<![CDATA[This study aims to investigate how 21st-century learning is implemented in Social Studies instruction at SMP Negeri 2 Balung, Jember. The research method used is a case study with a qualitative approach. Data were collected through classroom observations, interviews with teachers, and analysis of school curriculum documents. The results show that implementing 21st-century learning at SMP Negeri 2 Balung, particularly in the Social Studies subject, includes key elements such as student collaboration, problem-solving, media literacy, and critical thinking skills. Active student engagement in the learning process and the integration of information technology are strongly emphasized in efforts to enhance the relevance of education to contemporary needs. However, challenges such as limited resources and teachers' understanding of 21st-century learning concepts remain obstacles that must be addressed. This study provides insights into how schools can adapt 21st-century learning approaches in the context of Social Studies instruction at the junior high school level. The implications of this research may contribute to developing more relevant and effective curricula and teaching practices in the future.]]>
