Abstract

This study aims to reveal the implementation of the Kurikulum Merdeka [Freedom Curriculum] at the State Senior High School [SMAN] 3 Sungai Kakap which is implemented without completely changing the components of the 2013 Curriculum. This research used the qualitative method with the type of case study on the 10th grade students. The data were collected in the following stages: pre-research, research and post-research. The results of the research show that SMAN 3 Sungai Kakap only implements the Freedom Curriculum in 10th grade; not in 11th grade and 12th grade. This is because it is still a try-out period. The implementation of the Freedom Curriculum is considered by the school to be simpler than the 2013 curriculum. The project-based P5 program at SMAN 3 Sungai Kakap is carried out by students on Fridays with exhibitions of practicum learning outcomes. Even though the Freedom Curriculum has just been implemented at SMAN 3 Sungai Kakap, teachers have received more and better information on student achievement. However, it always requires good experience and knowledge from teachers and educators at the school. The implementation of the Freedom Curriculum at SMAN 3 Sungai Kakap, in addition to the 2013 curriculum, is in the form of a practicum program and teachers"™ collaboration with each other. In addition to the learning process, it still covers the components of the 2013 curriculum. In fact, the Freedom Curriculum complements the 2013 curriculum, such as building the character of local wisdom and values, and increasing students potential, interest, and talents that continue to be pursued in the Freedom Curriculum at SMAN 3 Sungai Kakap.

Abstract

This study explores the effectiveness of an Extensive Listening (EL) program using ER Central in improving university students' TOEFL listening comprehension. The program was implemented for one semester with 61 English course students, who underwent pre- and post-tests using the TOEFL listening section. The EL program, inspired by Extensive Reading (ER), emphasized regular exposure to authentic audio materials supplemented with text support. ER Central facilitated material delivery, progress tracking, and quiz administration. Findings revealed a significant improvement in students' listening scores, with an average increase of 26.89 points from pre-test (378.52) to post-test (405.41). A paired t-test confirmed the statistical significance of this improvement (t = -5.085, p < 0.001). However, correlations between the number of quizzes completed, average quiz scores, and score improvements were weak and insignificant, suggesting that frequent quizzes alone may not directly enhance listening comprehension. Pedagogically, the findings suggest that technology-supported extensive listening can promote learner autonomy and consistent practice, especially when aligned with standardized test formats such as TOEFL. Despite its success, limitations include the absence of a control group and the restricted generalizability of results. The findings underscore the need for tailored materials aligned with TOEFL question formats and a holistic approach integrating diverse listening strategies. This research contributes to understanding how technology-enhanced EL programs can optimize language learning outcomes.
