The main problem in education today is the lack of effectiveness in the learning process. This can be seen from the average student learning outcomes which are always still low. Especially for vocational high school students who emphasize learning skills in order to produce work-ready graduates, but it is inversely proportional to the facts in the field. Low learning outcomes are indicated because the learning conditions are still conventional (lectures, practicum, and discussions) where teachers are still a source of learning (teacher centered). This study aims to determine the effect of the project based blended learning model on learning outcomes of vocational high school students. This research was conducted through a literature review and relevant research results and was continued through a Focus Group Discussion (FGD). From the research it was found that there was a significant positive influence between the variable model of project based blended learning and student learning outcomes, which means that student learning outcomes can be improved through the application of a project based blended learning model.

<span>This study aims to replicate and extend a previous study which was conducted on primary school students' asynchronous online project-based learning. In this study, 276 high school students' participation and interaction in a project-based learning environment was mediated by an asynchronous computer-mediated communication (CMC) tool. The students' high participation revealed their adaptability to this teacher-facilitated learning environment. However, in terms of interaction, these students' notes were found congregating mainly in phase I (comparing and sharing information, 82.7%) but lesser extent in the subsequent phase II (the discovery and exploration of dissonance or inconsistency among ideas, concepts or statement, 13.5%), phase III (negotiation of meaning/co-construction of knowledge, 3.7%) and beyond when these notes were analysed using Gunawardena's Interaction Analysis Model (IAM) (1997). These findings were compared, discussed and referenced to the earlier research conducted in the primary school to surface gaps for future research that will focus on addressing obstacles to students' learning issues pertaining to participation and interaction socially and cognitively in such a learning environment.</span>

<p align="justify">The learning process is a part that plays an important role in the success of learning. The selection of the right method is one way for the learning process to work as expected. Peer tutoring method is one of the interactive learning methods involving students who are competent in the material taught so they can provide learning guidance to other students. This study aims to improve student learning outcomes in the realm of knowledge and skills through the application of peer tutoring methods. This research is a Classroom Action Research (CAR) conducted in 2 cycles with 4 stages, namely planning, implementation, observation and reflection. The subjects in this study were 34 vocational high school students. Data collection methods used include observation, tests, performance and interviews. Test the validity of the data using data triangulation. The research data was analyzed using a comparative descriptive percentage analysis technique. From the data obtained shows that the application of peer tutoring methods can improve student learning outcomes by 88.23% in the realm of knowledge and 91.17% in skills. From the results of the study it can be concluded that the application of peer tutoring methods can improve the learning outcomes of Vocational High School students.</p>
