Abstract

The Merdeka Curriculum emphasizes flexibility in creating learning activities that accommodate student development, leverage technology, and strengthen Pancasila values. Prospective teachers’ readiness to implement the Merdeka Curriculum can be confirmed through the Microteaching course. This research aims to determine the readiness of prospective biology teachers at Universitas Tanjungpura to implement the Merdeka Curriculum by examining their difficulties in developing biology learning tools in the Microteaching course. This research is classified as mixed method and involved 47 Biology Education students at Universitas Tanjungpura as the sample, taken through total sampling. The data collection technique used was a validated questionnaire consisting of eight aspects: “Development of Teaching Materials,” “Dimensions of the Pancasila Student Profile,” “Clarity of Learning Objectives,” “Organization of Learning Content,” “Learning Media and Student Worksheets,” “Learning Syntax,” “Assessment,” and “Evaluation and Follow-up Actions.” The overall average is 78.44%, with the highest in the “Clarity of Learning Objectives” aspect (81.78%, strongly ready) and the lowest in the “Assessment” aspect (74.20%, ready). The results indicate that Biology Education students at Universitas Tanjungpura are ready to develop biology learning tools for the Merdeka Curriculum. However, the results also suggest the need to strengthen prospective biology teachers’ holistic understanding of the Merdeka Curriculum.

Abstract

Background: Prospective biology teachers often struggle to acquire an adequate level of knowledge and perceptions regarding basic teaching skills, resulting in limitations in applying them. Objectives: This research aims to assess the knowledge and perceptions of prospective biology teachers regarding basic teaching skills at Universitas Tanjungpura, one of the leading universities in West Kalimantan that offers the Biology Education study program. Methods: This research is descriptive quantitative, involving 68 students, selected through total sampling. The instruments were a test and a questionnaire that integrated the revised Bloom’s taxonomy and eight basic teaching skills, assessed for feasibility by five experts. Results: The results from the test revealed an average percentage of correct answers of 87.55% (good) and a grade of 80.04 (very good). The questionnaire showed an average percentage of 82.01% (proficient). These findings indicate that although the results show adequate mastery of basic teaching skills based on knowledge and perceptions, it has not reached the maximum achievement and needs to be optimized. Conclusion: It is necessary to improve the design of the Basic Biology Teaching Skills course. The course should not only simulate basic teaching skills but also optimize their achievement across each cognitive dimension of the revised Bloom’s taxonomy.
