Then the use of learning models is also not optimal because differentiated learning has not been implemented. Regarding teaching media and teaching materials, teachers have used them, however, this is not the work of the teachers themselves. 2) The implementation of the Independent Learning curriculum at SMPN 1 Sitellu Tali Urang Jehe means that the teacher has created a teaching module and understands the content in this teaching module, but the teaching module created by the teacher is not in accordance with the teacher's manual in hand. For learning media, teachers have used innovative video-based media, but the videos used are not their own work. Regarding the implementation learning model, some teachers have used innovative learning models, but some still use conventional models. 3) The evaluation carried out takes the form of supervision, where supervision is carried out by the school principal to evaluate the extent to which the implementation of the Merdeka curriculum is implemented.
