The Effectiveness of Kebo Kinul Traditional Dance Learning Videos Embedded With Local Wisdom on Elementary Students’ Understanding of Collaborative Character Values

Abstract

The internalization of Pancasila values among elementary school students remains insufficient, particularly regarding tolerance, responsibility, and social awareness, highlighting the importance of contextual character education grounded in local wisdom. This study aims to describe the effectiveness of a Kebo Kinul dance instructional video incorporating local wisdom in enhancing elementary school students’ understanding of the value of cooperation. This study employs a qualitative approach with a descriptive design. Data collection was conducted through observation, interviews, and documentation involving one fifth-grade teacher, 10 students, and one school principal. Data analysis was carried out through the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions, while data validity was ensured through triangulation techniques. The results of the study indicate that the use of Kebo Kinul dance educational videos is effective in enhancing students’ understanding of the value of cooperation. This is evidenced by increased student engagement in group activity discussions, as well as the emergence of collaborative behaviors such as cooperation, mutual respect, shared responsibility, unity in completing tasks, tolerance, responsibility, and social awareness. The conclusion of this study shows that educational video media on Kebo Kinul dance containing local wisdom is effective as a means of instilling collaborative character values, containing elements of local wisdom in understanding the value of collaboration in elementary schools.
