This study aims to improve students’ learning outcomes and learning motivation in the subject of Pancasila Education through the implementation of the Culturally Responsive Teaching (CRT) approach. CRT is a teaching approach that integrates students’ cultural backgrounds into the learning material, making the learning process more relevant and inclusive. This research is a type of Classroom Action Research (CAR) conducted in two cycles. Each cycle consists of four stages: planning, implementation, observation, and reflection. The subjects of the research were 38 students from class XI of SMA Negeri 1 Palembang in the 2025/2026 academic year. Data were collected through observation and tests. The results of the study showed an improvement in students' learning outcomes: in Cycle 1, the average score was 79.05 with a classical completeness of 65%, while in Cycle 2, the average score increased to 96.36 with a classical completeness of 94%. Regarding learning motivation, in Cycle 1 the average was 73%, categorized as high, whereas in Cycle 2 it increased to 95%, categorized as very high. These results indicate that the implementation of the Culturally Responsive Teaching (CRT) approach can enhance students.
