Abstract

This research aims to see what problems teachers are facing in teaching Mathematics at SDN 3 Banda Aceh City and what solutions are provided by teachers to students while the teaching and learning process is taking place in the classroom. The research method used is a qualitative approach, with the type of research data collection using observation, interviews and documentation methods with research subjects namely grade 1 elementary school teachers. The results of the research show that there are several problems experienced by many teachers in teaching mathematics, including:1. What are the factors that make it difficult for us as teachers to teach Mathematics? 2. What curriculum is currently used in schools? 3. How interested are students in taking mathematics lessons? 4. Do students easily memorize formulas? 5. How do teachers develop talent for teaching mathematics ?. The solutions offered regarding the difficulties faced are: 1) Teachers must provide students with learning motivation for basic Mathematics concepts; 2) Teachers must understand the meaning of independent curriculum and can explore it with students without coercion; 3) Teachers must be more creative in using appropriate learning media, methods and strategies to make it easier for students to memorize mathematical formulas; 5) Teachers must participate actively in teacher working groups (KKG).

Abstract

The Independent Curriculum is a learning framework designed to provide teachers with the flexibility to design the teaching and learning process based on students' needs, interests, and potential. The independent curriculum is an independent program that emphasizes context-based learning, character building through the Pancasila Student Profile, and a differentiation approach that allows students to learn at a pace and method that suits their abilities. Through an adaptive and flexible approach, the Independent Curriculum aims to create a more relevant, meaningful, and contextual learning experience for students. Fractions are one of the important materials in basic mathematics because they provide a foundation for understanding more complex concepts such as decimals, percentages, and algebra. In the independent curriculum, this separate material aims to improve conceptual understanding, critical thinking skills, and application skills through a context-based approach and strengthen the Pancasila student profile. This article analyzes the implementation of the Independent program in distributed learning in elementary schools, including planning, implementing, and assessing learning. The results of the analysis show that the independent curriculum provides teachers with the flexibility to develop innovative learning strategies, such as Real-World Mathematics (RME) and project-based learning, so that students can connect fractions to everyday situations. However, the challenge is the lack of teacher understanding of the new approach and limited learning resources are still obstacles in its implementation. This article recommends teacher training and the development of contextual learning materials to support the successful implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum in fraction learning.
