DEVELOPMENT OF INDUSTRIAL WORK PRACTICES (PRAKERIN) INFORMATION SYSTEM BASED ON E-LEARNING MOODLE AT SMK SAINTREN AL-HASAN SURABAYA

Keterlibatan teknologi dalam pendidikan, membuat pendidikan yang saat ini berjalan semakin modern dan berdaya saing global. Praktek Kerja Industri (PRAKERIN) sebagai salah satu program unggulan SMK, seharusnya dapat mewujudkan integrasi antara SMK dengan dunia kerja, serta membekali peserta didik dengan keterampilan kerja yang diperlukan di masa mendatang. Namun, pengelolaan PRAKERIN di SMK tidak luput dari berbagai permasalahan, mulai dari gap antara kompetensi peserta didik dengan kualifikasi industri yang cukup jauh, maupun pengelolaan PRAKERIN yang masih bersifat konvensional. Berdasarkan hasil observasi dan wawancara diketahui bahwa pengelolaan PRAKERIN di SMK Saintren Al-Hasan Surabaya masih dilakukan secara konvensional, sehingga menyebabkan peserta didik kurang memahami mekanisme pelaksanaan PRAKERIN. Salah satu upaya yang dapat dilakukan untuk mengatasi permasalahan tersebut ialah dengan melakukan pengembangan sistem informasi PRAKERIN SMK yang komunikatif, mudah dipahami, serta mampu memberikan informasi yang cepat dan akurat. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengembangkan Sistem Informasi Praktek Kerja Industri (PRAKERIN) SMK Berbasis ­E-learning Moodle di SMK Saintren Al-Hasan dari aspek kegunaan, kevalidan, dan kepraktisannya melalui uji coba. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah Research and Development (R&D) dengan model waterfall. Hasil dari penelitian ini adalah Sistem Informasi Praktek Kerja Industri (Simpati) telah memenuhi spesifikasi produk yang diharapkan oleh pihak SMK Saintren Al-Hasan Surabaya; Simpati memenuhi aspek kegunaan, karena Simpati memiliki fungsionalitas yang baik; Simpati dikatakan valid karena telah melalui proses uji coba dan memeroleh hasil yang terukur; Simpati dikatakan praktis karena mengubah pengelolaan PRAKERIN yang konvensional menjadi lebih modern dengan adanya penerapan teknologi.
