Abstract

This study examines the role of dance learning in improving the visual and kinesthetic creativity of elementary school students in the implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum. Dance learning in elementary schools still tends to focus on movement imitation, causing students’ creativity to develop less optimally. Therefore, this study aims to analyze dance learning as a strategy to improve students’ visual and kinesthetic creativity. This study employed the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method. Data were collected through scientific article searches from Google Scholar, SINTA, Garuda, and ResearchGate using keywords related to dance learning, visual creativity, kinesthetic creativity, and elementary schools. The analyzed articles were published between 2020 and 2025. After the selection process, 10 relevant articles were analyzed using a qualitative-descriptive approach. The findings show that dance learning through movement exploration and improvisation can improve students’ imagination, movement coordination, self-confidence, and active participation. In addition, dance learning in the Merdeka Curriculum supports creative and student-centered learning.
