Development of Electronic Student Work-Sheets (E-LKPD) by Digital Drawing Mode at Private Vocational Schools

Introduction

Development of electronic student work-sheets (e-lkpd) by digital drawing mode at private vocational schools. Explore an E-LKPD for digital fashion drawing using Ibis Paint, designed for vocational schools. This innovative tool improves student understanding & proves "Very Good" in feasibility tests.

Abstract

This research emerged from several obstacles in the field, namely students' difficulties in understanding digital technical design material with Ibis Paint. The aims of this research are : 1) to develop an E-LKPD for digital fashion drawing at Private Vocational School, 2) to determine the feasibility of a digital fashion drawing E-LKPD. This research used the R&D method with a 4-D development model (define, design, development, and disseminate). The validation and trial stages were carried out to assess the feasibility of E-LKPD. Material experts and media experts play a role in validation to obtain input regarding the appropriateness in terms of material and media. The feasibility test was carried out through a questionnaire to class XI students at Setia Budi Binjai Private Vocational School, second semester. Data analysis uses a five-scale score (Likert scale) for the predetermined assessment categories. The results of this research are: 1) validation of E-LKPD drawing mode according to material experts "Very Good" with an average percentage score of 94% and according to media experts "Very Good" with an average percentage score of 87.4%. 2) The feasibility of E-LKPD drawing mode is included in the "Very Good" category. The average score percentage results in the small group trial were 80% with "Good" criteria, the medium group was 87.5% with "Very Good" criteria, and the large group was 92.8% with "Very Good" criteria.

Review

This paper presents a timely and relevant investigation into the development and feasibility of Electronic Student Work-Sheets (E-LKPD) for digital fashion drawing in vocational education. Addressing a clear pedagogical challenge—students' difficulties with digital technical design using Ibis Paint—the research sets out clear objectives: to develop an E-LKPD and ascertain its feasibility. The chosen Research and Development (R&D) method, specifically the 4-D model (define, design, development, and disseminate), is highly appropriate for this type of educational material development, demonstrating a structured approach to solving a practical problem. The focus on enhancing digital skills through a targeted learning tool is particularly valuable in the context of modern vocational training. The methodological execution is robust, involving both expert validation and practical student trials. The E-LKPD's content and media design were rigorously assessed by material and media experts, yielding "Very Good" ratings (94% and 87.4% respectively), which provides strong initial evidence of the quality and instructional appropriateness of the developed material. Furthermore, the progressive feasibility testing with class XI students through small, medium, and large group trials (scoring 80% "Good," 87.5% "Very Good," and 92.8% "Very Good" respectively) demonstrates a comprehensive evaluation process. The consistent positive feedback across these stages, analyzed using a five-scale Likert system, strongly supports the conclusion that the developed E-LKPD is highly feasible and well-received by its intended users. While the study successfully establishes the feasibility and acceptance of the E-LKPD, future research could explore its direct impact on student learning outcomes, such as skill acquisition, drawing proficiency, and long-term retention of digital design concepts. Investigating the E-LKPD's effectiveness in diverse vocational school settings or comparing its pedagogical impact against traditional learning methods would also add significant value. Nevertheless, this research offers a valuable contribution to educational technology, particularly for vocational schools aiming to integrate digital tools to overcome specific learning difficulties. The developed E-LKPD holds promising potential to enhance the learning experience and skill development in digital fashion drawing, making a commendable step forward in practical vocational education.
