The Socialization of the Implementation of the Strengthening Project Pancasila Student Profile (P5) Independent Curriculum

Abstract

Education in Indonesia has undergone significant changes with the implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum. This curriculum aims to produce students who are not only intellectually intelligent but also possess strong character, noble morals, and are able to face global challenges. One important element of the Merdeka Curriculum is the Pancasila Student Profile Strengthening Project (P5). (Hamzah, M.R., 2022). The Pancasila Student Profile Strengthening Project (P5) is a project-based learning activity that is an integral part of the Merdeka Curriculum. P5 is designed to strengthen students' character based on the noble values of Pancasila, while simultaneously developing 21st-century competencies through contextual, interactive, and meaningful learning experiences. The Pancasila Student Profile Strengthening Project is one of the strategic efforts in implementing the Merdeka Curriculum, which aims to shape students' character and competencies according to Pancasila values. This community service aims to socialize the implementation of the project to students so that the understanding and implementation of the Pancasila Student Profile can be optimally implemented in schools. The methods used in this outreach included workshops, discussions, and direct mentoring during the learning process. The outreach results demonstrated an increased understanding of project concepts and implementation techniques among students, as well as an increased awareness of internalizing Pancasila values in their daily lives. Thus, this socialization is expected to support the success of the Independent Curriculum by strengthening the Pancasila Student Profile at SMKS Tanjung Priok 2 as the basic character of Indonesia's young generation.
