Abstract

This study assesses the effectiveness of Japanese language training programmes within Indonesia’s vocational education system, with a focus on their alignment with labour market demands. As Japan faces workforce shortages, Indonesia has developed vocational language training to prepare candidates for employment abroad. Despite these initiatives, many programmes still prioritise grammar-based instruction over communicative and cultural competence. A descriptive, quantitative approach, utilising Likert-scale questionnaires, was complemented by semi-structured interviews and document analysis. The results indicate that, while institutional management and resources are adequate, curriculum relevance, practical communication skills, and collaboration with industry partners remain limited. The findings underscore the importance of revising curricula, enhancing teacher capabilities, and strengthening partnerships with Japanese employers to enhance employability outcomes. These implications extend to the broader development of Indonesia’s vocational education system, emphasising the need for responsive, industry-oriented training.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze how national policies conceptualize inclusion through nonformal learning pathways and evaluates their operational effectiveness. It examines the role of nonformal education as a strategic tool for social inclusion in Indonesia, focusing on the persistent gap between symbolic policy commitments and transformative educational practices. Using a qualitative approach with a critical analytical literature review design, data were gathered through systematic analysis of policy texts, academic publications, and institutional reports. Thematic content analysis was used to identify patterns in discourse and policy orientation. Findings indicate that current policies prioritize vocational and administrative objectives while neglecting community-based inclusive learning practices. Structural fragmentation, limited state support, and the absence of an inclusive pedagogical framework weaken implementation. This study underscores the urgency of integrating nonformal education into the national inclusivity framework, supported by measurable indicators and cross-sectoral coordination. The uniqueness of this study lies in bridging critical pedagogy and inclusivity theory to position nonformal education as a transformative and policy-relevant domain in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of learning independence on learning achievement and learning styles of students enrolled in the Package C Equivalency Education program at PKBM Tunas Mekar. This study uses a quantitative approach with a correlational design. The research subjects involved 58 Package C students. Data were collected through questionnaires and documentation, then analyzed using Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) and linear regression. The results show that learning independence has a significant effect on the learning achievement of students. However, learning independence does not have a direct effect on learning styles. Overall, learning independence plays a role in supporting the smoothness and effectiveness of the learning process in equivalency education. The novelty of this study lies in its empirical study of learning independence in non-formal education, particularly in the Package C Equivalency Education program at PKBM. The findings of this study are expected to contribute to the development of learning that encourages the improvement of learning independence among students.

Abstract

Background: Women's empowerment is a strategic aspect of sustainable development, yet in Indonesia's agricultural sector there is still a significant gender gap. Although women constitute 36.7% of Indonesia's agricultural labour, their contributions remain undervalued and perceived as auxiliary support rather than recognized as primary agricultural workers. Women farmers' groups (Kelompok Wanita Tani/KWT) have emerged as grassroots organizations with substantial potential to advance women's empowerment through non-formal education programs that transcend agricultural productivity to encompass entrepreneurial skills, financial management, and women's rights awareness. Research Urgency: Previous research on women's empowerment in KWT has primarily focused on economic aspects, psychological empowerment dimensions such as self-confidence and personal potential development have received insufficient attention. KWT Bunga Al Barokah in Ketapang Village addresses this gap by implementing comprehensive non-formal education programs including skills training, life skills education, entrepreneurship training, and literacy activities to increase members' confidence and self-potential. Research Objectives: This study analyzes the empowerment process, efforts to strengthen self-confidence and self-potential, and identifies supporting and inhibiting factors of women's empowerment through non-formal education programs aimed at increasing self-confidence and self-potential among women in KWT Bunga Al Barokah. Research Method: This case study research employed a descriptive qualitative approach utilizing data collection techniques including interviews with six informants, observation, and documentation analysis. Research Findings: Result shows that women's empowerment through non-formal education programs including skills training, life skills education, entrepreneurship training, and literacy activities in KWT Bunga Al Barokah successfully enhanced members' confidence and potential through four systematic stages. This process was supported by internal factors such as democratic leadership, high member commitment, and effective communication, alongside external factors including institutional support and socio-cultural changes, despite encountering obstacles including time constraints, diversity in member capacity, and traditional community perspectives. Research Conclusion: This study concludes that non-formal education programs implemented within women farmers' groups constitute an effective approach for women's empowerment in agricultural communities, successfully increasing members' self-confidence and unlocking their potential through systematic implementation stages. Research Novelty: This study has novelty in its focus on women's empowerment through non-formal education programs to increase self-confidence and self-potential, unlike previous studies that emphasized food security and economic aspects. Additionally, this research employs dual analytical frameworks (Miles & Huberman's interactive model and Longwe's gender analysis) to comprehensively understand empowerment program outcomes. The unique research setting at KWT Bunga Al Barokah, characterized by internal empowerment agents and absence of similar research in Ketapang Village, Susukan Sub-district, Semarang Regency, further distinguishes this study.
