Abstract

During the current pandemic, education in Indonesia is less focused. Students who do not understand the use of virtual applications and parents who are busy with their work make learning using virtual applications a very constraint. These obstacles are not only felt by students and parents, but also by educators. The purpose of this research is to find a solution to get the right learning model or method for educators, students, and parents during the current covid-19 pandemic. Qualitative Research Methods are the choice in evaluating character education learning at a time like this. This study focuses on planning, organizing, implementing, and evaluating systems in this study. The data taken using triangulation and data processing using descriptive analysis. Studies related to learning management, educators have not planned a learning system that supports student learning. In the implementation of learning, it is necessary to have a guidebook related to character education so that during the evaluation of learning there is an evaluation of the progress of the students. Thus, success in learning character education can be done repeatedly.

Abstract

Background: Education plays a crucial role in improving a country's economy, particularly through entrepreneurship education. With rapid technological advancements, the traditional entrepreneurship model has evolved into technopreneurship, which focuses on digitalization and industrial transformation. However, many educational institutions lack a clear and adequate understanding of this concept, necessitating effective learning methods that enable students to grasp and apply the principles of technopreneurialism. Research Objectives: This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of a multimodal-based learning model in technopreneurship education to enhance entrepreneurial creativity among equality education students. Research Method: The research employs a qualitative case study method. Data collection was carried out through observation, documentation, and interviews with 10 participants, consisting of students and teachers from an equality education school. Research Findings: The findings indicate that the multimodal-based learning model successfully created a more interactive, communicative, and active learning environment. In the context of technopreneurship, this model was shown to increase students' confidence and communication skills, allowing them to engage in discussions and interact effectively. Research Conclusion: Multimodal-based learning effectively enhances students' creativity and multimodal literacy, which has a positive impact on the innovation, development of ideas, and products with high commercial value. The curriculum for technology-based entrepreneurship education must continuously adapt to the needs of the business market to fully leverage this potential. Research Novelty: The novelty of this research lies in the application of a multimodal-based learning model within the specific context of technopreneurship education in equality schools. This study demonstrates that this method not only improves technological literacy but also significantly boosts students' creativity and self-confidence in developing innovative business ideas.

Abstract

Background: Women's empowerment is an important component of sustainable development. However, gender inequality remains evident in Indonesia's agricultural sector. Although women account for about 36.7% of the agricultural workforce, their contributions are often viewed only as supporting roles rather than as primary actors. Women Farmers Groups (WFG) have emerged as grassroots organizations that promote women's empowerment through non-formal education programs, including skills development, entrepreneurship training, financial literacy, and awareness of women's rights. Research Urgency: Previous studies on WFG empowerment mainly emphasize economic outcomes, while psychological empowerment such as self-confidence and personal potential development has received limited attention. Understanding these aspects is important to strengthen women’s participation and independence in rural communities. Research Objectives: This study aims to analyze the empowerment process through non-formal education programs in WFG, focusing on strengthening women's self-confidence and personal potential, as well as identifying supporting and inhibiting factors. Research Method: This study employed a qualitative case study approach with data were collected through interviews with six informants, observations, and documentation analysis. Data analysis used Miles and Huberman’s interactive model combined with Longwe’s gender empowerment framework. Research Findings: The findings show that empowerment occurs through four stages: awareness building, capacity development, participation, and self-reliance. Non-formal education programs such as skills training, life skills education, entrepreneurship training, and literacy activities significantly increased members’ confidence and potential. Internal support from leadership and member commitment, along with external institutional support, strengthened the empowerment process despite challenges related to time limitations and diverse member capacities. Research Conclusion: Non-formal education within women farmers groups provides an effective approach to strengthening women’s psychological and social empowerment in rural agricultural communities. Research Novelty: This study highlights psychological empowerment through non-formal education within women farmers groups, a dimension rarely explored in previous research that mainly focused on economic outcomes.

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

The growing demand for skilled workers in Indonesia’s textile and garment industry highlights the importance of foundational competencies in vocational training. This study explored the role of literacy and numeracy skills in supporting garment production competencies among trainees in the Fashion Technology program at Balai Besar Pelatihan Vokasi dan Produktivitas Semarang. A qualitative approach was employed involving 15 trainees who completed literacy, numeracy, and competency assessments, supported by semi-structured interviews with three trainees representing different ability levels and two instructors. Assessment results showed that 53% of trainees demonstrated high literacy skills, 47% showed high numeracy skills, and 53% achieved high garment production competency. Interview findings indicated that literacy skills supported trainees’ ability to understand technical terminology, interpret work instructions, and follow production procedures, while numeracy skills facilitated accurate measurements, calculations, and technical decision-making. The findings suggest that literacy and numeracy function as important enabling factors in competency development. This study contributes to vocational education literature by providing empirical evidence on how foundational skills are embedded in nonformal fashion training and support workforce preparation in the garment industry.
