The type of research conducted is the Borg and Gall Research and Development model modified into five stages, using a qualitative approach. Data were collected through questionnaires and interviews with Teaching Factory managers and validated using technical and source triangulation. The data analysis technique was carried out using qualitative descriptive analysis of the Miles and Huberman model.
