Abstract

There are gaps between vocational engineering curricula and industry competency needs, especially in information and communication technology (ICT) competency. However, limited studies have been conducted on factors affecting ICT competency among vocational engineering students, particularly attitudes toward ICT utilization. Thus, this study aims to determine the attitude and the relationship toward ICT competency among vocational engineering students based on the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology II (UTAUT II). It was conducted in Higher Education Institutions in West Sumatera, Indonesia. It was a survey study with a quantitative method that used one set of questionnaires to collect data. Respondents are 805, covering first-year and last-year students enrolled in those institutions by purposive sampling. Data were analyzed descriptively for mean and standard deviation, and inferentially by employing Pearson Correlation. Findings showed that the ICT competency among vocational engineering students was lower than their attitude toward ICT utilization. A high attitude only is not enough to support the competency. Thus, this study can be used as a guide by the relevant authorities such as the Ministry of Education Affairs to take action to enhance the ICT competency among vocational engineering students from other aspects.

Abstract

New voters play an important role in the election because as many as 35-40% of all voters are new voters. In this way, the number of first-time voters is very large, so that citizens' rights to exercise their right to vote should not be insignificant as a result of unexpected mistakes, for example, do not let them already have the right to vote and not be able to exercise their right to vote because they are not registered or there are still many errors in exercise their right to vote, etc.Dian Andalas Private High School is located in Komp. Unand Ulu Gadut. There are 70 students from Dian Andalas Private High School who are in the category of beginner voters in the 2024 elections. There are still many students who do not understand the importance of voting rights in general elections and do not know the procedures for granting voting rights at polling stations.The aim to be achieved from this service activity is to provide insight and improve skills for Dian Andalas Private High School students in their participation in the upcoming 2024 elections.The output target that will be achieved is the students of the Dian Andalas Private High School, by carrying out this activity, it is hoped that the students of the Dian Andalas Private High School, Padang, will participate in the general election and know the procedures for voting in the general election.
