Curriculum Development In The Digital Era To Improve The Quality Of Learning

Abstract

 This article aims to examine in depth the role of teachers in the curriculum development process in the digital era, focusing on their roles as both curriculum developers and implementers. This study employs a qualitative method with a content analysis approach, drawing data from scientific articles and relevant journals related to the teacher’s role in curriculum development. Data collection was conducted through documentation techniques, including reading, note-taking, and categorizing important information from the sources. The findings reveal that teachers play a central role as adaptive curriculum developers by adjusting content, teaching methods, and assessments to suit students' needs and the dynamics of digital advancement. Teachers are also responsible for integrating values such as digital literacy and global citizenship. However, their role as curriculum implementers is often constrained by top-down educational policies that leave little room for innovation. Therefore, strengthening the teacher’s role in both aspects is essential to meet the demands of education in today’s digital era.
