Q & A

What is the main topic of the video series?

The video series is focused on the implementation of the 'Kurikulum Merdeka' at the high school level, discussing its structure, time allocation, and the process of preparing for and selecting subject areas for students.

What are the two main types of learning in the 'Kurikulum Merdeka' for high school?

The two main types of learning in the 'Kurikulum Merdeka' for high school are 'intracurricular' (traditional classroom learning) and 'co-curricular' (project-based learning focused on strengthening the Pancasila student profile).

How does project-based learning impact subject time allocation?

For many subjects, 20-30% of the time is allocated to project-based learning. For example, in Islamic Education (PAI), there are 3 hours, with 2 hours for intracurricular and 1 hour for project-based learning.

Why are some subjects allocated fewer weeks for teaching?

Certain subjects like Pancasila, English, and Arts are allocated fewer weeks (27 weeks instead of 36) due to the integration of project-based learning, which reduces the total number of effective weeks for these subjects.

How are science subjects (IPA) taught in the 'Kurikulum Merdeka'?

Science subjects (IPA) are not separated into specific subjects initially but are divided into three options for teaching: Block system (separate weeks for each subject), Integrative system (combined teaching of all three subjects), or traditional separated subjects (Physics, Chemistry, Biology taught individually).

What is the approach for teaching social studies (IPS) in high school?

Social studies (IPS) subjects, such as Sociology, Economics, History, and Geography, are taught similarly to IPA, with options for teaching in blocks, integrative systems, or as separate subjects.

How is Informatics treated in the 'Kurikulum Merdeka'?

Informatics is now a mandatory subject, and it is emphasized that it is broader than just 'IT' (Information Technology), including aspects like data science, algorithms, and computing, which are critical for students to understand in the modern world.

How are elective subjects handled in 'Kurikulum Merdeka'?

Schools must offer at least three groups of elective subjects: MIPA (Mathematics and Natural Sciences), IPS (Social Sciences), and others like language or vocational subjects. Students must choose at least two different subject groups, with a maximum of five subjects.

What is the minimum number of elective subjects that must be provided by schools?

Schools are required to offer a minimum of three elective subject groups: MIPA, IPS, and one other category such as language or vocational education, depending on the resources available.

What is the significance of the subject 'Pancasila' in the curriculum?

Pancasila is a fundamental subject that strengthens the national ideology, and although it only has 2 hours per week, it plays an important role in shaping students' character and values.
