Pemanfaatan Tradisi Mappadendang sebagai Media Pembelajaran IPS berbasis Kearifan Lokal

Abstrak

The use of the Mappadendang tradition as a medium for teaching social studies based on local wisdom is an innovative effort to integrate Bugis-Makassar cultural values into the elementary school education process. This community service activity aims to address the problem of the lack of relevance of social studies material to the local context of students, while preserving the tradition of rice harvest celebrations, which are rich in social, spiritual, and mutual cooperation values. Through teacher training and the development of learning modules, this activity is expected to improve students' understanding of social studies concepts such as society, culture, and the environment, by utilizing elements of the Mappadendang ritual such as rhythm, performing arts, and gratitude. The anticipated results include increased student motivation to learn and a strengthening of local cultural identity in the South Sulawesi region.
