FIELD STUDY DEVELOPMENT OF TEACHER PROFESSIONALISM in PRIMARY SCHOOL

Training is an important activity for teachers to always generate knowledge, not only students who are expected to develop knowledge but educators are also obliged to strengthen field competencies. The training that is often held is not comprehensive and is still relatively rare for certain schools. Therefore, a simple description of some teachers about the learning activities carried out and the acquisition of training within the teaching period is still relatively minimal. In addition, the 2013 curriculum recommends several learning models one of which is project based learning. The fact that some of the teachers interviewed turned out to be relatively rare. Project based learning is important because it can facilitate students to learn through the process. This research method uses descriptive qualitative approach. The research subjects were teachers from various different schools. The results show that teachers still rarely get training and the implementation of project based learning models is still rarely done. The conclusion is that there is a need for comprehensive training that is not limited by circles and real examples of the application of the project based learning model.
