Bridging Theory and Practice: A Systematic Review of Work-Integrated Learning Frameworks in Vocational Education
Full text linkWork-Integrated Learning (WIL) has become essential in vocational education for bridging academic learning with workplace experience. This systematic review analyzes 61 articles on WIL frameworks published between 2019-2024 using the PRISMA protocol. The analysis identifies five main types of WIL frameworks: Competency-Based Framework (focusing on industry-relevant competencies), Integrated Evaluation Framework (emphasizing comprehensive assessment), Industry-Academic Collaborative Framework (developing effective institutional-industry partnerships), Technology-Enhanced WIL Framework (utilizing technology to expand learning experiences), and Field-Specific Pedagogical Framework (tailoring approaches to specific disciplines). Publication trends show significant growth in WIL framework research, with a peak of 17 articles in 2024, reflecting increasing recognition of work-based learning's importance. The review reveals several research gaps, including limited investigation of technology integration's long-term impact, need for multi-stakeholder evaluation approaches, frameworks that effectively combine various WIL modalities, limited understanding of cross-disciplinary framework transferability, and frameworks that systematically incorporate evolving workforce demands. These findings provide direction for future WIL framework development and implementation, Contributing to more effective integration of academic learning with practical work experience in vocational education, these findings provide valuable direction for the future development and implementation of Work-Integrated Learning frameworks

Monitoring truck driver working and rest hours using safety applications
Full text linkTraffic accidents remain a major risk in commercial truck transportation, both in Indonesia and globally. A key contributing factor is driver fatigue, often resulting from excessive workloads and prolonged working hours. This study employs a descriptive case series design to evaluate the implementation of working and rest hour regulations for commercial truck drivers. Secondary data were analyzed from the third quarter of 2024 (July–September), covering three operational regions in West Java, Central Java, and East Java & Bali-Nusa Tenggara. Data were obtained from two driver safety monitoring applications used by a commercial transport operator. Initial analysis involved calculating compliance percentages across all locations in the three regions, followed by a more detailed review of three selected sites per region. Findings reveal that one region exhibited the lowest compliance with regulated working hours and demonstrated inconsistent enforcement of the required 8-hour rest period following 12 hours of work. These results highlight the need for strengthened monitoring and enforcement mechanisms to improve driver safety and reduce accident risks in the commercial transportation sector
