Student’s Regional Potential-based Project: TEFA for Schools in Low Industrial Areas

One of the ways to get a link and match between Vocational High School graduates and the working world is by implementing a teaching factory (TEFA). Teaching Factory aims at aligning teaching and training in schools with the needs of modern industrial practices. However, not all schools can implement it optimally, especially those in low-industrial areas. This is one of the reasons why many Vocational High School graduates are not able to compete in the labor market. One of the solutions is to get students’ project assignments based on the potential of their region. Therefore, this study aims to develop a teaching factory model integrated with student’s regional potential-based project (SRPP). This research and development (R&D) employs the Borg and Gall model, which consists of four main stages: need analysis, model development, model validation by experts through a focus group discussion and a pilot study, and model evaluation. The results show that the teaching factory model for vocational schools in low-industrial areas is valid and can be widely tested.

Design Of Digital Learning Media for Optimizing Automatic Control System Learning with PLTS Power Supply on Traffic Lights at Bali Land Transportation Polytechnic

Becoming an educator is more challenging than imagined because educators must be adept at managing the classroom to ensure that learning activities are not repetitive or similar. If an educator relies on just one or two teaching methods repeatedly, it can make learning monotonous. It is important to consider a variety of teaching methods, such as group discussions, project assignments, problem-solving, simulations, or the use of diverse learning media. The education system in state vocational schools under the Ministry of Transportation implements a boarding school education system. In the boarding school education system, where students, in this case, Taruna, are involved in activities throughout the day, the learning process inside the classroom becomes less effective. Therefore, it is crucial to introduce engaging and effective learning media. The use of digital learning media is an appropriate method to address this issue. By utilizing digital learning media, it can enhance students' interest, clarify learning materials, provide variation in teaching methods, and involve students in the learning process. This research aims to design effective learning media for the SKO course by utilizing PLTS technology as a power supply for APILL in the learning process at the Land Transportation Polytechnic. In this research, the main focus is on students, the development of digital learning media, and the implementation of automatic control systems.
