Abstract

This study aims to analyze the implementation of the Independent learning curriculum for high school students in the Sangihe Islands Regency. This curriculum carries a more flexible and competency-based approach, focusing on empowering students to learn according to their interests and talents. This study uses a qualitative approach with a case study method, involving interviews with principals, teachers, and students as well as direct observation in several schools. The data collected were analyzed thematically to identify supporting and inhibiting factors in curriculum implementation. The results of the study indicate that the support of the principal and teacher readiness are the main factors supporting the implementation of the Independent learning curriculum, with several schools already utilizing technology for more interactive learning. However, the biggest challenges are the lack of teacher understanding of the basic concepts of the curriculum, limited supporting facilities, and limited time to implement project-based learning optimally. Nevertheless, students show enthusiasm for this curriculum because they get more freedom to determine how to learn according to their interests. This study suggests the need for increased training for teachers and the provision of more supportive facilities to maximize curriculum implementation. In addition, closer cooperation between the central and regional governments is essential to create more consistent and effective education policies.

Abstract

This study explores the implementation of the Problem Based Learning (PBL) model in economics subjects at Manado High School. The objective of the research is to examine how PBL influences students' learning experiences, critical thinking, and engagement in economic topics. Using a qualitative descriptive method, data were collected through interviews with teachers and students, classroom observations, and document analysis. The results indicate that PBL enhances students’ problem-solving abilities, promotes active participation, and encourages collaboration in learning. Teachers reported that students became more motivated and better understood economic concepts when learning was contextualized through real-world problems. However, several challenges were identified, including time constraints, varying levels of student preparedness, and the need for teacher training. Overall, the findings suggest that PBL is an effective approach to teaching economics and has the potential to improve the quality of education when implemented with appropriate support and resources.
