<![CDATA[The limited integration of local cultural values into arts and culture learning media in elementary schools results in a learning process that remains largely theoretical and fails to provide a fully contextual learning experience. This situation restricts opportunities for students to explore their creativity and weakens their understanding of local cultural identity—a crucial element in character development. This study aims to develop learning media based on the ethnopedagogy of the Ronggeng dance to enhance creativity and strengthen the cultural identity of elementary school students. The study employs the Research and Development (R&D) method using the ADDIE model, comprising the stages of analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. The research was conducted at State Elementary School (SDN) 024 Sepaku, North Penajam Paser Regency, East Kalimantan Province. Data collection techniques included observation, interviews, questionnaires, and documentation. Research instruments were validated by subject matter and media experts, followed by descriptive quantitative and qualitative analysis. The results indicate that subject matter expert validation achieved a score of 87.5% (categorized as "highly feasible"), while media expert validation achieved 77.5% (categorized as "feasible"). Implementation of the media demonstrated increased student engagement in understanding the movement elements, values, and cultural significance of the Ronggeng dance. Measurements of student creativity and cultural identity reached 87.18% and 90.23%, respectively, both falling into the "excellent" category. The findings confirm that the Ronggeng dance ethnopedagogy media serves not only as a tool for arts education but also as a model for integrating local culture, capable of fostering creativity while simultaneously strengthening the cultural identity of elementary school students.]]>
