Changes and innovations in the educational curriculum are very important elements in answering the challenges of the times that continue to develop. The curriculum innovation process carried out in various countries, including Indonesia, reflects efforts to accommodate new needs in the world of education. This article examines changes and innovations in the educational curriculum with a focus on key findings obtained from research in Indonesia and Indonesia and other countries such as; Malaysia, Finland, Singapore, Canada, Australia, China, and the United States through the library research method, this study analyzed various previous studies, including journals, books, and related articles. The purpose of this study is to examine changes and innovations in the educational curriculum with a focus on the factors driving these changes and the challenges faced in their implementation. The results of the study show that curriculum changes and innovations are triggered by several key factors: 1) technological advances that affect learning methods, 2) job market demands and economic changes that demand new skills, and 3) socio-cultural changes that encourage the adjustment of teaching materials. Although various countries have innovated curricula according to local needs, significant challenges remain, namely: 1) teachers' readiness to implement the new curriculum, 2) the availability of resources that support the learning process, 3) resistance to existing changes, and 4) the lack of a comprehensive evaluation of the effectiveness of previous curricula. These findings highlight the importance of collaborative strategies to address these challenges to support the success of curriculum innovation.

This research is motivated by the demands of improving the quality of education in private educational institutions often faced with budget constraints. This study aims to analyze the impact of budget constraints on implementing Total Quality Management (TQM) and to identify effective and efficient TQM implementation strategies in these conditions. This study uses a qualitative approach with a case study type at SMP Queen Ibnu Sina, Banyuwangi. Data was collected through in-depth interviews with the principal, vice principal, teachers, and administrative staff, observation and documentation studies. The study's results indicate that budget constraints significantly impact initial TQM investments, such as staff training and system development, as well as on ongoing TQM maintenance, which led to the selection of more affordable internal evaluations. Nevertheless, the institution demonstrated resilience by implementing several adaptive strategies. Prioritizing areas for improvement is the primary strategy. Creative use of internal resources has also proven effective. External collaboration with MGMP, professional organizations, and the government opens up access to resources and expertise that are difficult to reach independently. Strong leadership, staff commitment, effective communication, budget transparency, ongoing evaluation, and a culture of continuous improvement are also necessary. The study concluded that TQM implementation can still be effective in private institutions with limited budgets through adaptive strategies such as prioritization, utilization of internal resources, and external collaboration, supported by strong leadership and an organizational culture that supports improvement.

The urgency of this research arises from the limited availability of teaching resources that effectively integrate entrepreneurship theory with practical experience, resulting in students’ difficulties in fully developing an entrepreneurial mindset. The study adopted a Research and Development (R&D) approach using the 4D model: Define, Design, Develop, and Disseminate. However, due to time and funding constraints, the research was limited to the Develop stage. Validation results from two experts in entrepreneurship and curriculum development indicated a very high level of feasibility, with an average score of 94.1% across aspects of content, structure, readability, and the application of PjBL principles. The module is considered valid, practical, and ready for classroom use. Its strengths lie in integrating entrepreneurial theory and practice, emphasizing active and collaborative learning, and embedding Islamic values in project activities. This study is expected to contribute significantly to the development of innovative entrepreneurship pedagogy in Islamic higher education, while also strengthening students’ competencies in critical thinking, communication, collaboration, innovation, and decision-making. Further research is recommended to examine the module’s effectiveness across broader classroom contexts and diverse learning settings.
