2. Abstract of the article
Data on the open unemployment rate by level of education from the Central Bureau of Statistics shows
that the number of unemployed among vocational school graduates is still very high, which means that
investment in entrepreneurial mentality is still lacking. The purpose of this study was to analyze and
evaluate the level of achievement and suitability between the programs that have been planned and the
implementation and results achieved in the implementation of the entrepreneurship education curriculum.
This research is evaluative research using a Mix Method (combination) approach. Based on the analysis
of research results on the context aspect, it shows that the school's vision, mission, and goals are by the
National Education Goals, and adapted to the needs of students. The input aspect shows students,
educators, and infrastructure included in the very good category. The process aspect shows that the
preparation of the Learning Implementation Plan and Learning Implementation Process documents
complies with applicable government regulations and runs very well. The product aspect shows the
achievement of entrepreneurial values and students' entrepreneurial interest in the good category. All
aspects studied on average reached the good category, this shows that the implementation of the
entrepreneurship education curriculum at SMK PGRI 1 Mejobo Kudus has been adjusted to the planning,
both in context, input, process, and product aspects. It is hoped that this research can provide information
about the implementation of the entrepreneurship education curriculum so that schools can improve the
quality of learning, provide facilities and infrastructure, and increase the professionalism of supporting
resources. The school needs to carry out regular follow-up evaluations of the curriculum applied.

3. How do the findings of the article relate to your teaching subject or academic interests?
As a public teacher in a big school the article helps the 4 aspects in the learner’s journey in
school.
➢ Interdisciplinary Connections - entrepreneurship involves elements of business,
economics, marketing, innovation, and often technology. It can bridge different
academic disciplines, making it relevant across a wide range of subjects.
➢ Practical Application - many academic subjects benefit from practical application of
knowledge. Entrepreneurship education emphasizes real-world problem-solving,
creativity, and critical thinking, which are valuable skills across disciplines.
➢ Career Readiness - entrepreneurship education prepares students for the dynamic job
market by fostering skills such as adaptability, resilience, and initiative. This is crucial
in preparing students for various careers, whether they choose to be entrepreneurs or
work in established organizations.
➢ Research Opportunities - or academics, entrepreneurship education provides
opportunities for research in areas such as entrepreneurial behavior, innovation
management, startup ecosystems, and more. It can lead to collaborations with industry
and policy-makers.
In summary, regardless of the specific teaching subject or academic interest, entrepreneurship
education can offer valuable perspectives, skills, and opportunities for both students and
educators across a wide spectrum of disciplines.

There are four ways that we can integrate the technological application in our curriculum. First
is Interactive Learning Platforms, it utilizes platforms that offer interactive elements such as
quizzes, simulations, or virtual labs. These can be integrated into lessons to reinforce concepts
and provide hands-on experiences that may not be feasible otherwise. Next is Digital Content
Creation, it will encourage students to create digital content such as videos, podcasts, or digital
artwork related to the topics covered in the curriculum. This fosters creativity and deeper
understanding of the material. Third one is Collaborative Tools, it uses collaborative tools like
Google Workspace (Docs, Sheets, Slides) or Microsoft Teams to facilitate group projects, peer
editing, and real-time collaboration among students. And lastly is Data Analysis Tools, it
introduces tools for data analysis and visualization (e.g., Excel, Tableau Public) to help students
interpret data, conduct experiments, or analyze trends in different subjects.
By thoughtfully integrating these technological applications into your curriculum, you can create
a more dynamic and engaging learning environment that meets the needs of today's learners.
5. What challenges do you foresee in implementing the technological innovations discussed in the
article, and how might you address them?
Implementing technological innovations often comes with various challenges that need to be
carefully addressed to ensure successful integration and adoption. For me, this are the three most
challenging obstacle that we may face in implementation technological innovation resistance to
change, cost and budget constraints, and skills and training needs.
Resistance to change, we all know that there are people who are afraid of change and afraid to
adapt new technology. However, if we will provide clear communication about the benefits of
the technology to them at all levels. Involve key everyone early in the process to gain their trust
and address concerns. Second is cost and budgets constraint, if we talked about technology, it
will need financial support and we must Seek funding through grants, partnerships, or allocate
budget specifically for innovation initiatives. And lastly, skills and training needs, provide
training programs and workshops to upskill employees on the new technology. Offer ongoing

support and resources for learning. Consider hiring external consultants or partnering with
technology providers for specialized expertise.
By proactively addressing these challenges through careful planning, stakeholder engagement,
and structured implementation processes, organizations can increase the likelihood of
successful adoption and integration of technological innovations.

Research findings can significantly contribute my professional development as an educator in
several ways. It helps provide evidence-based practices. As a researcher it provides evidence of
what works and what doesn't in education. By staying updated with research findings, educators
can implement evidence-based practices in their teaching methods. This ensures that
instructional strategies are grounded in research and have a higher likelihood of being effective.
It often identifies new instructional strategies, teaching techniques, or methodologies that can
enhance student learning outcomes. By integrating these findings into their practice, educators
can improve the quality of their teaching and better meet the needs of their students. In addition,
engaging with research can also facilitate networking with other educators, researchers, and
professionals in the field. This networking can lead to collaborations, sharing of best practices,
and opportunities for further learning and development.
In essence, research findings provide educators with the knowledge and tools necessary to
continuously improve their practice, enhance student outcomes, and contribute meaningfully to
the field of education
