Problematika Pembelajaran IPS di Indonesia

Abstract

A The curriculum is a set of plans and arrangements regarding the objectives, content, learning materials and methods used as guidelines for implementing learning activities to achieve certain goals. The development of an increasingly advanced era requires changes in the curriculum in order to achieve maximum learning goals. This development also has an impact on several subjects, one of which is social studies learning. These changes lead to the emergence of various problems in the learning process, especially for studying Social Sciences (IPS) in Elementary Schools (SD) and Junior High Schools (SMP). Based on this, this study aims to find out the problems contained in social studies learning in Indonesia, especially for learning Social Sciences (IPS) in elementary schools (SD) and junior high schools (SMP). This study uses a qualitative approach using descriptive methods, so that the results obtained can be described and can be easily understood. Based on the research results, four problems can be identified, namely disruptive behavior of students, lack of learning facilities and infrastructure, teachers who do not understand material outside their field of knowledge and learning methods that are less varied.
