Implementation Of Management Information Systems To Improve Educational Quality In Secondary Schools

Abstract

This study aims to thoroughly examine the implementation of management information systems (MIS) through information media such as the school website and Dapodik at SMA Muhammadiyah Mlati, as well as its contribution to improving the quality of education. The research employs a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques including interviews, observations, and documentation. The findings reveal that the integration of the school website and Dapodik has enhanced administrative efficiency, information transparency, and the quality of communication between the school, teachers, students, and parents. The school website facilitates real-time access to information, while Dapodik supports accurate and structured academic data management. Moreover, the use of MIS aids teachers in planning adaptive and responsive learning processes. Staff training and task redistribution based on monitoring outcomes have also had a positive impact on work motivation and a more productive school environment. The implications of this research suggest that other schools may adopt similar strategies with the support of continuous training and strengthened digital infrastructure. MIS has proven to be a strategic instrument in the transformation of educational management that is modern, collaborative, and data-driven, in line with national policy directions to improve the quality of education in the digital era.
