Abstract

This study investigates how PBL enhances students’ critical thinking abilities as they compose narrative texts based on indigenous narratives in an English as a Foreign Language (EFL) classroom. The research conducted among 35 ninth-grade students (divided into seven groups) in a public junior high school in Bandung, Indonesia, using qualitative methods, including observation and document analysis, the study evaluates students' critical thinking through the Critical Thinking VALUE Rubric. Results indicate that PBL significantly promoted critical thinking, with students engaging in deeper reflection on cultural, ethical, and social issues in their narrative projects. High-Perceived Critical Thinking (HPCT) stories exhibited greater complexity and analysis than Low-Perceived Critical Thinking (LPCT) stories, which focused more on practical aspects. The PBL model can improve students' critical thinking skills, as evidenced by four out of seven groups falling into the High-Perceived Critical Thinking (HPCT) category. This study is significant because previous research has rarely combined culturally relevant content with structured critical thinking development in EFL contexts, creating a gap in effective instructional strategies. Therefore, it is recommended that EFL educators integrate culturally meaningful project-based tasks with explicit scaffolding to systematically nurture both critical thinking skills and language proficiency among learners.

Abstract

This study maps the development of local wisdom research in Indonesia using a bibliometric approach to identify publication trends, dominant themes, emerging topics, and research gaps. Data were retrieved from Google Scholar on 13 May 2024, covering publications from 2015 to 2024. After screening and deduplication, 545 validated documents were analyzed using Publish or Perish, Mendeley, and VOSviewer through citation analysis, keyword co-occurrence, network visualization, overlay visualization, and density mapping. The results show a substantial increase in publication output, particularly after 2022, indicating growing scholarly attention to local wisdom in relation to education, culture, and sustainable development. The dominant thematic clusters are centered on character education, curriculum integration, student learning, and value transmission demonstrating that local wisdom has primarily been positioned as pedagogical within indonesian scholarship. Overlay analysis reveals a shift from preservation-oriented studies toward implementation-based themes such as innovation, strategy, and contextual learning. However, weak keyword connectivity is found in areas related to student engagement, participatory learning, experiential approaches, digital preservation, and interdisciplinary collaboration, indicating underexplored directions in the current literature. The findings further suggest that local wisdom research in Indonesia is more education-oriented than ecological or governance-oriented, differing from several international trends in indigenous knowledge studies. Future research should therefore prioritize student-centered learning models, technology-supported cultural preservation, and stronger collaboration between educational institutions and local communities.
