PENDIDIKAN JARAK JAUH SEBAGAI SARANA PERBAIKAN LINGKUNGAN
Environmental issues at this time are very worrying it should be handled. This problem can happen because there is no awareness about problems of environment, and of non existing public education about the environment. Environmental education should be given since childhood, because the moral values received during childhood will not be easily forgotten. Presently, environmental education at the elementary level is ignored, because teachers who have knowledge in the field of environment is limited. Environmental education is very important for all, for that reason the socialization of environmental education is very crucial, especially for decision-makers, the bureaucrats and political elite, or those who can influence other people such as teachers and trainers. One alternative for environmental education is through the open and distance learning system. This system is very potential not only as a self-learning need, but also to enhance educational access. Distance learning system can be used for mass education, providing greater opportunity for people to study whenever they have time and wherever they are
PELAKSANAAN PRAKTEK MENGAJAR BAGI GURU PESERTA PENDIDIKAN JARAK JAUH YANG TINGGAL DI WILAYAH TERPENCIL
This study aims to identify problems facing by participants in experiencing teaching pratice under The Strengthening Teaching Competency Programme. An evaluation method was employed through problem and issues maping, interpreting problem dynamics, and improving actions. A qualitative-naturalistic approach with inteview was conducted during April-July 2009 to participants of Lower Secondary School Teacher Training who live in remote and rural areas in Bandung, Bogor and Serang region. Interview was also conducted to tutors, supervisors, programme manager, remote-school principals, peer teachers and students involved in the teaching practicum/exercise. Observations and documentary study were employed to support the data of the interview. Problems identified as the low performance of supervisory officials and partnership schools in guiding student teachers in developing didactic materials for both practicum and final exam. Most participants become stressed due to the absence of a definite timetable guidance process both in the process of lesson plan development, implementation of practicum and execution of final exams. It was suggested to redesign the current system with a more reliable system for participants coming from remote areas who wish to carry out teaching practice. 
PENERAPAN METODE CREDITRISK+ DALAM PENGUKURAN RISIKO KREDIT KENDARAAN BERMOTOR (KASUS PADA PT X)
Identify and measure credit risk by using a method in accordance with the characteristics of finance companies is one of a prudent first step in minimizing potential losses. Potential losses can be seen from the Non Performing Loan (NPL) and recovery rate of the company. Credit risk measurement remains important as preventive and anticipatory measures for a finance company in managing the potential consumer default in fulfilling their obligations. By using 36 months of credit risk in motor vehicles (2006-2008) which includes the number of units of motor vehicles, the amount of exposure, collectability and recovery rate can be calculated expected Loss, unexpected loss and economic capital. Results showed that both the expected Loss and unexpected loss from year to year increase. Also with the economic capital increases annually. However, if the economic value associated with authorized capital owned by PT "X" each year, it can be concluded that the capital is still sufficient to cover possible losses caused by credit default unexpected losses. Testing the model using back testing and Likelihood Ratio, indicates that during the observation period the number of adverse events "X" with the level of losses that exceed the value of the vehicle financing credit VaR is still below the threshold amount of loss that can be tolerated. In other words the risk measurement method using a motor vehicle financing CreditRisk+ is acceptable and accurate enough to measure the risk of motor vehicle financing PT "X"

EFISIENSI DAN AKURASI COMPUTERIZED ADAPTIVE TESTING PADA SISTEM UJIAN AKHIR SEMESTER UNIVERSITAS TERBUKA
Universitas Terbuka (UT) applied online examination system (sistem ujian online SUO) for end of semester examination (ujian akhir semester-UAS), beside the paper and pencil test (P & P test). In order to improve efficiency, adaptive test application should be analyzed, as an alternative to present UAS system. The aim of the research was to compare the efficiency and accuracy level of the computerized adaptive testing (CAT) design and conventional test using both P & P test and SUO. The research was conducted by simulation procedure. The item bank for the simulation used calibrated 404 test items using item response theory model. In the research, CAT and P & P test algorithm was developed. To measure efficiency, the required number of the CAT design was analyzed, while to measure accuracy of the estimation, the bias and standard error of measurement of both design were compared. The simulation result showed that (1) CAT design was more efficient, since it required only half of the number of item which was used in P & P test, to estimate the ability of examinee, (2) CAT design was more accurate in estimating ability of examinee, compared to P & P test design, since it resulted lower bias and standard error of measurement compared to conventional test design. Therefore, CAT design could be applied in UTs UAS system, while considering the balance of content for each modules
