Abstract

Local history instruction at the high school level faces challenges such as a lack of contextual learning media, minimal use of historical sites specifically those in Palu City as learning resources, and low student interest in understanding their own region's history. This study aims to develop and assess the feasibility of a leaflet on Palu City's historical sites as a history learning medium for high school students. The study employs the Research and Development (R&D) method using the ADDIE model, which encompasses the stages of Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation. The research subjects were students, with trials conducted involving a small group of 15 students and a large group of 30 students. Data were collected through observation, questionnaires, and documentation, utilising validation sheets for media, language, and content experts, as well as response questionnaires for students and teachers. The data were analysed using quantitative and qualitative descriptive analysis techniques. The results indicate that the developed leaflet received a "highly feasible" rating from experts (subject to minor revisions). In contrast, trial results showed scores of 84.7% for the small group and 90% for the large group both falling into the "excellent" category. Thus, the Palu City historical site leaflet is effective as a learning medium and a viable alternative for history instruction that emphasises a contextual approach and the preservation of local values.
