Abstract


Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis efektivitas komunitas belajar dalam meningkatkan kinerja profesional guru di SMP Negeri 2 Kota Tebing Tinggi, meliputi praktik profesional, keterlibatan guru, serta faktor pendukung dan penghambatnya. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan deskriptif kualitatif dengan desain studi kasus. Partisipan dipilih secara purposif dan berjumlah 12 orang, terdiri atas kepala sekolah, wakil kepala sekolah bidang kurikulum yang sekaligus menjadi ketua komunitas belajar, serta sepuluh guru. Data dikumpulkan pada November 2025 hingga April 2026 melalui wawancara mendalam, observasi partisipatif, dan studi dokumentasi. Analisis dilakukan melalui reduksi data, penyajian data, serta penarikan dan verifikasi kesimpulan. Kredibilitas temuan diperiksa melalui triangulasi sumber dan teknik. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa komunitas belajar dilaksanakan melalui diskusi pedagogik, berbagi praktik baik, refleksi kolektif, pengembangan bahan ajar secara kolaboratif, dan pelatihan internal. Kegiatan tersebut berkontribusi terhadap perbaikan perencanaan, pelaksanaan, penilaian, dan refleksi pembelajaran guru. Efektivitasnya didukung oleh kepemimpinan kepala sekolah yang partisipatif, komitmen guru, fasilitator internal, dan budaya kolaboratif. Namun, keterbatasan waktu dan anggaran, variasi partisipasi dan motivasi, serta pemanfaatan teknologi yang belum merata masih menjadi hambatan. Penelitian menyimpulkan bahwa komunitas belajar berpotensi menjadi strategi pengembangan profesional berkelanjutan apabila kegiatan sesuai dengan kebutuhan guru, melibatkan seluruh anggota secara aktif, dan ditindaklanjuti melalui evaluasi terstruktur.

Kata Kunci: Asesmen, Kinerja Profesional Guru, Kolaborasi Profesional, Komunitas Belajar, Pengembangan Profesional.
