Analisis Pelaksanaan Program Edupreneurship Dalam Mengembangkan Kreatifitas Dan Kemandirian Siswa

Abstract

Recently, many schools have developed various edupreneurship programs through activities such as the Pancasila Student Profile Strengthening Project (P5), market days, environmental product processing, the cultivation of selected plants, honesty canteens, and student product development projects in which the products are marketed within the school community. These programs serve as authentic learning experiences, providing students with hands-on opportunities to design, produce, promote, and evaluate products creatively while developing entrepreneurial skills and attitudes.

In this study, the researchers analyzed the implementation of an edupreneurship program integrated into the Visual Arts subject, specifically the learning unit on souvenir and handicraft production for fifth-grade elementary school students. The learning activity focused on creating macramé bracelets as souvenir products. Unlike conventional classroom assignments, students were encouraged not only to produce the handicrafts but also to experience the entrepreneurial process by packaging and selling their products through the school canteen and school cooperative.

The objective of this study was to analyze the implementation of the edupreneurship program in fostering students' creativity and independence. The findings revealed that the implementation of the edupreneurship program successfully enhanced the creativity and independence of fifth-grade students at SD Negeri Mojo 58 Sragen, particularly in the Visual Arts lesson on Macramé Bracelet Souvenir Production. What had previously been a formative assessment task was transformed into an edupreneurship-based learning activity. Through this program, students experienced the complete entrepreneurial process, including product creation, packaging, marketing, and selling their handcrafted products within the school environment. This learning experience not only strengthened students' artistic skills but also developed entrepreneurial values, creativity, responsibility, self-confidence, and independent learning.
