Page 2 - Virtual Drama Scripts

SYNOPSIS

In the Independent Curriculum, it is essential for the learning
content and teaching materials to be relevant and contextual

(Ingtias, 2022). Additionally, Rizki and Fahkrunisa (2022) mention
that the purpose of this guideline is to foster an advanced Indonesia

that is sovereign, independent, and characterized by individuals
who embody the values of Pancasila, namely critical thinking,
creative, independent, possess faith, fear God Almighty, and
demonstrate noble character.

One of the most crucial and contextual issues that needs to be

taught to the students is about climate change issues (Tenridinanti,
2021). According to the United Nations Educational (2022),

Climate Change Education (CCE) fosters an appreciation of the
intricate and interconnected nature of the various challenges posed

by climate change. Education plays a vital role in the global

response to climate change by enhancing people’s understanding
of its impact, promoting “climate literacy” among youth, influencing
attitudes and behaviors, and facilitating adaptation to climate

change-related trends.

Depending on students' needs, the virtual drama scripts on climate

change and Profil Pelajar Pancasila dimensions is needed by the
students. A lot of information obtained is related to the needs,

wants, lack of study, and even students’ preferences in learning. In
addition, the teacher of English in the interviewed session said that

the virtual drama scripts could be useful for students to perform
virtual drama in P5 (Projek Penguatan Profil Pelajar Pancasila).

Therefore, developing climate change-based virtual drama scripts

with Profil Pelajar Pancasila dimensions is necessarily needed by
students to improve the knowledge regarding climate change as

well as increasing the awareness of Pancasila’s value in daily lives.
