National Curriculum 2013.

The Curriculum 2013 aims to improve Indonesian education by reorganizing required subjects and the central importance to the new curriculum is a change in teaching style. It pushes teachers to move away from the traditional teacher-centered classroom and towards a student-centered classroom. In real terms, this means that teachers are to spend less time lecturing students and more time teaching through inquiry. Teachers should facilitate the learning process by asking guided questions that help students discover content for themselves. Students are expected to become active and engaged learners. This approach hopes to encourage curiosity in students in order to build their critical-thinking and communication skills.
