Factors Influencing Work Readiness and Student Satisfaction in Technical Education: A Systematic Review of Industry Collaboration, Certification, and Academic Engagement
Full text linkThis study systematically examines the factors that affect students' job readiness and satisfaction in engineering education through a comprehensive analysis of industry support, certification programs, and academic engagement. The Industrial Revolution 4.0 era has created a significant skills gap between graduate competencies and industry needs, demanding innovative approaches in the preparation of work-ready graduates. Through the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) which follows PRISMA's guidelines for articles obtained from the ScienceDirect database during the period 2017-2024, this study integrates evidence from multiple theoretical frameworks including experiential learning theory, social cognitive theory, and human capital theory. Of the 800 articles identified through ScienceDirect's database search, after going through a rigorous PRISMA selection process with quality assessment using the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool (MMAT), 185 high-quality articles were successfully selected and analyzed in depth. Key findings show a significant positive relationship between industry-university collaboration, the implementation of professional certification programs, and active academic involvement to improving job readiness and student satisfaction. The analysis revealed that the implementation of industrial internship programs (94% effectiveness, satisfaction score 4.6/5.0), industry-specific competency certification (satisfaction rating 4.4/5.0), and extracurricular activities such as capstone projects and engineering competitions can significantly increase employability. Nonetheless, systemic challenges such as curriculum gaps with industry needs (identified in 68.1% of studies), limited faculty experience in industry (53% of studies), and infrastructure limitations (47% of studies) remain structural barriers that require comprehensive solutions. This research provides an evidence-based framework for transforming technical education toward more industry-relevant, student-centered approaches and provides actionable recommendations for educational practitioners, policymakers, and industry partners

Full text linkThis research was conducted to address the low level of physical fitness, particularly VO₂Max, among junior high school female students, which impacts their overall health and physical performance. The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of poco-poco and SKJ 2021 aerobic exercise programs, along with the influence of exercise motivation, on the improvement of VO₂Max in female students at SMP Negeri 6 Bengkulu. The study employed a quantitative approach using a quasi-experimental method with a 2x2 factorial design. A total of 24 female students were selected through total sampling and divided into four treatment groups. The exercise was conducted over 12 sessions, and VO₂Max was measured using the Multistage Fitness Test (MFT). The results revealed that the group performing SKJ 2021 with high motivation (A2B1) achieved the highest average posttest VO₂Max score of 41.2 ml/kg/min, while the poco-poco group with low motivation (A1B2) had the lowest average score of 35.6 ml/kg/min. Two-way ANOVA analysis showed a significant effect of both exercise type and motivation level on VO₂Max (p < 0.05). The interaction between exercise and motivation was also statistically significant. These findings conclude that the combination of structured aerobic exercise and high motivation significantly enhances cardiovascular endurance in female junior high school students
Gaining Qualitative Insights Into Learners' Experiences And Perceptions Of Digital Activities For English Language Learning
Full text linkThe integration of digital activities into language learning has transformed traditional instructional methods, increasing engagement and interactivity. This study explores the experiences and perceptions of fourth-semester students in the English Education program at State Islamic University Fatmawati Sukarno Bengkulu regarding the use of digital tools for language acquisition. Employing a qualitative research design, the study investigates students’ evaluations of digital resources, their perceived benefits, and the challenges they encounter. Findings reveal that students frequently utilize digital tools such as educational videos, online reading platforms, and social media to enhance vocabulary acquisition, listening comprehension, and interactive language practice. Digital activities, particularly those incorporating gamification, are perceived as engaging and motivating. However, students also identify key challenges, including a lack of structured guidance, limited feedback, and technological barriers such as poor internet connectivity. While digital tools effectively support receptive skills (listening and reading), their impact on productive skills (speaking and writing) is limited without instructor support. This study contributes to research on digital learning by highlighting both its pedagogical advantages and constraints. The findings emphasize the need for structured pedagogical interventions, such as blended learning models that integrate digital tools with instructor-led guidance and feedback. Addressing technological barriers is also crucial to ensuring equitable access to digital learning resources. Future research should examine the long-term effects of digital learning on productive language skills and explore strategies for optimizing digital learning outcomes. By understanding students’ experiences, educators and institutions can refine digital learning approaches to enhance engagement and language acquisition
