ABSTRACT 

Vocational High Schools play a crucial role in preparing graduates to enter the workforce. However, many Vocational High School graduates continue to face challenges in achieving optimal work readiness. These issues highlight the need for further research to identify the factors that influence students’ employability. This study aims to test a theoretical model examining the influence of career planning, self-adjustment, and need for achievement on the employability of Vocational High School students. The research employs a quantitative approach, utilizing Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) for data analysis. The participants comprised 360 Grade XII students from Vocational High School "X", selected through a cluster random sampling technique. Data were collected using standardized scales that measured employability, career planning, self-adjustment, and the need for achievement. The analysis was conducted using SEM-PLS with the SmartPLS software, version 4.1.1.1. The results indicate that the proposed model—where employability is influenced by career planning, self-adjustment, and need for achievement—demonstrates a good fit with the empirical data. Further analysis reveals a highly significant positive effect of career planning on employability, as well as significant positive effects of both self-adjustment and need for achievement on employability. Based on these findings, the study concluded that the model is valid and applicable for explaining the factors that influence the employability of vocational high school students. The results support the importance of fostering career planning, adaptability, and achievement motivation to enhance students' readiness for the workforce.

ABSTRACT

Practical skills are competencies that are needed by SMK graduates to improve the work readiness of SMK students. Learning achievement of practical skills can be improved by selecting the right learning model. The purpose of this study was to determine the application of the Explicit Instruction learning model for students of the Light Vehicle Engineering Skills Competency Vocational School (TKR) and to find out how much increased practical learning achievement of TKR Vocational School students after the application of the Explicit Instruction model. The research model is classroom action research (Classroom Action Research). The subjects of this study were students of SMK Muhammadiyah Bambanglipuro TKR Expertise Competence, amounting to 25 students. The data collection technique used was a test with a practical performance sheet instrument. The practice performance sheet is validated by industry experts. After being applied, the results of the practical exam assessment were analyzed descriptively. The results showed that the Explicit Instruction learning model could be applied well by students of SMK Muhammadiyah Bambanglipuro TKR Expertise Competence. After the implementation of the Explicit Instruction learning model, there was an increase in the average score of the competency aspect of practical skill achievement in each research cycle. The aspect of work preparation in the first cycle is 1.44, the second cycle is 2.32 and the third cycle is 2.88. The competency aspect of work knowledge in the first cycle is 1.64, the second cycle is 2.24 and the third cycle 3. While the work skill competency aspect in the first cycle is 1.56, the second cycle is 1.8 and the third cycle is 3.16.

ABSTRACT

Technological developments in this modern era require changes in educational approaches to ensure that students have skills that are relevant to the needs of industry, especially electric vehicles. The research aims to develop an industrial integrated electric vehicle learning tool and test its feasibility. This research design adopts Richey and Klein's research and development (R&D) stages with development and internal validation stages. The research objects were carried out at four vocational schools in the Special Region of Yogyakarta and the Automotive Jogjakarta Center (OJC) with research subjects being teachers, experts and industrial practitioners. The resulting research is the competency aspects needed by the electric vehicle industry and the design of electric vehicle learning aids/Electric Vehicle Learning Simulator (EVLIS) that are feasible and ready to be made into product prototypes. EVLIS can help improve the attitude competency, knowledge and skills of electric vehicle technology for vocational school students. Not only that, the development of EVLIS involving the electric vehicle industry can strengthen collaboration/partnership between the industrial world and vocational schools.

ABSTRACT

Vocational schools need to start addressing unemployment right away since it is a serious issue. Work readiness is prepared with the demands of the industrial world in mind. The objective of this study is to create and evaluate industry-based integrated learning models for EVL+i, or electric vehicle auxiliary, subjects. The research and development (R&D) design used was Richey and Klein's design. This research involved 34 students, 6 teachers from the automotive engineering department of SMK Muhammadiyah 2 Tempel, and 4 professionals from the automotive industry. Practical performance tests and interviews were used as data collection methods. Based on the research results, it can be said that the EVL+i model was successfully developed and implemented in three stages of research. The EVL+i model can improve 6 aspects of competence of automotive vocational students, namely aspects of integrity competence, cooperation, discipline, work area knowledge, work completeness and time efficiency. The six aspects of competence have increased from the category of less good to very good with an average score of 1.82 in the limited trial and 3.72 in the extended trial.
