DEVELOPMENT OF INDUSTRIAL WORK PRACTICES (PRAKERIN) INFORMATION SYSTEM BASED ON E-LEARNING MOODLE

Abstract

Industrial Work Practice (PRAKERIN), as a flagship program of vocational high schools (SMK), should be able to realize the integration between SMK and the working world. The management of PRAKERIN in SMK still encounters various problems, ranging from the gap between the competencies of students and the industry's required qualifications, to the conventional nature of PRAKERIN management. This research aims to develop an Industrial Work Practice (PRAKERIN) Information System for SMK based on E-learning Moodle, focusing on usability, validity, and practicality aspects. The research method used is Research and Development (R&D) with the waterfall model. The results of this research show that the Industrial Work Practice Information System (Simpati) meets the quality and feasibility standards, as evidenced by the testing and measurable results obtained. The development of Simpati provides a solution to the problems in PRAKERIN management in SMK and transforms conventional PRAKERIN management into a more modern approach through the implementation of technology.
