Abstract

Global culinary trends indicate a significant increase in demand for plant-based cuisine in response to health, sustainability, and ethical concerns. This creates an urgent need for professionals competent in plant-based culinary processing. This article analyzes the design of plant-based culinary training programs at Vocational High Schools (SMK) in Indonesia to enhance student competency to meet the needs of the modern culinary industry. The method used is descriptive qualitative, based on a literature review and curriculum documents. The analysis reveals competency gaps, particularly in aspects of plant-based product innovation, advanced processing techniques, in-depth nutritional literacy, and environmental awareness. Recommendations for program development include the integration of technical skills, creativity, entrepreneurship, and an understanding of sustainability to address global market dynamics. The implementation of a holistic program is expected to increase the competitiveness of vocational high school graduates in the culinary sector, which is increasingly shifting toward healthy and environmentally friendly food options

Abstract

The limited mastery of welding symbols among students is a significant challenge in the instruction of basic welding and metal fabrication techniques, which adversely affects the quality of the resulting products. This study aims to develop a flipbook-based e-module to improve the understanding of welding symbols, with its effectiveness assessed through observation, feedback, and testing. The research utilizes the ADDIE development model (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation). An experimental design was employed, comparing an experimental group with a control group, consisting of 72 students from the Welding Engineering and Metal Fabrication program in grade 10th. The findings indicate that the flipbook-based e-module significantly enhanced the mastery of welding symbols. This research highlights the positive impact of integrating technology into education, reinforcing the importance of innovative teaching methods to improve learning outcomes in the field of welding engineering

Abstract

Career decision-making challenges remain a critical issue in vocational education, particularly at the secondary level, where many students choose majors that do not align with their interests and abilities. This condition highlights the need for early career guidance to help students map their career paths and develop their competencies appropriately. This study aims to develop a vocational career guidance module for Social Work students; to determine the validity of the module based on expert evaluation; to analyze the validity and reliability of the test instruments; and to examine the effectiveness, efficiency, practicality, and implementability of the module. This research employed the ADDIE R&D model involving 60 tenth-grade students of SMK Negeri 5 Samarinda, divided into experimental and control groups. The results indicate that the module is highly feasible, with material expert validation at 94% and media expert validation at 91%. The test instrument demonstrates strong quality, with 30 of 33 items deemed valid and a Cronbach’s Alpha reliability of 0.925. The module is proven to be highly effective (91.6%), efficient (89.6%), and practical (93.8%), with an implementation rate of 86%. In addition, teacher and student responses reached 90.8% (excellent category). Statistical analysis confirms significant improvement in students’ career decision-making skills, with tcount = 13.396 > ttable = 2.002, Sig. = 0.000, and an N-gain score of 0.72964 (high category). These results show that the developed module effectively enhances the career decision-making skills of Social Work vocational students.
