The Implementation of National Curriculum and Islamic Boarding School Curriculum Integration (A Study at KMI Pondok Pesantren Jajar Islamic Center Surakarta)

Abstract

The relationship between religion and science is an interesting debate to discuss. The thing that often becomes the point of the problem is the integration between the two. The question is when religion becomes a source of spirit for the development of science and how the two sciences can meet. There is an essential component in the educational process, namely the curriculum. Because the curriculum applied in Indonesia is more oriented to secular Western concepts, it is necessary to integrate religious education with general education. More than that, the question often arises is whether the integration is a form of dissolution or mixing. By a phenomenological approach with descriptive analysis techniques, this research concludes that the integration of the curriculum at the KMI level at Pondok Pesantren Jajar Islamic Center Surakarta can be categorized in the form of dissolution, however in applying this form is not perfect yet; therefore, a review is needed, especially in the implementation of integrative Curriculum Lesson Plan.
