Design and Simulation of Carbon Steel-based Band Saw Frame
No full textFrame design is an important factor in ensuring optimal performance of the band saw machine due to the dynamic loads that occur during the cutting process. This study discusses the design and simulation of a band saw machine with a focus on the analysis of the strength and stability of the machine frame using carbon steel with varying thicknesses, namely 1 mm, 2 mm, and 3 mm. Simulations were performed using finite element analysis (FEA)-based software to evaluate the stress, deformation, and safety factors of each variation of steel thickness. The simulation results show that material thickness has a significant effect on the frame's ability to withstand loads. Carbon steel with a thickness of 3 mm has the best structural performance in terms of stiffness and resistance to deformation, while steel with a thickness of 1 mm shows greater deformation at the same load. Thus, choosing the right thickness is very important to ensure the efficiency and durability of the band saw machine in industrial applications

Nilai-nilai etika dan estetika dalam prosesi upacara perkawinan masyarakat Jawa: wahana pembentukan karakter mulia
No full textPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk menjelaskan kandungan kultural dalam prosesi upacara perkawinan Jawa. Kandungan kultural yang paling mendasar adalah nilai etika dan estetikanya. Nilai etika berkaitan dengan proses dan muatan pembentukan karakter, moral, atau kepribadian orang menjadi lebih baik dan positif. Para pelaku prosesi harus mengikuti irama kedisiplinan dan karakteritik upacara pengantin Jawa. Irama prosesi dan substansi yang terkandung dalam prosesi itu sendiri menuntut tumbuhnya nilai-nilai positif etika, misalnya hormat, patuh, setia, disiplin, kerja keras, cekatan, pintar, dan tanggung jawab. Di samping pembentukan etika, prosesi ini juga menuntut dikembangkannya nilai-nilai estetika (bahasa, budaya, sosial). Pendekatan yang digunakan ialah sosiolinguistik, sosiokultural, dan dilengkapi dengan discourse analysis. Data yang digunakan berupa prosesi perkawinan Jawa dalam upacara perkawinan yang diselenggarakan oleh masyarakat Jawa di wilayah Yogyakarta. Hasil dari penelitian ialah; pertama, upacara perkawinan dapat membentuk sikap mental dan karakter yang mantap, diantaranya: disiplin, mandiri, ramah, berwibawa, dan bisa diteladani. Kedua, unsur-unsur estetika linguistik yang digunakan antara lain tembung saroja, tembung garba, yogyaswara, keratabasa, tembung entar, paribasan, bebasan, saloka, pepindhan, pralambang, purwakanthi, panambang ha-, seselan –in-, seselan –um-, tembung kawi, dan diksi religiusitas. Nilai-nilai estetika kultural dan sosial yang ditemukan antara lain nilai estetika dalam hubungan sosial, persaudaraan, dan anasir budaya Jawa (estetika rumah, busana, dan makanan). Nilai Etika dan estetika tersebut seiring dengan dinamika ekonomi, sosial, dan budaya masyarakat Jawa, yang menjadi konteks upacara perkawinan Jawa, mengalami dinamika dan perubahan-perubahan yang lentur dan akomodatif. Namun perubahan itu tidak menghilangkan substansi utama pentingnya nilai budi pekerti luhur dalam budaya perkawinan adat Jawa

Digital maturity models and instruments for vocational high schools in Indonesia
No full textResearch on digital maturity models in education, particularly vocational education, remains limited, despite the urgent need for schools to adapt to digital transformation. Vocational High Schools (SMK) in Indonesia are mandated to prepare graduates as skilled workers ready to meet industry demands, and therefore require a clear framework to assess their digital readiness. This study aims to develop a model and an instrument to measure the digital maturity level of vocational schools. The research employed a literature review of existing digital maturity models from both education and industry, followed by synthesis and adaptation to the vocational school context. The resulting model consists of five dimensions: strategy and organization, people and culture, products and services, technology and infrastructure, and organizational operations. It defines five levels of maturity: not ready, initial readiness, medium readiness, mature readiness, and fully applied. An instrument with 29 indicators was developed and tested through a pilot study in one vocational school, with results showing strong validity and reliability (Cronbach’s Alpha = 0.935). The findings highlight the inclusion of the products and services dimension as a novel contribution compared to existing educational models. This model and instrument provide practical benefits for vocational school leaders to assess current digital maturity, identify areas for improvement, and plan targeted digital transformation strategies. The study also opens avenues for future research through larger-scale validation and integration of field observations
Evaluating English coursebooks for Indonesian vocational schools: A SQRAR-based material analysis in the EFL context
No full textEnglish learning materials play a pivotal role in supporting vocational high school (SMK) students in acquiring language competencies relevant to both academic progression and workplace demands. This study evaluates the quality, relevance, and pedagogical suitability of government-issued English coursebooks for Grades 10, 11, and 12 used in Indonesian vocational schools. Employing the SQRAR (Structure, Quality, Relevance, Appropriateness, and Readability) evaluation framework, expert reviewers in English language teaching assessed the coursebooks based on content organization, contextual alignment, linguistic features, and usability. The findings show that while the materials generally align with the national curriculum, several aspects require enhancement—particularly in integrating vocationally contextualized content, improving readability, and strengthening task authenticity. The study highlights the need for systematic revisions and adaptive learning resources that better reflect the linguistic, professional, and communicative needs of vocational students. Recommendations include embedding workplace discourse, incorporating industry-relevant tasks, and enriching multimodal resources to ensure that English materials more effectively support students’ future employability in diverse vocational fields
A needs analysis of mobile game-based learning media for visual communication design in Padang vocational schools
No full textThis study aims to reveal the need for mobile game-based learning media (MGBLM) in the visual communication design (VCD) subject in vocational high schools. This study employs a quantitative descriptive approach using a survey administered to two groups of respondents: 12 VCD teachers and 255 students from 12 public and private vocational high schools in Padang during the odd semester of the 2024/2025 academic year. Data were collected via a Likert-scale questionnaire and analyzed descriptively, with percentages reported. The study results indicate a high level of need: 96% of teachers and 94% of students rated the integration of MGBLM in the VCD learning process as very high. The study also found that teachers fully agree that mobile-based learning media should align with curriculum objectives and support student engagement through interactive visual learning. Similarly, more than 90% of students agreed or strongly agreed that they needed mobile game-based learning media that suited their learning styles and supported independent and enjoyable VCD learning. These findings emphasize the importance of developing mobile game-based learning media tailored to the needs of vocational high school students, especially in creative subjects such as visual communication design. These results serve as a foundation for further development of educational media using structured models such as Hanafin and Peck. This study is unique because it explicitly maps the needs for mobile game-based learning in the VCD subject, an area that has been rarely explored in Indonesian vocational schools
