Ministry
of education and culture of Indonesia already published new curriculum for
Indonesia’s education. It called curriculum 2013. Curriculum 2013 use to change
the last curriculum KTSP. By variety of reason, curriculum 2013 will be hoped
to be able increase Indonesia’s education in this globalization era. From this
article I would like to analyze is it really useful to apply curriculum 2013
for education of Indonesia.
Let me start about the changed of
KTSP to curriculum 2013. According to the fact, KTSP have a lot of material
which is have difficulties beyond for developmental age of the child. This
condition had big impact for the students. Students will be more focus to
cognitive assessment than a valuable character. That’s why Indonesia’s
education have a bad grade about student attitude. Some mass media report that
students in Indonesia get involved in bad behavior. Brawl, free sex, drug
addiction and dishonest in the exam are some phenomena that occurred in
Indonesia’s student. And I think, these are impact from our last education
curriculum. In curriculum 2013, education hoped to be more focus on building
character. This is evidenced by reduction some subjects in elementary school.
In the first until third years students in elementary school will be oriented
on nature, social and culture. So, I believe it will be very useful to make
students have a strong and good character for their next future.
Curriculum 2013 also apply thematic
integrative system in all subjects. I think it’s a good system. Because some
subjects as Indonesian language is supposed to be use in all subjects. It will
increase student’s knowledge about Indonesian language. Because actually
Indonesian language is an applied science. So, by using Indonesian language in
all subject will make student understand what exactly the essential from this
subject.
In middle school, information and
communication technology will not be a subject anymore but it used to be a tool
for all subject. So, it hoped can increase student’s soft skill. I think it’s a
brilliant idea because I believe it can make students have a good preparation
to continue their study on the next level.
I think curriculum 2013 is a good
way to increase the output of our education. But the problem now, do we have a
good readiness to use this curriculum? Especially for the teachers. Do they
ready? Because as good as a curriculum
will not useful if the teachers were not ready. So I hope government must
re-think about to increase teacher’s readiness and also about the facilities on
the school.
