Abstract

Science Education in Indonesia faces challenges regarding contextual relevance. This study aimed to describe and analyze the perceptions of Science teachers in Malaka Regency, East Nusa Tenggara, towards the integration of local wisdom (LW) into the learning process. This approach is believed to bridge universal scientific concepts with students' cultural reality. The research employed a quantitative descriptive method with a survey design. The study population was all junior and senior high school Science teachers in Malaka, with a sample of 45 teachers selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected via a validated and reliable Likert-scale questionnaire and analyzed using descriptive statistics (mean scores and percentages). The results indicate that the overall perception of Science teachers in Malaka falls into the Very Positive category (composite mean score 4.25), signaling strong support for this approach. Although teachers hold very positive understanding and attitudes regarding the benefits of integration, they face significant challenges in implementation, mainly related to the scarcity of teaching modules specifically based on Malaka's local wisdom and time constraints for developing their own contextual materials. Teachers explicitly expressed an urgent need for training on ethnoscience integration methodology and the facilitation of contextual teaching materials. The study concludes that teachers' willingness to innovate is high, but the success of the implementation requires strategic institutional support.

Abstract

Background: The inadequacy of Pancasila and Civic Education (PPKn) instruction, which remains predominantly cognitive and lecture-based, thereby limiting internalization of nationalistic values among elementary school students, constitutes the main problem addressed in this study.Purpose:This study aims to develop a Value Clarification Technique (VCT) learning model to enhance nationalistic attitudes among elementary school students.Design/method/approach:Using a systematic literature review of peer-reviewed articles published between 2020 and 2025, this study identified, selected, evaluated, and synthesized relevant findings on VCT implementation in primary education.Results:Results demonstrate that the VCT model effectively cultivates nationalist attitudes through five structured stages: value stimulus presentation, value exploration, discussion-based clarification, value-based decision-making, and reflection. This model promotes active student participation in value learning, producing deeper internalization of national character than conventional methods. Integration of contextual learning media within VCT further enhances student motivation and participation.Contribution/value:The novelty of this study lies in positioning VCT within a sustainable educational management framework and examining the interconnected roles of instructional leadership, teacher professional development, and strategic resource management in systematic character education. Implications for the Merdeka Curriculum’s Pancasila student profile are discussed.
