Abstract

Despite increasing recognition of Indigenous knowledge systems, the role of informal adult learning within customary communities remains under-theorized in mainstream adult education discourse. There is limited understanding of how traditional practices, beliefs, and community structures shape learning processes outside formal institutions. This study investigates the role of informal adult learning in Kampung Adat Banceuy, a Sundanese customary village in West Java, Indonesia. The research focuses on how learning is embedded in four interconnected domains: customary leadership, ritual practice, selective acculturation, and community-based tourism. These domains form a cohesive learning ecology through which cultural knowledge, social roles, and ethical values are transmitted and adapted across generations. Using an ethnographic methodology, the study involved participant observation, semi-structured interviews with 36 informants, and analysis of cultural documents. Data were examined through thematic coding and interpretive analysis to capture the nuanced, situated processes of learning as enacted in everyday life. Findings show that informal adult learning in Banceuy is relational, embodied, and performative. Tourism, in particular, functions as a reflexive learning environment where adults develop narrative, logistical, and intercultural competencies while negotiating cultural meaning and ethical boundaries. Rather than being a site of commodification, tourism becomes a space of identity work and adaptive pedagogy. These insights challenge conventional hierarchies of formal education and affirm the centrality of Indigenous learning systems in sustaining cultural resilience. The study offers implications for policy and theory, emphasizing the need to support culturally embedded, community-driven models of adult education.

Abstract

This study investigated the relationship between educators’ communication skills, emotional maturity, and non-discrimination attitudes and their influence on learner motivation in equivalency education programs at SPNF SKB Takalar, Indonesia. Equivalency education, designed to provide alternative pathways for individuals who did not complete formal schooling, requires sustained learner motivation to achieve its social and educational goals. The study aimed to identify the extent to which these three educator attributes contribute to learner engagement and persistence. A quantitative descriptive-correlational design was employed. The population included 115 learners enrolled in equivalency programs, with a random sample of 40 participants. Data were collected using structured questionnaires assessing communication skills, emotional maturity, non-discrimination attitudes, and learner motivation. Statistical analysis involved descriptive measures and Pearson product-moment correlations to examine associations among the variables. Findings revealed that all three attributes were rated as “fairly good” by learners and significantly correlated with learner motivation. Communication skills emerged as the strongest predictor, highlighting the importance of clarity, immediacy, and relational engagement. Emotional maturity demonstrated a strong link with motivation, emphasizing empathy, resilience, and regulation in shaping supportive classroom climates. Non-discrimination attitudes were also significant, underscoring the role of fairness and inclusivity in fostering learners’ confidence and persistence.

Abstract

Despite ongoing efforts to expand adult literacy programs under SDG 4, participation and sustained engagement in rural contexts remain uneven, and the mechanisms that support persistence in community-based settings are not well understood. This study examines how faith-based community education supports adult functional literacy participation and perceived outcomes in relation to Sustainable Development Goal 4 (SDG 4) in rural Indonesia. Focusing on Muslimat NU learning activities in Pamekasan, the study investigates adult learners’ motivations for participation, the learning climate, the roles of religious practices and authority, and perceived literacy-related outcomes. The study employed a cross-sectional descriptive survey design involving 64 adult participants. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire capturing participation motivations, perceptions of the learning environment, integration of religious practices, the influence of moral authority, and self-reported literacy and capability outcomes. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and qualitative descriptive interpretation of open-ended responses. Findings show that participation was predominantly agentic and instrumental, driven by literacy aspirations and family-related motivations rather than passive compliance. The learning environment was perceived as effectively safe and enjoyable, supporting sustained participation. Religious practices such as prayer and Islamic adab functioned as normative learning infrastructure, structuring continuity and attention. Moral authority, embodied by kyai and nyai figures, operated as non-coercive regulatory capital, reinforcing attendance discipline. Participants also reported perceived improvements in literacy, alongside broader economic and social spillovers. The study contributes to adult literacy research by elucidating socially embedded mechanisms—motivation, affective safety, ritual practice, and moral authority—through which faith-based community settings can support functional literacy engagement in support of SDG 4.
