different concept

Penerapan kurikulum 2013 yang baru dirasakan oleh siswa dengan konsep
pembelajaran baru dan siswa mulai beradaptasi dengan konsep pembelajaran
tersebut, secara frontal diganti dengan konsep yang berbeda jika living kurikulum
diterapkan. Walaupun konsep pembelajarannya tidak sepenuhnya baru namun
sudah dipastikan akan memiliki perbedaan. Jika menganalisa hal tersebut,
kemungkinan siswa akan menganggap pola pembelajaran yang diterapkan oleh
gurunya berbeda dengan pola pembelajaran sebelumnya.

Dalam kurikulum 2013, pelajaran bahasa inggris di SD akan masuk

dikegiatan ekstrakulikuler yang pelaksanaannya dilakukan diluar pelajaran. Tapi
mungkin untuk sekolah – sekolah tertentu masih memasukkan pelajaran bahasa
inggris seperti biasa dalam kegiatan belajar mengajar dengan maksud bahwa
memang pelajarn bahasa inggris di SD itu sangat penting dan sudah terbukti
