THE IMPACT OF LIFE SKILL EDUCATION CURRICULUM IMPLEMENTATION IN ANTICIPATING ADOLESCENT PROBLEMS AT THE UNICEF PROJECT PILOT SCHOOL IN BONE REGENCY
Abstract
This article aims to determine the impact of implementing Life Skill Education curriculum in anticipating adolescent problems at Unicef Pilot Project School in Bone. Data collection techniques include interviews, observations, and documents. The data were analyzed by the stages of data display, data reduction, and data verification. The results showed that the impact of implementing LSE curriculum in anticipating adolescent problems in Bone was seen in independence of meeting personal needs in the form of students being able to be independent, gaining life skills, being able to overcome problems of Menstrual Hygiene Management (MKM), and being able to practice a variety of learning methods. Other independence in terms of meeting social needs are students being able to overcome bullying problems, managing environment, and overcoming child marriage. Therefore, it is expected to the government to issue a policy on the implementation of Life Skill Education curriculum to be applied in the educational environment because it has a positive influence on the prevention of child marriage.
