IMPLEMENTATION OF THE TEACHING CAMPUS PROGRAM AS AN EFFORT TO IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF EDUCATION AT MERAK THREE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

Abstract

Independent Learning Campus Program (MBKM) has various programs aimed at improving education in Indonesia, one of which is the Teaching Campus Program. The Teaching Campus Program is a forum for students to contribute to the learning process in all schools in Indonesia, especially schools that have poor quality in literacy and numeracy. Merak Three Elementary School, Tangerang Regency, Banten Province, is one of the target schools for the Teaching Campus Program. Students are responsible for assisting teachers in teaching in class, increasing the application of technology in schools, increasing literacy and numeracy, and understanding student characteristics and student learning styles to determine appropriate learning methods. Apart from that, students collaborate with field supervisors (DPL), teachers, school principals and students in carrying out work programs that have been designed. The method used is a qualitative descriptive method. The qualitative descriptive method is research that aims to describe data regarding the phenomena that occur. Data collection techniques are observation and interviews. The Teaching Campus Program at Merak Three Elementary School received a good response from the school and work plans were carried out well, such as making literacy trees, creating decorations for school walls and stairs, implementing Quizizz for exams, etc. It is hoped that the results of this program will increase students' ability to teach, improve the quality of school education, increase insight, and improve relationships with students, teachers and school principals.
