Abstract

This qualitative case study investigates the utilization of the Asia-Africa Conference Museum (Museum KAA) as a learning resource for teaching democratic liberal history to twelfth-grade social studies students in Bandung, Indonesia. Through observations, interviews, and document analysis, the research explores how teachers integrate this local heritage site into their pedagogy. Findings indicate that while educators recognize the museum's significant potential for fostering contextual and authentic historical understanding, its direct use remains limited due to structural constraints such as time restrictions and scheduling conflicts. Consequently, teachers often resort to digital adaptations, including videos and virtual materials, as alternative resources. The study highlights the tension between the ideal of place-based learning and the practical realities of the formal curriculum. It contributes to discussions on contextual history pedagogy and the innovative use of local historical sites to enhance historical literacy and student engagement within Indonesia’s educational landscape.

Abstract

This study developed a booklet on Dutch colonial heritage buildings in Cepu as an alternative teaching resource for historical research learning in Indonesian high schools. Using a Research and Development (R&D) approach, the study identified a lack of locally relevant teaching materials under the new Merdeka Curriculum. The booklet was designed to provide contextual examples of historical research using nearby heritage sites. Expert validation by material and media specialists yielded high feasibility scores (90.3% and 86%, respectively). Limited trials with 36 students showed positive reception, with an 83% approval rating indicating the booklet was engaging and effective. The study concludes that locally anchored, visually rich booklets can enhance historical literacy, support curriculum flexibility, and foster student connection to regional history. This contributes to discourse on Curriculum and Media Innovation for Historical Literacy, offering a replicable model for developing context-sensitive resources in post-colonial educational settings.

Abstract

This qualitative case study critically examines challenges history teachers face implementing Indonesia’s Merdeka Curriculum at SMA Negeri 12 Semarang. Through interviews, observations, and document analysis, it explores teacher perceptions, practices, obstacles, and coping strategies. Findings indicate teachers value the curriculum’s flexibility and student-centered philosophy, yet implementation is hindered by limited understanding of new concepts, difficulty designing differentiated instruction, insufficient professional development, and inadequate resources. Teachers navigate these constraints via informal collegial sharing, self-directed learning, and gradual experimentation. The study contributes to international discourse on curriculum reform in post-colonial systems, highlighting policy innovation and teacher agency. It underscores the need for sustained, context-sensitive professional support, offering insights for policymakers and educators in the Global South.

Abstract

This qualitative study examines how direct engagement with local heritage sites shapes historical consciousness in post-colonial classrooms. Engaging Indonesian tenth-graders with Liyangan, a pre-colonial site buried by volcanic eruption, the research investigates site visits as critical pedagogical intervention against textbook-dominated history instruction. Drawing on interviews with teachers, students, and site custodians, findings reveal that heritage encounters foster multidimensional awareness: students demonstrated heightened curiosity about marginalized local pasts, stronger preservation motivation, and deeper engagement with cultural traditions. The model creates transformative spaces where formal knowledge meets community memory, enabling learners to confront buried histories as reconciliatory practice. While implementation faces structural constraints—time, finance, transportation—this study contributes to global conversations on place-based pedagogy and heritage education in post-colonial societies.

Abstract

This qualitative study critically examines the implementation of moral and character education within history teaching under Indonesia's Merdeka Curriculum. Drawing on interviews, observations, and document analysis at two public high schools in Kudus, Central Java, the research reveals significant gaps between curriculum policy and classroom practice. While the curriculum provides a framework, integration of character values remains suboptimal due to overemphasis on the Pancasila Student Profile project, insufficient teacher training, non-strategic scheduling, and lack of validated teaching materials. Student perspectives indicate varied and often limited reception of character education. The findings contribute to global debates on post-colonial curriculum reform, teacher agency, and the challenges of embedding moral education in history teaching. The study underscores the need for balanced, intentional pedagogical approaches to translate policy into meaningful practice, advocating for sustained professional development and context-sensitive resource development

Abstract

This conceptual study explores the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and digital archives to develop an innovative inquiry-based learning model for local history education within Indonesia's Merdeka Curriculum. Through a systematic literature review, the research examines how AI tools like ChatGPT and Google Lens can mitigate challenges in source access and analysis, thereby fostering students' critical thinking, analytical reasoning, and historical literacy. The proposed model leverages digital archives to provide contextualized primary sources, while AI acts as a cognitive scaffold to support hypothesis formulation, text interpretation, and evidence evaluation. Findings suggest that this synergistic approach can transform students from passive recipients into active historical investigators, enabling meaningful engagement with local narratives. The study contributes to discourse on pedagogical innovation, digital resource utilization, and the development of 21st-century historical competencies in post-colonial educational settings.

Abstract

This study develops and evaluates a Virtual Public History model for peace education among Central Java high school students. Using Research and Development with the ADDIE model, local narratives of conflict and reconciliation were integrated into an interactive digital platform. Expert validation and limited trials with 25 students revealed a critical paradox: high pedagogical relevance and cultural sensitivity contrasted sharply with infrastructural constraints and low technical feasibility. Findings demonstrate strong demand for contextually resonant peace-oriented content while highlighting persistent digital divides. Contributing to discourse on History Education as Social and Reconciliatory Practice, the study proposes an "offline-first" hybrid implementation strategy. It offers nuanced critique of globally circulating digital pedagogy models, emphasizing necessary adaptation of technological innovations to local socio-material realities in post-colonial societies for sustainable educational impact.
