Abstract

In today's globalized world, proficiency in English has become essential for academic and professional success. This paper focuses on enhancing the English language skills of vocational students at SMKS Muhammadiyah 1 Kota Agung through TOEIC training. This community service program aims to improve students' language proficiency, particularly in listening and reading comprehension, which are vital for success in vocational fields. This program consisted of two sessions conducted at the school, involving 25 students from classes X to XII. The stages of the TOEIC training included providing an understanding of TOEIC materials, practice questions, organizing the TOEIC test, motivating students, correcting test results, providing practice resources, and recognizing high-achieving students. The results demonstrated that the TOEIC training activities effectively enhanced students' language skills, as evidenced by their improved listening and reading comprehension abilities. Furthermore, the activities contributed to the development of students' soft skills and received positive feedback from the participants. The findings highlight the importance of conducting such activities to prepare vocational students for future career opportunities and to navigate the global job market. Continued efforts in providing TOEIC training and English learning activities are crucial to ensure the success of vocational students in their chosen fields and to bridge the language gap in a globalized world.

Abstract

There has been an increasingly dominant use of technology in education institutions, yet limited studies holistically investigate the utilization of technological applications in tourism vocational high schools. This research explored the synchronous and asynchronous technological applications used and the challenges experienced by teachers and students of a tourism vocational high school in Indonesia, mainly in hotel and culinary online classrooms. This research employed a qualitative approach. Data were collected by observing four classes in two vocational schools in Yogyakarta and Bali. Interviews with five teachers and five students were also conducted on a voluntary basis. The findings indicate that teachers and students used various technological applications like Google Meet, Zoom, Microsoft Team, Cisco WebEx, Discord,and Skype for synchronous online learning. They also utilized more technological applications such as WhatsApp, YouTube, Google Classroom, Google Form, Telegram, Moodle, Screencast-O-Matic, Facebook, Instagram, Quizzes, Kahoot, and Twitterfor their asynchronous online learning. Both teachers and students faced technical, pedagogical, psychological, and personal challenges such as an unstable internet connection, a lack of technological literacy, incompatible gadgets, limited participation, work overload, demotivation, and a lack of focus on learning. To conclude, a number of technological applications were used to facilitate learning in hotel and culinary departments, even though there were many challenges that came with their usage. The results of this research can be used by relevant stakeholders preparing for future learning, especially in vocational high schools.

Abstract

This article addresses the limited access to language activities and the lack of emphasis on public speaking as a soft skill in vocational high school education. It emphasizes the significance of developing public speaking abilities for vocational students to thrive personally and professionally. The article proposes a social community service program that offers public speaking training for vocational students. The program's effectiveness was evaluated using a descriptive qualitative method and questionnaires. The feedback from students indicates positive outcomes in communication skills, confidence, and overall soft skills development. The article concludes that by addressing the deficiency in language activities and focusing on enhancing soft skills, specifically public speaking, vocational students can better equip themselves for the future and improve their prospects in the real world.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the English language needs of National Narcotics Board personnel in the context of international cooperation and to identify gaps between their current English proficiency and global professional communication demands. The study employed a qualitative design involving ten personnel from various work units, with five participants selected for in-depth interviews. Data were collected through questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. The questionnaire gathered information on frequency of English use, self-assessed proficiency, and perceived professional demands, while interviews explored experiences and communication challenges in international contexts. Data were analyzed using qualitative thematic analysis to identify patterns of language needs and competency gaps. The findings indicate that English is primarily required for formal professional tasks, including participation in international meetings, report writing, document comprehension, and official correspondence. Speaking, formal writing, and mastery of technical terminology emerged as priority needs and major challenges. The study concludes that a clear gap exists between current competencies and professional communication standards. These findings highlight the importance of aligning institutional language development initiatives with international operational demands to strengthen effective global collaboration REFERENCES Armnazi, M., & Alegasan, M.
