Boosting Indonesia’S Creative Industries: Identification of People’S Characteristics and Creative Behaviour

Abstract The purpose of this paper is to suggest an empirical model to assess personal characteristics and creative behaviour among creative workers in Indonesia’s creative industries. It is critical for people to do their best to ensure and realise that creativity is one of the most important elements in order to achieve high performance. Although a few previous studies have focused on the understanding of how the myriad of interacting potential creators can foster their performance, the characteristics and behaviour patterns of Indonesia’s creative workers are not well identified yet. Considering this, a new measure has been developed and evaluated with a group of creative workers (N = 220). This study presents data supporting the reliability (internal consistency) and validity (criterion and construction) of this multidimensional instrument. The results of factor analysis indicated a fivefactor solution. These factors demonstrated adequate internal consistency and correlations with the established measures of the Big-Five personality (e.g. the NEO-FFI of Costa & McCrae 1992). It was found that the most important elements determining the characteristics of creative people are enthusiasm, a low depression level, self-discipline, trust, and ideas.

From traditional learning into e-learning: Comparing students response to promote e-learning in college education

The purpose of this study was to measure student response by compared Management Department and Accounting Department, against a system of learning in e-learning. The samples are taken by non-probability sampling method that is purposive. Three hundred students (respondents) from these two departments of a private university are participated in this study, with a standard error of 1%. Based on a set of general questions concerning use and acceptance of e-learning the responses are categorized and evaluated. The results show good acceptance and relatively easy use of e-learning by responding students. For the idea of applying e-learning, the result of majoring in accounting (76%) said that the idea seems right e-Learning applied but for the Management students, only 32% of students who respond well.

Assessing creativity skill development in art and design among undergraduate students: Implementing creative potential simulation software to capture creativity-relevant personal characteristics

Identification of creativity skill development among undergraduate art and design students was assessed using a computer software creativity simulation. This software has been developed and evaluated with two groups of Art and Design students of a private university in Indonesia. The study presents preliminary findings of an examination creative behavioral model. This examination presents data supporting reliability and validity of the instrument. Student learning of creativity skill was evident using the creative potential simulation software. Results of a factor analysis indicated a five factor solution of creative characteristics and behavior. Discussion of findings and the benefits of computer simulations for learning and assessment of creativity skills are presented.

Action Design of Information Systems Security Governance for Bank Using COBIT 4.1 and Control Standard of ISO 27001

The aim of the study is to design remediation information systems security governance at Bank. This study provided proposed solutions to solve the existing gaps between the current condition and the expected information systems of the banks security governance. A case study of a commercial bank is used in this study. There are 7 process frameworks of COBIT 4.1 used to measure the maturity level of information systems security governance. Of these processes, appropriate controls within the framework of COBIT 4.1 and ISO27001 are undertaken. As a result, the security of governance information systems is increasing. In conclusion, there is a need of reliable information systems security governance to achieve the intended business goals.
