Utilization of Artificial Intelligence in Strengthening the Pancasila Student Profile Project Integrated with STEM

Abstract

As the essence of education, the curriculum will persistently undergo changes and renewal to align with societal needs and the everexpanding global challenges. The integration of STEM and the Pancasila Student Profile Strengthening Project is essential in the context of education in Indonesia. By utilizing STEM, educators can contextually and relevantly teach Pancasila values, enabling students to comprehend scientific and technological concepts and incorporate these noble values into their daily lives. However, STEM learning in schools often faces challenges, such as limited resources, less innovative methods, and students' difficulties understanding abstract concepts. Technological advances have brought significant changes in various aspects of life in recent years. Artificial intelligence extends beyond computer science and informatics, permeating multiple disciplines. Educators can utilize the introduction of artificial intelligence (AI) in the education sector as a tool to enhance learning. AI is designed to process cognitive modeling of human thinking related to how a machine can record information, imitate, and modify automatically. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the integration of AI in P5 with STEM. We conducted this research at SMP Negeri 1 Purwosari using a qualitative approach. The research results demonstrate the use of AI in the integrated STEM P5 activities, beginning with activity planning, implementation, and evaluation. AI guides activity planning, integrates directly into technology, and functions as an automated assessment tool, delivering prompt and precise feedback. Therefore, overall, AI has outstanding potential to help improve the effectiveness of the learning process and introduce students to technology that will play an essential role in their future.
