IDENTITAS SOSIAL DAN KURIKULUM INKLUSIF

Sebuah Investigasi di Sekolah Dasar Negeri 1, 2 dan 6 di Kota Palu Tahun 2023

Abstract

This research aims to describe the implementation of an inclusive curriculum in shaping social identity. This is crucial in communities with diverse ethnicities, religions, traditions, cultures, and more, enhancing references for educational strategies, particularly in elementary schools in Palu. The study employs a qualitative method with an ethnographic approach, utilizing both primary and secondary data sources. Data collection techniques include document analysis, observation, and in-depth interviews. After data gathering, document analysis focuses on curriculum documents and others. Data analysis reveals that implementing an inclusive curriculum significantly strengthens students' social identities through increased social interactions and appreciation of local cultural diversity, exemplified by the concept of "Nosarara Nosabatutu," emphasizing cooperation and mutual support. Practical implementation is reflected in local culture integrated into the curriculum, fostering a sense of ownership, national identity, and tolerance towards differences. Effective communication among students is pivotal in initiating healthy social interactions. However, the study is limited geographically and in population scope; future research could involve a broader range of schools with greater diversity.
