Abstract

Social Studies (IPS) learning in elementary schools plays an important role not only in mastering knowledge, but also in fostering students' social attitudes and skills. However, practices that are still dominated by conventional methods often make students less engaged and result in low social literacy. This article aims to examine the application of the constructivism approach in IPS learning to develop the social literacy of elementary school students. The research was conducted through a literature study by reviewing relevant journals, proceedings, and books published between 2016 and 2024. The results of the study show that constructivism, especially through the Project-Based Learning (PjBL) model and contextual learning, can increase student engagement, motivation, and critical thinking skills. In addition, this approach strengthens social literacy by linking learning to real experiences, local culture, and the use of digital media. The role of teachers as facilitators is key in guiding students to construct knowledge through discussion, reflection, and collaboration. Thus, the constructivist approach has the potential to make social studies learning more meaningful while preparing students to become active, caring, and responsible citizens.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the implementation of social studies-based educational theories in fifth-grade social studies learning in Elementary School 060816. The theories used include constructivism, humanism, socioculturalism, behaviorism, cognitivistism, and cybernetics. This study employed a descriptive qualitative approach, with data collection techniques through interviews with fifth-grade teachers and observations of learning activities. The results show that teachers view social studies as more than just memorization, but a means of developing students' social attitudes, character, and social skills. The material is adapted to everyday life to make it more contextual, while the dominant methods used are group discussions, contextual learning, and problem-based learning. Students' differences in background are not a barrier but are instead utilized through heterogeneous group work that fosters tolerance and cooperation. Thus, the implementation of social studies-based educational theories has been proven to increase students' activeness, understanding, and social skills. This study confirms that social studies learning in elementary schools needs to be continuously developed through innovative, participatory, and real-life approaches.

Abstract

Social Studies in elementary schools plays an important role in shaping students' character, knowledge, and social skills from an early age. This article examines the philosophical, sociological, pedagogical, and psychological foundations underlying the development of social studies in elementary schools through a literature review. The research was conducted by reviewing 20 recent academic sources (2020–2025) relevant to elementary school social studies education. The results show that the philosophical foundation determines the scope and objectives through ontological, epistemological, and axiological aspects. The sociological foundation highlights the relationship between the social studies curriculum and social dynamics and community needs. The pedagogical foundation focuses on learning strategies that are appropriate to the developmental characteristics of students. The psychological foundation ensures that learning is in line with children's cognitive, affective, and socio-emotional development. These findings emphasize the importance of a comprehensive approach based on the four foundations of education to realize contextual and meaningful social studies learning that supports the achievement of national education goals.

Abstract

Globalisasi telah mempercepat penyebaran budaya populer melalui perkembangan teknologi digital, internet, dan media sosial yang semakin terintegrasi dalam kehidupan sehari-hari. Dalam konteks ini, generasi muda menjadi kelompok yang paling intens berinteraksi dengan arus budaya global, sehingga memengaruhi gaya hidup, pola pikir, hingga proses pembentukan identitas sosial dan kultural mereka. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh globalisasi budaya populer terhadap dinamika pembentukan identitas generasi muda dalam perspektif global. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode studi literatur melalui kajian terhadap jurnal ilmiah, buku, dan berbagai sumber akademik yang relevan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa budaya populer global memiliki peran signifikan dalam membentuk identitas generasi muda yang bersifat dinamis dan hibrid, yaitu perpaduan antara nilai-nilai budaya lokal dan budaya global. Di satu sisi, kondisi ini membuka ruang bagi generasi muda untuk membangun identitas yang lebih terbuka dan adaptif terhadap perubahan sosial. Namun di sisi lain, pengaruh budaya populer global juga berpotensi mendorong pergeseran nilai budaya lokal, homogenisasi budaya, dan melemahnya identitas kultural tradisional. Oleh karena itu, diperlukan penguatan literasi budaya, pendidikan kritis, dan kesadaran identitas lokal agar generasi muda mampu menyikapi arus globalisasi secara selektif dan reflektif. Temuan ini penting dalam memahami transformasi identitas generasi muda di era globalisasi digital yang semakin kompleks.
