<![CDATA[The transformation of teaching methods from conventional to interactive has become a critical issue in improving the quality of learning in elementary schools, particularly in the context of 21st-century learning demands and the implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum. This study aims to analyze the process of transforming teaching methods and their impact on student participation and understanding. The study employed a qualitative case study design at SD NU Sekaran, involving the principal, teachers, students, and educational staff as informants. Data collection techniques included observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation, with data analysis conducted through reduction, presentation, and drawing of conclusions. The results indicate that instruction is still dominated by conventional methods; however, the implementation of interactive methods—such as group discussions and visual media—significantly enhances student engagement and understanding.
