IDXChannel - Australia, through the Innovation for Indonesia's School Children Program (INOVASI), continues to support Indonesia in transforming the education ecosystem.
"The Australian government is proud to partner with the Indonesian government at all levels of education. We are committed to supporting the Indonesian government's efforts to ensure that no child is left behind," said Australian Deputy Ambassador to Indonesia Steve Scott during a book launch event in Jakarta on Tuesday (26/9/2023).
Between 2021 and 2023, INOVASI, together with the Ministry of Education, Culture, Research and Technology, conducted a series of studies related to the impact of COVID-19 on learning.
The study conducted one year after the pandemic found indications of learning loss. Two years after the pandemic, this study found indications of learning recovery.
The studies found that focusing on the needs of each student significantly contributes to learning recovery. The main methods include diagnostic assessment, differentiated learning and curriculum implementation that emphasises basic literacy and numeracy skills. These strategies align with the key principles of Emancipated Curriculum or Kurikulum Merdeka.
