Abstract

The curriculum plays a vital role in every level of education. This research specifically focuses on examining and understanding the implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum in Integrated Natural and Social Sciences (IPAS) learning at an elementary school. Adopting a descriptive qualitative approach, this study involved the principal and fourth-grade teachers as key informants. Data collection techniques included interviews, observation, and documentation. The collected data were analyzed through reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawing. The research results indicate the success of the elementary school in implementing the Merdeka Curriculum, making it a "sekolah penggerak" (driving school). One of the curriculum's innovations is the integration of Science (IPA) and Social Studies (IPS) into IPAS, with a per-semester learning format that combines two chapters of IPA and two chapters of IPS to prevent student boredom. This curriculum provides significant flexibility for both teachers and students in the learning process, with IPA and IPS assessments now integrated as IPAS in report cards.

Abstract

This research aims to describe the basic skills of teachers in implementing integrated thematic learning methods, especially in natural science (IPA) learning content at SD Negeri 2 Mojomulyo in class 3. The method used is qualitative descriptive, with data collection through in-depth interviews with the class teacher as the main resource, documentation and literature study. The research results show that teachers apply various approaches, such as lectures, discussions, audio-visual media, and simple teaching aids to support students' understanding. Teachers also face various challenges, including students' unstable character and students' lack of courage in conveying understanding independently. Under these conditions, teachers continue to strive to evaluate students' overall understanding through oral tests and direct observation. This research recommends strengthening teacher soft skills professional training in the use of creative learning media and adaptive evaluation strategies to increase the effectiveness of integrated thematic learning at the elementary school level, especially in science learning content.

Abstract

Pembelajaran mendalam melalui pendekatan STEAM (Sains, Teknologi, Rekayasa, Seni, dan Matematika) adalah strategi pembelajaran inovatif yang menekankan integrasi lintas disiplin, berpikir kritis, kreativitas, kolaborasi, dan pemecahan masalah dunia nyata. Meskipun pendekatan ini berpotensi mengembangkan kompetensi abad ke-21, penerapannya di sekolah masih menghadapi tantangan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi dan menganalisis hambatan yang dihadapi guru dalam menerapkan pembelajaran mendalam berbasis pendekatan STEAM. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kuantitatif deskriptif dengan skala likert dan teknik pengumpulan data melalui penyebaran kuesioner kepada guru sekolah dasar dan analisis dokumen yang melibatkan guru sekolah dasar. Analisis data dilakukan melalui reduksi data, penyajian data, dan penarikan kesimpulan. Temuan menunjukkan bahwa hambatan utama meliputi: (1) pemahaman guru yang terbatas tentang konsep STEAM, desain proyek, dan penilaian autentik; (2) fasilitas pembelajaran yang kurang memadai, seperti laboratorium, perangkat teknologi, dan bahan ajar; (3) waktu pembelajaran yang terbatas, sehingga pelaksanaan proyek tidak lengkap; (4) kurangnya program pengembangan profesional dan pembimbingan; serta (5) rendahnya motivasi siswa dan literasi teknologi dalam pembelajaran berbasis proyek. Tantangan-tantangan ini menghambat integrasi antar bidang dan menghalangi pengembangan kreativitas, keterampilan pemecahan masalah, dan kolaborasi siswa. Studi ini menyimpulkan bahwa penerapan STEAM yang berhasil memerlukan perencanaan yang sistematis, fasilitas yang memadai, peningkatan kompetensi guru, dan dukungan kurikulum melalui kolaborasi antar bidang. Temuan ini diharapkan dapat menjadi acuan bagi sekolah dan pembuat kebijakan dalam merancang program pembelajaran berbasis STEAM yang efektif dan berkelanjutan.
