<![CDATA[The application of the principles of Nature and the Nature of the Times is based on Ki Hadjar Dewantara's philosophy. This research aims to analyze the implementation of these two principles in the current education system, particularly in creating a balance between developing 21st-century skills and maintaining students' fundamental values. The research method used is a literature study examining Ki Hadjar Dewantara's works, relevant scientific journals, and national education policy documents such as the Freedom Curriculum. Research results show that although the principles of Nature and the Nature of the Times serve as philosophical foundations in education policy, their implementation still faces concrete challenges such as an evaluation system that is too cognitively oriented and teachers' limited competence in implementing student-centered learning.
