Abstract:
Genre-based approach is a language-learning approach that uses text as the main element. However, teacher do not yet fully know the application of genre pedagogy. This paper aims to describe the text-based approach in the independent curriculum using a qualitative approach and documentation study. The documentation used is the learning outcomes and objectives in the independent curriculum and the teacher’s book in the independent curriculum. Data analysis uses document analysis, which refers to Miles and Huberman’s qualitative data analysis, consisting of data collection, reduction, and interpretation. The results show 11 types of texts in the Merdeka Curriculum: narrative text, children’s poetry text, description text, procedure text, exposition text, informative text, recount text, literary text, explanation text, report text, and persuasion text. However, there are only three text types in all phases: narrative, description, and exposition. Thus, teachers need to understand each text type’s social purpose and structure in order to develop learning materials, especially discourse, in various text types.
Keywords: genre-based approach, text-based, Indonesian language, merdeka curriculum
