In the industrial era 4.0, technological knowledge, especially information technology is very important. UMKM are micro-enterprises that should have used the information access for the economic welfare of a region, but vice versa. Current problems with UMKM include lack of capital and knowledge of information technology. Winduaji village is one of the villages with UMKM actors with minimal information technology knowledge. The method of implementation is the method of discussion with the format of Training regarding identifying problems to the use of technology media. This training activity was attended by 56 participants consisting of village officials, UMKM actors, and tourism conscious reservoirs. As a result, all participants showed great interest in using social media marketing continuously.
Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSDs) caused by computer use have become the most common ergonomic risks. The risk experienced can be in the form of financial losses or even lives. Therefore, efforts are needed to prevent the occurrence of ergonomic risks so as not to cause large losses. The Rapid Office Strain Assessment (ROSA) has been designed to identify ergonomic risk factors and is reliable for the assessment of office workers' MSDs. This study evaluates the potential risk of ergonomics in female office workers because a previous study found that MSDs were more common in women. From the two workers observed, it was found that workers 1 and 2 received different scores on several assessment components. The different things are the length of the seat holder, armrests, spine brace, and keyboard. This difference is caused by body posture and different types of chairs. The length of the chair and the spinal brace is influenced by the different postures of the two workers. Worker 1 has a shorter upper leg length than worker 2, so she cannot use the backbone section of the chair. Although there are differences in scores on some components of the assessment, both workers have the same final ROSA score, which is 5. This indicates that further posture assessment needs to be done using tools other than ROSA to detect the specific cause of MSDs levels.
Coconut sugar is one of the leading commodities in Banyumas City, coconut sugar and it is derivative processing can make a high contribution to the development of the local economy of the community. This can be seen from the history of the production of coconut sugar whose trend is always increasing, in 2013 the production of coconut sugar was 206,026 tons / day, in 2014 it increased to 240 tons / day and in 2015 the production reached 250 tons / day. This study aims to find an area of improvement for the design of tree climbing aids that are in line with the expectations of the nira hikers in the Cilongok Banyumas City. In carrying out their work, the loudspeakers did not have much safety equipment, in a day, the loudspeakers had to climb 40 trees from morning to evening. The average height of each coconut tree that is climbed is around 20 until 30 meters. This study aims to design coconut climbing aids for the nira hardener with a quality function deployment (QFD) approach. In the process of retrieving data, the researcher identifies the desires of consumers, a questionnaire that has been determined and contains attributes in accordance with the quality plan that has been determined in the framework of the thought distributed to the subject. The way to find out the user anthropometry data is by measuring height, body dimensions, age, weight and length of work, so that we can obtain a reference for designing coconut tree climbing aids that are in accordance with the expectations of the palm fruit pusher.
Student interactions with the devices and software used can result in excessive mental workload, which of course also has an impact on decreasing productivity and work functions and indirectly harms student health, as well as student interactions in using the Learning Management System (LMS). Which is expected to continue to be utilized and developed to achieve greater convenience and profit, LMS is expected to continue to be developed and utilized optimally. This study is intended to analyze the mental workload felt by students in the learning process through LMS. An experimental ergonomics approach is used in this study by applying the modified NASA-TLX method. The results of the research experiment show that students feel a high mental workload when using the assignment module, quiz module, and forum module on the LMS, these modules produce a high mental workload due to cognitive difficulty, instruction complexity, and work habits.
Purpose: The existing vocational education resources in Southwest Sumba do not yet have the appropriate quality, both from the aspect of collaboration to the output produced, in terms of graduates from related vocational education. Therefore, an approach related to needs assessment is needed to obtain input related to the quality development of vocational education from all stakeholders involved. Research Methodology: To provide improvement suggestions to enhance the quality of vocational education, this study conducted a needs assessment which was carried out using desk reviews, focus group discussions, interviews, and field observations and involved various stakeholders come from regulators, implementers, and vocational education graduates’ users. Results: Based on the needs assessment that has been conducted, four main problems were found, including the number of irrelevant vocational education institutions with the needs, a limited number of local industries as graduates' users, less government commitment as a regulator, and less quality of graduated. Several solutions can be applied, such as creating a partnership forum with industries, enabling the internship opportunity, developing a skill development center, and implementing a teaching factory at existing vocational education. Limitations: In this study, the involved stakeholders in the assessment tend to be incomplete, where students' perspectives as a product of vocational education cannot be accommodated and concluded properly. Contribution: This research hopefully can be a reference in quality improvement management, especially in vocational education, and beneficial for vocational education development and, in a broad sense, education.
