Abstract

This research analyzes the effectiveness of the Merdeka Curriculum in improving students' learning independence at high school and elementary school levels, with case studies at MAN 1 Ternate and MIN 1 Ternate. Using a qualitative approach, the research collected data through in-depth interviews, observations, documentation, and focus group discussions. The results showed significant differences in the level of learning independence between the two educational levels. High school students achieved an average learning independence score of 78.5%, while elementary students reached 62.7%. These differences were influenced by cognitive development factors, teacher readiness, and external support. High school students demonstrated better ability in planning learning, conducting independent learning, and evaluating learning outcomes. Meanwhile, elementary students required more intensive guidance but showed high enthusiasm in project-based learning. The research concludes that the implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum needs to be adapted to students' developmental characteristics at each educational level, emphasizing increased teacher readiness, especially at the elementary level, to maximize curriculum effectiveness in improving learning independence.

Abstract

This study aims to improve students’ learning motivation through the use of the Akidah Akhlak textbook based on the 2013 Curriculum among eighth-grade students at MTs Babussalam Waisakai. The research employed Classroom Action Research (CAR) conducted in two cycles consisting of planning, action, observation, and reflection phases. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, and analyzed qualitatively using the Miles and Huberman model. The findings indicate a significant increase in students’ learning motivation, demonstrated by higher levels of activeness, questioning, discussion participation, and understanding of the material. The use of textbooks combined with discussion and contextual approaches effectively stimulated interest and supported the internalization of moral values. Thus, printed textbooks remain relevant and effective learning media for enhancing students’ motivation and character.
