Abstract

This study focuses on developing local wisdom-based learning modules for social studies education in secondary schools within Bandung City, Indonesia, addressing the critical need to integrate culturally relevant content into national curriculum frameworks. As globalization increasingly influences educational content, preserving and transmitting local cultural knowledge through formal schooling becomes essential for maintaining cultural identity while fostering meaningful learning connections. Employing Research and Development (R&D) methodology following the ADDIE model (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation), this investigation developed five thematic modules incorporating Sundanese cultural elements including traditional governance systems, economic practices, environmental wisdom, social values, and artistic expressions. The modules underwent rigorous validation by content experts, instructional design specialists, and cultural practitioners, followed by pilot implementation across six secondary schools involving 180 students and twelve social studies teachers. Results demonstrate that the developed modules achieved high validity scores (content validity: 4.52/5.00; instructional design: 4.48/5.00), proved highly practical according to teacher assessments (4.61/5.00), and significantly enhanced student learning outcomes with 87% achieving mastery levels compared to 64% in conventional instruction. Students reported increased cultural awareness, pride in local heritage, and enhanced engagement through culturally relevant pedagogy, supporting local wisdom integration as effective strategy for meaningful, contextualized social studies education.
