ABSTRACT

There is a gap between vocational high school graduates' competence with industry's needs. To overcome this, the teaching factory develops an industry-based learning model. Learning in vocational high schools refers to the standards and procedures that apply to the industry and are implemented according to actual industrial conditions. However, factory teaching and learning require careful preparation to meet its parameters. This study used a combination of questionnaires, interviews, and documentation to analyze the implementation of the teaching factory in Indonesia, especially at Vocational High School 5 Surakarta. From the results, it can be seen that seven of the eight parameters have been effectively implemented in the teaching factory. These parameters are management, workshops, training in learning patterns, marketing promotion, products and services, human resources, and legal aspects. Furthermore, it is known that industrial relations parameters are not yet effective enough because the technology transfer and investment have not been implemented between schools and industry. However, some parameters that have been said to be effective are still not evenly distributed for each sub-parameter. Therefore, evaluation and improvement are needed to increase the teaching factory in these vocational high schools.
