Guidance and Counselling Study Program Satya Christian Wacana University, p. 149 - 160This research is a quasi experiment that uses a pre-test and post-test control group. It is conducted at Christian Middle School 2 Salatiga. The purpose of this research is to find out whether a computer assisted career information service module can improve the career planning ability of 8th grade students from Christian Middle School 2 Salatiga. The research subjects are 14 students who have average and low career planning ability. They are divided into two random groups, an experiment group and a control group, with each group consisting of 7 students. Both groups undergo a homogeneity test with a result of P=1 (p>0.050), which means there is no significant difference, so that both groups can become research subjects. The data gathering method used in this research is a Career Planning Ability Scale that is arranged based on the Super Theory (Winkel & Sri Hastuti, 2006) and consists of 40 items. The data analysis technique applied is the Mann Whitney Test with the assistance of the SPSS for Windows Release 16.0 program. From the analysis results, it can be concluded that there are differences in career planning ability between the experimental group and the control group at Christian Middle School 2 Salatiga. The differences are seen from variations in the post-test results of the experimental group and the control group of p=0.002
