Abstract

This study investigates the difficulties of Pancasila and Citizenship Education teachers in developing teaching materials for the study of the Indonesian constitution and their solutions in the independent curriculum. The development of teaching materials is one of the pedagogical abilities that must be possessed by teachers. The development of teaching materials serves to make it easier for teachers to carry out or process learning in the classroom, so that learning takes place optimally. This study applies a descriptive qualitative method. Data collection uses interview techniques, observation, and document analysis. The results showed that Civic Education teachers have not yet developed constitutional teaching materials. They experience problems due to internal and external factors. Internal constraints are caused by their not maximizing their abilities and low motivation. External constraints are caused by the lack of carrying capacity of the leadership and its supporting facilities. Teachers of Pancasila and civic education require the ability to master and design constitutional teaching materials, select and collect them optimally so that students can achieve standards of competence and basic competencies or learning outcomes. The professionalism of Pancasila and Civic Education teachers in developing teaching materials will increase if they do for experience; utilizing learning resources from the internet (mass media, social media, the Constitutional Court website, etc.); attend educational seminars, workshops, training, and independent learning. Regarding the results, this study reveals implicitly that Pancasila and Civic Education teachers who are professional in developing teaching materials for the Indonesian constitution will increase students' legal awareness.
