Abstract

The unemployment rate from Vocational High School graduate can be reduced by maximizing the role of Vocational High School to prepare the student to be an entrepreneur. It can be done by strengthening students' communication skill to interact with the environment suitable for their competence. That skill can be rehearsed by using a learning model oriented in soft skill management, that is a Project-based Learning integrated with Entrepreneurship. The objective of this research is to measure students' communication skill shown through immediate service for society. This research focuses on a specific competence related to motorcycle tune-up. The learning process supported a project to offer motorcycle tune-up service for the community. This research used quasi-experiment method. The subjects of this research were the students of XII TSM 1 (XII Low Vehicle Engineer 1) as Experimental Group and students of XII TSM 2 as Control Group. The result shows that this learning model improves students' communication skill. In the scale of 1 to 5, the students' achievement improves at 2.54 point. Both experimental and control groups present a significantly different result, with t of 28.3 and t table of 2.14. The experimental group can act as the workshop manager, execute the standard of service, exhibit leadership, find some service tricks and develop them creatively, implement the first-rate service and report the result orally. Whereas the control group participated in classic learning only without conducting immediate entrepreneurship practice and project-oriented education related to the material.
