Research Trend of Independent Curriculum in Elementary School on Scopus Database

Afridha Sesrita, Arita Marini, Linda Zakiah

Abstract


This study examines trends in independent curriculum research in social studies in elementary schools (ICES) using bibliometric and wordcloud analysis. Scopus data from 2013 to 2023 includes 56 English-language documents, including articles, books, and others. The findings show a significant increase in ICES-related publications, particularly from 2020 to 2023, with the most important contributions coming from the United States. In ICES research, terms such as curriculum, students, learning, and education often appear. Issues such as educational measurement and collaborative learning, critical thinking, educational computing, and parent-child relationships could be potential future research that could be explored with ICES. This can also be a research topic for Indonesian researchers because an independent curriculum called the Merdeka Curriculum began to be developed in 2020 and will become the Indonesian National Curriculum in 2026. The availability of these publications is still tiny in the Scopus database, which indicates the potential for future research directions related to ICES that Indonesian educators and researchers can explore.
