Abstract

The implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum in Indonesia marks a significant shift in educational policy, emphasizing flexibility and student-centered learning. This study investigates elementary school teachers' attitudes towards this new curriculum in Pematangsiantar, aiming to understand its practical implementation and challenges. Using a mixed-methods approach, data was collected from 20 randomly selected teachers through Google Forms questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. The questionnaire, based on a 5-point Likert scale, comprised 20 statements assessing cognitive understanding, affective engagement, and psychomotor application of the curriculum. Results show that 80-90% of teachers demonstrate a high level of understanding and positive engagement with the curriculum's principles. Qualitative analysis revealed teachers' enthusiasm for the curriculum's flexibility but highlighted concerns about resource limitations and the need for ongoing professional development. The study concludes that while teachers are generally receptive to the Merdeka Curriculum, targeted support and resources are crucial for its successful implementation. These findings provide valuable insights for educational policymakers and school administrators in refining curriculum implementation strategies.

Abstract

This research investigates the perspectives of English Education Department students at the University of HKBP Nommensen regarding cover letter writing within the English Correspondence course. Recognizing the importance of cover letters in professional communication and career development, the study aims to assess students' understanding, challenges, and confidence in mastering this skill. Using a qualitative descriptive methodology, data were collected from 25 students through questionnaires and from 10 students through semi-structured interviews. Key findings reveal that while students acknowledge the relevance of cover letter writing to their future careers, they face challenges in organizing content, maintaining professionalism, and tailoring letters to specific job requirements. The research highlights the effectiveness of course materials but identifies a need for more interactive and practical teaching methods, such as workshops, peer reviews, and real-world applications. The findings offer actionable recommendations to enhance the teaching and learning process, ensuring students are better prepared for professional communication and the competitive job market.
