Planning, Implementation and Evaluation of Islamic Education Through a Love Based Curriculum in Madrasah

Abstrak

This study aims to analyze in depth the planning, implementation, and evaluation of the Love Based Curriculum (KBC) in madrasas, a strategic effort by the Ministry of Religious Affairs of the Republic of Indonesia (Kemenag RI) to instill holistic, humanistic, and religious character values. The KBC is based on the Five Love Principles, which integrate spirituality, humanity, and the environment into all educational activities. The research method used was a qualitative study with a descriptive-analytical approach to curriculum policies and case studies in several pilot madrasas. The results indicate that the KBC requires a shift in teachers' mindsets from a cognitive-administrative focus to a character-spiritual focus. Successful implementation is largely determined by synergy across four areas: intracurricular, co-curricular, extracurricular, and madrasah culture. Evaluation is conducted holistically through observation and reflection, going beyond traditional academic assessment. Keywords: Contemporary Review and Innovations in the Independent Curriculum
