Relevansi Pembelajaran Tematik Terpadu Terhadap Penguatan Kompetensi Holistik Peserta Didik Madrasah Ibtida’iyah
Abstract
This study aims to comprehensively examine the basic concepts, principles, characteristics, advantages and disadvantages of integrated thematic learning in Madrasah Ibtidaiyah (MI). The method used is library research by analyzing various relevant scientific sources. The results show that integrated thematic learning is an integrative approach using themes to link competencies from several subjects so students gain holistic and meaningful learning experiences. This approach is based on progressivism, constructivism, and humanism, and supported by cognitive development theory stating that MI-aged children are in the concrete operational stage. Key principles include student-centered learning, direct experience, cross-subject integration, flexibility, meaningfulness, and development of multiple intelligences. Characteristics include themes as unifiers, holistic, meaningful, active, integrative nature, and varied methods. Advantages include contextual and meaningful learning, increased motivation, critical thinking development, and reduced overlapping material. Weaknesses include high teacher competency demands, complex planning, difficulty in integrated assessment, and not all material being easily integrated.
