Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the role of constructivism and contextualism theory as a philosophical foundation in the application of Project Based Learning and to identify challenges and opportunities in its implementation in the current education system. The method used in this study is a literature review that examines various current literature related to PBL, constructivism theory, and contextualism, as well as its application in 21st century education. The results show that Project Based Learning based on both theories can increase student engagement, deepen their understanding through hands-on experience, and connect learning with real-life contexts. However, challenges such as limited resources, time, and resistance to change are still obstacles to its implementation. However, the opportunity to optimize PBL, especially by utilizing technology, is huge in creating learning that is more flexible and relevant to the times. Conclusion: Project Based Learning based on constructivism and contextualism is effective in increasing student engagement and understanding, even though it is constrained by resources and resistance, but technology opens up optimization opportunities.

Abstract

This article discusses cultural resistance carried out by Indonesian society in facing colonial domination, especially by the Dutch, which attempted to erode local identity through various assimilation policies. With the background of colonial history, this article reviews forms of cultural resistance that are manifested in efforts to maintain language, tradition, art, and nationalist movements. Local education and traditional arts, such as wayang and gamelan, are used as effective symbolic resistance tools in raising nationalist awareness. The national movement also shows the collaboration between culture and politics as a means of resistance against colonialism. Indonesian society developed resilience strategies through cultural adaptation and negotiation, where local values ​​are maintained despite foreign influences. This article emphasizes that cultural resistance not only maintains identity but also forms the basis of national consciousness that plays an important role in the struggle for independence.
