students are
eligible to take final examination following the completion of ≥ 138 credits with CGP
≥ 2.0 without E. The final examination is a comprehensive exam and performed orally
25
as a measure of student’s perception, knowledge and skill upon the completion of
their study and attaining the bachelor degree.
Upon the completion of their study, their graduation status is categoried as
cum laude, with honour (very satisfactory), or pass with ordinary grade
(satisfactory)(Table 2.5.2). The minimum requirements to achieve a bachelor degree
are completing minimum of 144 credits without grade E, minimum CGP 2.0 for all the
courses.

research, community development and other professional activities. Almost all
lecturers have been actively conducting research and/or community development
activities according to their field of expertise. They obtain research funding from
various sources such as
overseas institutions; government institution such as
Ministry of National Education, Ministry of Agriculture, National Research Council;
and private institutions, from IPB and other grants to IPB (Appendix 2.6.2). Most
lecturers are member of professional association (Indonesian Society of Agronomy,
Indonesian Society of Horticulture, Indonesian Society of Weed Science, and
Indonesian Society of Breeding Science), and actively participated in a number of
seminar and workshops to increase their competence and professionalism (Appendix
2.6.3).
It is compulsory for all academic staffs at SP-AGH to set up a teaching plan
i.e. outline of teaching program (GBPP) and plan for teaching and learning activities
(SAP), with a supplementary on development method of study as described in point
2.4 (Teaching and Learning Strategy).
Monitoring and evaluationn of lecturers are based on the student’s learning
performances, working performance assessed by Head of Department (DP3), and
the questionnaires on teaching and learning process (EPBM) distributed to the
students at the end of each semester. Points of evaluation are course content and
teaching quality, i.e. have the course materials been well-prepared and stimulated
the student’s interest to the course, the schedules such as if the course is handled
timely, etc. The EPBM score of all academic staffs in the department is >3 (in the
range 1 to 4) indicating that the lecturers are considered competent to teach and
sufficient for the learning process (Appendix 2.4.1).
Monitoring and evaluation on lecturers are also conducted through Lecturer’s
Performance Index (LPI, IKD: Indeks Kinerja Dosen), attendance during practical
works and lectures, academic workshops, and credits for career promotion.
Evaluation on IKD showed that on average each lecturer had passed the minimum
levels, i.e. 12 credits (Appendix 2.6.4). Lecturers with a status as professor or holding
a Sertificate of Lecturer and pass a minimum of 12 credits are entitled to receive a
28
professional benefit on top of the salary, Medical insurance is provided for all
academic staffs and support staffs.
New staff recruitment is conducted according to guidelines from Ministry of
National Education. Recruitment is based on requirements of each unit, previously
called division, as home base, which is then proposed by head of the unit to head of
department, for further approval by Dean of the corresponding Faculty and Director
of HRD of the University (see the document of manpower planning in IPB). The
candidates will have to go through a national selection process. In some cases head
of a unit recommend candidates who was previously an intern in the unit or have
excellent skill and knowledge. Candidates who passed the selection process will be
appointed as CPNS (candidate of government officer). Each CPNS has to attend a
pre-training, where each candidate has to learn responsibility of government officers
and has to pass a series of exams. Upon the completion of the pre-training, a
candidate will be appointed as a government officer (PNS). After formally accepted
as government officer then the candidate will have a status as junior lecturers and
assigned to a division. The head of the division will give directions for future study.
Head of the division together with Head of Department play an important role in
capacity building of the junior lecturer.
The ratio of lecturer to student is sufficient (Tabel 2.6.2). A sufficient ratio of
lecturer to student leads to an effective learning process, academic support and final
task supervision. The lecturer to student ratio is almost 1:10 and the lecturer to
graduate ratio is around 1:3.

Eventhough the number of lecturer is adequate; a high number of retirements
are predicted to happen in a couple of decade when around 60% of the academic
staff will retire (Figure 2.6.1.). This is a crucial issue that should be solved
immediately. Finding qualified candidate for lecturer is not a difficult task, however
the main obstacle for the department is that the available job vacancy in the Ministry
of National Education is not necessarily match to the need of the department.
Therefore the academic staffs in the department, faculty and university (IPB) level
need to be mapped and updated regularly. This mapping will serve as a basis for
allocating new lecturers in the department.

Junior lecturers will have a role as tutors in practical works or lectures, and are
encouraged to attend various academic trainings. Apart from higher degree study,
junior lecturers are encouraged to prepare research proposals to obtain national
and/or international research funding.
Lecturers are also encouraged to publish their research in national or
international seminars and conferences, as well as in international journals (Appendix
2.6.5). Lecturers are given training on how to prepare a research proposal, and to
prepare a manuscript for international publication. The department has allocated
budget to support the lecturers to attend scientific seminars.
Career promotions are monitored by an established system. Lecturer, who has
stayed at the same level and position for four years, or those who have achieved a
certain amount of credits, will be encouraged to advance their levels. An online
database system has been made available. Therefore, each lecturer who has
30
performed activities could submit their proof to HR unit, and the HR officer will count
their credit and record them in the database system. This will allow more efficient
access to activity data of each individual lecturer.
Professorship is the highest level for a lecturer. In order to reach this level, a
promotion process has to be followed beginning at the unit. The candidate needs to
provide documents or records of their activities to unit meetings to evaluate the
suitability of a lecturer to be promoted as a professor. Once the promotion has been
agreed at the division and department level, another meeting will be held at the
Faculty Senate level and University Senate, prior to propose to the Directorate
General of Higher Education and approved by the Ministry of National Education.
Lecturers are given a set of tasks, including teaching assignments which are
supported by an appointment letter from the Faculty Dean, supervising students
during their study (academic supervisor), and supervising students for their final
project or thesis, as external examiners, or as a consultant in community
development projects conducted by the department. These assignments are based
on the expertise area of each lecturer. Appointment as an academic supervisor is
based on the lecturers expertise taking their work load into consideration.
The rules and conduct of academic staffs has been established and stated in
the Senate decree No.: 25/I/KEP/SA/2003 about standard, etiquette, and discipline of
academic staffs at IPB and has been put together in a booklet and distributed among
all the academic staffs (Appendix 2.6.6).
The age of retirement for an academic staff is 65 years old. For professors,
the retirement can be extended up until 70 years old. When entering the retirement
stage, pensioners still receive retirement savings fund, pension benefit and medical
insurance.
2.7. Support Staff Quality
Support staff for library, computer and academic administration service are
provided at the university (IPB) level. At the department level, references and book
collection are managed in the reading room. Computer and internet facilities are also
31
managed under university level, along with academic administration service. The
department has 42 support staffs, consist of 25 permanent and 17 non-permanent
staff . The support staff at Deptartment level work as library staffs, technicians of the
laboratories, general administration and general services. All these support staff are
under the Head of Administration at the department, who reports directly to the Head
of Department. Composition of support staff at Dept of AGH is presented in Table
2.7.1. The administration support staff to student ratio is 1:36 until 1:50, which means
that administration support staffs provide service for 36 - 50 students. The ratio of
technician to students is 1 : 28 (18 : 500) and the ratio of technician to lecturers is 1 :
3.6 (18 : 65). The ratio of other support staff to student is 1 : 12 (42 : 500), while the
ratio of the other support staff to lecturers is 1: 1.5 (42 : 65).

2.8. Student Quality
New students selection follows the regulation from the Ministry of National
Education No. 34/2010, about “New Student Admission Scheme for Public
University”, and Standard Operational Procedure of IPB for New Students Enrolment.
The process conducted by New Students Enrolment Committee at the University
level. There are several entry schemes:
(1)
National Admission Selection for Public University (Seleksi Nasional Masuk
Perguruan Tinggi Negeri, SNMPTN) by Invitation scheme. This scheme based
on candidate academic performance during studying at High School.
Candidates are selected from the best students of all high schools in Indonesia.
Formerly, this scheme was named USMI (Undangan Seleksi Masuk IPB,
Invitation of IPB Entry Selection).
34
(2)
National Admission Selection for Public University (SNMPTN) by Test scheme
organised by organised by Ministry of Education and Culture
(3)
Special Invitation for high school graduates who won national or international
awards (Prestasi Internasional dan Nasional, PIN).
(4)
Independent Talent Based Examination (Ujian Talenta Mandiri, UTM), which
was started in 2009 organised by IPB..
(5)
Local Government Scholarship, or BUD (Beasiswa Utusan Daerah). This
scheme performed by IPB collaborates with local government of Indonesian
(provinces or district level) to select best students from each provinces/region to
study at IPB.
SNMPTN is a national test-based selection for entering public university.
The subject in test consist of Natural Science, Mathematics, Bahasa Indonesia, and
English. In SNMPTN, student candidates could select 1st, 2nd, and 3rd choice of
public university that will be decided by computerize passing selection according to
standard and competitiveness of each study program in the university. By SNMPTN,
student candidates from different region in Indonesia can apply and take written test
in their regional area.
USMI scheme is best practice of IPB admission sheme since 1970th. In this
scheme, IPB offer to all High School accross Indonesia to send their best students.
From experience, IPB has the record of high schools in Indonesia. They are selected
based on their academic achievement. In USMI scheme, selection criteria are based
on the students achievement on several key subjects, i.e. Biology, Chemistry,
Mathematics, Physics, Bahasa Indonesia, and English during their last 5 semesters
at high school.
BUD is a student recruitment scheme sponsored by the local governments
and private companies. PIN is a selection system based on international and national
achievements in academics, sports, or art competition. UTM is a selection scheme
used to recruite leaders and entreprener to develop agriculture and to prepare
prominent graduate for future leaders. By all these admission scheme, especially by
USMI and BUD scheme, IPB receives students from all provinces in Indonesia.
35
During 2006 to 2011, IPB students come from 34 or all provices of Indonesia,
although around 70% of them come from provinces in Java island.
Student admission to SP-AGH is dominated by USMI scheme. More than
90% of new students from USMI scheme chose SP-AGH as their first choice, and
less than 10% as their second choice with highly consideration based on academic
record and grade in their High School. Table 2.8.1 show the competitiveness of SPAGH from various admission scheme. The student mostly selected from USMI,
based on a long experience this type of selection scheme is beneficial in many
aspects, such as good academic performance of student and dispersion among
region. The USMI scheme then adopted at national level for the admission scheme
called as SNMPTN by invitation since 2011. Adoption of the USMI (SNMPTN by
invitation) at national scheme boost the competitiveness of SP-AGH.
In 2011 SP-AGH accreditated with highest mark from National Accreditation
Board (marked 382 of 400) and considered as the best study program in field of
Agronomy and Horticulture or Agroecotechnology in Indonesia. Since then the ratio
of applicants to admitted students increased considerably from 3.9 to around 9.6.
The competitiveness of SP-AGH IPB is also indicated by the ratio of applicants to
admitted students through SNMPTN ranged 1:10 to 1:16.1 (Table 2.8.1).

One of the important admission policies at IPB is to ensure that the enrolled
students came from different provinces. However, 70% of the current students are
from Java (Jakarta, Banten, West Java, Central Java, Yogyakarta, and East Java).
IPB has initiated collaboration with local governments at province and district level
outside Java to give a chance to potential students candidate from those region. The
strategy is expected to accelerate agricultural development in Indonesia. IPB has
also promoted the University overseas by highlighting Good Agricultural Practices
(GAP) in Tropical Agriculture.
All of the students in SP-AGH are full time students. Based on gender
perspective SP-AGH accepted more female students than male students, even in
2009 the ratio between the two categories was 2.2 : 1 (Table 2.8.2). Since then SPAGH takes into consideration the gender balance, because SP-AGH does not
dicriminate gender, even though in some job such as in plantation company offer
prefebly required male graduates.

All new students are taking the same common courses in the first year which
takes about 31 credit (SKS) (see 2.2) before they joint the study program. After take
common courses in the first year, the student take a number of credits (SKS) depend
on the GPA of the previous semester.
37
2.9. Student Advice and Support
First year students are supervised and are entitled to students counselling.
Councellors are assigned among dedicated academic staffs and also involve the
psychologist. Councellors give advises and guidance on the learning strategy for the
new students in general during the first year, and the following years when the
students started their subject. Counsellors also give advises on non study related
issues that affect the learning success.
First year students learn about multi culture interactive during their one year
stay at University dormitories. Experiencing on multi-culture programs are expected
to increase their understanding on different cultures and stimulated their tolerance on
cultural differences.
After first year program, the students will enter to the study program. Every
student then will get an academic supervisor assigned by the Dean as proposed by
Head of Department. The task of academic supervisor including: 1) Directing the
student to arrange the comprehensive study plan; 2) Giving advise on selecting the
major course, minor or supporting courses; 3) Giving advise relates with the number
of credits of subject in every semester; 4) Giving service as a counsellor; 5) Giving
consideration relates with status of study progress of student to the Department and
Faculty.
Students study progress evaluation are conducted centrally by the
Directorate of Education Administration at the University level. The Directorate
produced transcripts at the end of each semester, containing the grade of the
students for each course taken per semester and the resulting Cummulative Point
Index (CPI, or Indeks Prestasi Kumulatif (IPK)). Thus, the students are well informed
on their current study progress. These evaluation system allow the students to plan
their program for the following semesters. The students academic transcript also
should be used as consideration by the academic supervisor on providing the advice
and guidance for the students.
Consultation with academic supervisor can be conducted during the whole
semester, and recorded in a consultation book signed by the academic supervisor.
38
The number of courses taken are recorded in a study planning card (KRS) which
have to be approved by the academic supervisor.
The students association, HIMAGRON, or Himpunan Mahasiswa Agronomi
(Agronomy Student Association) facilitates the students socials and extra curriculum
activities. HIMAGRON activities are monitored and supervised by academic staff
under Student and Alumnae Affair. Some of the important and popular activities of
HIMAGRON is a yearly Plant Festival, Seminar on writing a scientific research
project as Student Creativity Program (PKM, Program Kreativitas Mahasiswa), and
community development. These activities enhanced the softskill of the students.
Sport facilities are available for the students, including futsal, football,
athletics, basket ball, badminton, volley ball, etc. There are regular intra and interdepartment or inter-faculty sport competitions. The University awares to the
importance of sports for health, so all the sport facilities are maintained by the
University.
In addition to sport, the deparment has a music studio to be used by students
and academics who love music. The department aware that musics are important
part of the students and academics life. Students have formed music groups, both
singing and bands. Student and Alumnae Affair has been appointed to maintain the
music studio, as well as to develop the talents among the students.
The majority of the AGH students are moslems, so the department have set
up the room and facilities for the students to pray. There is also a large mosque
within the campus, managed by the University. Other religion are also allocated
rooms for them to do their religion practices.
The University also have campus bus, bikes, canteens, in-campus cybers,

responsible to provide information and technology services (more detail could be
accessed at dksi.ipb.ac.id). Right now, all campus areas are connected through a
Local Area Network (LAN) and Metropolitan Area Network (MAN) using various
transmition media such as Twisted-Pair Cable (VTP/STP), optic fiber cable and
wireless (wifi). Data transmission speed for intranet access is 100-1000 Mbps, while
43
internet access is 150 Mbps. Application use are dBase, Clipper, Visual Basic,
ASDP/PHP, MS-SQL Server 7.0, MySQL, MS Office, and other licensed Microsoft
products. Other than that, DKSI made an Information System Management on
Academic Affair (SIMAK), Card of Study Plan (KRS) on-line, and Evaluation on
Teaching and Learning Process (EPBM) on-line. Other services are also being
provided as resource sharing activities such as file and print sharing, Email, Web,
Chat, Mailing List, Discussion Groups, Multimedia streaming, Video/Teleconference,
VoIP/IP Telephony/PABX, and Voice Mail. Student access on information is well
facilitated through Student Cyber facilities that are spread out in several locations in
campus with a User Access Mechanism.
The department has created an internet website. Fourteen hotspots are
available around the department and have been used extensively by the students
and the academics in the campus. The network is managed by IT staff. The
department is planning to develop the network, including creating local database,
purchasing new desk tops and replacing computers which are more than 4 years-old,
increase the number of IP adress from 500 to 1000, expand the accessibility of the
hotspots, and renewing the LAN cabling systems. Information on scholarship, job
opportunities, research position, invitation to seminars and conferences are made
available in the announcement boards as well as at the department’s website. The
department has sufficient communication facilities including telephones, fax, scanner,
and copier.
Study progress of the students are recorded at study program at the
department level, submitted to Academic Management at the Faculty level, hence to
Directorate of Education Administration. These data/information can be accessed
and retrieved using an on line SIMAK. The study program at the department are
well-equipped with sufficient computer systems and supported by skilled staffs.
Financial sources from Routine budgeting scheme (RKAT) and Grants
scheme are available for purchasing new facilities as well as maintaining the existing
properties and facilities within the Department. Regular inventory is conducted to
ensure all facilities are consistently available for teaching and learning activities. The
Department appointed permanent support staff and outsourcing supporting workers
44
to manage and maintain the properties and facilities within the department, including
office and classrooms cleaning, since these facilities are not only used for teaching
and learning purposes but also used for seminars and conferences.
IPB has medical facility (Polyclinic) for students and staffs within the Darmaga
Campus and Baranangsiang Campus that gives medical services. Other than that,
students are put as participants in the Student Medical Support System (PPKM),
including aid for hospital care. In the Darmaga campus there is also one ambulance
unit and funeral car/hearse.
Efforts in anticipating disasters had been done in the Dept of AGH. There are
evacuation lane and fire safety equipment. Fire fighter training was done in
collaboration with Bogor County Fire Fighters in the year 2010. Other than that, IPB
also have a fire truck unit.
2.11. Quality Assurance of Teaching and Learning Process
Curriculum for undergraduate students was designed to meet the learning
outcomes of the study program (SP-AGH) as described in point 2.1. The learning
outcomes of SP-AGH was developed based on the vision, mission and mandate of
the department taking into account the current technological development. The
curriculum was developed by all teaching staff members at the SP-AGH during a
workshop on curriculum design and evaluation.
Stakeholders, such as alumnae
association of Department of Agronomy, and others are also present at the
workshop.
The curriculum evaluation is very important for graduates quality assurance,
and to correspond the graduates skills with the needs of the work forces. Curriculum
evaluations are performed through in-depth discussion on courses composition, inter
departmental courses, final research projects and course’s contribution towards the
learning outcomes and targeted competence. Students are given opportunities to
contribute their inputs on the curriculum, especially through teaching and learning
process evaluation. Another important goal of curriculum evaluation is to improve the
curiculum, so that the curriculum is not only reached the national standard but also
the international standard as affected by latest development in science and
45
technology. Therefore, improvements is a continuous process towards a better
teaching and learning processes as well as better understanding on the advance
science and technology. The curriculum is evaluated every 5 years to allow one
batch of students completed their full cycle of study. The last two curriculum
evaluation was conducted in 2005 and 2011.
Several workshops have been run to gather inputs from related stakeholder.
Workshop on evaluation of final research project for student’s thesis has also been
conducted, since the study period is determined by final project completion.
Evaluation on teaching and learning process usually is performed at the end of
each semester, internally within the department level involving the academic staffs.
Evaluation is emphasized on the implementation and the process of teaching and
learning, and the improvement needed for the following semester. Since Dept. of
AGH implemenst ISO 9001:2008, internal audit is regularly performed to assess all
aspects of the management processes, especially the academic aspects.
Quality assurance at the university level is organized yearly by internal audits
at IPB level (Office for Internal Audit) which includes education aspect, management,
properties and facilities, using nasional, university, and departmental SOP as
standards. The audit system both in Departemen level and IPB level are aimed to
ensure the continuous improvement and to meet stakeholder satisfaction.
Students are involved in the evaluation of teaching and learning by
participating in a survey and they are required to fill in Teaching and Learning
Process Evaluation Forms (EPBM), facilitated by IPB Office for Quality Assurance
(Kantor Manajemen Mutu, KMM). The questionnaires of EPBM including students
perception on course implementation and lecturers performance. The EPBM results
are then used to improve the learning process.
Dept of AGH assure the quality of its graduates by regularly performed
curriculum evaluation, continuously encourage all academic staffs to sustain to the
latest development in sciences, continuously improving learning facilities, and
developing programs to increase soft skills. Academic staffs are encouraged to
attend seminars, workshops, academic recharging programs inside and outside the
country.
46
SP-AGH has quality assurance system that is upheld by the study program’s
continuing efforts to:
1. Facilitate all academic staffs to continue their study to a PhD level. Currently
15% academic staffs hold a Master degree, and 85% hold a PhD level. The
academic staffs develop their expertise in division of Plant Production, Seed
Science and Technology, Plant Physiology, Genetics and Plant Breeding, and
Plant Biotechnology. It is expected that each division will grow up and develop
at a balanced pace.
2. Provide funding to support academic staffs to participate in local, national and
international seminars, workshops and symposiums to keep updated with the
latest development in their field of interests.
3. Raising funds for the under privileged students, particularly those who have
good academic records but experienced difficulties to pay their tuition fee
and/or living cost. The funds mostly come from alumni.
4. Set up a Quality Assurance Unit to give feed backs on how to further improve
the teaching and learning at the study program.
Quality Assurance (QA) Team in Dept of AGH is responsible for evaluation of
curriculum implementation and to maintain quality of education at the Department.
The QA team including head of each division and responsible for evaluation on
course content and exams, particularly to ensure that they comply to the set
Operational Standards and Procedures (PSM AGH11). The team with designated
responsibilities is still working hard to ensure the quality assurance process moves in
apropriate way.
The study progress of the students and their study completion are evaluated
using a system called SIMAK, the Information System on Academic Management.
The head of study program, along with the student’s academic advissors monitor the
student’s progress by ensuring the number of credits/courses completed at each
semester and their GPA are satisfactory.
The graduates are monitored by a tracer study carried out periodically. The
monitoring results plays an important roles for the curriculum evaluation as well as to
ensure the quality of the graduates.
47
2.12. Staff Development Activities
Academics career and personal development are managed by the
Department, which is the home base of the academics. Academic development for
academic staff is conducted within the division, i.e. Plant Ecophysiology, Plant
Production, Plant Biotechnology, Seed Science and Technology and Genetics and
Plant Breeding. Academic development, including advanced study for a higher
degree education ( doctorate degree), is part of career promotion and is aligned with
the professional interests of each academic and the targeted competence of the staff
division. The Head of Division made a gap analysis between current condition and
requirements for fullfilling the the university standard or future need to accomplish the
organization vision and mission. According to this gap analysis, the Head of Division
proposed a training or program improvement. This procedure is also required by the
ISO 9001:2008 quality management. After the training or program development,
Head of division will evaluate the effectiveness of those programs and their impact on
the competence and performance of the academic staffs.
The Department and the University continously inform the academics on the
available external research grants and encouraged the academics to submit a
proposal to obtain the grant.
Apart from higher degree studies, academic
development is conducted through trainings, workshops, scientific staff exchanges,
internship in an overseas institutes or University, and post-doctoral program
overseas. To date some academics have participated in trainings in Pakistan, The
Netherland, Thailand, Japan, China, United States of America and Australia through
the international collaborations of the Department (Appendix 2.12.1).
Supporting staff have 27 personnels, 85% of them do the administrations,
15% as technicians (both indoor labs and in the experimental stations). Current ratio
of administration personnels to students is 1:35.4 to 50, meaning each person will
have to provide service to 36 - 50 students. The ratio of technician to students is
around 1:40 to 1: 60, which reflects the relatively sufficient number of technicians
compared to the number of students to be served. The Department is aware of this
48
condition and is planning to provide trainings, particularly to the support staffs with
high school education level, which comprise >50% of the existing personnels.
The Dept of AGH has a system to educate and to train the support staffs.
Regular meetings are conducted within the Department to discuss the best way to
educate and to improve the skills of the support staffs. A development of the support
staffs is done according to the work assigned. The fund for the training comes from
the University and other programs on that the Department involved. Some training on
softskill development and techniques have been participated by the support staffs of
AGH, including on education administration, experimental station management,
laboratory skills, the use of office programs, organic farming and agro-tourism
(Appendix 2.12.2). Opportunities are opened for existing staff/personnel to pursue
career development and training within or outside the University.
2.13. Stakeholders Feedback
Stakeholders feedback is assessed from students, alumnae, academic staff,
support staff, and alumnae work place through some evaluation instruments. The
incoming feedback is taken into consideration to improve service for a better
stakeholder satisfaction and for the study program improvement, including teaching
and learning methods, process and curicullum review.
Information of student’s satisfaction on the teaching and learning methods and
implementation, including on education facilities, are obtained from students
evaluation on teaching and learning process (EPBM). The student’s satisfaction
evaluation on the teaching are based on the lecturer’s course materials and course
deliveries as well as class room facilities; whereas student’s satisfaction evaluation
on the implementation of final projects in the final year are based on the provided
facilities, research funding availabilities and supervisory through out the projects.
The questionnaires comprise of 8 questions (Table 2.13.1.) regarding the
teaching implementation and 11 questions (Table 2.13.2.) regarding the way courses
were delivered. In summary, implementation of courses and practicals as well as the
quality of teaching delivery by the lecturers of AGH were considered good or
satisfactory by the students.

Information on alumnae satisfaction with their education were obtained from a
tracer study on graduates employment, waiting time to employment, initial wages and
type of jobs as indicators. Questionnaires on this are presented in Appendix 2.13.1.
In summary, graduates were employed in 1-16 months after graduation with 51.35%
got a job within less than 3 months, 37.84% between 3-6 months, 8.1% 6-12 months,
and the rest after 12 months (Figure 2.13.1). There were 3% who were already
employed before they graduated. The initial salary range from Rp 1.5 to 3 million per
month. The majority (81.3%) received training before starting their job on work
environment, production, management, reporting and presentation skills. In addition,
the surveyed graduates stated that they had no difficulties to adapt to their new
working environment and to communicate with their colleagues and their business
relations.
Most graduates (60%) worked in the relevant area of agriculture, whereas
40% in non agriculture area. The opposite was found in graduates of other
department, such as Geophysics and Meteorology where only 30% of their graduates
worked in the area of agriculture (Fig 2.13.1). Most graduates of AGH worked in Java
(78%), followed by Sumatera (10%) and others (12%). The infrastructure availability,
including transportation, communication and company facilities were considered as
important measures to seek jobs.
Feedbacks from lecturers are collected through weekly meeting (Wednesday
weekly meeting), inputs from the message box, course preparation meeting before
the start of the semester, course evaluation meeting at the end of the semester and
special forum. Feedback from support staff is collected via message box and monthly
meeting that is facilitated with the management of the department.

2.14. Output
Average duration of study at Dept of AGH between 2006/2007 to 2009/2010 is
53.7 months, where 38.07% of students completed their study for 48 months, 37.54%
for 49-54 months, 13.38% for 55-60 months, and 11.01% for more than 60 months
(Table 2.14.1). These data demonstrated that most students graduate within the
designated period for completion under the existing education curricullum. The good
academic atmosphere, good implementation of education programs, and the good
quality students enrolled at the department contributed to the student success.
Cummulative Grade Point (CGP) is the criteria or standard used to determine
student’s academic performance. Data of the students and their study performance
(CGP) indicated that the teaching and learning process at the SP-AGH is sufficient to
improve the qualification of the students. The average CGP of the graduates has
improved during the last 5 years (2006-2010), i.e. 3.02 in 2006/2007, 3.00 in
52
2007/2008, 3.01 in 2008/2009, 3.05 in 2009/2010 and 3.10 in 2010/2011 (Table
2.14.2). There has been an increasing number of students with CGP of 3.01-3.50 i.e
39.8% in 2006/2007 to 53.6% in 2009/2010. The increase in CGP is an evident that
the curricullum developed at Dept of AGH are appropriate for the students learning
process.

The students drop out rate based on data (2006/2007 – 2010/2011) is around
2.41% to the total number of students. The number of drop out varies with time
(Table 2.14.3), and mostly occurred on the first year, due to the failures of the
students in passing the basic courses in the common first year. The failures after the
students joint the Department (year 2-4) were 3.2% for entry students in 2007, and
1.9% for entry student in 2008.
Academic staff of Dept of AGH show active contribution both in research
(Appendix 2.6.2) and publication (Appendix 2.6.6).
Overall, the topics vary from
basic to applied research in various aspects of agronomy disciplines. Almost all of
the research fundings come from competitive grant that reflect the high qualification
of academic staff. Student research for final project could be as part of academic
staff research or independent topics proposed by themselves. Student research
process was evaluated by survey and resulted in satisfaction (see Table 2.15.1),
53
whereas the substance was evaluated by the Examination committe which compose
of supervissor, external examiner, and appointed examiner from the study program.
