Abstract

In the era of globalization and rapid technological advancement, local culture is increasingly marginalized, leading to a diminished understanding among students. To address this issue, the West Nusa Tenggara Education and Culture Office introduced the Saturday Culture program to enhance students' cultural knowledge. This study aims to examine the program's implementation in senior high schools in Mataram City, using structural functionalism theory to explore the interactions within the school system that influence the program. Employing a quantitative descriptive method, the research involved 86 high school teachers selected through accidental sampling. Data collection was conducted via questionnaires distributed using Google Forms, and the analysis utilized descriptive statistical methods. The findings show that the program's overall implementation is rated as good, though certain areas require improvement. From the structural functionalism perspective, the program successfully fulfills four main functions: adaptation, goal achievement, integration, and latency maintenance. These outcomes demonstrate the program's ability to meet environmental demands, achieve educational goals related to culture, and foster student's character development. This research contributes to academic and cultural studies by highlighting the necessity for ongoing enhancement and stronger stakeholder collaboration to ensure the program's long-term effectiveness and sustainability.

Abstract

Character education in schools often faces challenges in internalizing values through real-life experiences. Limited student engagement makes character education less meaningful. This study aims to describe the implementation of character education through the Community Service Program (Sekolah Kerja Nyata, SKN) and to identify the values it fosters. Using a descriptive qualitative method, data were collected through in-depth interviews with the principal, supervising teachers, and students. The results show that SKN successfully fostered values such as responsibility, cooperation, social awareness, independence, and religiosity. Students demonstrated improvements in discipline, communication skills, and leadership through participation in social activities. The program aligns with experiential character education approaches that emphasize social interaction as a means of value formation. The study concludes that SKN is an effective model of character education by integrating academic learning and attitude development through direct engagement. SKN also has the potential to be adopted as a co-curricular activity within the new curriculum structure, as it supports cross-disciplinary learning and character development through contextual, project-based approaches. These findings provide a foundation for developing similar programs in other schools to strengthen character formation relevant to real life.
