DESIGN SOFT SKILLS EDUCATION FOR PREPARING VOCATIONAL SECONDARY HIGH SCHOOL IN PRODUCING SKILLED GRADUATES

The preparation stage is the completeness of the activities of educators to prepare various learning and provide information about learning activities that will be carried out to students, the implementation phase is the delivery of core activities subject lessons, stage inspection is an activity to know how far learners have mastered the learning. Phase checks are not always carried out after all the explanations given will be completed but more a part of that learning can be partially successful. Stage of the evaluation carried out on two conditions ie conditions mastery learners after learning through formative and summative tests, and the condition of interaction and learning materials themselves through questionnaires or interviews with learners. The data from the evaluation stage coupled with the information needed data were then analyzed to determine the content or activities on the revision stage. The results of the revision are materials for learning in the next period.

5. CONTENT OF INSTRUCTIONAL DESIGN

IN VOCATIONAL EDUCATION In this discussion, applied approach to the determination of the real on the steps of the process of designing a particular point on the learning practice in vocational education, while learning to be able to use instructional design theory in public schools. The approach was attempted based on the latest information the results of observations and interviews with experts in the field of vocational education and instructional media, an expert in the field of industry expertise in both technology and services and a plot with a qualification in the field of vocational education expertise. For ease of understanding, it discusses the four activities of the instructional design system of CB Leshin, J Pollock, and Reigeluth CM 1994 but the sub- activities are tailored to real needs in vocational education. These activities are: needs analysis, selection and sequence of lesson content, lesson development, and instructional evaluation. Each activity will discuss about the sub-activities that are carried out in stages in accordance with Figure 2. Adaption from CB Leshin, J Pollock, and Reigeluth CM 1994 Figure 2. The Model of Instructional Design in Vocational Design

5.1 Need Analysis

Discussing the need for an analysis of any design is also not free from the understanding of the importance of design itself. As a building, whatever its form should be as simple as there are plans to initiate the building can be erected. The plan begins with the question why should the house, after which it will be many variations of the information should be collected to build a house. From the answers the needs of developing homes on wide range of information or the size of house, location, financing, architecture, materials, time, civil drawings to the phasing of the building until the house is planned so. Is a string of stage design activities, while the implementation of home- making and whether the house is convenient for the owner occupied is an activity after another. In this step is indicate that ID needs information. The information is used to define the problems and analysis how to solve them. The problems usually are lack of competency in the field work and what will be held by the vocational education to solve those problems. In line with that problem is the data about characteristic of student or participant that want to follow the program of learning in the vocational education. In the end of this step, we need some verification in the field 132 work especially to know the problem and close to the really task and job that suitable and needs in Indonesia field work. Here is the content of need analysis: The Problem of Competency nedds information about: o Define what is the problem like o Why its competency is needed o How to fill that, o Make summary The Student Characteristic: o Define who are the students o Why do they need the competency o How to fill that o Summary

5.2 Selection and Stage of Competency

Step 2 and 3 are the job of the teachers or educators. They usually do this to completely the lesson plan. The competency selection is to make a list competency that close to the main problem and define the main competency. The main competency is an object learning that will be designed and implemented by the vocational education. Based on the main competency we have to find information of the data about the kinds of the job, task, and performance in the domain of its competency. The competency indicators are parts of main competency. They must be achieved completely by the student to get the main competency. The hierarchy of each competency indicator is important, with this can be know which one the first as a prerequisite to the others indicators. The map of competency achievement is to make easy the condition learning of the students. The competency analysis is to define performance of each competency indicator. The performance is the skill that can be observed and valued. We have to make in detail and single performance in competency indicator. According to the demanding of competency, the performance assessment must be made proper to each indicator, because the performance assessment will be key point of process learning. The goal of learning or learning objective is based on performance assessment, which means in this chapter the designer should write in detail the learning objective. The structure of learning objective usually is formed by verb, standard performance, and condition. Here is the content of this step. Competency Selection: o List of competency that close to the problem o Define the main competency o Define the main performance of competency Competency Indicators: o Define the competency indicators o Arrange in a series of the competency indicators o Make a map of competency achievement Competency Analysis: o The performance of each competency indicator o The performance assessment of each competency o Write the goal of each competency indicator

5.3 Lesson Development

The learning development is the plan of the teacher to fill the learning activity with the student. In this book will divide in two steps, they are instructional strategy and learning material. Instructional strategy is like the method, but it is depend on the condition of learning. We can define the deferent strategy although in the same subject learning. The aspects that influence the instructional strategy are type of learning, characteristic of student, capability or qualification of teacher. Instructional strategy as a method has four activities. Stage of the lesson is interaction between teacher and student. In this stage has three parts, they are preparation, core of learning, and feedback. Preparation is to make student aware to the learning process, have motivation and ready to accept the lesson. Core of learning is process to present the subject learning. Feedback is activity to check the student achievement in subject learning. The method of instructional means method of teaching. Teacher will choose the proper method in case of the kind’s subject learning. There are a lot of teaching methods and to use it depend on the condition or field situation when presenting the subject learning. To use the media instructional is depend on the qualification of the teacher and availability of equipment to make that media. Computerize in media instructional has helped a huge problem in interaction learning in education. We can use three dimensional programs simulation to present artificial object and moving object without using the real equipment. It will save the time and money. Time consuming is important to give limit in process learning. In case of practice learning, the teachers should be tried them self to do the job sheet before it is given to the student. The teachers define the time consuming to finish the job is based on the learning activity, not in real job in the field work. Teaching material is the some material that used to help teacher completely the presenting of subject learning. To define what the material is properly to the learning process, we have to look the type of learning theory or practices. The kinds of teaching material are modules, books, information sheets, job sheets, hand out, work sheet, manual book, and the others material that needed by the process learning. The source academic means someone who has well in skill and knows about the subject learning to 133
