Abstract

Universitas Terbuka (UT), has decided that it is a must for its Regional Center (known as UPBJJ) to conduct face-to-face tutorials for the undergraduate students pursuing Educational Course for Elementary School Teachers. These tutorials contribute up to 50 % of the student’s final grade. Due to this huge contribution to the final grade, these tutorials must be managed in a proper manner. One of the important step that needs to be carefully carried out in organizing tutorials is the recruitment of the tutors. UPBJJ has been authorized to recruit candidates for tutors not only lectures from universities, but also teachers from schools or practitioners from other institutions; although lectures are still the more preferred ones. At UPBJJ-Bogor (one of the 37 UT’s Regional Centers), once the candidates have passed the administrative selection process, these candidates will be sent for a training course for tutors. The curriculum of this training course includes: Introduction to UT and UPBJJ Bogor, Distance Learning System, Tutorial Models, Tutorial Planning Skills, Tutorial Improvement Skills, and Tutorial Evaluation Skills. These selected tutors will then be deployed in their assigned study groups. During the tutorial period, tutors’ performance will be assessed by their own students. By analizing the feedback from students, it was found that there is actually no significant performance difference among the tutors from universities (lectures) and those from non-universities: schools or other institutions (teachers or practitioners). Hence, in the future recruitment events, UPBJJ Bogor may also enlist its candidates for tutors from non-universities sector: the schools or other institutions.
