Akuntabilitas Pelaksanaan Program Penerimaan Peserta Didik Baru (PPDB) Online di Provinsi Sumatera Utara

Abstract

This research is based on the problem of implementing online PPDB which is not running in an accountable and transparent manner. The implementation of the PPDB is accounted for by the North Sumatra Provincial Education Office which is the locus of the research. This research uses qualitative research methods to describe the accountability of online PPDB implementation in North Sumatra Province. The data collection process is through interviews, documentation, observation, and relevant literature studies which are presented through data reduction techniques, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The research results are described through Ellwod's theory which suggests that public accountability consists of honesty accountability, legal accountability and process accountability. The research results illustrate that honesty accountability is not carried out openly to the user community, program implementation is not according to the predetermined schedule and the program implementation process is not functioning well in supporting the PPDB implementation activity process.
