ABSTRACT:
Achieving professionally competent graduates requires a curriculum that unleashes the potential of students. The curriculum becomes the direction of forming intellectually qualified individuals by paying attention to social, spiritual, and moral aspects; therefore, identifying the hidden curriculum is necessary in addition to the ideal curriculum. Both aspects, dimensions, and elements indicate that applying the hidden curriculum is very important in the educational environment. Therefore, this study aims to identify hidden curriculum factors, both positive/negative, exemplary values and attitudes, and paradigms related to professional educators based on the perceptions of Master’s level students. The method used in this research is descriptive quantitative, with data collected through questionnaires and interviews. The research results obtained hidden factors that influence the following: 1) the personality and attitude of lecturers, 2) the lecturer’s performance, and 3) the relationship level. On negative factors, interaction constraints were found: 1) Lecturer/student busyness, 2) Slow lecturer response to student messages, 3) Uncommunicative attitude of lecturers to confirm lecture time, 4) Poor feedback, 5) Reluctance and fear of being wrong by students. At the same time, values and exemplary are categorized in the intellectual, social, and spiritual dimensions. For the professional educator paradigm, several aspects are identified.
