Implentation of Learning, Economics, State Senior High School 15 Palembang, Independent CurriculumAbstract
Implementation of Economics learning in class X of SMA Negeri 15 Palembang evaluates the effectiveness of the methods used in improving student learning outcomes. This activity was carried out in the context of the Introduction to School Fields (PLP) which provides real experience for students in carrying out learning at school. The method used in this study is descriptive with an observation approach, teaching assistance, and independent practice. The results of the implementation show that the implementation of Economics learning with lecture methods, group discussions, and the use of technology-based learning media can improve students' understanding of the material being taught. The obstacles faced include time constraints, technical constraints, and the presence of several students who are less active in the learning process. Overall, Economics learning in class X of SMA Negeri 15 Palembang runs effectively and in accordance with the independent curriculum that is applied. It is hoped that these findings can be a reference for the development of more innovative learning in the future.
