“…In accordance with this view, the guidance process in the internship program at ex-LPTK universities emphasizes the maximization of the mentoring process by providing direct and/or remote supervisions about following materials:  Provide some consultations over internship working problems, such as encouraging the students to be more aware about their soft skills, as well as giving out any ideas or solutions when the students facing any problems related to the cognitive knowledge's. These are already in line with the solutions suggested in some previous literatures [15][16][17][19][20][21]23]  Provide some consultations on internship journal/report, to increase their academic and formal reading and writing capabilities.…”

Internship becomes a way to grow human resource capabilities in terms of competencies on knowledge or practical and soft skills. Higher education institutions like universities as the organizers of an internship program certainly have some roles to produce capable, intelligent and professional workforce. Therefore, it is undeniable that a good internship program in university is an important stage in the development of quality human resources. Our research aims to uncover the description of the system of organizing internships at university level, in order to obtain a comprehensive picture of the program's objectives in preparation for students to enter the workforce life. In this research, we also specifically portrayed the management of internships at the best ex-LPTK (Lembaga Pendidikan Tenaga Kependidikan) universities in Indonesia, as the institutions whose mission is to produce graduates as teaching staff/academics along with practitioners. We use mixed-method to earn our data from lecturers, superintendents and staffs of internship programs as well as the students at ex-LPTK universities. Overall, the internship programs at these universities have been managed with the orientation on the interests of students, have adopted the use of technology, and are evaluated routinely based on feedback from internal and external parties of the university. The lack of internship and the organization of the mentoring system conducted by the lecturers become the major deficiencies in organizing internships at the universities. These can be used as a basis to put on efforts to improve the internship system at the university level, especially in Indonesia.

“…Our previous studies have succeeded in mapping some of these problems from a variety of current literature. Some issues were proposed by employers' organizations [16][17][18][19][20][21], and others proposed by the students themselves [15][16][17][18][20][21][22]. Figure 1 contains the reference mapping.…”

“…Moreover, statistical analysis confirms the significance of this improvement. Conversely, the comparison group showed a lesser increase in practicality, indicating the efficacy of the e-monPrakerin model in enhancing monitoring efficiency (Deschaine & Jankens, 2017;Liviu & Ana-Andreea, 2013). These results align with indicators such as cost-effectiveness, ease of preparation, speed of supervision, accuracy of participant information, and communication smoothness.…”

This study presents a novel approach to addressing the challenges brought about by Industry 4.0 in vocational education, particularly within the context of Indonesia's evolving industrial landscape. With industries increasingly embracing digitalization and automation, traditional apprenticeship supervision methods have struggled to keep pace. In response, this research introduces the e-monPrakerin model, an electronic-based supervision system tailored for vocational high schools (Bahasa: Sekolah Menengah Kejuruan/SMK). Through rigorous evaluation employing a randomized control group pretest-posttest design, the study demonstrates the effectiveness of the e-monPrakerin model compared to conventional methods. Results reveal significant improvements in practicality and user satisfaction, with practicability scores soaring from 41.1% to 81.3% and user satisfaction scores escalating from 31.6% to 84.4% post-implementation. These outcomes underscore the e-monPrakerin model's ability to optimize apprenticeship monitoring, offering a cost-effective, user-friendly, and efficient solution for navigating the complexities of Industry 4.0. By leveraging information technology to bridge the gap between vocational education and industry demands, this research sheds light on the practical implications of digital monitoring solutions. Ultimately, the e-monPrakerin model represents a substantial advancement in vocational education, showcasing the efficacy of technology-driven approaches in enhancing monitoring efficiency and user satisfaction. This contribution adds valuable insights to the field, benefiting educators, policymakers, and stakeholders alike in their efforts to equip the workforce with the skills necessary to thrive in the era of Industry 4.0.

Purpose of the study: This study aims to find out the implementation of electronic monitoring of internship (e-monPrakerin) in industrial revolution 4.0 and society 5.0 and user satisfaction in using e-monPrakerin android-based in monitoring internship of vocational students. Methodology: The research method is a descriptive survey of the use of e-monPrakerin for electronic internship monitoring. Respondents are the teachers at Mondokan 1 Vocational High School as supervisors of the student internship program. The instrument used was the USE questionnaire for e-monPrakerin implementation. Data analysis techniques using descriptive analysis with percentages. Main Findings: The results showed that the use of an e-monPrakerin android-based system for electronic internship monitoring 1) good use (74.52%); 2) good ease of use (80.09%); 3) it's easy to learn (84.94%); 4) users are very satisfied (81.97%). Electronic internship monitoring using Android-based e-monPrakerin satisfies application users. Applications of this study: Implementation of research results can be used to monitor students' industrial work practices so that their implementation can be monitored effectively and efficiently. Novelty/Originality of this study: Facing the disruption era of the industrial revolution 4.0, all activities were carried out by utilizing information technology, at a lower cost and a high level of quality. The e-monPrakerin model was created to answer these challenges on the basis of information technology so that it can save costs, be more practical, faster, and of high quality.
