This study explores the perceptions of teachers at State Elementary School 13/1 Muara Bulian regarding the implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum, focusing on two main aspects: its appealing features and the administrative challenges encountered. The Merdeka Curriculum is designed to offer more flexible learning, emphasize differentiated instruction, and strengthen student character through contextual projects based on the Profile of Pancasila Students. However, in practice, teachers face considerable administrative burdens, such as preparing teaching modules, reporting formative assessments, and managing the Pancasila Student Profile Reinforcement Projects (P5). Using a descriptive qualitative approach, data were collected through interviews and observations involving directly engaged teachers. The findings show that while teachers appreciate the pedagogical freedom provided by the curriculum, they also express concerns over the increasing administrative demands, which are often unsupported by adequate training and resources. Therefore, practical measures are needed to offer professional assistance and streamline administrative tasks so that the Merdeka Curriculum can be implemented more effectively without overburdening educators.

Using a descriptive qualitative approach and desk research method, this study analyzes various scientific sources to evaluate the contribution of TMS to the development of computational thinking, which includes decomposition, pattern recognition, abstraction, and algorithms. The results of the study show that TMS is able to increase students' interest in learning, independence, and metacognitive awareness, although its implementation still faces challenges such as limited infrastructure and teacher training. This review recommends the need for further empirical studies and education policy support so that the integration of TMS can be more optimal in the context of the Independent Curriculum and the strengthening of the Pancasila Student Profile.

Character-based learning assessment plays a crucial role in shaping the Pancasila Student Profile at the elementary school (SD/MI) level. This study aims to identify effective strategies for collecting character assessment data to ensure that students develop in accordance with Pancasila values. The research methods include analyzing various assessment techniques such as observation, reflection journals, interviews, and scenario-based instruments. Additionally, this study explores the role of teachers, parents, and the school environment in supporting the implementation of character assessment. The findings indicate that effective character assessment must be holistic, involve multiple stakeholders, and be conducted continuously. The main challenges in data collection include time constraints, lack of teacher training in using assessment instruments, and limited use of technology in the assessment process. Therefore, it is recommended that schools adopt a more systematic approach by integrating digital technology, strengthening teachers' capacity through assessment training, and increasing parental involvement in the assessment process. With the right strategies, character assessment can become an effective tool in strengthening the Pancasila Student Profile and shaping a generation that is ethical, independent, and critical-thinking.

This study discusses the importance of integrating Guidance and Counseling (BK) in the Strengthening of Pancasila Student Profile (P5) Project at SMKN 1 Cilegon, as well as the factors that hinder the involvement of BK in this activity. P5 aims to internalize the values of Pancasila in students through a project-based approach, with a focus on character development and soft skills. However, the implementation of P5 at SMKN 1 Cilegon has not optimally involved BK. This research uses a descriptive qualitative approach to analyze the factors that cause BK's lack of participation in P5, its impact on students' social-emotional development, and a comparison with practices at other schools that have successfully integrated BK into P5. The results of the study show that administrative barriers, a lack of understanding of the role of BK, and limited communication between teachers and school management are the main obstacles. The impact of BK's non-involvement includes a reduction in the effectiveness of P5 in supporting character education and diminishing students' ability to face social-emotional challenges. This study recommends enhancing administrative support, providing training for teachers and counselors, and improving coordination among school stakeholders so that BK can optimally contribute to achieving the goals of P5. Effective integration of BK is expected to support the holistic development of students in line with the values of Pancasila.

Discipline is one of the parts included in the implementation of the Indonesian student profile. To create a golden and superior Indonesia, of course the nation's children as the next generation must be equipped as well as possible, including in terms of education. Student discipline has experienced a decline, both discipline at home, discipline at school, and especially discipline in the community. Many school children often go to school late, are often reckless on the street, often wander around at night, rarely pray, and have other bad behavior. This shows that student ethics and discipline have experienced a significant decline, which if left unchecked will definitely hinder the realization of a golden and superior Indonesia. That is why as an educator, a PAK teacher must be able to guide the nation's future young generation to live ethically and disciplined lives. With the ethics and professionalism possessed by PAK teachers, it is hoped that more and more students will live disciplined and civilized lives.
