In this study, using the fuzzy logic method, a stress detection tool was created with body temperature and blood pressure parameters as indicators to determine a person's stress level. This tool uses the LM35DZ sensor to detect body temperature, the MPX5100GP sensor to read blood pressure values, and Arduino Uno as a data processor from sensor readings which are then calculated using the fuzzy logic method as a stress level decision-maker. The resulting output measures blood pressure, body temperature, and the stress level experienced by a person, which will be displayed on the liquid crystal display. Based on the results of testing the body temperature parameter, the highest error generated was 1.17%, and for the blood pressure parameter, the highest error was 2.5% for systole and 0.93% for diastole. Furthermore, testing the stress level displayed on the tool is compared to the depression, anxiety, and stress scales 42 (DASS 42), a psychological stress measuring instrument. From the results of testing the tool with the questionnaire, the average conformity level is 74%.

Introduction: This research aims to analyze and describe the gap between vocational secondary education policies in East Java Province, Indonesia, and the actual situation to realize sustainable development. It is hoped that a regulation can be the right solution to improve the quality of vocational secondary school education and adapt to technological developments and the industry and business world needs. The articles in East Java Governor Regulation Number 22 of 2017 concerning the Revitalization Acceleration of Vocational High Schools in East Java Province still become a serious problem that needs attention. Policy implementation problems of vocational secondary education in East Java Province have not yet been resolved properly, including: (1) lack of communication between schools and the business world and industry caused the difficulty for schools in getting partners. However, this situation impacts students at the time they carry out industrial work practices. Even if they succeed in getting a partner, other problems often happen such as a mismatch between the skills program at school and the substance of the work carried out in industrial work practices. Besides, the duration of industrial work practice is inadequate, because it is generally practiced for less than 1 semester, and quite a few only happened within 3 months; (2) not all residents in East Java have access to quality vocational secondary education services due to the limited capacity of people with weak economic backgrounds, limited number of schools, and limited school capacity; (3) shortage of teachers both in number and competence; (4) there is still a long waiting period for vocational high school graduates to enter the workforce. Theoretical framework: In general, the task of implementation is to establish a link that allows the goals of public policies to be realized as outcomes of governmental activity (Grindle, 2017). Policy implementation is the meaning of implementing laws where various actors, organizations, procedures, and techniques work together to achieve policies or program goals. (Stewart, Jr., J., Hedge, D.M., & Lester, 2008). Implementation is the process of translating policy into action. The implementation process is complicated and complex (Barrett, 2004). This needs to be understood because the implementation process involves the interaction of many variables as well as formulating delivery activity mechanisms. Complexity in the process often raises several problems. Edward III (1980) revealed that "Because the four factors are operating simultaneously and interacting with each other to aid or hinder policy implementation the ideal approach would be to reflect this complexity by discussing them all at once." This means that policy implementation works simultaneously and interacts with each other to support and hinder policy implementation, so the ideal approach is to reflect complexity by discussing factors that support the success of policy implementation which include communication, resources, implementing attitudes (disposition), and bureaucratic structures. The policy implementation model can be explained and analyzed by looking for relationships among the dimensions that form it, so it can explain an effective implementation. Method: The research method used is qualitative conducted through interviews, observation, and document data. Interviews were conducted by stakeholders from the public and private sectors at regional and local levels. Researchers conducted document analysis related to regulations on the revitalization of vocational secondary education. Results and Conclusions: The research results show the high rate of educated unemployment is caused by several aspects. Many vocational high schools do not have job training centers and 55 percent of vocational high schools do not have laboratories. However, not all aspects are strong, such as communication, human resources, implementing attitudes, and bureaucratic structure. Moreover, researchers found that a lack of coordination among actors caused the implementation process to run imperfectly.

IntroductionThis study examines the social impact and psychological effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the growth of adolescents students, aged 11–13, on well-being and learning.MethodsSaid review, therefore, will consider all the report of scientific works published since 2020 on the following platforms: SCOPUS, PsycoInfo, and Web of Science. Specifically, the research has selected all studies concerning students aged 11–13. Furthermore, the authors have restricted the scope of the study to two fundamental aspects of the above-mentioned subjects, such as their physical and psychological well-being and didactic learning following the COVID-19 pandemic. The justification for choosing such themes lies in the fact that the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic and the ensuing measures adopted to curb its spread have had -and very likely will continue having- sizable repercussions in the life of each individual, especially in students considered, whose psychological and physical well-being has been considerably affected.ResultsIn particular, during the peak of the pandemic and its subsequent phases, the various measures issued to limit contagion have completely compromised and disregarded the rights of children and youngsters. Suddenly, leisure, sport, play, relations, and socialization disappeared from their lives. Besides, in the early stages of the pandemic, remote teaching replaced face-to-face teaching, later to become an intermittent system in the red- and orange-labelled areas of the country. Consequently, such measures have severely limited opportunities for learning, growth, curiosity and creating relationships that are typical of both a school and outside environment. Concerning the well-being of the subjects considered, a review of the target literature indicates a wide range of psychological and physical disorders, such as malaise, eating and sleep disorders, addiction to games, internet, alcohol, and drugs. For what regards, instead, the realm of learning, most studies highlight a diminished school performance as the main implication of remote teaching. Furthermore, a remarkable number of studies reveals substantial social inequalities; specifically, students coming from middle class families have managed to maintain higher quality educational standards in a critical context such as the pandemic, while those students coming from socially disadvantaged families have had fewer learning opportunities both in terms of time and range of experiences (due to lack of electronic devices, Internet connectivity, homework, continuity of after-school activities). In summary, if the school system pre-COVID-19 already presented significant limitations in its ability to reduce existing social inequalities, school closures during lockdowns pose enormous challenges in developing effective policies to compensate learning losses and inequalities.DiscussionTherefore, based on the results shown, the necessity arises of an emergency plan with social and educational objectives to restore those social, emotional, and cognitive abilities that are compromised. In general, it is the responsibility of countries and governments to guarantee the right to education in these difficult times, while avoiding any type of inequalities and establishing a digital learning system, that allows to face situations such as those generated by the Coronavirus, thus preventing those situations of serious anxiety and stress that have affected most subjects.
