Abstract

The low motivation of students to learn mathematics in vocational high schools, especially in the material of mechanical measuring instruments such as vernier calipers, is a challenge in the world of vocational education. This study aims to improve the effectiveness of the use of interactive simulation-based Virtual Labs to improve students' learning motivation. This study uses a quantitative approach, involving 42 students of class X of Mechanical Engineering Vocational High School as research subjects. The instruments used include a learning motivation questionnaire and observation sheets. The results of the study showed that students' learning motivation was in the good category, with an average value of 14.83 and high reliability (Cronbach's Alpha = 0.878). Observations showed that students showed high perseverance, interest, and independence during the learning process using the Virtual Lab. Thus, it can be concluded that the interactive simulation-based Vernier Caliper Virtual Lab is effective in improving students' learning motivation in vocational high schools.
