Concept of e-mon prakerin model for internship monitoring in vocational high school

Internship is one way to improve the ability of workers in the industry. Problems that exist in apprenticeship monitoring have not been effective. This study aims to 1) review the effective management of internship, 2) describe the improved quality of learning in vocational high school toward industry 4.0. 3) illustrate the conceptual model of e-monprakerin in vocational high school. The management of internship consists of planning, organizing, actuating and controlling. This research is qualitative descriptive research based on the literature as an effort to maximize the management of internship in vocational high schools to support the end goals of the industry 4.0. The industry 4.0 covers the automation and digital data exchange in the industrial technology including cyber-physical systems, the internet of thing, cloud computing and cognitive computing. The results show that the internship management has found the weaknesses in some aspects that are planning process, organization, actuation and control. Conceptually, the inadequacies of the internship monitoring can be minimized through the additional elements of e-monprakerin.

Study of Implementation of Project Based Learning in Mechanical Engineering Study Program of Vocational High School

This study aims to describe the implementation of project-based learning in Vocational High School (VHS) of Mechanical Engineering Expertise Competency in terms of planning, implementation, evaluation, and constraints. The study was carried out using qualitative descriptive methods. Research respondents were vocational teachers in the Mechanical Engineering Expertise Competency of the State VHS of Technology and Engineering in Malang City. The research data was collected using in-depth interview techniques, observation, and analysis of learning documents which were then analyzed qualitatively. The results show that vocational teachers have implemented PjBL both in terms of planning, implementation, and evaluation of learning. In projects planning the teachers have not involved the industries, the projects are relatively simple, so products of project cannot be utilized and not sold. The syntax of PjBL has not been seen in the implementation plan of learning but the implementation of practical learning at the workshop/laboratotium conducted by the teachers indicates the implementation of the PjBL syntax. Evaluation of learning outcomes in PjBL includes evaluation of processes and products. The main obstacle faced by teachers lies in determining the project, the preparation of the PjBL syntax, the limited practicum facilities in the school workshop/laboratorium, and the limited time for practicum.

Improving Students` Critical Thinking Through E-Book on Project-Based Learning in Vocational High School

This study aims to describe the use of e-book based on project based learning in improving students' critical thinking in inventory materials in VHS. This type of research is a quantitative descriptive study with a case study method. The sample of this research used 30 students in SMK Batik 1 Surakarta. The sampling technique uses simple random sampling technique, while the data collection technique used is essay test. The essay question is made in accordance with the indicators of critical thinking, namely analyzing, evaluating, and creating. The results showed that before using e-book based on project based learning only 8.3% of students were able to analyze, 50% evaluate, and 40% created. However, after using the e-book, students who were able to analyze increased to 55%, evaluated 93.3%, and created 76.7%. any as 10% have enough critical thinking. So, the use of e-book based on Project Based Learning can increase students' critical thinking.

The Effect of Laboratory Facilities and Teacher Competence on Student Learning Outcomes in Vocational High School (VHS)

Learning in VHS cannot be separated from teacher’s role as an educator. Besides that, the laboratory is necessary to support the life skill, critical and creative thinking, collaborating, communicating, and literacy. It can be concluded that there is a strong relationship between laboratory infrastructure (X1) and teacher competence (X2) on student learning outcomes (Y). The case study in this research known results as follows: (1) there are significantly impact between variable X1 and Y, (2) there are significantly impact between variable X2 and Y, (3) there are there are significantly impact between laboratory facilities and teacher competence with student’s learning outcomes.

MENGUKUR EFEKTIFITAS PROSES PEMBELAJARAN DISCOVERY LEARNING PADA POKOK BAHASAN USAHA DAN ENERGI

Physics learning in Vocational High School is considered ineffective, this is due to the lack of media and teaching materials during the learning activities. In addition, the ability of teachers to use the same methods and models, asking for learning in the classroom becomes monotonous and increases the knowledge and skills of students. The purpose of this research is to measure the effectiveness of learning with the Discovery Learning model on work and energy material through the AABTLT with SAS assessment system. The method used is descriptive method. The research was conducted at the Muhammadiyah 2 Cibiru Vocational School, with the sample of the study being 41 students from class X RPL. The results of the study show that there is a relationship between learning design that has been prepared with the achievement of learning by students. This research concludes that the use of the Discovery Learning model can measure the effectiveness of learning which shows the average achievement of each step of the activity exceeds 50%, where in the preliminary activities reached 82.14%, essences activities 71.83% and closing activities 61.31%

The Indicators of Instructional Design for E- learning in Indonesian Vocational High Schools

Teaching a subject in Vocational High School (VHS) needs specific strategy, which is part of instructional design. Recently the VHSs use computer base in instructional to deliver theory and practice subject. The computer will help teachers to make media as a part of instruction and using a system of instruction, which is usually called as e learning in instruction. Teachers need skill for operating and planning e learning as an instructional media. To make easier to deliver some subjects, the instructional design for e learning should be well prepared by teacher. This means that the teacher is required to know the model of instructional design, which is suitable for e learning for VHS and what are the indicators that are needed in implementing instructional design for e learning.Study exploration and references collection were used to find the model of instructional design for e learning. Focus group discussion (FGD) was used to define the good model for instructional design in e learning including to find the indicators, which cover the model. In this case 5 experts from 5 universities and 5 experts from the profession of information and communication technologies (ICTs) were involved. Further, the respondents that consist of 20 teachers and 165 students were used to define the good indicators in each aspect.The study founds the draft model of instructional design for e learning in VHS. The model has four aspects, including: 1) needs analysis, 2) selection and order of competence, 3) instructional development and 4) learning evaluation. The four aspects have five indicators in each.
