Analisis kerjasama sekolah dengan dunia usaha dan dunia industri dalam meningkatkan mutu lulusan sekolah menengah kejuruan

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the school's collaboration with industry and business community (DU/DI) in improving the quality of Vocational High School (SMK) graduates. This study applies a qualitative descriptive approach of case study design at SMK Negeri 3 Jayapura. The researcher as the key instrument of the research conducted an in-depth interview with principals, teachers/public relations, students, school committees, supervisors as well as industry and business community (DU/DI). Participatory observation and document analysis were also utilized in order to support the data gathering process. The techniques for validating the data were gathered by extending the time of observation, peer discussion and triangulation. The data was analyzed qualitatively by means of data reduction, data display, and drawing conclusions/verification. The results of this study indicate that the school's collaboration with industry and business community (DU/DI) in improving the quality of SMK Negeri 3 Jayapura is favorable but still needs some improvement. It still requires some adjustments in term of alignment of the data-based industry-based curriculum which involves industry and business community (DU/DI) from its early establishment, the presence of industrial teachers which has not yet touched the substance of industrial practice and the absorption of graduates is still limited to MoUs bound by contracts and high-achieving graduates.

Perancangan Portal Information Student Marketing untuk meningkatkan keterserapan Lulusan Siswa SMK di dunia Industri berskala Nasional berbasis Website

“…Regulasi tersebut memberikan catatan penting bahwa keberadaan SMK bahkan lulusannya diharapkan dapat mendukung pertumbuhan ekonomi nasional yang dapat bekerja pada sektor DU/DI saat ini dan dalam menghadapi era global.

Collaboration of Educational Institutions and Industry: Realizing Teaching Factory for Dedicated and Integrity-driven Human Resources

“…The implementation of collaboration includes Memoranda of Understanding (MoU) with industries, curriculum alignment, industry visits and benchmarking, guest teachers, internships, On-the-Job Training (OJT), and the establishment of teaching factories. However, one of the practices of SMK and industry collaboration was found to be suboptimal in the research by Munthe and Mataputun (2021).

The Influence of School Principal Leadership on Teacher Performance in Private Vocational Schools in Biak Numfor Regency, Papua Province

“…The mandate of the teacher regulation above is expected to be a reference for every teacher in carrying out their duties, both at school and outside school, Law Number 20 of 2003 Article 18 states that vocational education is a secondary education that prepares students to work in certain fields (Pandipa, 2020). The presence of SMK is expected to prepare students: (1) enter certain jobs and develop a professional attitude, (2) have the provision and ability to choose a career, be able to compete, and be able to develop themselves, (3) become an independent middle-level workforce and/or fill the current and future needs of DU/DI (Munthe & Mataputun, 2021). What has been outlined in the regulation requires educators to work well, so that their graduates can benefit many people.…”

“…However, in several references there are still many teachers who have not carried out their duties properly, such as the results of research reported by (Helmi, 2015) that teacher performance shown in planning, implementation and evaluation is categorized as still lacking, even the results of the study (Munthe & Mataput, 2015). (Munthe & Mataputun, 2021) said that in general, SMK negeri 3 Jayapura has collaborated with Du/Di in improving the quality of graduates, but not maximally. The results of this empirical study provide a note that principals and teachers are not optimal in preparing, implementing the learning process expected of every SMK graduate, namely schools need to establish partnerships with the Business and Industrial World (DUDI).…”
