high school with the satisfying results, after that they could get a job which was appropriate with their passion. The comparison of the basic competence, topics,

b. Specifying the Learning Indicators and Learning Activities
Having stated the core competence, basic competence, and learning topics, the researcher then determined how to measure whether or not the competences
have been mastered by specifying the learning indicators. Borg and Gall 1983: p.779 explain that the most important point in planning is the particular
objectives that want to be achieved by the design. In designing, the learning objectives were determined in order to identify and specify the goals or purposes.
Indicators could also be used to construct tests for measuring students‟ progress as
well as the guidelines for selecting tasks and learning materials. In this part, the researcher would present the learning indicators for X, XI, and XII grade students.
The learning indicators for X grade students are presented in table 4.5.
