Main Article Content
Abstract
In 2022, the Indonesian education curriculum underwent changes to address the learning recovery post-COVID-19. Students' learning gaps resulted in lower literacy and numeracy skills. This research aims to assess the effectiveness of Indonesia's education curriculum changes in improving students' literacy and numeracy skills. The study employed literature review and documentary analysis methods. The research demonstrates that the literacy and numeracy skills of students improved following the changes in the Indonesian education curriculum, as evident in Indonesia's ranking in the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA). These findings highlight the positive impact of curriculum changes on enhancing the quality of education, particularly in students' literacy and numeracy skills at the middle school level. Thus, these curriculum changes hold significant potential in enhancing students' academic performance in Indonesia.
