Abstract

Civic Education courses are courses that present material in the form of descriptions of facts or certain social problems. The dynamic nature of social science provides the opportunity to generate diverse views. Therefore, the ability to understand concepts is a must for students in understanding Civic Education in order to avoid misinterpretation. Based on these problems, the purpose of writing this article is to determine contextual learning in an effort to increase student understanding of the Citizenship Education Course. In theory that contextual learning is learning that can help students understand subject matter by connecting academic subjects with the context in their daily life, so that the material will be easier to understand. As a form of innovation in learning, contextual learning can increase the citizenship competence of students
