Abstract

The transition from the 2013 Curriculum to the Merdeka Curriculum in Indonesia represents a significant shift in the educational landscape, aiming to provide greater flexibility and autonomy for schools to adapt teaching to student needs and local contexts. This study examines the impact of this curriculum change at SMAN 1 Sukadana, Ciamis Regency, focusing on its effects on pedagogical approaches, student engagement, and educational outcomes. A quantitative descriptive approach was employed, with data collected through questionnaires distributed to teachers and students. The findings indicate that the adoption of the Merdeka Curriculum has encouraged teachers to implement more innovative and interactive teaching methods, such as project-based and cooperative learning, which have significantly increased student engagement and motivation. However, challenges such as inadequate teacher readiness, resistance to new methodologies, and limited infrastructure were identified as key barriers to effective implementation. These findings align with Kotter's organizational change theory, emphasizing the importance of systematic support, continuous professional development, and collaboration among educators and school leadership to facilitate successful curriculum adoption. The study also applies constructivist learning theory and the ARCS motivation model, demonstrating that student-centered approaches enhance learning experiences and outcomes. Despite its contributions, the study acknowledges limitations in sample size and scope, suggesting the need for further longitudinal research to comprehensively assess the long-term impact of the Merdeka Curriculum across diverse educational settings. The findings provide valuable insights for policymakers and educators in refining curriculum strategies to better support teaching and learning processes.

Abstract

Abstract: This study discusses school strategic management in optimizing inclusive education in public schools, with case studies at SMKN 1 Palasah and SMPN 2 Dawuan, Majalengka Regency. The background of this research is the need for appropriate strategies so that students with special needs receive fair and suitable educational services. The purpose of this study is to identify how schools plan, implement, and evaluate inclusive strategies, and to compare their impact on school culture. This research applied a qualitative descriptive method with data collected through interviews, observations, and documentation. The findings show that both schools are committed to inclusive education, but differ in readiness and implementation. SMKN 1 Palasah tends to apply simple and situational adjustments, while SMPN 2 Dawuan implements a more systematic process including assessment, situation analysis, strategy formulation, implementation, and monitoring. The impact at SMKN 1 Palasah is limited to improving student independence, while SMPN 2 Dawuan shows broader impacts on academic and social development as well as the creation of a more inclusive school culture. The conclusion emphasizes that well-planned strategies, facilities, teacher competence, and collaboration with parents and stakeholders are key to inclusive education success. Schools are recommended to develop clearer strategies, establish special inclusion teams, provide teacher training, and conduct regular evaluations to ensure effective and sustainable inclusive practices.
