Writing Vocational Training Plans and Lesson Plans Using the BARTEND Model
Main Article Content
Abstract
This article aimed to propose guidelines for writing vocational training and learning management plans using the BARTEND Model, which consisted of seven steps: Bibliography (B), referencing occupational and professional standards; Analyze (A), analyzing occupational standards to align with course content and annual learning outcomes; Results (R), defining learning outcomes based on Outcome-Based Education (OBE); Test (T), assessment and evaluation; Evidence (E), compiling learning evidence; Normative (N), referencing related standards; and; Dexterity (D), practicing fluently and realistically. The synthesis indicated that the BARTEND Model provided a systematic framework that enhanced clarity and alignment with standards, ensured accountability in training and learning plans, and fostered students’ competencies in knowledge, skills, and attitudes essential for vocational practice.
