Abstract

Abstract: This study examines the educational activities and resources of Wereldmuseum Leiden within the context of formal history education, focusing on how learning is designed before, during, and after school visits. The central question is: what structured learning activities are implemented, and how do they support students’ historical understanding? Using a mixed-methods approach, qualitative data were collected through semi-structured interviews with five teachers and two museum educators, complemented by a descriptive survey of 20 participants involved in museum programs. The study analyzes activity types, timing, learning resources, and collaboration patterns between schools and museum staff. Findings indicate that hands-on workshops, artifact observation, and audiovisual materials are the most frequently used activities, mainly conducted during museum visits. Pre- and post-visit activities remain limited, suggesting weak integration with school curricula. Collaboration between teachers and museum educators is generally informal and inconsistent. This study highlights the need for more systematic partnerships between museums and schools to strengthen the pedagogical impact of museum-based history education. It also contributes to the field by adapting the instrument of Escribano-Miralles et al. (2021) to ethnographic museums with colonial collections, revealing specific challenges such as the underuse of pre/post-visit activities and digital resources in these settings. Abstrak: Penelitian ini mengkaji aktivitas dan sumber belajar di Wereldmuseum Leiden dalam konteks pendidikan sejarah formal, dengan fokus pada perancangan pembelajaran sebelum, selama, dan setelah kunjungan sekolah. Pertanyaan utama penelitian ini adalah: aktivitas pembelajaran terstruktur apa yang digunakan dan bagaimana aktivitas tersebut mendukung pemahaman sejarah siswa? Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan mixed-methods. Data kualitatif diperoleh melalui wawancara semi-terstruktur dengan lima guru dan dua edukator museum, serta didukung oleh survei deskriptif terhadap 20 partisipan yang terlibat dalam program edukasi museum. Analisis difokuskan pada jenis aktivitas, waktu pelaksanaan, sumber belajar, dan pola kolaborasi antara sekolah dan pihak museum. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa workshop berbasis praktik, observasi artefak, dan penggunaan media audiovisual merupakan aktivitas yang paling dominan, terutama selama kunjungan berlangsung. Aktivitas sebelum dan setelah kunjungan masih terbatas, yang menunjukkan lemahnya integrasi dengan kurikulum sekolah. Kolaborasi antara guru dan edukator museum juga cenderung bersifat informal dan belum konsisten. Penelitian ini menegaskan pentingnya kemitraan yang lebih sistematis antara museum dan sekolah untuk meningkatkan dampak pedagogis pembelajaran sejarah berbasis museum. Selain itu, studi ini berkontribusi dengan mengadaptasi instrumen Escribano-Miralles et al. (2021) ke konteks museum etnografi bercorak kolonial, serta mengungkap keterbatasan pemanfaatan aktivitas pra- dan pascakunjungan dan sumber digital.pembelajaran yang bermakna di tingkat lokal maupun global.

Abstract

This study examines the social construction and habituation of Indonesian national identity (ke-Indonesia-an) among early adolescents in two contrasting environments: Semarang, Indonesia, and Sabah, Malaysia. Using a comparative ethnographic design, data were collected through semi-structured interviews, participant observation, and documentary analysis involving 22 participants: 10 students (aged 13–15), 8 parents or guardians, and 4 teachers across three field sites: junior secondary schools in Semarang, Community Learning Centers (CLC) in Sabah, and non-CLC migrant households in Sabah. The analysis integrates Berger and Luckmann's (1966) social constructionism, Bourdieu's (1990) habitus and field theory, and Sayad's (1999) transnational habitus framework. Findings reveal that in Semarang, ke-Indonesia-an is reinforced through coherent institutional mechanisms, producing what Billig (1995) terms “banal nationalism.” In contrast, migrant children in Sabah navigate a fragmented identity process shaped by assimilation pressures, legal precarity, and social stigma, yet sustain “performative nationalism” through CLC education, familial oral histories, and digital media. A critical finding is that family habitus, classified as either aspirational or survival-oriented, serves as the decisive mediating mechanism in the internalisation of national values. The role of public history transmission, particularly through CLC history instruction by Guru Bina and parental oral narratives, emerges as a significant yet undertheorised mechanism in diaspora identity formation. The study contributes to transnational citizenship education, sociology of education, and public history scholarship by demonstrating that national identity formation cannot be reduced to formal schooling alone, and that policy must attend to the family as the primary site of historical memory transmission in transnational contexts.
