Abstract

This study examines the impact of industry-school partnerships and project-based learning on the work readiness of vocational high school graduates in Jakarta. A quantitative research design was employed, utilizing a survey distributed to 150 graduates from various vocational schools. The survey measured perceptions of industry-school partnerships, project-based learning, and work readiness using a Likert scale. The data analysis, conducted with SPSS version 25, revealed that both industry-school partnerships and project-based learning have a significant positive relationship with work readiness. Industry-school partnerships were found to enhance technical skills and industry-specific knowledge, while project-based learning fostered critical thinking, problem-solving, and teamwork. The combined effect of these two factors accounted for 29% of the variance in work readiness. The findings suggest that integrating these approaches into vocational education can significantly improve graduates' employability and better prepare them for the workforce. This study provides valuable insights for policymakers and educators aiming to improve vocational education outcomes in Jakarta and beyond.

Abstract

The rapid expansion of online marketplaces has created significant opportunities for entrepreneurs and small businesses to access broader markets and improve business performance. However, the ability of sellers to achieve sustainable performance is influenced by the quality of platform management and the support mechanisms provided by marketplace operators. This study aims to examine the impact of platform governance and seller support on seller performance among online marketplace sellers in West Java. This research employed a quantitative approach using a survey method involving 125 online marketplace sellers as respondents. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire with a five-point Likert scale and analyzed using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 25. The data analysis included validity testing, reliability testing, classical assumption testing, multiple linear regression analysis, t-test, F-test, and coefficient of determination analysis. The results indicate that both platform governance and seller support have a positive and significant effect on seller performance. Platform governance shows a significant influence, demonstrating that transparent policies, transaction security, and fair platform management contribute to improved seller outcomes. Meanwhile, seller support has a stronger positive influence, indicating that training programs, technical assistance, marketing support, and communication facilities play important roles in enhancing sellers’ capabilities. Furthermore, the coefficient of determination (R² = 0.520) shows that platform governance and seller support explain 52.0% of the variation in seller performance. This study highlights that marketplace providers should develop integrated governance systems and comprehensive seller support programs to strengthen seller competitiveness and promote sustainable digital commerce development, particularly in the West Java marketplace ecosystem.

Abstract

Human capital has become a fundamental concept in explaining economic development, organizational competitiveness, innovation capability, and sustainable growth. However, the evolution of research themes, intellectual structures, and emerging directions within human capital studies remains fragmented across different disciplines. This study aims to examine the development and research landscape of human capital through a bibliometric analysis approach. Data were collected from the Scopus database using relevant search terms related to human capital, and the retrieved publications were analyzed using bibliometric techniques, including performance analysis, citation analysis, co-authorship analysis, keyword co-occurrence analysis, and thematic evolution mapping. The findings reveal that human capital research has experienced significant growth and has developed into a multidisciplinary field involving economics, management, entrepreneurship, education, innovation, and sustainability. The citation analysis identifies influential studies focusing on entrepreneurship, psychological capital, strategic management, and sustainable competitive advantage, while the keyword analysis demonstrates a transition from traditional themes such as education, employment, and productivity toward emerging themes including innovation, intellectual capital, social capital, and sustainable development. Furthermore, collaboration analysis highlights the dominant contribution of institutions and countries from North America, Europe, and Asia in shaping global human capital research. This study contributes to the literature by providing a comprehensive understanding of the intellectual evolution of human capital research and identifying future research opportunities related to digital capabilities, green human capital, and adaptive workforce development.
