Abstract

This study analyzes Kalasan Temple as a religious and political entity that articulated and mobilized Mahayana Buddhist ideology to bolster dynastic legitimacy during the Śailendra dynasty in eighth-century Java. The study utilizes a historical-archaeological approach, systematically applying heuristics, critical source evaluation, interpretation, and historiography to both primary data, specifically the Kalasan Inscription (778 CE) and the temple’s architectural and ornamental characteristics, as well as secondary scholarship in history, archaeology, and Buddhist studies. This research reinterprets epigraphic and architectural data by contextualizing Kalasan within the broader framework of contemporary Buddhist monuments in Central Java, such as Sari, Plaosan, and the Borobudur complex, to evaluate common ideological patterns and institutional strategies, rather than regarding existing literature as a descriptive authority. The analysis reveals that Kalasan’s establishment as a Bhavanam, bolstered by royal patronage and simā land grants, signifies a purposeful incorporation of Mahayana devotional practices into the political framework of Ancient Mataram. The study demonstrates, through comparative architectural and contextual analysis, that Mahayana Buddhism functioned as both elite religiosity and a legitimizing framework connecting rulers, monastic communities, and society. This article emphasizes methodological rigor and intersite comparison, offering critical insights into the interplay between religious ideology and political authority, demonstrating how sacred architecture actively influenced the development of early Javanese civilization.

Abstract

This study investigates the utilization of primary source-based instruction by history educators to improve historical literacy among senior high school students within the framework of the Independent Curriculum. The research utilized a qualitative case study approach at a public high school in South Sumatra, incorporating classroom observations, comprehensive interviews, and document analysis, with data evaluated in accordance with the Miles and Huberman interactive model. The findings indicate that educators organized learning via the phases of planning, implementation, and evaluation, guided by four elements of historical thinking: sourcing, context. However, the implementation of these elements varied across classroom practices. Consistently across classroom practices. Teachers always instructed students to determine the origins of sources and their intended purposes. However, students often struggled with this task due to their limited reading levels, insufficient time, and limited access to physical primary sources. Archival documents, historical photographs, obsolete newspapers, and local artefacts predominantly served as mediated instructional resources influenced by teacher scaffolding, rather than as direct enablers of historical literacy. The research empirically demonstrates that the advancement of historical literacy through primary sources is a negotiated and context-sensitive process influenced by teacher mediation, student readiness, and institutional factors. By demonstrating how the Independent Curriculum alters and constrains historical thinking frameworks, the study theoretically advances the discourse on source-based pedagogy.

Abstract

The development of educational media in the form of educational games based on crossword puzzles was carried out using the Research and Development method with the Alessi & Trollip model. The media was validated by experts in subject matter, language, and media, showing very high validity results, namely 100% from media experts and 92.85% from subject matter experts. The practicality of the media was measured through a beta test involving teachers and students, with an average response of 97.78%, which is classified as very practical. This educational game was applied to material on the inscriptions left behind by the Sriwijaya Kingdom and was proven to increase student engagement in learning and foster an interest in studying history. This medium makes the learning process more meaningful and provides a contextual approach to understanding past events. The development of educational games based on crossword puzzles adds innovation to historical learning media and helps students understand past events in a more in-depth and contextual manner. The implications of this study show that educational games can be an effective alternative medium in history learning. Further development and widespread application of this medium is recommended to increase motivation and in-depth understanding of history.

Abstract

Abstrak:Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pemanfaatan Museum Nasional sebagai sumber belajar dalam meningkatkan kualitas pemahaman sejarah bagi mahasiswa Program Studi Pendidikan Sejarah Universitas Sriwijaya. Museum sebagai lembaga pelestarian warisan budaya dan sejarah memiliki potensi besar dalam mendukung proses pembelajaran. Dalam pendidikan sejarah, mahasiswa tidak cukup hanya menguasai teori, melainkan juga dituntut memiliki kemampuan berpikir kritis, historis, dan reflektif. Oleh karena itu, keberadaan museum sebagai sumber belajar menjadi alternatif yang kontekstual, aplikatif, dan bermakna. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan pendekatan deskriptif-analisis. Data dikumpulkan melalui observasi langsung di Museum Nasional Jakarta, serta dokumentasi koleksi-koleksi yang relevan dengan materi kuliah. Teknik analisis data mengacu pada model Miles dan Huberman, yang mencakup proses reduksi data, penyajian data, dan penarikan kesimpulan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pemanfaatan Museum Nasional sebagai sumber belajar memberikan dampak positif bagi penguatan pemahaman materi sejarah mahasiswa. Koleksi museum, seperti artefak prasejarah, peninggalan Hindu-Buddha, nisan kuno, manuskrip Islam, senjata perjuangan, arsip pergerakan nasional, hingga dokumen kemerdekaan, secara nyata membantu mahasiswa mengaitkan teori yang dipelajari di kelas dengan bukti otentik yang dapat diamati langsung. Selain memperkuat aspek kognitif, pengalaman belajar berbasis museum juga menumbuhkan apresiasi dan kesadaran historis mahasiswa terhadap pentingnya pelestarian warisan budaya bangsa. Interaksi langsung dengan koleksi di museum mendorong mahasiswa untuk tidak hanya menghafal fakta sejarah, tetapi juga mengembangkan pemikiran kritis, membangun hubungan sebab-akibat antar peristiwa, dan memahami dinamika sosial, politik, ekonomi, dan budaya dalam konteks sejarah Indonesia. Dengan demikian, pemanfaatan Museum Nasional sebagai sumber belajar tidak hanya memperkaya proses pembelajaran, tetapi juga menjadi sarana efektif dalam membentuk karakter mahasiswa yang berwawasan historis dan cinta terhadap budaya bangsa. Abstract:This research aims to analyze the utilization of the National Museum as a learning resource in improving the quality of historical understanding for students of the History Education Study Program of Sriwijaya University. Museums as cultural and historical heritage preservation institutions have great potential in supporting the learning process. In history education, it is not enough for students to master theory, but they are also required to have the ability to think critically, historically, and reflectively. Therefore, the existence of museums as a learning resource is a contextual, applicable, and meaningful alternative. This research uses a qualitative method with a descriptive-analytical approach. Data were collected through direct observation at the National Museum Jakarta, as well as documentation of collections relevant to the course material. The data analysis technique refers to the Miles and Huberman model, which includes the process of data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results showed that the utilization of the National Museum as a learning resource had a positive impact on strengthening students' understanding of historical material. Museum collections, such as prehistoric artifacts, Hindu-Buddhist relics, ancient gravestones, Islamic manuscripts, weapons of struggle, national movement archives, and independence documents, clearly help students link the theories learned in class with authentic evidence that can be observed directly. In addition to strengthening cognitive aspects, museum-based learning experiences also foster students' appreciation and historical awareness of the importance of preserving the nation's cultural heritage. Direct interaction with collections in the museum encourages students to not only memorize historical facts, but also develop critical thinking, establish cause-and-effect relationships between events, and understand social, political, economic, and cultural dynamics in the context of Indonesian history. Thus, the utilization of the National Museum as a learning resource not only enriches the learning process, but also becomes an effective means in shaping the character of students with historical insight and love for the nation's culture.
