Abstract

Vocational education offers a curriculum in form of a combination of theory and practice, where the percentage of theory is smaller than the practice. This is because vocational college graduates are prepared to go directly into the world of work. In order for vocational college graduates to be quickly absorbed in the job market, they must be equipped with good skills through practicum. As usual, the implementation of practicum courses, especially at PNUP, is carried out using the hands-on laboratory method. With the Covid-19 pandemic, PNUP took a policy to be able to carry out lectures online. The implementation of practicum activities using various kinds of computer applications in the form of software can increase the flexibility of practicum. This is what underlies an alternative to the implementation of a Remote laboratory (Remote-Lab) which is very suitable for software-based practicum that has efficiency in financing which will support online lectures. The purpose of this research is to analyze several Remote-Lab applications based on remote access / desktop as best practice. This alternative method of Remote-Lab is useful in direct supervision management and control of computers connected to the network in practicum activities specifically in Code-2 and Code-3 courses. The results show that remote access/desktop allows users to connect to a machine (computer/desktop) remotely as if they were sitting in front of the machine in question. Remote-Lab is an easy and practical solution for conducting computer-based theory and practical classes. Through remote-lab lecturers and students can still interact with each other properly using existing desktop access support applications. The convenience felt by students means that this method is easily accepted and learning objectives can still be achieved.
