- Abstract
Vocational education has specificity in the composition of practical learning that is more dominant than theoretical learning. The optimal implementation of practicum needs to be supported by various related factors. The purpose of this research is to find out the factors that support air conditioning practicum in vocational education. The quantitative approach was used in this study and the questionnaire was used to collect research data consisting of: laboratories, tools and practicum materials, lecturers/instructors, laboratory assistants/technicians, laboratory regulations, practicum schedules, learning resources, practicum worksheets, and practicum evaluation tools. The populations in this study were students of refrigeration and air conditioning study programs at a vocational education institution in Bandung, Indonesia. All data processing and statistical analysis uses the IBM Statistics SPSS version 21.0. The results showed that there were relationships between a number of variables that were independent of each other. Nine independent variables were identified at the beginning of the study as a source of support for practicum and then grouped into two new factors. Both of these factors have a correlation greater than 0.5, so it can be concluded that it is appropriate to summarize the nine variables analyzed. Based on the Rotated component matrix, it is known that the practicum evaluation tool variable has the highest correlation, this shows that the evaluation of student practicum performance is very important to be a reference for completing competency and planning for practicum activities in the future.
