1. Courses EPBM Score and Written Feedback from The Students
To enhance the educational services provided by the Animal Production and Technology study program, this summarized report for the student online assessment (EPBM) will be distributed to both students and lecturers. While the average score for each course ranges from 3.76 to 3.90, the EPBM score for each class ranges from 3.76 to 3.90 and for the lecture score for each course ranges from 3.75 to 3.87, the lecturers score for each class 3.75 to 3.87. According to the IPB quality assurance system, the EPBM score should be more than 3.00, and the maximum possible value is 4.00. Either average per class, average per course, and average lecturers score per class or per course is considered good (In alignment with the IPB quality assurance system, the EPBM score must exceed 3). Table 1 below displays the entire EPBM score for each class or course and Table 2 displays the entire EPBM score for the lecture in each.
