Abstract


This study aims to explain the readiness of teachers in teaching the subject of "manufacturing accounting practicum" in vocational high schools majoring in accounting and explaining whether drill and practice is a learning method that can be used for subjects "manufacturing accounting practices". The subject of "manufacturing accounting practicum" is a new subject taught in vocational high schools since the 2017 curriculum revision where the main competency expected from this subject is students being able to compile the financial statements of manufacturing companies. This research is classified as a descriptive study with participants as many as 35 accounting teachers in vocational high schools in West Sumatra. The results of this study indicate that the readiness of vocational high school accounting teachers in teaching manufacturing accounting practicum subjects is still limited. However, participants in this study believe that drill and practice learning is the right learning method for "manufacturing accounting practicum" subjects. Therefore there is no doubt making drill and practice as an alternative learning method for manufacturing accounting practicum subjects in vocational high schools.
