In the 21st century, globalization and digital transformation significantly changed patterns of life, including the education sector in Indonesia. Vocational schools were expected to prepare students to compete in the global market; however, they continued to encounter challenges in improving the quality and relevance of learning. This study aimed to develop and evaluate flipbook-based learning media integrated with Augmented Reality (AR) to strengthen students’ engagement, conceptual understanding, and readiness for the digital era. The research employed a pre-experimental method with a one-group pretest–posttest design involving 149 vocational school students in West Java. Data analysis showed that the application of the VocAR-Flip model resulted in an N-gain score of 74.3%, which indicated a high level of effectiveness in improving students’ academic achievement and conceptual understanding. The novelty of this research lies in combining the practicality of flipbook media with the immersive features of AR, producing an interactive learning model that had not been widely applied in vocational education in Indonesia. The findings contribute to the advancement of educational technology by offering an innovative and scalable model that supports Industry 4.0 skills. Furthermore, this research provides benefits for policy reference by highlighting the need to integrate AR-based learning media into vocational school curricula to enhance competitiveness in the global workforce.

This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of the Example/Non-Example cooperative learning model in improving student learning outcomes in the subject Fundamentals of Design, Modelling, and Building Information (DPIB) for Grade X students at SMK Negeri 1 Percut Sei Tuan during the 2024/2025 academic year. The research was driven by low student achievement, with over 50% failing to meet the school’s minimum passing grade of 70, highlighting the need for more engaging and student-cantered learning strategies. The Example/Non-Example model was chosen for its potential to foster critical thinking through visual analysis and collaborative learning. This research employed Classroom Action Research (CAR), consisting of two cycles with the stages of planning, action, observation, and reflection. The participants were 31 Grade X DPIB students. Data was collected using validated multiple-choice tests with 22 items in Cycle I and 23 items in Cycle II. The findings revealed an increase in the average score from 75.51 in Cycle I to 80.96 in Cycle II, representing a 26.08% improvement. These results indicate that the Example/Non-Example model is effective in enhancing student achievement and can serve as an alternative instructional strategy for improving competency attainment in vocational subjects.

Rapid advancements in hybrid vehicle technology demand significant adjustments in vocational education to equip students with relevant competencies. This study investigates the effectiveness of a hybrid motorcycle prototype as an innovative learning media to improve student learning outcomes in vocational automotive education. Employing a pre-experimental one-group pretest-post-test design, the research involved 30 Grade XI Automotive Engineering students at SMK Negeri 1 Cisarua. Participants underwent a pretest, followed by four prototype-based learning sessions, and a post-test. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics, paired-samples t-test, and normalized gain (g). Results demonstrated a substantial improvement in learning outcomes, with the mean score increasing from 58.5 to 82.67 (mean gain = 24.17 points; t(29) = 8.805, p < 0.001; Cohen's d = 1.61), indicating a very large effect size. The normalized gain of 0.55 suggests medium effectiveness based on Hake's classification. Furthermore, 90.0% (27/30) of students achieved scores ≥75 post-intervention, compared to 23.3% (7/30) beforehand. Aligning with Edgar Dale’s Cone of Experience, these findings highlight that direct, hands-on engagement enhances comprehension and retention. The study concludes that hybrid motorcycle prototypes offer a cost-effective, practical, and scalable solution to bridge the theory-practice gap in vocational automotive education, especially in motorcycle-dominant contexts. Recommendations include integrating prototype-based learning into the Merdeka Curriculum and expanding its application to other technical domains.

The rapid development of technology requires prospective teachers to master 21st century skills, particularly problem solving. Students in the Bachelor of Electrical Engineering Education program at Universitas Negeri Malang often experience a high cognitive load due to heavy academic demands and limited computational thinking, which hinder their problem-solving abilities. This study investigates the influence of computational thinking on cognitive load and problem-solving skills. Using a quantitative descriptive design with saturated sampling, 116 students from the 2022–2023 cohorts participated by completing a closed-ended questionnaire. Data were analysed through prerequisite tests, descriptive statistics, and hypothesis testing using MANOVA with SPSS 27. Results show that students with higher computational thinking have lower cognitive load (M = 44.19) and higher problem-solving skills (M = 55.70). Computational thinking significantly affects cognitive load (p < 0.001, η² = 0.415) and problem solving (p = 0.019, η² = 0.067). However, this study is limited to self-reported questionnaire data from a single institution, which may affect the generalizability of the findings. The novelty of this research lies in its simultaneous examination of computational thinking, cognitive load, and problem-solving skills in engineering education, an area that remains underexplored in the Indonesian higher education context. These findings indicate that computational thinking plays a substantial role in reducing cognitive load and improving problem-solving skills, thereby providing valuable insights for curriculum development and instructional design in higher education.

The limited availability of adequate learning media in beauty services business management education has resulted in decreased student engagement and reduced entrepreneurial interest in vocational beauty programs. This study developed and validated an innovative flipbook-based e-module that uniquely integrates theoretical business management principles with industry-specific practical applications for beauty services operations. The research employed a Research and Development (R&D) methodology using the systematic ADDIE model across five phases: analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. Unlike conventional static digital materials, the developed e-module featured interactive 18-page content with multimedia integration, page-turning animations, embedded assessment tools, and comprehensive coverage of business planning, financial management, human resource management, marketing strategies, and risk management specifically contextualized for beauty services business operations. Expert validation demonstrated substantial improvement through iterative development, with material expert scores increasing from 73.3% to 93.3% and media expert scores from 85.0% to 90.0%, achieving an overall expert validation of 91.7%. Student practicality testing revealed 86.5% effectiveness, with notably higher performance in collaborative learning contexts (93.0%) compared to individual assessment (80.0%), empirically supporting social learning effectiveness in vocational education. The validated e-module successfully addressed critical gaps in specialized digital resources for vocational beauty education by combining theoretical knowledge with practical industry applications through an innovative flipbook format. This research contributes novel insights into interactive multimedia applications in vocational contexts and provides a replicable framework for developing industry-specific educational resources. The study's practical implications include enhanced student engagement in salon management education and improved preparation for beauty industry entrepreneurship, offering significant potential for widespread implementation in beauty education programs globally.
