Abstract

This research uses document review and literature review methods. The document review was carried out by analyzing official documents related to the Independent Curriculum, such as Minister of Education, Culture, Research and Technology Regulation Number 34 of 2022 concerning National Standards for Junior High School Education and Regulation of the Minister of Education, Culture, Research and Technology Number 35 of 2022 concerning National High School Education Standards. The literature review was carried out by analyzing previous research writings about the Independent Curriculum, student-centred learning, and independent learning. The results of the analysis show that the Independent Curriculum and independent learning are closely related. The Independent Curriculum is an effort to realize independent learning. This can be seen from several main characteristics of the Independent Curriculum, such as: (a Focus on essential material that can be studied in depth. (b) Providing freedom to teachers and schools in developing curriculum and learning. (c) Accommodating students' needs and interests. Centred learning on students is one of the strategies that can be used to implement the Merdeka Curriculum. Student-centred learning emphasizes the active role of students in the learning process. Students are not only objects of learning, but also learning subjects who have an important role in determining the direction of learning. Implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum and independent learning requires a change in the learning paradigm. Teachers must shift from their role as transmitters of information to facilitators of learning. Teachers must be able to create a learning environment that supports students to learn actively and independently.

Abstract

This study explores the critical role of traditional foods in shaping the social and cultural identity of Indonesian society, with a focus on strategies for their preservation amidst modern challenges. The primary objective is to examine the interconnection between traditional foods and cultural practices, analysing their symbolic meanings and the threats posed by globalization and urbanization. Employing a document study approach, this research reviews relevant literature, journals, and historical records to understand definitions, concepts, and case studies related to traditional foods and their role in cultural identity. The analysis highlights the multifaceted roles of traditional foods in Indonesian society. Beyond serving as sustenance, these foods hold symbolic significance in rituals, ceremonies, and daily life, representing values such as unity, respect, and heritage. Specific examples include the use of tumpeng in celebrations and lemang during cultural ceremonies, which embody shared traditions and reinforce social bonds. However, modernization and shifting lifestyles have led to a decline in traditional food practices, posing a threat to their preservation. The findings underscore the urgency of preserving traditional foods as a vital component of Indonesia’s diverse cultural legacy. Strategies such as integrating traditional food education into school curricula, promoting traditional cuisines through cultural festivals, and leveraging technology to document recipes and practices are essential for safeguarding this heritage. The study concludes that preserving traditional foods requires heightened societal awareness and proactive efforts to balance modernization with cultural conservation. This research contributes to understanding traditional foods as a cornerstone of Indonesian identity and offers practical recommendations for their sustained relevance.

Abstract

The rise of Decentralized Finance (DeFi) represents a transformative shift in the global financial landscape, challenging traditional financial models and offering new possibilities for a more inclusive and efficient financial system. This study aims to explore the opportunities and challenges that DeFi poses to the conventional financial sector, focusing on its impact on banking, credit systems, investments, and payment systems. A mixed-methods approach was employed, including secondary data analysis, expert interviews, and first-hand experience with DeFi protocols such as lending, borrowing, and arbitrage. The findings highlight the significant potential of DeFi in creating alternative financial models that can increase financial inclusion, enhance access to capital, and reduce transaction costs. Recent data indicates that the Total Value Locked (TVL) in DeFi platforms has surged to over $50 billion as of January 2025, reflecting growing adoption. Additionally, daily transaction volumes across major DeFi platforms have reached approximately $10 billion, with active users exceeding 4 million globally. However, the research also identifies critical challenges, including regulatory uncertainty, security vulnerabilities, and the complexity of DeFi platforms, which pose barriers to mainstream adoption. This paper contributes to the understanding of how DeFi can reshape the financial ecosystem, offering insights into its future potential, the risks involved, and the steps required to address the existing challenges. Furthermore, it underscores the need for ongoing research into the regulatory aspects of DeFi and its collaboration with traditional financial institutions.
