Faktor Penghambat Pelaksanaan Kurikulum Merdeka Pada Mata Pelajaran PPKn Di SMK Negeri 3 Kayuagung

Abstract

This study was conducted to identify the inhibiting factors in the implementation of the Merdeka
curriculum in the Civics Education (PPKn) subject at SMK Negeri 3 Kayuagung. The data collection methods
used in this research were observation, interviews, and documentation. The data analysis techniques
employed included data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing/verification. Based on the
description of the research findings, it was found that the inhibiting factors in the implementation of the
Merdeka curriculum in the Civics Education subject were primarily internal factors. From the discussion of
the research data, it can be concluded that internal factors play a significant role in the successful
implementation of the Merdeka curriculum. Furthermore, the research findings suggest that the lack of
motivation provided by teachers during the learning process, students' low curiosity and interest in
knowledge related to the Merdeka curriculum, as well as teachers' limited knowledge and skills in teaching,
are the main barriers to the effective implementation of the Merdeka curriculum at SMK Negeri 3
Kayuagung.
