Development of STEM Integrated Project Based Learning Model in Vocational Education

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to develop a Project-Based Learning model integrated with STEM and to measure its validity and practicality levels. This research uses the development model from Borg & Gall, by reducing the development stages into four phases: 1) Data collection phase, 2) Planning and design phase, 3) Development phase, 4) Validation and trial phase. The sample involves experts for the evaluation, as well as students from class XI of the Light Vehicle Engineering Power Transmission System subject, and also includes teachers. The data collection tool used is a questionnaire, and the data analysis technique is conducted descriptively. The findings show that the product produced consists of a model book, teaching module, teacher guide, and student guide. This model produces 7 steps, which include: 1) Providing the problem to be faced, 2) Giving students freedom, 3) Planning and developing the project, 4) Organizing the schedule and monitoring the project, 5) Evaluating the project, 6) Communication and reflection, 7) sentence incomplete, please provide the next part for translation. Providing rewards to students within the group. The developed learning model has also been proven to be valid and practical, making it usable. The suggestion from this finding is that it is expected to be applied to other subjects, and there is a need to stimulate and motivate students in implementing this learning model, so that the learning process can be focused, effective, and efficient.
