Currently the vocational education has been oriented to the educational processes in which focusing on the development of the student in order to ready to work professionally and ready to improve their self-potential in particular field work. Meanwhile, today and future jobs in various business sectors and industry are still growing and developing towards green jobs. If there is no counter and solution for this growth of green jobs, then it would create a new gap between the output’s competencies of vocational education and the qualification that needed by various business sector and industry. After studying some latest literatures, it was found that there is no any explicitly and concretely both concept and definition of green jobs in the vocational education curriculum (Curriculum 2013). Thus, this paper presents the urgent and such a challenge to change the philosophy of vocational education towards green jobs and ecology oriented.
Nowadays, drone technology is not only be used in commercial businesses but can also be utilized in a teaching-learning process, including in Islamic boarding school. This article will be discussed the development, performance, feasibility, and effectiveness of drone technology to be utilized as a learning media at Pesantren Hidayatullah Yogyakarta that is one of Islamic boarding school. The developed drone was the multicopter with a multi-rotor type using four rotors. This study was conducted with the development research approach developed by Alessi and Trollip and the descriptive research approach. This drone was applied in teaching-learning process at Pesantren Hidayatullah Yogyakarta. Data were obtained through drone’s testing and observation, interviews, questionnaires for the drone’s affectivity in teaching-learning process. The results of this study can be known that the drone performance is categorized as “Very Good” in terms of functionality and usability aspects. The drone feasibility in the term of material quality and its usefulness is included in the “Very Feasible” category. The drone as learning media has had significantly impact when it’s applied in learning process in extracurricular activities.
The study aimed to find out the design of instructional media which is suitable for practical learning of electric motor installation. It used needs analysis and front-end analysis which was carried out at Vocational High Schools in Yogyakarta. The result showed that the developing two-or three-dimensional media in the form of virtual laboratories was strongly recommended. Virtual laboratories was able to visualize the components according to real conditions. The concepts and work principles of electric motor installations were showed in the form of a two-or three-dimensional simulation. Virtual laboratories was expected to help virtual learning and train students’ independence and competence in practicing electric motor installation.
