Abstract

Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) is a crucial aspect of land surveying practices conducted by vocational high school students. The risk of accidents, such as falls, being buried by soil, and exposure to extreme weather conditions, necessitates the optimal implementation of OSH awareness and compliance. This study aims to analyze the integration of student awareness and compliance with OSH in land surveying practices. The research employs a quantitative approach using multiple linear regression analysis. Prior to analysis, the data were tested for (1) normality, (2) homogeneity, and (3) linearity. The study population consists of 105 students from the Construction and Housing Engineering program at SMK Negeri 3 Semarang, selected through a total sampling technique. Data were collected through questionnaires, observations, and interviews, then analyzed using SPSS. The results indicate that student awareness and compliance significantly and simultaneously influence OSH implementation, contributing 78%. The correlation analysis reveals a strong relationship of 88% between the variables. Students with high awareness and compliance demonstrate greater discipline in adhering to OSH procedures in the field. These findings suggest that enhancing education, providing adequate safety facilities, and enforcing strict supervision can further improve OSH implementation in land surveying practices within vocational school environments.

Abstract

This study aimed to develop and evaluate Augmented Reality (AR)-based learning media to enhance students’ cognitive abilities at State Vocational High School (SMK Negeri) 2 Pati, particularly in the subject of Computer Networking and the Internet. The research was motivated by low student achievement in meeting the Minimum Mastery Criteria (KKTP), which was primarily attributed to the continued reliance on traditional teaching methods and low student motivation. A research and development (R&D) approach was employed using the ADDIE model. The resulting AR media is an Android application that integrates text, audio, images, animations, interactive 3D objects, and simulations, and is in accordance with the Merdeka Curriculum. Expert evaluations showed a very high level of feasibility, with ratings of 94% from a subject matter expert and 91% from a media expert. These results were further supported by Aiken’s V index, which indicated very high validity for the material (0.921) and high validity for the media (0.881). A practicality test was conducted, revealing a high level of effectiveness, with a 94% approval rating from both teachers and students. Moreover, a pretest–posttest control group design demonstrated significant progress in learning outcomes. The experimental group achieved an average post-test score of 83.75, significantly higher than the control group’s 73.60. Based on the N-Gain test, the experimental group achieved an average gain of 65.52% (moderately effective), whereas the control group achieved only 38.75% (ineffective). This study contributes to the theories of learning transfer, connectivism, and heutagogy, and offers practical implications for vocational education in adopting innovative technologies.
