Pengelolaan Kelas Progresif: Peran Guru dalam Membentuk Lingkungan Pembelajaran yang Aktif dan Berkualitas

Abstract

Progressive classroom management is an approach that positions students as active, independent, and responsible learners in the learning process. Progressive classrooms not only emphasize order but also foster a safe, collaborative learning atmosphere rich in meaningful interactions. This article aims to examine how progressive classrooms are managed and explain the strategic role of teachers in creating an active and quality learning environment. The method used is a qualitative literature study, examining various scientific sources related to classroom management, active learning, and progressive pedagogical practices. The results of the study indicate that progressive classroom management is effective when teachers act as learning environment designers, facilitators, guides, and reflective evaluators. Implementing progressive classrooms requires mutually agreed-upon classroom rules, differentiated learning, teaching strategies, and a classroom culture that values ​​student voice. The article's conclusion emphasizes that the quality of learning is largely determined by the teacher's capacity to manage the classroom humanistically and adaptively, with a focus on active engagement and student learning comfort.
