Abstract

This study explores the effectiveness and challenges of implementing the Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) model in multicultural classrooms, particularly focusing on its impact on interpersonal skills development. The primary aim is to investigate how the CTL model enhances student engagement by connecting academic content to real-world contexts and to identify the barriers that impede its effective application. This research utilized a qualitative approach with a case study method to examine the application of the CTL (Contextual Teaching and Learning) model in building inclusive learning communities and fostering interpersonal skills in multicultural classrooms. The data collection techniques used in this study included interviews, observations, and document analysis. The findings indicate that while the CTL model significantly enhances student engagement and fosters the development of interpersonal skills, its implementation is fraught with challenges. Key obstacles include insufficient teacher training, misalignment with existing curriculum standards, limited resources, and institutional barriers such as rigid schedules and lack of administrative support. Despite these challenges, the research highlights the importance of sustained professional development and a supportive learning community to overcome these barriers. By addressing these issues, educators can better leverage the CTL model to create inclusive and effective learning environments. Overall, this study underscores the potential of the CTL model to transform teaching practices and improve student outcomes in multicultural settings. It calls for a concerted effort to provide the necessary support and resources for educators to implement the CTL model successfully, thereby enhancing educational experiences and fostering inclusive learning communities.

Abstract

This research aims to develop teaching materials based on local wisdom to improve the interpersonal skills of prospective elementary school teachers. The background of this research is based on the low interpersonal skills of prospective students of Elementary School Teachers at the Faculty of Teacher Training (FKIP) Cenderawasih University (Uncen) Papua. The strategy used to improve students' interpersonal skills is to integrate Khombouw into the teaching materials of the Basic Concepts of Science Elementary School. Khombouw is a local wisdom made of bark from red khombow trees (Ficus nodosa teijsm & Binn) and white khombow (Ficus variegata Blume), which grow in Sentani, Papua. This research is a research development (R&D) of the ADDIE (Analyze, Design, Development, Implementation) design model. The results of student self-assessment on the implementation of teaching materials based on Khombouw Local Wisdom Model Guided Inquiry on interpersonal skills were 69.5% in the "good" criterion, 28.2% in the "very good" criterion, and 5.1% in the "quite good" criterion. Lecturers' observations of interpersonal skills showed results that were not much different, namely 74.3% on the good criteria, 25.6% on the very good criteria, and 7.6% on the good criteria. The value of N < g> obtained was 0.27 and was included in the low criteria. A thorough evaluation and in-depth analysis of the factors that affect the low N-Gain value is required.
