This also covers multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary studies on sustainable development in regional, national and global perspectives.<br /><br /><strong>ISSN: </strong>2782-9413<br /><strong>E-ISSN:</strong> 2799-0583<br /><strong>Frequency: </strong>Quarterly<br /><strong>Review Type:</strong> Double-blind Review<br /><strong>Submission Link: </strong><a href="https://jemds.cspc.edu.ph">https://jemds.cspc.edu.ph</a></p> https://journals.cspc.edu.ph/index.php/jemds/article/view/132 Analysis of Factors Related To The Application Of Accounting Information Systems In Small Medium & Micro Businesses 2023-06-01T14:54:12+08:00 Rapina Rapina [email protected] Yenni Carolina [email protected] Joni [email protected] Silvia Anggraeni [email protected] <p>The purpose of this study is to determine how big influence time constraints, financial constraints and external expertise constraints on the successful application of accounting information systems in Small and Medium-sized<br />Enterprises (SMEs) in Bandung, Indonesia. The population in this study consisted of accounting and finance staff in Bandung. The sampling technique used was purposive sampling. The data that has been obtained was processed using Structural Equation Modeling Partial Least Squares (SEM PLS). The statistical analysis technique uses SEM because there is a causal relationship between variables and each variable is unobserved. Research has shown that time constraints, financial constraints, and external expertise constraints can affect the success of implementing accounting information systems. According to the concept, a successful implementation of accounting information system will help users in making decisions.</p> 2023-03-31T00:00:00+08:00 Copyright (c) 2023 Journal of Education, Management and Development Studies https://journals.cspc.edu.ph/index.php/jemds/article/view/174 ALPAS (ALleviating PAndemic Severity) Through Foresight: Capping the Digital Divide 2023-03-31T13:19:03+08:00 Romeo B Sotto [email protected] April Z Luzon [email protected] Seth B Barandon [email protected] Jocelyn O Jintalan [email protected] Maria Joy I Idian [email protected] Estelito R Clemente [email protected] Marlon S Pontillas [email protected] Harold Jan R Terano [email protected] Juvy M Bustamante [email protected] Filmor J Murillo [email protected] <p>Everyone has lost their footing due to the pandemic. The academic community was unprepared, leaving both professors and students bewildered and without a sense of direction. The goal at the time was to overcome the calamity of educational discontinuity. Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 4 – Education goal aims “to ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all” relative to this SDG and the surge of the pandemic, digital divide become prominent, altering the course of educational landscape in all levels across public and private institutions. In the Bicol region, education was delivered in many various forms and variability, predicting the future through strategic foresight could propel the region to a transformed future. This paper discusses in detail the status of education in the region and the possible scenarios using Jim Dator’s Future Scenario Archetypes, Causal Layered Analysis and through Scenario Planning Plus. Four plausible scenarios have surfaced in this paper: STUG-nation of Education, Unstable and Disarray of Educational elements, Flowing-restrained Education, and ORAGON Education. It requires multiple drivers as examined through the PESTEL that includes political, economic, social, technological, environmental, legal aspects. This study proved useful in crafting and anticipating the future scenarios of Bicol Region’s education. Preliminary as it may, this study highlighted important building blocks of future scenarios through foresight methods. Dator’s framework was proved to be very useful in developing the four scenarios, the use of other future study tools will further amplify plausible scenarios for the education of Bicol region and beyond.</p> 2023-03-27T00:00:00+08:00 Copyright (c) 2023 Journal of Education, Management and Development Studies https://journals.cspc.edu.ph/index.php/jemds/article/view/175 ChatGPT and Academic Research: A Review and Recommendations Based on Practical Examples 2023-03-29T13:16:53+08:00 Mizanur Rahman [email protected] Harold Jan R Terano [email protected] Nafizur Rahman [email protected] Aidin Salamzadeh [email protected] Saidur Rahaman [email protected] <p>In the academic world, academicians, researchers, and students have already employed Large Language Models (LLMs) such as ChatGPT to complete their various academic and non-academic tasks, including essay writing, different formal and informal speech writing, summarising literature, and generating ideas. However,&nbsp; yet, it is a controversial issue to use ChatGPT in academic research. Recently, its impact on academic research and publication has been scrutinized. The fundamental objective of this study is to highlight the application of ChatGPT in academic research by demonstrating a practical example with some recommendations. Data for this study was gathered using published articles, websites, blogs, and visual and numerical artefacts. We have analyzed, synthesized, and described our gathered data using an "introductory literature review." The findings revealed that for the initial idea generation for academic scientific research, ChatGPT could be an effective tool. However, in the case of literature synthesis, citations, problem statements, research gaps, and data analysis, the researchers might encounter some challenges. Therefore, in these cases, researchers must be cautious about using ChatGPT in academic research. Considering the potential applications and consequences of ChatGPT, it is a must for the academic and scientific community to establish the necessary guidelines for the appropriate use of LLMs, especially ChatGPT,&nbsp; in research and publishing.</p> 2023-03-27T00:00:00+08:00 Copyright (c) 2023 Journal of Education, Management and Development Studies
