Abstract

The dakon game, as one of the traditional games that has been widely known in Indonesia, has great potential to be integrated into mathematics learning in elementary schools, especially in the material of integer arithmetic operations. This article aims to analyze the benefits and applications of dakon as an interactive learning media that supports the understanding of the concepts of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of integers. With a game-based learning approach, dakon not only functions as a learning aid, but is also able to increase students' motivation in learning mathematics. This game makes it easier for teachers to explain abstract concepts in a more concrete and interesting way. The results of the study show that the integration of the dakon game in mathematics learning can improve students' understanding of integer arithmetic operations, train critical thinking skills, and encourage collaboration among students. In addition, the use of dakon in learning is in line with the principle of independent learning which emphasizes a fun and meaningful learning experience. By making dakon part of the learning strategy, teachers can create a more dynamic and interactive learning atmosphere, so that students can more easily understand the material and be actively involved in the learning process. The novelty of this research lies in its systematic exploration of how local cultural heritage—in the form of the dakon game—can be transformed into a structured pedagogical model for teaching arithmetic, which has not been widely implemented or documented in formal education contexts. This article recommends the dakon game as a strategic innovation in mathematics learning, especially to improve the quality of learning in elementary schools.

Abstract

The present paper investigates the development of modern batik painting techniques as they have been adopted and transformed within the Western fine arts context, with particular attention to the influences of Impressionist and aquarelle (watercolor) painting traditions. Through a qualitative analysis of artistic practices, historical developments, and technical methodologies, this study examines how the traditional Indonesian wax-resist dyeing technique has been elevated from craft status to recognized fine art medium in Western artistic discourse. The research identifies key challenges facing batik as fine art, including material limitations, institutional recognition barriers, the craft-versus-art dichotomy, and the difficulties of achieving painterly effects comparable to established Western media. Results demonstrate that the cross-pollination between batik techniques and Impressionist color theory, as well as aquarelle layering methods, has produced a distinctive hybrid art form that challenges conventional boundaries between craft and fine art. The study concludes that batik painting, when informed by Western painterly traditions, represents a significant yet underappreciated contribution to contemporary fine arts practice.

Abstract

The Javanese linguistic corpus is a field that is constantly being studied and examined, particularly in the context of research. Dasanama is a linguistic concept in the Javanese language that refers to synonyms. This study aims to explore the dasanama jarwa, or the meanings, of the words wong tuwa ‘parent/elders’ and bapak ‘father’. The subject of this study is drawn from a manuscript in the Widyapustaka Pakualaman collection titled Sestra Ageng Adidarma (Pi. 35), which contains the Ajidipa folktale and explains the meanings of the terms wong tuwa and bapak. The term wong tuwa has a counterpart in tiyang sěpuh, which carries a nuance of meaning that differs from its lexical definition (as found in a dictionary). The term wong tuwa implies that a person must be obeyed, whereas tiyang sěpuh implies that a person should be respected even if a misunderstanding occurs. Similarly, the word “bapak” has synonyms such as sudarma, rama, bapa, and yayah. The word sudarma means “blessing from God”; rama implies that a father has a duty to teach his children about religion; bapa refers to the means by which human life is conceived; and yayah which denotes the relationship between father and child, conveys a sense of kinship. Each of these words also conveys an identity—namely, social, spiritual, and natural dimensions. The findings of this study shed new light on the meanings of these words, which may be unfamiliar to the Javanese people today.

Abstract

Serat Jiljalaha is one of the anomalous Serats written in the 19th-century Javanese script. Using the form of tembang macapat from pupuh Dhandhanggula to pupuh Mijil, which presents the figure of Kyai Jajalanat (King of Satan) from Mount Candisewu, issuing immoral warnings ranging from usury, adultery, opium, gambling, to robbery. Through the aesthetic strategy of value reversal and religious parody, Jiljalaha became a sharp social critique of the colonial feudal situation at that time. When priyayi, ulama, and colonial governments appear as moral representations, in practice, they reproduce structural violence, exploitation, and immoral behaviour. With the approach of literary sociology, Raymond William, this study reads the Serat Jiljalaha as a dominant, residual and emergent cultural. Two main questions guide this analysis: how does the Jiljalaha represent and critique the dominant culture of religious morality, and how are traces of pre-Islamic Javanese residual culture and satirical elements as emergent culture used to dismantle the contradictions that dominate society at that time?. The results of the reading show that Jiljalaha is not only a parody, but also presents a form of symbolic resistance in which this Serat displays its opposite as a method of criticism. This text reveals how colonial power created performative morality while society experienced a deep crisis of ethical orientation. Serat jiljalaha captures the structure of feeling of 19th-century Javanese society, which is ambivalent towards the order that is collapsing but has not found a replacement. Through sociological readings, Serat Jiljalaha appear as a counterlesson to the Serat of teaching in general.

Abstract

This article examines the oral folklore of the legend of Babad Alas Prigi from an anthropological perspective. The purpose of this study is to determine the form of culture in the legend of Babad Alas Prigi in Trenggalek Regency, East Java. This research is a qualitative study with an ethnographic approach. Primary data was collected by in-depth interviews with cultural experts and reinforced with relevant literature sources. Researchers also used secondary data sources in the form of journal articles and books. Data analysis was carried out descriptively interpretative by processing interview data and narrated comprehensively. The results of the research obtained three forms of culture contained in the legend of Babad Alas Prigi in the form of ideas, activities, and artifacts. The ideas represented in the legend are harmony between brothers, focus on goals, and religiosity. Community activities that are still developing today are the larung sembonyo tradition. Meanwhile, the artifact encountered by the community is the existence of Goa Lawa, which is located in the Watulimo area of Trenggalek Regency. This anthropological study opens new insights for the community regarding the forms of culture that exist in oral tradition.

Abstract

This research aims to examine the social, religious, and cultural significance in the tradition of tilik kaji (visiting prospective pilgrims) in the rural Muslim community of Wonosobo. This tradition is carried out before the departure of the Hajj. The research uses a qualitative approach with ethnographic methods. Data collection is through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation of prospective pilgrims, families, community leaders, and residents involved in the tradition. Data analysis was carried out thematically to understand the relationship between cultural practices, religious values, and social relations of the community.The results of the research are that the tradition of the hajj ritual not only functions as a practice of friendship, but also as a medium for strengthening social solidarity, mutual cooperation culture, and the reproduction of people's religious values. The practice of bringing consumer necessities reflects the collective participation of the community in helping the host. In addition, the choice to visit before departure shows the social ethics of the community that avoids the impression of asking for souvenirs after returning from the hajj. This study recommends the importance of preserving local religious traditions as part of strengthening the social cohesion of rural Muslim communities.

Abstract

This paper examines the semiotics of symbols and meanings in promoting Javanese cultural heritage and the historic architecture of the Museum Karaton Surakarta Hadiningrat through TikTok. While prior research has explored heritage communication in cyberspaces, few studies have investigated how algorithmic dynamics on short-form video platforms shape cultural visibility. Employing a mixed-methods design combining content analysis, digital ethnography, and algorithm engagement tracking this study applies a semiotic analytical model to evaluate cultural representation strategies. Findings demonstrate that heritage-focused videos achieve greater reach and audience retention when aligned with trending formats, participatory storytelling, and platform-specific concordances. Theoretically, this research introduces a model of algorithmic cultural dissemination; practically, it offers strategies for heritage institutions to strengthen cultural business, smart enterprise development. Ultimately, the study underscores the potential of media algorithms not only as entertainment mechanisms but also as powerful tools of narrative storytelling, museum management innovation, and the advancement of sustainable cultural practices with both national and global impact.

Abstract

The role of language in people's lives is very important as a medium for passing on knowledge and traditions between generations. One manifestation of this linguistic richness is seen in the use of traditional lexicons in agricultural activities that are closely related to Javanese society, including the people of Kemurang Village, Brebes Regency, who rely on chili farming as their main livelihood. Semantic studies on agricultural lexicons are crucial in documenting and preserving traditional knowledge that is threatened with extinction due to modernization. This study aims to describe the agricultural lexicon of chili planting and describe the meaning of agricultural lexicons in the process of chili planting in Kemurang Village, Brebes Regency. To explore the problem under study, the researcher in this case uses the study of word class theory by Chaer (2012) as well as lexical and cultural semantic studies. The study uses a qualitative descriptive method with a semantic approach. The data are in the form of oral speech in the Ngapak dialect of Javanese used by farmers in the process of cultivating chili plants. The results of the study found that the chili farming process in Kemurang Village contained 48 lexicons consisting of noun, verb, and adjective categories, and each lexicon has lexical and cultural meaning . These lexicons are grouped into seven categories, namely: (1) the process of cultivating chili plants (2) the process of land preparation (3) naming types of chili plants (4) the process of sowing chili plants (5) the process of maintaining chili plants (6) mentioning the condition of chili plants, and finally (7) mentioning the harvest period of chili plants. This finding shows that the agricultural lexicon not only enriches agricultural technical knowledge, but also represents the cultural identity of the Kemurang Village community and has the potential to support the preservation of regional languages, especially the Ngapak dialect of Javanese.

Abstract

The digitalization of the Wara Genjong dance on YouTube represents a critical transition of local Javanese traditions into global participatory culture. This study aims to analyze the aesthetic communication and digital representation of the waranggana within this virtual space. Employing a qualitative desk research approach, this study applies Roland Barthes' semiotic analysis to decode verbal and visual signs in the high-definition YouTube broadcast of the "Pengantin Nusantara" event by Anjungan Jawa Timur (2021). The findings reveal a profound synthesis of textual lyrics and visual signifiers. The flawless execution of refined movements (wiraga alus) visually embodies spiritual resonance, while the dynamic manipulation of the traditional scarf (sampur diseblak) actively negotiates physical allure and deconstructs passive gender stereotypes. Ultimately, this aesthetic communication successfully reconstructs the waranggana myth, elevating her as a symbol of female bodily autonomy. By blending sacred aesthetics with secular folk traditions, the digital broadcast of the Gembyangan graduation ritual institutionalizes the cultural identity of Ngrajek hamlet (Dusun Ngrajek), located in Sambirejo Village, Tanjunganom District, Nganjuk Regency. In conclusion, digital platforms serve not merely as passive archives, but as active, resilient spaces for preserving intangible cultural heritage.
