Abstract

This study aims to analyze the learning difficulties faced by students in the subject of Natural and Social Sciences (IPAS) within the implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum. Through a literature review of various sources, it was found that students encounter challenges in understanding abstract concepts that integrate aspects of both natural and social sciences. Factors contributing to these learning difficulties include low motivation, limited learning media, a lack of varied teaching strategies, and the suboptimal role of teachers in applying appropriate learning approaches. To address these issues, collaboration among teachers, students, and parents is essential, along with enhancing teachers' competencies in developing adaptive and engaging teaching methods. Thus, it is hoped that IPAS learning can proceed more effectively and enjoyably, thereby improving students' understanding and skills in line with the objectives of the Merdeka Curriculum.

This study aims to describe the improvement in student learning outcomes in IPAS lessons using the Think Pair Share (TPS) model supported by Google Sites in the fourth-grade class at SDN 20 Sinapa Piliang, Solok City. This study is a Classroom Action Research (CAR) project using both qualitative and quantitative approaches. The study was conducted in two cycles, each comprising planning, implementation, observation, and reflection. The research subjects were 20 fourth-grade students at SDN 20 Sinapa Piliang in Solok City. Data collection techniques included both test and non-test methods, and data analysis was conducted using both qualitative and quantitative approaches. The results showed that the average score for the teaching module in Cycle I was 87.5% (B), which increased to 96.43% (SB) in Cycle II. The average score for teacher activities in Cycle I was 87.5% (B), increasing to 95% (SB) in Cycle II; the average score for student activities in Cycle I was 87.5% (B), increasing to 95% (SB) in Cycle II. Learning outcomes in the attitude aspect for Cycle I averaged 82.49 (C), increasing to 90.9 (B) in Cycle II; the knowledge aspect for Cycle I averaged 81.75 (C), increasing to 90.5 (B) in Cycle II; and the skill aspect for Cycle I averaged 83.30 (C), increasing to 91.64 (SB) in Cycle II.
