KURIKULUM DALAM BINGKAI DESENTRALISASI: KAJIAN KEBIJAKAN PENDIDIKAN INDONESIA MASA REFORMASI

Dwi Mahdiyah, Ba’in Ba’in, R. Soeharso — Sun, 15 Jun 2025 09:42:44 +0800

This article examines the transformation of curriculum policy in Indonesia in the context of educational decentralization during the reform era. The 1998 reformation was an important turning point that drove the shift in the education system from centralization to decentralization, through strengthening the role of local governments in managing education. The curriculum as the main instrument of education has undergone significant changes along with changes in policies and the direction of national development. This study uses historical research methods with heuristic stages, source criticism, interpretation and historiography. The results of the study show that the implementation of the decentralization policy provides space for the development of a curriculum that is contextual and relevant to regional needs. However, its implementation cannot be separated from challenges such as limited human resources, inequality in access to education between regions, and dependence on central funding and policies. Therefore, synergy between the central and regional governments, as well as active participation of the community and educators, are the keys to the success of educational decentralization. The curriculum in the framework of decentralization is not only a technical tool for teaching, but also a reflection of the democratization process and efforts to improve the quality of national education in a sustainable manner.

Ratna Widyawati, Heru Purnomo — Mon, 23 Jun 2025 11:19:45 +0800

The purpose of this study was to determine the obstacles experienced by fourth grade students of Lemahrubuh Elementary School in writing affixed words in the Indonesian Language subject. Writing skills are included in fairly complex language skills, because students must not only understand the meaning of basic words, but also be able to use affixes correctly according to grammatical rules. The approach used in this study is descriptive qualitative, with data collection methods through observation, interviews, and questionnaires. The research findings show that students still have difficulty in identifying and using prefixes, infixes, and suffixes correctly. This difficulty is caused by limited vocabulary, lack of variety in teaching methods, minimal use of interactive learning media, and lack of parental involvement in assisting children's learning process. In addition, online learning also affects students' less than optimal understanding. However, students' understanding tends to increase when teachers use interesting learning media and deliver material through real examples. Therefore, a more comprehensive teaching strategy is needed by optimizing creative learning media, increasing parental involvement, and implementing periodic evaluations so that students' ability to write affixed words can develop optimally.

This research uses a descriptive qualitative method, where this study aims to analyze and describe the effectiveness of using picture word cards as a medium to enhance early reading skills in first-grade students at Tegalrejo III Public Elementary School. Education is a fundamental right that is crucial for the progress of human civilization, and early reading skills are a critical foundation for children's academic and social success. However, the facts show that teaching early reading in schools often still uses monotonous techniques, which results in a lack of interest and unsatisfactory learning outcomes for children. Common problems faced by children include difficulties in linking letters, syllables, simple sentences, distinguishing letters, and understanding the content of reading. One of the main factors is the lack of diversity in teaching strategies and learning media used. Therefore, this research investigates the creative use of illustrated flashcards to build a dynamic and engaging learning environment. Children's motivation, letter recognition, word spelling, and early reading skills have all been shown to improve significantly with illustrated flashcards that combine words with images. This material is also considered aesthetically pleasing and easy to understand. However, the use of this media is found to have limitations, as each card typically contains only one word. To make reading activities more challenging, it is suggested to create cards that can accommodate multiple words.
