<![CDATA[In Indonesia, the Independent Curriculum (Kurikulum Merdeka) was introduced as a response to challenges, but its successful implementation depends heavily on its integration with a deep learning approach. This study aims to analyze the relationship between epistemology, pedagogy, and deep learning in the Independent Curriculum through a philosophically based literature review. The analysis shows that epistemology serves as a conceptual foundation that determines perspectives on the nature of knowledge, pedagogy serves as an implementation bridge that translates philosophical foundations into learning strategies, while deep learning is the ultimate goal of conceptual understanding, critical reflection, interconceptual relationships, and the application of knowledge in real contexts.
