Abstract

The problem of dropout students is closely related with economic weakness of a family, social environment, and the awareness of the importance of education. Concerning dropout students, it is difficult to raise parents' awareness of the importance of education, because from the family perspective, dropout children are expected to become an economic asset to help their family as early as possible. The aim of the present study is to discover the procedure of PBL model implementation in entrepreneurship training for dropout students at CLC (Community Learning Center) Bina Cipta Ujungberung. The study is expected to provide data and information concerning non-formal education institutions which will enable the general population to enter workplace environments and/or independently become entrepreneurs; in order to respond to public needs and to build learning society. This research and development study is conducted for eight month following the preliminary design for the first year. Data is collected through document study, interview, study of primary data, and focus group discussion. The findings show that the following procedures are implemented in the training: tutors review and present problems in which the learners identify problems themselves and find solutions for the problems through experience and practices with various degree of success; learners develop adequate strategy to solve problems through mentoring with the tutors; tutors ask questions to support and encourage learners to finish their tasks; tutor ask learners to discuss and evaluate the solutions to problems. Based on the findings, it is concluded that entrepreneurship training for dropout students can be appropriately delivered using problem-based learning.
