Abstract

Mathematical modeling is a key competency in vocational mathematics education because it supports contextual problem solving, yet students still have difficulty applying it. This study aimed to analyze the need for developing digital student worksheets (E-LKPD) to support the mathematical modeling skills of tenth-grade vocational high school students. A descriptive quantitative survey design was used with 30 respondents. Data were collected through a 20-item, five-point Likert-scale questionnaire supported by observation and were analyzed using percentages. The results showed that the need for digital worksheets was very high (85.33%), including the need for an attractive and readable display (86.67%) and interactive features (86.00%). Smartphone ownership reached 92.00% and 86.67% of the students used the internet to search for learning materials, whereas laptop ownership was only 36.67%. In mathematical modeling, the need for practice in solving problems using mathematical models was the highest (90.67%). It is concluded that digital worksheets should be accessible through smartphones, interactive, and provide stepwise modeling activities from understanding the problem to interpreting the results.
