Abstract

The challenges with vocational education are that graduates are not prepared to work because they do not have the competencies required by the business industry. The graduates from vocational high school have a high unemployment rate because the curriculum is not in line with the needs of the business industry and also graduates standards are quite low. The research aimed to find a solution to these problems. One of the solutions that could be explored was by implementing an integrated learning curriculum model in vocational education. Adaptive curriculum policy is a curriculum that is modified and adapted when necessary, and each educational unit is allowed to innovate. The research method used was a systematic literature review on journals from the last ten years relating to adaptive curriculum and vocational education. The result showed that learning with an integrated curriculum model explored the greatest potential of teachers and students to innovate and improve the quality of learning independently. This promotes the development of working opportunities in the business and industrial sectors, creating high-quality of vocational school graduates with a high degree of skills and characters to become professional workers that are ready to compete in the global era and also creating confident graduates who have the entrepreneurial capacity.

Abstract

The study determined the challenges of technical vocational education and training programmes in polytechnics in Nigeria. The study which adopted descriptive survey design used purposive sampling technique to obtain a sample of 518 subjects (consisting of 98 electrical/electronic engineering lecturers and 420 final year students. One research question and one hypothesis guided the study. A 10-item questionnaire titled “Constraints to Effective TVET Programmes in Polytechnics Questionnaire (CETPPQ)”, was used for the study. Mean and standard deviation were descriptive statistical tools adopted to analyze the research questions while t-test was the inferential statistics used to test the null hypotheses at 0.05 level of significance. The findings revealed among others that lack of teaching staff, inadequate funding, inadequate training facilities among others modern equipment and tools, defective curricula, poor professional development of staff, poor institution-industry synergy, among others constitute constraints to quality polytechnic education in Nigeria. Consequently, it was recommended among others that government should provide requisite human and material resources needed for quality TVET programmes in Nigerian polytechnics for skill training of technology students.

Abstract

Since the enactment of curriculum changes in 2013, several factors have emerged that often become obstacles in geographic and geospatial technical vocational high schools in Indonesia, one of which is minimal acceptance of Geography Information System (GIS) technology. This teacher survey research is to explore the determinant factors that influence the acceptance of GIS technology, through identifying what obstacles are found when the acceptance of GIS technology is integrated in classroom learning. Using survey data from 94 teachers from 34 geographic and geospatial technical vocational schools, question assumptions were formulated using the technology acceptance model (TAM 2), with key determinants of Perceived Usefulness (PU) and User Intention (UI). The lack of knowledge, skills and experience of teachers following GIS training, has caused teachers to be slow in accepting GIS technology. These pressures prevent teachers from reflecting on their teaching, and ultimately result in substitution of teachers intellectual creativity with compliance culture and contribute to the tendency of teachers to prioritize learning experiences that they believe can be directly applied to their own classroom situations. It is clear that the benefits of implementing a classroom will not come alone if the teacher is not ready and trained for the use of GIS technology.

Abstract

This study shows the background that occurs between industry and vocational schools. The purpose of this study is to uncover the problems that occur in bilateral relations between vocational and industrial secondary education institutions for work-based learning models that have existed before. The method used in this study is a separate analysis by researchers with qualitative methods. The results found factors that inhibit learning do not run effectively because the industry in providing information about the latest technology used by the company is not distributed evenly so that the facilities available in each school are different, the character of student work is not in accordance with the mental needs of the industry, the lack of monitoring of the implementation of the Moment of Understanding that is overseen by a clear legal body / institution, the duration of time given is less effective in the industry because time constraints make students unable to apply the many theories obtained at school.
