Abstract

This research aims to identify the application of MERDEKA learning flow in Dance subjects at schools and its effects on students’ creativity improvement in dancing. The MERDEKA learning flow is the acronym of Mulai dari diri sendiri (starts from oneself), Elaborasi konsep (concept elaboration), Ruang kolaborasi (collaboration space), Demonstrasi kontekstual (contextual demonstration), Elaborasi pemahaman (understanding elaboration), Koneksi antar materi (inter-materials connection) and Aksi nyata (concrete action). In 2021, the Government via Education Minister released Kurikulum Sekolah Penggerak (lit. Mover School Curriculum), but there are no significant changes upon the implementation since there are still many teachers using the old way to teach, and today, there appears to be an approach called MERDEKA learning flow that is assumed to match this type of curriculum. MERDEKA learning flow requires students to be more active in understanding the lesson without being dependent on the teacher and makes them explore much deeper in comprehension and practice. In this research, a quantitative approach and experimental method are used. The primary data collection tools are tests or questionnaires, observation, interviews, and documentation. The research is executed in SMPN 2 Cibinong to grade-7 using the new curriculum, that is, Sekolah Penggerak. The data analysis is using inferential analysis. The study showed that by using this approach, the students’ creativity were elevated. Moreover, the learning result achieved using MERDEKA learning flow was also shown in the improvement of their creativity especially in moving and creating traditional-based dance movements.
