This study aims to describe the learning conditions of Indonesian History applied at Madrasah Aliyah Bustanul Muta'allimim Blitar which uses the Problem Based Learning learning model. Problem Based Learning model learning directs the ability of students to play an active role in solving a problem in the process of learning activities, but in reality in learning in class 10 of Madrasah Aliyah Bustanul Muta'allimin there are still some students who still have difficulty in solving problems and there are also some students who are less active when the learning process takes place. The formulation of the problems in this study are: 1) How is the implementation of the Problem Based Learning learning model in grade 10 Indonesian History subjects? 2) How can the implementation of Problem Based Learning improve the quality of 10th grade Indonesian History learning? 3) What are the implications of the implementation of Problem Based Learning on student learning outcomes? The method used in this research is descriptive qualitative, as for the data sources used, namely through primary data by digging directly to the research location located at MA Bustanul Muta'allimin Blitar, with data collection techniques using interviews, observation, and documentation and checking data validity through source triangulation. . The results of this study are 1) Implementation of Problem Based Learning model learning in Indonesian History subjects in class 10 A, 10 B and 10 C there are three stages that are applied in the learning process, namely the preparation stage, the core activity stage, and the final stage or evaluation. 2)  Analysis of Whether the Problem Based Learning Method can Improve the Quality of Indonesian History Learning in grade 10. There are differences in the responses of students from the three classes for class 10 A, the response of students is still difficult in solving problems in the learning process and difficulty in presenting material when in front of the class and less active in learning in class, this is different from class 10 B and 10 C, students are easier in solving a problem and can present material and be active in learning activities in class. So from this it can be said that learning in the classroom has improved, but there must be more improvements from the Problem Based Learning model when learning activities take place in class. 3) Classroom student learning outcomes For student learning outcomes are influenced by factors within students, namely about the motivation of these students in participating in learning. Students from the three classes can be said to be class 10 A which is rather low compared to the other classes, because there are only male students, this can happen because in the application of Problem Based Learning model learning, these students do not pay attention to the teacher's direction, and are less serious in learning activities, so they do not understand the material being discussed together, in contrast to classes 10 B and 10 C which tend to be more easily organized by the teacher and pay attention when learning activities take place and are active in the process of ongoing learning activities.  

Low achievement of Indonesian students in literacy and numeracy in PISA 2022 (359 and 366 points, far below OECD average of 476-493 points) demands evaluation of factors affecting learning quality.

Education is a very important factor for the development of a country. Education helps develop and improve skills and improves the quality of life and human dignity. To date, changes have been made to the curriculum. The curriculum is considered a plan developed to facilitate the teaching and learning process which is the responsibility of the school or educational institution and its teaching staff. (Yulia, 2023). Education in Indonesia has undergone curriculum changes 11 times. Starting from after independence until the latest in 2021-2022. This research aims to compare the implementation of the 2013 Curriculum and the Merdeka Curriculum at State Elementary School 064037 and understand the differences between the two in improving the quality of education. The method used is qualitative research with a content analysis and narrative analysis approach. In-depth content analysis is carried out on written and printed information from mass media to identify message characteristics objectively and systematically. Data was collected through interviews and reviewing controversial mass media news. The research results show that the Merdeka Curriculum, which has only been implemented in grades 1 and 4, gives students greater freedom in the use of knowledge, both inside and outside school, and encourages teacher and student creativity. In contrast, the 2013 Curriculum balances soft skills and hard skills in an integrative manner but still places educators as the main assessors of student abilities. Observations show that the Merdeka Curriculum encourages students to play an active role in learning, with educators acting as facilitators. This change in curriculum leads to a more student-centric approach, where students receive active feedback regarding their self-evaluation. These findings confirm that the Merdeka Curriculum promotes more independent and participatory learning compared to the 2013 Curriculum.
