Abstract

The present study aimed to describe and analyze qualitatively the implementation of integrated thematic learning in the 2013 curriculum at State Elementary School 55/I and State Elementary School 111/I, Muara Bulian sub-district, Batanghari Regency. This study used descriptive qualitative type of study. Thus, triangulation techniques such as observation, interviews, and document analysis were used to collect the data. The first finding showed that, in Public Elementary School 55/I, there are four ways to implement the Learning Implementation Plan (RPP); 1) the teacher uses the lesson plan by downloading it entirely from the National Education Blog, 2) the teacher downloads the lesson plan and revises the parts that are deemed inappropriate, 3) the teacher designs or designs the lesson plan used himself, and 4) the teacher teaches without using the lesson plan, in which the 2013 Thematic Integrated Curriculum book only guides the teacher. Learning Integrated thematics have been maximally implemented in this elementary school but not yet optimal. It is caused by several obstacles, namely; there are still teachers who teach not guided by the Lesson Plan (RPP), lack of competency in understanding theory and skill among the teachers, and a lack of maximum collaboration between parents, teachers, and the school stakeholders. The implementation of the evaluation at Public Elementary School 55/I Sridadi already refers to authentic assessment. Although it is still constrained by time management, the teacher can respond adequately. In general, the facilities and infrastructure at this elementary school are pretty complete. However, some teachers still have not made full use of them. The second finding showed that in Public Elementary School 111/I Muarabulian, the teachers had made Learning Plans (RPP) with their designs, even though only a few themes. However, the Lesson Plan (RPP) is not all used as a guide in teaching. Meanwhile, it is used as complementary to other activities, such as; to be displayed for supervision and evaluation visits by supervisors, for teacher performance competitions, and to display in workshops at group meetings of Teacher Work (KKG). Lesson plans used for teaching guidelines are fully downloaded, some are revised download results, and some are self-designed. Integrated Thematic Learning in the 2013 Curriculum in this Elementary School has been implemented in its entirety since 2019 in line with the implementation of the 2013 curriculum. All teachers in this school have implemented integrated thematic learning to the fullest, but it is not entirely optimal. It is because of several factors, such as teachers’ inadequate professional readiness, student parents who do not fully support student learning activities, and an inconducive school environment. The implementation of evaluation in these elementary schools used authentic assessment. But the finding showed it had not been carried out optimally. This happens because of the lack of time to assess all aspects of the authentic assessment. Thus, the facilities and infrastructure at Public Elementary School 111/I Muarabulian are inadequate to implement integrated thematic learning optimally. The most needed facility is a library room, but at that school, the library is not properly to be used.
