Summary
SSP dikenalkan pertama kali oleh Shulman sebagai PCK (Pedagogical Content Knowledge). Secara umum PCK menitikberatkan pada kemampuan dan keahlian guru untuk menciptakan pembelajaran yang efektif dan bermakna sesuai dengan karakteristik materi yang akan diajarkan. Menurut Permendiknas No 8 Tahun 2009 Pasal 1 Ayat 6 Subject Specific Pedagogy atau SSP adalah pengemasan materi bidang studi menjadi perangkat pembelajaran yang komprehensif, mencakup standar kompetensi, materi, strategi, metoda, media, dan evaluasi. Sukini juga menjelaskan beberapa karakterisik pembelajaran tematik yaitu 1) berpusat pada siswa (student centered), 2) memberikan pengalaman langsung, 3) pemisahan mata pelajaran tidak begitu jelas, 4) menyajikan konsep dari berbagai mata pelajaran dalam suatu proses pembelajaran, 5) bersifat luwes/fleksibel, 6) hasil pembelajaran sesuai dengan minat dan kebutuhan siswa. Agar pembelajaran tematik lebih efektif, maka harus dirancang dengan baik secara mendidik melalui SSP yang menggunakan strategi-strategi, metode, media, dan prinsipprinsip tertentu yang disesuaikan dengan karakteristik siswa serta content atau isi materi yang akan diajarkan. Teknik analisis data dilakukan dengan langkah-langkah sebagai berikut: 1) Mentabulasi semua data yang diperoleh dari para validator, 2) Melakukan konversi skor total actual menjadi data kuantitatif skala lima menurut Sukardjo (2005: 55)
