Abstract

This study aims to develop and test the effectiveness of digital comics based on the Marsali method as an interactive learning medium in introducing Mandailing Natal folklore to students. The Research and Development (R&D) method was used in this study, involving five main stages: analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. The results of the study showed that the use of digital comics developed with the Canva application, as well as involving students in Marsali practices, successfully increased their interest and understanding of folklore. Of the 30 students who participated, 85% reported an increase in interest in folklore after studying the comics, and 90% felt that the comics helped them understand the material. In addition, the evaluation also showed an increase in active participation in class discussions. The use of digital comics based on Marsali has proven to be an effective medium in preserving local culture and enriching student learning through a visual and interactive approach that is relevant to the younger generation. This study concludes that digital comics based on local culture can be an effective tool in education, especially in maintaining the sustainability of folklore and cultural heritage in the digital era.

Abstract

Character education based on local wisdom is a crucial strategy for shaping the identity and morality of the younger generation in a culturally relevant manner. This study aims to develop and evaluate a character education model grounded in Mandailing culture through an innovative approach conceptualised in the MERDEKA framework (Marsali, Mangupa, Dalihan na Tolu, Cerita Rakyat, Marsialap Ari, Gordang Sambilan, and Maronang-onang). The research employed a descriptive quantitative approach with multistage sampling, involving 100 students from three Muhammadiyah high schools in the South Tapanuli region: 50 from SMA Muhammadiyah 11 Padangsidimpuan, 25 from Mandailing Natal, and 25 from South Tapanuli. Data were collected using a validated and reliable questionnaire instrument (α = 0.842). The findings indicate a high level of internalisation of Mandailing cultural values among students, with significant regional differences based on ANOVA results (p < 0.05). The MERDEKA model is considered effective in facilitating character learning that is reflective, collaborative, and contextual. This study offers a theoretical contribution to the development of local wisdom-based character education models and provides practical recommendations for schools to implement culturally rooted character education.
