hanya memiliki kompetensi pedagogik dan profesional, tetapi juga mampu mengintegrasikan nilai-nilai karakter, empati, dan kasih sayang dalam proses pembelajaran. Kurikulum Berbasis Cinta (KBC) hadir sebagai pendekatan yang menekankan dimensi afektif dan humanistik dalam pendidikan, yang diperkenalkan dalam berbagai sosialisasi kebijakan pendidikan keagamaan di Indonesia. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan jenis kajian pustaka (library research). Data diperoleh dari buku, jurnal ilmiah, dan dokumen kebijakan yang relevan, kemudian dianalisis menggunakan teknik analisis isi (content analysis). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa transformasi kompetensi guru PAI mencakup penguatan kompetensi pedagogik berbasis nilai, kompetensi sosial yang empatik, serta kompetensi kepribadian yang berlandaskan akhlak. Selain itu, guru dituntut untuk mampu mengintegrasikan pendekatan Kurikulum Merdeka dengan nilai-nilai KBC guna menciptakan pembelajaran yang bermakna dan berorientasi pada pembentukan karakter peserta didik. Dengan demikian, penerapan Kurikulum Berbasis Cinta menjadi langkah strategis dalam memperkuat peran guru PAI sebagai pendidik yang tidak hanya mentransfer ilmu, tetapi juga membentuk karakter dan kepribadian peserta didik secara holistik.
This study aims to analyze the transformation of Islamic Religious Education (PAI) teachers’ competencies in the era of the Merdeka Curriculum toward the Love-Based Curriculum (Kurikulum Berbasis Cinta/KBC). The shift in the educational paradigm requires teachers not only to possess pedagogical and professional competencies, but also to be capable of integrating character values, empathy, and compassion into the learning process. The Love-Based Curriculum (KBC) emerges as an approach that emphasizes the affective and humanistic dimensions of education, which has been introduced through various socialization programs of religious education policies in Indonesia. This study employs a qualitative approach using a library research method. The data were obtained from books, scientific journals, and relevant policy documents, and were analyzed using content analysis techniques. The findings reveal that the transformation of PAI teachers’ competencies includes the strengthening of value-based pedagogical competence, empathetic social competence, and personality competence grounded in moral values (akhlak). In addition, teachers are required to integrate the Merdeka Curriculum approach with the values of KBC in order to create meaningful learning experiences oriented toward the holistic character development of students. Therefore, the implementation of the Love-Based Curriculum becomes a strategic step in strengthening the role of PAI teachers as educators who not only transfer knowledge, but also shape the character and personality of students holistically.
Abstract:This study examines how thematic organization contributes to the construction of state power and social positioning in international news discourse. Drawing on Halliday’s Systemic Functional Linguistics, with a specific…
c focus on Theme–Rheme structure, the study analyses a BBC news report published in November 2023 on the Russian Supreme Court’s decision to designate the so-called “international LGBT movement” as an extremist organization. Using a qualitative textual approach, the text is segmented into clauses and analyzed to identify patterns of thematic choice and progression. The findings reveal a consistent foregrounding of institutional actors, such as state authorities and legal bodies, in Theme position when reporting legal actions and policy decisions, while members of the LGBT community and civil society figures are predominantly thematized in clauses expressing reactions, personal experiences, and anticipated consequences. This asymmetric thematic distribution constructs a discourse in which state authority is positioned as the primary agent of action, whereas affected social groups are framed as respondents to institutional power. The study demonstrates that ideological meanings in news discourse may be realized implicitly through grammatical organization rather than explicit evaluative language, and it highlights the value of Theme–Rheme analysis for examining power relations in contemporary international news reporting.
Abstract:This classroom action research aims to improve students’ understanding of norms and rules in everyday life through the use of picture-based learning media in Grade II UPT SD Negeri 74 Bontorita II during the 2025/2026 academic…
academic year. The study was conducted in two cycles consisting of planning, action, observation, and reflection. The participants were 22 students who were involved in learning activities using instructional pictures and number-pocket media to strengthen conceptual understanding. Data were collected through observation sheets, learning outcomes tests, and teacher reflections. The findings indicate a significant improvement in students’ learning outcomes and participation. Initial observations showed low understanding of norms and rules, reflected in students’ low discipline, responsibility, and adherence to class regulations. After the implementation of picture media in Cycle I, students’ average score increased from the pre-cycle score of 46.2% to 71.1%. In Cycle II, after using more varied and engaging visual media, students’ average score further improved to 79,36%, surpassing the minimum completeness criteria. The use of picture media was effective because it facilitated concrete understanding, increased motivation, and encouraged active engagement. The study concludes that picture-based media enhances students’ cognitive, affective, and behavioral competencies in learning. It is recommended that teachers integrate more innovative visual media to create meaningful, interactive, and enjoyable learning experiences in civics education and other subjects
