Hidayah, Noor. 2015. Persepsi Guru Tentang Kurikulum 2013 di SMK PGRI

1 Mejobo Kudus. Skripsi. Pendidikan Bahasa Inggris Fakultas

Keguruan dan Ilmu Pendidikan Universitas Muria Kudus. Pembimbing:

(i) Dr. Slamet Utomo, M.Pd (ii) Nuraeningsih, S.Pd, M.Pd

Kata kunci: Perubahan kurikulum, kurikulum 2013, persepsi guru

Pergantian kurikulum merupakan salah satu upaya untuk meningkatkan

kualitas pendidikan. Oleh karena itu, pada 15 Juli 2013, Muhammad Nuh

(Menteri Pendidikan dan Kebudayaan Indonesia) mengeluarkan kurikulum baru

yaitu kurikulum 2013. Kurikulum 2013 adalah pengembangan dari kurikulum

2004 atau kurikulum berbasis kompetensi (KBK) yang mencakup kompetensi

sikap, keterampilan, dan pengetahuan secara tematik yang penilaiannya

berdasarkan pada proses dan hasil. Sukses tidaknya pelaksanaan kurikulum 2013

dipengaruhi beberapa faktor, salah satunya adalah persepsi guru terhadap

kurikulum 2013. Persepsi guru terhadap kurikulum 2013 adalah informasi,

gambaran, nilai, harapan, teori, dan asumsi tentang kurikulum 2013 yang para

guru mengerti, percayai, dan mereka bawa / terapkan kedalam kelas. Sehingga

positif atau negatifnya persepsi guru terhadap kurikulum 2013 akan

mempengaruhi bagaimana mereka mengimplementasikan kurikulum 2013

tersebut di kelas.

Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui persepsi guru terhadap

kurikulum 2013 di SMK PGRI 1 Mejobo Kudus.

Desain penelitian ini adalah penelitian deskriptif kualitatif. Penelitian ini

dilaksanakan di SMK PGRI 1 Mejobo Kudus. Instrumen dalam penelitian ini

adalah angket yang diberikan penulis kepada 30 guru di SMK PGRI 1 Mejobo

Kudus.

Dari angket tersebut, penulis menemukan bahwa persepsi guru tentang

RPP kurikulum 2013 di SMK PGRI 1 Mejobo Kudus adalah positif (73%),

persepsi guru tentang materi kurikulum 2013 di SMK PGRI 1 Mejobo Kudus

adalah positif (87%), persepsi guru tentang proses belajar mengajar kurikulum

2013 di SMK PGRI 1 Mejobo Kudus adalah positif (70%), persepsi guru tentang

penilaian kurikulum 2013 di SMK PGRI 1 Mejobo Kudus adalah positif (53%),

dan secara keseluruhan persepsi guru terhadap kurikulum 2013 di SMK PGRI 1

Mejobo Kudus adalah positif (80%).

Perubahan kurikulum merupakan sesuatu yang tidak dapat kita hindari di

dunia pendidikan. Perubahan kurikulum diperlukan untuk mencapai kualitas

pendidikan yang lebih baik. Oleh karena itu, para guru disarankan agar lebih bijak

dalam menghadapi perubahan kurikulum tersebut. Persepsi positif dari para guru

akan membantu mereka agar lebih siap menghadapi perubahan kurikulum dan

membuat mereka lebih optimis untuk belajar dan mencari informasi lebih banyak

tentang kurikulum yang baru. Sehingga mereka dapat mengimplementasikan

kurikulum yang baru kedalam kelas dengan benar.
