Design and development of job sheets to facilitate independent learning in Workshop Practices and Engineering Drawing Subjects: A case study at Vocational Secondary School

Introduction: This study investigates the necessity for innovative and effective practical learning media by developing a Job Sheet and assessing its feasibility through evaluation process that includes media experts, subject matter experts, and end-users.Methods: This study utilized a Research and Development approach based on the 4D model (Define, Design, Develop, Disseminate) to systematically and iteratively refine the Job Sheet. Data were gathered through descriptive observation, semi-structured interviews, and questionnaires, subsequently subjected to thorough quantitative analysisResults: The feasibility evaluation resulted in an 87.5% score from media experts, underscoring the Job Sheet's robust design principles, usability, and conformity with digital learning media standards. A score of 92.5% from subject matter experts indicated the material's relevance, accuracy, and alignment with learning objectives. The results of user testing indicated an 85% satisfaction score, affirming the practicality and engagement potential of the Job Sheet in actual educational contexts. Conclusions: The findings highlight the substantial role of the Job Sheet as an effective resource for improving practical learning. This study emphasizes the potential of tailored learning media to connect theoretical and practical knowledge, thereby enhancing student engagement and facilitating effective skill acquisition.
