Problem-Based Learning (PBL) has become a significant approach in the realm of education aimed at enhancing students' abilities to solve real-world problems. This paper delves into the integration of PBL within curriculum planning as an endeavor to create a more meaningful and pertinent learning environment for students. PBL amalgamates theoretical concepts with practical applications in problem-solving, enabling students to hone critical thinking, creativity, and collaborative skills. This research scrutinizes strategies for implementing PBL within curriculum planning, encompassing the identification of curriculum-relevant issues, structuring structured learning steps, and evaluating learning outcomes. The success of PBL within the curriculum context hinges upon schools' and teachers' capacities to design adaptable and flexible curricula. Teachers assume a pivotal role as learning facilitators, guiding students in exploring problems, fostering collaboration, and nurturing profound comprehension. Furthermore, this study underscores the advantages of integrating PBL into the curriculum, including heightened student motivation, fortified problem-solving skills, and preparing students to confront real-world challenges.

Conformity, or the tendency to conform attitudes and behaviors to group norms, can affect students' learning motivation and academic achievement. This article discusses the impact of conformity on students' learning motivation and academic achievement from two sides, namely positive impact and negative impact. On the positive side, conformity within certain limits can help students adapt to the school environment and encourage them to learn to be accepted in the group. But on the other hand, excessive pressure to conform to peers can reduce students' internal motivation to learn and achieve. Students tend to only study as needed to be accepted in the group and their academic performance decreases. Therefore, a balance is needed, where students maintain their uniqueness while adapting positively to the group. Thus, conformity can benefit students' learning motivation and achievement.
