1.2. Problem Identification
Based on the Law on National Education System article 3 about The National Education Goals and an explanation of Article 15 which states that
vocational school is secondary education that prepares learners to work in a particular field. As a result, vocational school has industrial internship program
where the students can practice their skill in industry or workshop. The implementation of industrial internship in State Vocational School 1 Purworejo
was performed by the third-grade students for three months from June to September, whereas teaching and learning activities began in July. As a result,
they missed the material for two months so it is difficult for the English teacher to achieve all the materials in syllabus due to the time limit. The teacher also has
limited time to prepare the students for the national examination because English lesson at the vocational school is one of the lessons which are ended by National
Examination in March. The teacher cannot monitor and control their students to study autonomously when they undergo industrial work practice out of town.
Meanwhile the growth of information and communication technology has brought big impacts in all aspects of our lives including education. In language
learning, information and communication technology brings many advantages that are very useful in teaching and learning process. The use of online Moodle as e-
learning can be suitable media in teaching English for industrial internship students.
1.3. Problem Limitation
To limit the research in order to be specific to conduct and to find particular problems easier, this research was conducted for third-grade students of
Automotive department in State Vocational School 1 Purworejo which consists of 36 students who undergo industrial internship out of town. The researcher only
focuses on designing online Moodle as e-learning media in teaching English for the industrial students.
