Abstract

The complex dynamics of Indonesia's pluralistic society necessitate innovative approaches to reconstruct Civic Education paradigms, specifically through the integration of multicultural values. This study investigates the implementation of Research-Based Learning (RBL)—operationalised through a systematic cycle of observation, data collection, analysis, conclusion, and application—as an innovative pedagogical model at Sanggar Anak Alam (SALAM). Employing a qualitative case study design, the research engaged 35 participants, comprising facilitators, students, and parents. Data were systematically gathered via in-depth interviews, participant observations, and document analysis, followed by thematic analysis and triangulation facilitated by ATLAS.ti software. The analysis yielded two primary findings: firstly, the embedding of multicultural values significantly enhances appreciation for diversity and cultivates an inclusive character amongst students; secondly, RBL effectively fosters civic competencies by actively engaging students in resolving contextualised social issues. These findings demonstrate that this model not only fortifies the internalisation of multicultural values but concurrently refines students' critical cognitive abilities, empathy, and collaborative skills. Ultimately, this framework exhibits substantial potential for adaptation within formal educational settings, thereby enriching the Civic Education curriculum to become more culturally responsive. This innovation posits a novel paradigm wherein inclusive pedagogy ensures equitable educational access, the RBL cycle refines instructional methodologies, and insights derived from non-formal education serve as a viable catalyst for fortifying institutional Civic Education.

Abstract

The rapid expansion of digital technologies has increased the urgency of developing responsible digital citizenship, yet existing studies have predominantly explained digital citizenship from the perspectives of digital literacy and technological competence, with limited attention to the contribution of civic competence. Addressing this gap, this study examined the extent to which civic knowledge and civic skills function as enabling conditions for digital citizenship among pre-service elementary school teachers. A quantitative cross-sectional design was employed involving 56 participants, and the data were analysed using multiple linear regression. The findings indicate that both civic knowledge and civic skills are significantly associated with digital citizenship, with civic skills demonstrating a stronger contribution. However, the model explained only 38.7% of the variance in digital citizenship, suggesting that responsible digital citizenship is shaped not only by civic competence but also by broader contextual factors, including digital literacy, digital self-efficacy, institutional support, technology access, and learning environments. Conceptually, this study advances the literature by positioning civic knowledge and civic skills as enabling conditions rather than deterministic predictors of digital citizenship. Practically, the findings highlight the importance of integrating civic competence with authentic digital learning experiences, including project-based learning, ethical decision-making, critical evaluation of online information, and collaborative digital activities within teacher education programmes. These findings provide a conceptual and practical foundation for strengthening civic education in preparing future elementary school teachers for responsible participation in increasingly complex digital societies.
