Implementation of Independent Curriculum in Learning Indonesian in Elementary School

Abstract

Abstract : The implementation of the independent learning curriculum in Indonesian language learning in elementary schools must pay attention to the urgency of the Indonesian language so that its existence does not disappear as a unified language. In the Program For International Student Assessment (PISA) in 2019, Indonesia is ranked sixth from the bottom, namely ranking 74 out of 79 countries in terms of literacy and numeracy. The main focus on learning Indonesian in the independent curriculum is language, literature and thinking. There are four aspects of language that must be mastered by students, namely listening, reading, writing and speaking. This research is a type of literature study research. The data obtained comes from relevant and recent references such as books, articles, journals, proceedings. The results of the study state that in order to realize a learning process that can improve the four aspects of language skills which are emphasized in the independent curriculum, educators must be able to create a differentiated learning process, namely diverse, varied, creative, innovative and fun. Educators can use various learning models and strategies that are relevant to the material being taught. Many strategies can be used, such as inquiry learning strategies, jigsaw learning strategies, paired story learning strategies, field trip learning strategies and roleplaying learning strategies.
