Application of teaching module as an implementation of "Curriculum Merdeka" for fourth-grade students at Kuala Lumpur Indonesian School

The problems at the Kuala Lumpur Indonesian School (SIKL) can be seen in the implementation of the curriculum. The results of interviews with fourth-grade teachers and the head of SIKL stated that teachers do not yet have sufficient knowledge about Curriculum Merdeka learning, including the application of learning tools developed in a Curriculum Merdeka. The aims of this study were: (1) to describe the readiness of SIKL teachers in implementing the Curriculum Merdeka, (2) to describe the obstacles to the readiness of SIKL teachers in implementing the Curriculum Merdeka, and (3) to improve the ability of teachers to implement teaching modules as a Curriculum Merdeka implementation. Through direct observation, it is hoped that teachers will understand the application of teaching modules in a Curriculum Merdeka implementation. In addition, each teacher is able to apply and develop Curriculum Merdeka-based learning using teaching modules that can be implemented independently and continuously. This activity can be followed up by solving problems for teachers in understanding the application of teaching modules as an independent curriculum implementation that can be carried out independently and continuously.
