This study aims to utilize the multidimensional concept of green perceived value (GPV) and injunctive norms in relation to the intention to buy environmentally friendly products. This research utilized 105 questionnaires to investigate the correlation between GPV, injunctive norms, attitudes toward purchasing, and purchase intention by focusing on four components of GPV: functional value, conditional value, social value, and emotional value. Structural equation models were employed to assess the connections among the seven components. This study adds to the existing literature by exploring the nuanced relationship between green perceived value (GPV), injunctive norms, attitudes toward purchasing, and intention to buy environmentally friendly products. By focusing on four dimensions of GPV - functional value, conditional value, social value, and emotional value - the research sheds light on how these components influence consumer behavior. Using structural equation models and analysis of 105 questionnaires, the study reveals that functional and emotional values significantly impact purchase intention via attitudes toward purchasing. These findings contribute to a deeper understanding of consumer behavior and provide insights for promoting and developing eco-friendly products. This study aims to enhance comprehension of consumer behavior and the development of intentions to buy eco-friendly products.

Embedding the watermark is still a challenge in image watermarking. The watermark should not reduce the visual quality of the image being watermarked and hard to distinguish from its original. Embedding a watermark of a small size might be a good solution. However, the watermark might be easy to lose if there is any tampering with the watermarked image. This research proposes to increase the visual quality of the watermarked image using the Walsh Hadamard transform, which is applied to the singular value decomposition-based image watermarking. Technically, the watermark image is converted into a low bit-rate signal before being embedded in the host image. Using various watermark sizes, experimental results show that the proposed method could produce a good imperceptibility with 47.10 dB on average and also gives robustness close to the original watermark with a normalized correlation close to 1 on average. The proposed method can also recognize the original watermark from the tampered watermarked image at different levels of robustness.

The unemployed from vocational high schools (SMK) is still high. Several factors, including the low job readiness of vocational students and the small availability of jobs, cause the high unemployment rate for vocational schools. This study aims to develop a learning model of Integrated Project Based Learning (PjBL-T) and test the effectiveness of the PjBL-T model in preparing vocational students' job readiness. The design of this study adopted the Richey and Klein model stages. This research was carried out in three stages: model development, internal validation, and external validation. This study used research subjects consisting of 10 vocational teachers, ten industrial practitioners, and 54 Automotive Engineering SMK Muhammadiyah 2 Tempel students. The research objects used were SMK Muhammadiyah 2 Tempel, Jogjakarta Automotive Center (OJC) Auto Service, Barokah Auto Service, Astra Daihatsu Armada, and Gadjah Mada Auto Service. The data collection techniques used were focus group discussions (FGD), questionnaires, and practice assessment sheets. Data were analyzed descriptively. The PjBL-T model is feasible and can be applied according to the learning objectives. The effectiveness of increasing student work readiness tested limited and expanded and improved very well with a score of 3.27.

The employability of students is an essential factor that every school must consider. This study aims to test the validity and reliability of the employability scale construct, determine the contribution of each aspect and indicator in reflecting employability variables, and test whether the theoretical model of employability fits with empirical data. Employability is measured by four aspects, namely skills, knowledge, understanding, and personality attributes. The subjects in this study were 372 students of State Vocational High School 1 Kalasan Yogyakarta. The sample in this study amounted to 225 students. The sampling technique used probability sampling with simple random sampling. The data collection method used a job satisfaction scale and data analysis using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with 2nd Order CFA through Lisrel 8. 71 programs. The analysis results show that students at the State Vocational High School 1 Kalasan have employability in the reasonably high category. The aspects and indicators that make up the employability variables are declared valid and reliable based on the analysis results. The most dominant aspect that reflects employability is the scientific aspect, namely studying the material presented in school. The lowest aspect that reflects employability is the personality aspect, namely the perception of online to take risks for what is done. The employability variable measurement model fits the empirical data. The main fit model criteria used in testing the suitability of this model are Chi-Square p, RMSEA, NFI, NNFI, CFI, IFI, GFI, AGFI.

Work readiness has an effect on the unemployment rate for Vocational High School (SMK) graduates. Work readiness can be improved by improving learning patterns and tools. This study aims to develop learning aids, test the feasibility and effectiveness of the product. The research design used is the ADDIE Research Development (R&D) design with the stages of Analysis, Design, Development or Production, Implementation or Delivery and Evaluations. The research site is at SMK Muhammadiyah 2 Tempel with research subjects of 134 students, 14 teachers of Automotive Engineering Vocational School and 5 automotive industry practitioners. Data collection techniques used were questionnaires and tests with interview research instruments, media and product questionnaires and practice test sheets. Android-based student performance aids (Tunersindro) have a very high feasibility of being used in vocational learning. Not only that, with two trials, Tunersindro has a very high level of effectiveness in increasing the work readiness of SMK students Keywords: Improving Work Readiness, Students Performance Aid, Development Tool Tunersindro

In a modern era, digital media has been created and used for educational purposes. In the educational programs, teachers have many objectives which can be converted into some important points that can be mapped on a skill tree. A skill tree is actually commonly known for building gaming media as a decision making system but it has not been widely applied for educational purposes. This paper discusses how to design a skill tree model for effective learning media. The learning objective can be mapped in the skill tree and used for decision-making to decide whether the subject matter being taught by a teacher can proceed or not. The method used in this study was the development method. The findings indicated that the skill tree can be applied as learning media. The results of product testing reveal insignificant defects and smooth operation. Therefore the developed software can be considered as an eligible product to be applied. This software is aimed to assist teachers in understanding the weaknesses of the students and improving the quality of education.

The focus of this research is directed at identifying the model of integrative urban tourism-based social capital. The governance model used the Pentahelix approach to develop and integrate various actors in the tourism development process. It is strengthened using a social capital and developing tourist destinations approaches. The social capital approach is used to understand the motivation of community behavior in the development and/or development of urban tourism. The concept of developing tourist destinations is used to see whether the development of urban tourism has met sustainability tourism criteria. The research was conducted in Kampung Warna Warni (Colorful Village) Jodipan, Malang City. The research methodology used was qualitative approach with descriptive analysis techniques. Data collection was done through in-depth interviews with tourism, private, government and community actors. The results of this study indicate that social capital is a major driver in the development of urban tourism. The collaborative governance approach is proven to be able to develop tourism destinations through strengthening social capital in a sustainable manner.
