Keywords:
environmental education; ecological awareness; Merdeka Belajar CurriculumAbstract
Environmental education in the Independent Learning Curriculum plays a crucial role in shaping students' ecological awareness and supporting ecosystem sustainability. This article examines the opportunities for integrating environmental education into the Merdeka Belajar Curriculum with the aim of enhancing students' understanding of the importance of preserving nature. Based on a literature review, the article presents various innovative approaches to environmental learning, such as project-based learning, problem-based learning, and the use of technology, which can enrich students' learning experiences. Challenges in implementing environmental education, including limited resources, teacher training, and limited curriculum support, are also discussed. Case studies from schools that have successfully implemented environmental education show a positive impact on students' ecological awareness. This article also highlights the importance of collaboration with local communities, governments, and related institutions to enrich students' learning experiences, as well as the role of local wisdom in strengthening the relevance of environmental education within the local cultural and environmental context. As a recommendation, further efforts are needed in the development of a more integrated curriculum, more intensive teacher training, and the utilization of technology to support more effective and impactful environmental learning.
