Abstract

Project-based learning is supposed to lead student-centred learning and cultivate a competitive and critical thinking mindset following the Emancipated Curriculum. Unfortunately, due to teachers' incomplete understanding of the notion of project-based learning, teacher-centred learning remains noticeable. As a result, it is critical to investigate how teachers conceptualize and carry out project-based learning in the classroom. This study employed a case study with documents (lesson plans), classroom observations, and interviews as the primary means of gathering data to examine teachers' comprehension and application of these techniques in the classroom to support students' development of critical thinking abilities through project-based learning. Under the Emancipated curriculum, two experienced teachers who had completed the professional teacher program (PPG) at a junior high school in Central Java were investigated in terms of how they comprehend project-based learning. Findings indicated that, teachers were aware of the fundamental concepts behind project-based learning and were proficient in all kinds of activities relevant to Stroller's (2006) theory of activities in project-based learning. This study also demonstrates that the teachers indicated a solid understanding of and implement the HOTS concepts of understand (C2), apply (C3), analyze (C4), and evaluate (C5). It is advised that teachers utilize project-based learning more commonly in the classroom because it can raise students' HOTS by helping them comprehend in each task. Keywords: Higher-Order Thinking Skills (HOTS), Project-based Learning (PjBL), Teachers’ Understanding. Dalam Kurikulum Merdeka, project-based Learning diharapkan mampu menjadi tombak pembelajaran yang berpusat pada peserta didik dan menumbuhkan sikap berfikir kritis, dan kompetetif. Namun sayangnya, tidak dapat dipungkiri bahwa pembelajaran yang berpusat pada guru masih dominan karena guru belum sepenuhnya memahami konsep dari project-based learning. Oleh karena itu, penting untuk mengeksplorasi pemahaman guru tentang project-based learning secara konsep maupun penerapannya didalam kelas. Dengan menggunakan study kasus, penelitian ini menggunakan dokumen analisis dalam bentuk lesson plan, observasi kelas dan wawancara sebagai metode pengumpulan data utama untuk melihat secara mendalam pemahaman guru dan pemanfaatnya dalam kelas sehingga project-based learning ini dalam menumbuhkan ketrampilan berpikir kritis anak. Dua orang guru berpengalaman dan telah bersertifikat program profesi guru (PPG) di salah satu Sekolah Menengah pertama di Jawa Tengah terlibat dalam menggali pemahaman mereka tentang Project-based Learning sesuai dengan yang tercantum dalam kurikulum merdeka. Temuan penelitian menunjukkan bahwa guru memahami konsep dasar dan segala jenis aktivitas mengenai project-based learning dibawah teori Stroller (2006). Penelitian ini juga menggarisbawahi bagaimana pemahaman guru tentang project-based learning di terapkan dalam kelas sehingga mampu menumbuhkan sikap Higher-order Thinking Skills (HOTS) anak. Dengan pemahaman yang baik, project-based learning mampu mengantarkan HOTS anak mulai dari dimensi understand (C2), Apply (C3), Analyze (C4), dan Evaluate (C5). Namun, pada beberapa tahapan project-based Learning, masih adanya ketidak konsistennya guru antara baik dalam teori maupun praktek sehingga berpengaruh terhadap capaian HOTS anak. Kata kunci ; Higher-order Thinking Skills (HOTS), Pemahaman guru, Project-based Learning.
