Representasi Nilai-Nilai Pesantren dalam Buku Ajar Bahasa Arab MI Melalui Semiotika Roland Barthes
This study aims to reveal the representation of Islamic boarding school values ​​in the 2020 Islamic Elementary School (MI) Arabic language textbook published by the Indonesian Ministry of Religious Affairs, using Roland Barthes' semiotic approach. This textbook not only serves as a language learning medium, but also serves as an instrument for character building through narratives and illustrations rich in symbolic meaning. The method used is qualitative with visual and text analysis techniques, including interpretation of verbal and nonverbal signs (images, symbols, and illustrations) in the textbook. The results show that there are various representations of Islamic boarding school values ​​such as politeness, courtesy, discipline, and Islamic identity shown through symbols such as neat uniforms, peci (traditional cap), jilbab (headscarf), and interactions between students and teachers. These signs are analyzed through Barthes's three levels of meaning: denotative, connotative, and mythological, which ultimately lead to the construction of Islamic boarding school educational ideology in formal classrooms. These findings have important implications for the development of Arabic language textbooks that emphasize not only linguistic aspects but also serve as a medium for transmitting Islamic values ​​in a contextual and down-to-earth manner.
Pemikiran Al-Farabi dan Relevansinya dalam Pengembangan Kurikulum Pendidikan Dasar
Primary education that predominantly emphasizes cognitive achievement has led to a gradual degradation of character education. Consequently, the educational system risks producing graduates who are intellectually capable but morally fragile. This study aims to examine and propose a conceptual framework derived from the thoughts of the Muslim philosopher Al-Farabi as a philosophical foundation for revitalizing the primary education curriculum toward the formation of a holistic human being. This research employs a qualitative method with a library research approach, in which data from Al-Farabi’s primary works and relevant secondary literature are analyzed through descriptive-philosophical analysis. The findings reveal that Al-Farabi’s educational thought is holistic in nature, emphasizing the ultimate goal of attaining true happiness (sa‘adah) through the balance between intellectual cultivation (‘aql) and moral excellence (khuluq). His concept of integrating theoretical sciences (logic, metaphysics) and practical sciences (ethics, politics), along with the central role of the teacher as a moral exemplar, holds significant relevance for addressing the persistent dualism between cognition and character in modern education. The study concludes that Al-Farabi’s philosophy can be actualized through a curriculum that harmonizes philosophical, pedagogical, and curricular dimensions, thereby nurturing a generation that is not only intellectually superior but also morally upright and socially conscious.

Problems and Solutions for Teachers in Implementing the Independent Curriculum in the Society 5.0 Era
Education is the cornerstone for building the future of a nation. The Indonesian government has implemented the Merdeka Curriculum as part of its transformation toward a Society 5.0 society in an effort to advance the education system. Although this initiative was intended to improve the quality of education, many issues have arisen during its implementation, particularly regarding the role of teachers as facilitators in the classroom. This article discusses the challenges faced by teachers when implementing the Merdeka Curriculum in the Society 5.0 era at SD NU Darusaalam Semen. By understanding these challenges, we hope to find better ways to improve the efficiency and equity of curriculum implementation. This will be a crucial step toward cultivating outstanding future generations. This study employs a qualitative descriptive approach. Qualitative research methods, based on post-positivist philosophy, were used to study the subject in its natural state, or real state, without experimental settings or conditions, with the researcher as the primary tool. The research findings indicate that the implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum at SD NU Darussalam Semen Kediri currently relies on student textbooks and curriculum guidelines as the primary implementation guidelines for teachers. In its implementation, there are several obstacles encountered in the implementation of the independent curriculum, where these obstacles are the same as the causes of teachers' lack of readiness in facing the independent curriculum. These obstacles include insufficient socialization about the implementation of the independent curriculum, insufficient activity of the Teacher Working Group (KKG), insufficient time for teachers to learn the independent curriculum due to being busy with class/school administration, and insufficient learning media for teachers. Challenges for teachers in implementing the independent curriculum include: teachers must be more creative, innovative, and able to assess students during the process, not just based on final grades. Additionally, students' challenges in understanding the independent curriculum include weak numeracy and literacy skills, as well as a lack of adequate learning materials. Solutions to these issues require collaboration among various parties, particularly the government as the policy-maker, by providing training for teachers and fostering the implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum to align with its focus and objectives. Additionally, participating in internal and external workshops, expanding knowledge about teaching methods, sharing with fellow educators, and changing mindsets are essential. Educators must be more active, creative, and innovative in delivering content to students, enhancing students' literacy and numeracy skills, teachers must allocate time to learn more about creating modules for the Merdeka Curriculum, and schools must ensure adequate facilities and infrastructure are in place.
