Analysis Of Historical Content In Textbooks Hindu Religious Education And Characteristics Class VIII Junior High School Curriculum 2013

Abstract

The purpose of writing this article is to describe and interpret historical content, especially in the Hindu Religion and Moral Education textbook Class VIII SMP Curriculum 2013. The method used in this research is descriptive qualitative with a critical-comparative analysis model. The type of research used is library research. The approach model used is a heuristic approach related to history. Data collection was carried out based on an analysis of literature studies or document studies by utilizing various sources to then be analyzed and interpreted as research results. In the heuristic approach, researchers used three stages, namely collecting data sources, content analysis and interpretation. The results in this study indicate that narrative descriptions about history that are so short are like a resume in the 2013 Curriculum 2013 Hindu Religion and Moral Education textbook. After being compared with other sources, the researcher also found an incompatibility in the sources of information in the textbooks. So that the interpretation does not give rise to ambiguous meanings, the researcher also conducts content analysis by connecting data and facts and providing an interpretation of the main issues that are the object of study. In carrying out the interpretation, researchers are still guided by secondary sources and tertiary sources. Secondary sources used in this study include books, scientific research journals and other references from the population.
