Abstract
AbstractThe goal of this study is to describe the career adaptability profile of the Madrasah Ibtidaiyah Teacher Education students, as well as their developmental issues and alternatives. This is a quantitative study with a population of all the Madrasah Ibtidaiyah Teacher Education students at one of Cirebon City's universities, and a sample size of 70 individuals. Questionnaires and interview guides were utilized as research tools. The research data was then examined utilizing descriptive-analytic approaches, both quantitative and qualitative. The results revealed that the students of the Madrasah Ibtidaiyah Teacher Education had a modest career adaptability score, with a percentage of 47.14 percent. In terms of gender, female students' average career adaptability score was greater than male students' average career adaptability score. Elements of career concern, career curiosity, career self-control, and elements of career contribution are all positive aspects of career adaptability. However, there is still room for improvement in terms of career self-confidence, career collaboration, and professional continuity. Conducting mentorship programs for students in preparing career plans, determining and selecting careers, enhancing the role of academic supervisors, and establishing a student career development center are all options for improving student careers.Keywords: career adaptability, alternative career development, students. AbstrakPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan secara komprehensif profil adaptabilitas karir mahasiswa Pendidikan Guru Madrasah Ibtidaiyah beserta masalah dan alternatif pengembangannya.
