<![CDATA[The purpose of this study was to describe of teacher’ stages of concern in applicating curriculum innovation. The approach used in this study was a descriptive study. The number of population of this study were 500 primary school teachers. Meanwhile, the research sample were 50 teachers. A random sampling technique in the form of the lottery was used to get samples. Data were collected, classified, processed and analyzed by using the norms of the group in the calculation of percentile. The findings of this study were 42 % of teachers in a stage of concern called at the stage of awareness, 0 % of teachers have a stage of concern at the stage of I stage of information; 18 % of teachers have a stage of concern at the stage of personnel;10 % of teachers have a stage of concern at the stage of management); 16 % of teachers have a stage of concern at the stage of consequence; 6 % of teachers have a stage of concern at the stage of collaboration; and 12 % of teachers have a stage of concern at the stage of refocusing. The overall respondents have an average score of 2.06 (two point zero six). This means that their stage of concern for the implementation of the curriculum innovation is still low. They experience uncertainty in making decisions to adopt it. It was caused by (a) the lack of understanding of primary school teachers on information received, (b) lack of examples and evidence of the benefits of accepted curriculum innovation in school practices, (c) lack of training by trainers in applying new curriculum, (d) so complex in evaluating and (e) the curriculum is continuously changing.]]>
