Bekasi, 5/4 (Antara) - The Education Council of Bekasi urged teachers to actively learn the new 2013 curriculum in order to understand and be ready to implement it in the next academic year.
Head of Bekasi Education Council Adhy Firdaus said there was no excuse for a teacher to not be ready to face a change.
Teachers, who understand less the curriculum, were required to collect information by any available source about the course of study.
"It is not solely students who are demanded to actively involve in the teaching and learning activities, but also the teachers should do so. The teachers' comprehensiveness will support them when implementing the 2013 curriculum to their pupils," Ady Firdaus said here on the popularization of the 2013 curriculum to 70 school principals of Bekasi, Thursday.
Pros and cons about the 2013 curriculum have been stirred and many people grasp less understanding about the new course of study, Firdaus said.
"However, after the popularization, the principals said they were ready to implement the curriculum," Firdaus said.
Firdaus said the 2013 curriculum was not so different from the 2006's. "The new one is based on the improved 2006 curriculum".
One of the challenge in popularizing the curriculum was the explanation of some removed courses of study.
The courses were not removed but integrated in other subjects, Firdaus said on the popularization attended by Director of Indonesian Teacher Association (PGRI) Agustitin Setyobudi and a representative of Education Quality Control Institution Didang Setiawan.
The Government planned to implement the new curriculum in June 2013
Meanwhile, Minister of Education and Culture Muhammad Nuh said on Tuesday (April 2) that the government continued to adjust textbooks to the new curriculum that would be implemented in July this year.
"We are adjusting the textbooks to the new curriculum and after it is completed, we will train teachers during holiday season in June," Muhammad Nuh said at the presidential office.
President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono on Tuesday led a limited cabinet meeting to discuss the 2013 Education Curriculum which will be implemented in the upcoming school year.
The meeting that took place in the presidential office was among other things attended by Vice President Boediono, Education and Culture Minister M Nuh and Religious Affairs Minister and Suryadharma Ali.
The president expressed hope that the 2013 curriculum would be prepared well, so as to avoid any problem in its implementation.
In preparing the implementation of such curriculum, Yudhoyono also asked the education minister to pay attention to various inputs from community and education figures.
