Abstract
The urgency to improve the quality of human resources is experiencing continuous escalation. Education holds the key to answer this demand. Social science is an important part of education that is very useful to provide students with various knowledge and skills. In Indonesia social science tends to be underestimated and many perceived social science as a lesson that only require students to memorize some subject matter without involving further and higher level of thinking. This paper tries to examine the attempt to improve social science’s effective learning process through the role of accountability’s strategic factors. This research is using quantitative approach through statistical test. The end results show that implementation of accountability in its strategic factors will eventually improve the quality of social science’s effective learning process and the graduates. In order to implement and operate an adequate system of accountability there are various requirements that must be met. Accountability must be thorough and integrated in the institution. Accountability also requires funds and sufficient time for their implementation to demonstrate the expected output. Hopefully, the implementation of accountability in its strategic factors will enhance the dignity, value, and position of social science in order to provide qualified human resources in Indonesia’s development.
