IMPLEMENTATION OF THE INDEPENDENT CURRICULUM AND THE ROLE OF TEACHERS IN STRENGTHENING THE PROFILE OF PANCASILA STUDENTS

Abstract

This study aims to examine the implementation of the Independent Curriculum and the role of teachers in strengthening the Pancasila student profile in elementary schools. The method used was a literature study, reviewing various reference sources, including books and recent scientific journals. The results show that the implementation of the Independent Curriculum has a positive impact on increasing student engagement and strengthening character values. Teachers play a crucial role in designing innovative learning and integrating the values of the Pancasila student profile. However, several obstacles remain in the curriculum's implementation, such as limited teacher understanding and a lack of supporting facilities. Therefore, support from various parties is needed to optimize the implementation of the Independent Curriculum.
