Social Studies (IPS) learning at the elementary school level plays a strategic role in shaping students’ understanding of social, cultural, and economic life, as well as national values. This study aims to analyze the differences between the 2013 Curriculum and the Merdeka Curriculum in IPS learning, including planning, implementation, the use of methods and media, and the assessment of learning outcomes. The research employed a descriptive qualitative approach with a case study, collecting data from curriculum documents, lesson plans (RPP), syllabi, classroom observations, interviews with teachers and school principals, and student questionnaires. The results indicate that the 2013 Curriculum provides a clear learning structure, detailed lesson plans, and systematic material organization that facilitates teachers, but it is less flexible and less contextualized for students. In contrast, the Merdeka Curriculum emphasizes flexibility, relevance of content to the local context, innovative methods such as project-based learning and blended learning, as well as holistic assessment focusing on critical thinking skills, social literacy, and student character. The implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum can enhance students’ learning interest, active participation, understanding of social concepts, and social awareness; however, its effectiveness depends on teacher readiness, school support, facilities, and consistency in assessment. These findings suggest that selecting an appropriate IPS curriculum should consider a balance between structure and flexibility, content relevance, teacher competence, and supporting facilities.

This study examines the role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in piano education through a qualitative review of six recent academic sources. AI technology has brought about significant transformations in music learning methods, particularly for the piano instrument. Various AI applications such as automated performance feedback systems, musical accompaniment generators, technical error detection devices, and adaptive learning platforms have enabled new approaches to teaching and learning. AI provides instant feedback, tailored exercises to individual abilities, and creates more interactive and flexible learning environments. These innovations are considered to support the development of students' technical skills more effectively, while increasing learning motivation through personalization and ease of access. Furthermore, this study examines the information systems that support these AI applications, including human-computer interaction, audio signal processing, and the use of machine learning models to recognize playing patterns and technical errors. While AI offers significant benefits, concerns arise regarding its limitations in understanding and responding to the emotional aspects of music. AI is not yet capable of fully supporting the development of subjective and complex musical expression. Over-reliance on this technology is also feared to undermine students' critical thinking, artistic sensitivity, and creativity. Therefore, this study emphasizes the importance of a balanced integration between AI technology and human pedagogical roles, with the teacher remaining the primary facilitator in fostering expression, interpretation, and artistic values in piano learning. The study recommends further research on emotionally responsive AI, blended learning models, and long-term evaluation of AI's impact on students' artistic and musical development.
