E-learning in Indonesia began in mid-nineties with the advent of internet preceded by information technology which was introduced in Indonesia in late 1970s and early19 80s. However, those elearning initiators hit hard by the economic and political crises which hit Indonesia in 1997s until early 21st century. Beginning the year 2000, many schools, especially senior high school, took the initiatives to conduct e-learning in their environments, in spite of the economic crises. Based on data available from the Department of national Education, a survey conducted toward high school Websites. A virtual visit and randomly selected physical visits to high schools situated in Jakarta, Yogyakarta (Central Java), Makassar (South Sulawesi) and Padang(West Sumatera) yielded result that those Websites mainly used for disseminating school profiles including name and address, principals and teaching staffs, facilities, extracurricular works etc, but none specially directed to e-learning materials. The research orientation changed to vocational high school with the assumption that the vocational high school graduates are geared toward working market hence the courses are directed to more practical application and subsequently can improved with e-learning activities. Based on data from National Library of Indonesia and Directorate of Vocational High School, purposive sampling was done. The criteria are (a) the school has conducted e-learning for at least five years; (b) agree to be interviewed; (c) has trained other schools on e-learning development; (d) own a school library (e) appointed by Directorate of Vocational High School as a pilot project (f) accessible economically from Jakarta so it is more convenient to visit. Using snowball method, from interview with Wikrama principal and teachers, yielded data on other vocational schools in many regions. Those vocational high schools are randomly selected, interviewed by volunteer researchers . The results are analysed and showed that e-learning in vocational high school is limited to facilities designed by the school such as commonly found in Intranet, the constraints mainly on physical infrastructure and e-learning spread because of lack of facilities from school library. The development of e-learning activities is separated from school library, a cause resulted from the wrong perception of the school principals. It is suggested that the development of e-learning should synchronised with school library because in the future, even right now, school library will developed into learning resource centres, in which e-learning is covered. However, it needs better understanding among school principals which in Indonesia who will decide the fate of school library, either like it or not.

<p>The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of blended e-learning on electrical machinery performance (achievement test and self-assessment). Participants were two classes of 11th graders majoring in electrical engineering and taking the electrical machinery class at a vocational high school in Taiwan. The participants were randomly selected and assigned to either the experimental group (<em>n</em> = 33) which studied through blended e-learning or the control group (<em>n</em> = 32) which studied through traditional classroom learning. The experiment lasted for five weeks. The results showed that (a) there were no significant differences in achievement test scores between blended e-learning and traditional learning; (b) students in the experimental group obtained significantly higher scores on self-assessment than students in the control group; (c) students’ scores on self-assessment were significantly higher after studying through blended e-learning than before. Overall, blended e-learning did not significantly affect students’ achievement test scores, but significantly affected their self-assessment scores.</p>

E-learning has been to be a very popular choice in the 21st century education world. E-learning able to meet a variety of learning needs tailored to each level of education. E-learning makes it easy for a teacher to give lessons to students without being bound by space and time anymore. Students can receive subject matter anywhere and anytime while at home, at school, and at work. Students can take advantage of discussion forums to discuss remotely through the use of collaborative learning tools available in e-learning. The goal to be achieved is to know the e-learning model for vocational education, namely vocational high school (SMK). In particular, this paper reviews the technical literature on the concept of e-learning, e-learning models, and the development of e-learning models in the context of TVE. Regarding e-learning studies, journal articles, opinion papers, conceptual papers, etc. are analyzed for content related to the e-learning model on TVE. It was concluded that the use of e-learning in vocational education such as Vocational High Schools was needed to assist teachers in improving the learning process. E-learning needs for vocational high schools as an effective learning media adapted to the vocational characteristics of each school.

Penelitian ini bertujuan menghasilkan desain DSS dan mengetahui kualitas DSS yang dipakai instruktur dalam menentukan metode pelatihan e-learning berbasis Moodle bagi guru SMK.Penelitian dan pengembangan ini melalui lima fase yaitu: asesmen/analisis, desain, pengembangan, implementasi dan evaluasi. Subyek penelitian adalah guru SMK di Kota Yogyakarta, Sleman dan Magelang 75 responden need assessment and analysis, 15 guru uji beta, 24 guru untuk evaluasi. Instrumen pengumpulan data berupa lembar kuesioner need assessment and analysis, lembar validasi ahli pelatihan, lembar uji alfa, lembar uji beta dan lembar evaluasi pelatihan.HasilpenelitianmenunjukkanDSS memberikan alternatif keputusan secara cepat melalui empat pertimbangan berdasarkan peserta, tujuan, keuntungan, dan level. Hasil uji alfa dan beta DSS menunjukkanskor 4,14dan 4,02 atau kategori “baik”.SedangkanakurasiDSS melalui evaluasi terhadap 24 pesertapelatihane-learningmenunjukkan 88,14%akurat. DEVELOPING A DSSFOR DETERMINING THE METHOD OF MOODLE-BASEDE-LEARNINGTRAINING FOR VOCATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL TEACHERSAbstractThis study aims to produce the DSS design and knowing the quality of the DSS is used in determining instructor training method based on Moodle e-learning for Vocational High School teachers. This study was a research and development conducted in five steps, i.e. need assessment/analysis, design, development, implementation and evaluation. The subject was teachers of SMK at Yogyakarta City, Sleman and Magelang, there were 75 respondents for needs assessment and analysis 15 teachers for beta testing, 24 teachers for evaluation. The instruments of the data collection were validation sheets for the needs assessment and analysis, alpha test sheets, beta test sheets and training evaluation sheets.The result of the study shows the following: the DSSprovides an alternativerapiddecisionsthroughfourconsiderationsbased on: participants, objectives, benefits, andlevel.The Alpha test and Beta test results show a mean score of 3.92 and 4.02 or the DSS is in the “good” category. While, the accuracy of the DSS through an evaluation of 24 participants of the e-learning training shows 88,14% accuracy.
