History of the Serang Regent’s Office its Role as the Center of Colonial Goverment in Serang Regency in 1829-1945
This research aims to determine the history of the Serang Regent's Office and its role as the Center of Colonial Government in Serang Regency in 1829-1945. The method used in this research is historical research methods assisted by the theory of cultural heritage, colonization and the emergence of colonial cities. The research results show that the Serang Regent's office was completed in 1826 and began to be actively used as the Serang Regent's office in 1829, a year after the government center moved from Kaibon to the Serang area. This development was motivated by the ineffectiveness of the central government in Kaibon and the lack of adequate government offices at that time. From the start, this building was designed as an office and official residence for the Serang regents who served and was used as the center of colonial government activities, as well as the center of community activities in various aspects of life, both religious life, social life and culture.

The Role of Sutan Sjahrir in the Jong Indonesia Organization in Support of Indonesian Independence
This study discusses the significant role of Sutan Sjahrir in the Jong Indonesia organization as part of the struggle for Indonesian independence. Sutan Sjahrir, a young intellectual and nationalist figure, is known as one of the ten pioneering youths in the establishment of Jong Indonesia, which later changed its name to Pemuda Indonesia. This organization became the driving force behind the birth of the Youth Pledge in 1928, an important milestone in uniting the spirit of nationalism across regions and ethnicities. This study uses a historical method with the stages of heuristics, verification, interpretation, and historiography. Data were obtained through literature studies of primary sources such as books by Rudolf Mrazek and Y.B. Mangunwijaya, as well as secondary sources from scientific journals and relevant documents. The results of the study show that Sjahrir played an important role not only as the initiator of the organization, but also as the driver of the idea of national unity through an intellectual approach and social movements. Through his activities in education, journalism, and youth organizations, Sjahrir was able to spread progressive ideas that challenged colonialism and inspired a spirit of nationalism among the younger generation. His role in building the foundation of modern nationalist thought and non-violent struggle is an important legacy for Indonesia's journey to independence.

The Dynamics of Islamic Thought and Practice in Indonesia: History, Transformation, and Relevance in Islamic Education
This research aims to describe and analyze the dynamics of Islamic thought and civilization in Indonesia from the perspective of history and ideological transformation, as well as evaluate its relevance and application in Islamic education today. The problems studied include how the intellectual journey of Islam in Indonesia developed from the early days of Islam to the contemporary era, changes in the paradigm of thought from traditionalism to modernism and neo-modernism, and how this thinking can be the basis for the development of adaptive, inclusive and progressive Islamic education. The focus of the research is directed at the ideological transformation of Islamic thought and its relevance in the context of modern Islamic education that is able to shape character and national insight according to the dynamics of today's society. The method used is library research with a historical and intellectual approach, involving the collection, verification, interpretation, and historiography of literary sources such as books, scientific articles, and related documents. The results show that Islamic thought in Indonesia has experienced a dynamic and plural development, ranging from traditional influences that are accommodating to local culture, to the emergence of modern and neo-modern thought that emphasizes rationality, pluralism, and democracy. This transformation has implications for Islamic education, which is now increasingly integrating Islamic values with the needs of the times, forming people with character and insight, and strengthening an inclusive and adaptive national education system.

Nostalgia in the Digital Age: Tanjleb Screen (2007- 2024) and its impact on Purbalingga Community
Layar Tanjleb, the flagship program of the Purbalingga Film Festival (FFP) since 2007, offers an alternative form of entertainment resembling traditional open-air cinema. Initiated by Bowo Leksono, a former Jakarta journalist and founder of the Cinema Lovers Community (CLC), the program aims to promote film culture in Purbalingga. Its first film, “Orang Buta dan Penuntunnyaâ€ (2004), sparked mobile film screenings for high school students starting in 2005. Layar Tanjleb organizes free open-air screenings, showcasing fiction and documentary films by young directors, including works in the local Javanese Ngapak dialect. This study explores the evolution of Layar Tanjleb as a digital-era form of entertainment and its impacts on the creative economy as well as socio-cultural aspects. Using historical methods (heuristics, source criticism, interpretation, historiography) combined with interviews, observations, and literature review, the research demonstrates how Tanjleb strengthens local identity. The findings reveal that, to date, Tanjleb has screened 858 films and reached more than 135,000 viewers. The program has proven effective in reinforcing community bonds, promoting cultural pride, and stimulating growth. Layar Tanjleb is not merely entertainment, but also a medium of cultural education, local identity promotion, and a driving force of the creative economy ecosystem in Purbalingga.
Representation of Jeans as a Form of Resistance in Jakarta Demonstrations 1970-1998
This research examines the role of jeans as a symbol of social resistance in student demonstrations in Jakarta in 1970-1998. Initially seen as an icon of modernity and globalization, jeans over time became an identity for students and activists who opposed the repressive policies of the New Order. During the 1974 Malari Demonstrations, students wore jeans as a form of criticism against economic dependence on foreign capital, and signaled their solidarity with workers affected by ongoing economic injustice. During the 1998 Reformation, jeans reappeared as a symbol of resistance against the Soeharto government, which was considered authoritarian and corrupt. This research uses a historical research method with a social history approach. The research process includes collecting data sources (heuristics), analyzing data validity (source criticism), interpreting the symbolic meaning of jeans, and compiling historical narratives (historiography). By referring to Sartono Kartodirdjo's concept of social history, the results of this study show that material culture, such as jeans, is not only part of the lifestyle, but also a form of political expression tool in the student movement. The existence of this research can confirm that clothing can also play a role in shaping collective identity and voicing aspirations for social change in society.
The Effect of the Application of Doctor Rubini's Biography as a Resource for Learning History on the Critical Thinking Ability of Class XI of SMA Negeri 1 Tebas
This study was conducted to determine the effect of the policy of Dr. Rubini's biography as a source of learning history on the critical thinking skills of class XI students of SMA Negeri 1 Tebas. The method used was an experiment with a Pre-Experimental Design design and data analysis using the swimmer test and the dependent sample t-test. The data sources in this study were history teachers, class XI students, and learning media. The results showed that the average pretest score of 54.83 was in the moderate category, while the average posttest score increased to 65.32 in the good category. The low initial ability of students was due to the low exploration of local values in history learning. After the application of Dr. Rubini's biography, there was a significant increase in critical thinking skills. The results of the t-test showed a significance value of 0.001 <0.05, which means that there is a significant influence of the application of the biography on students' critical thinking skills.

During the period of 1999-2019, the Nadran tradition in the Gunung Jati sub-district, Cirebon Regency, underwent various changes. This tradition, which comprises three processions Sedekah Laut, Sedekah Bumi, and Arak-arakan was the focus of a historical study aimed at understanding its meaning for the local community and its development over time. The research, which utilized primary and secondary sources along with historical methodology (heuristics, criticism, interpretation, and historiography), found that the tradition faced several challenges, including disputes among participants, a lack of security, and limited funding. Despite these difficulties, the community continued to hold the Nadran tradition as a means of cultural preservation and an expression of gratitude. Â
SEJARAH-HIDUP Learning Model and the Merdeka Curriculum Reform: A framework for contextual and reflective history learning based on local culture
The teaching of history in Indonesia remains predominantly centered on national narratives, often disconnected from the lived cultural realities of students. This article introduces the “SEJARAH-HIDUPâ€ model (Students Explore, Record, Aspire), pedagogical framework developed to revitalize history education through contextual, reflective, and community-based learning. Situated within the flexibility of the Kurikulum Merdeka, this model seeks to integrate local cultural heritage as a primary medium for historical inquiry and identity formation. This study employs a qualitative design based on an extensive literature review and triangulation of theories and sources. Findings indicate that the SEJARAH-HIDUP model not only bridges the gap between national curriculum design and students’ sociocultural contexts but also enhances historical consciousness and active citizenship. The model offers both theoretical advancement and practical guidance for integrating local narratives into transformative history education. This work contributes to the growing body of literature advocating for decolonized, place-responsive curricula in postcolonial education systems.

These results indicate that the encyclopedia is a feasible and practical resource for learning history at MAN 4 Madiun.
Implementation of the Constructivist Approach in the Advanced History Learning Process at SMAN 1 Alalak
Teachers as those in control of the learning process should implement an approach that fully supports students. However, learning is often teacher-centered leaving students passive, especially in advanced history subjects. This study aims to analyze the planning, implementation and assessment of advanced history learning at SMAN 1 Alalak using a constructivist approach. The research method is a qualitative case study with data collection techniques including interviews, observations and documents. The results show that teachers design plans that can make students active in learning. During the learning process, teachers act as facilitators and students construct knowledge based on their cognitive abilities and through social interactions with teachers and peers. Assessment of the learning process is carried out using formative and summative assessments to identify students' needs, development and learning outcomes. Based on this, the implementation of the learning process at SMAN 1 Alalak using a constructivist approach is running very well.
Harmony of Acculturation in the Land of Panji Sakti: Weaving the Traces of Nyama Bali and Nyama Selam in Tegallinggah’s Cross-Cultural Relations
This study aims to explore forms of cultural acculturation between Hindu (Nyama Bali) and Muslim (Nyama Selam) communities in Tegallinggah Village, Sukasada District, Buleleng Regency, Bali. The research employed a descriptive-historical qualitative approach through literature study, documentation of village archives, and narrative analysis. The findings reveal three main points. First, the arrival of Islam in Tegallinggah began in the 17th century when Bugis groups came to support Panji Sakti’s expedition and later settled in the area. Second, Subak Wingin serves as a functional example of acculturation in natural resource management by combining the Tri Hita Karana principles with Muslim social practices, fostering interfaith solidarity in irrigation governance. Third, Muslim marriage traditions in Tegallinggah integrate local Balinese vocabulary, symbols, and practices, such as the use of Malay pantun during courtship, the base tampin ritual during engagement, and the mepacar and metangas ceremonies. These practices reflect values of tolerance and respect for local customs passed down through generations. The study underscores that cultural acculturation in Tegallinggah is not merely passive tolerance but an active, everyday practice that shapes a unique hybrid cultural identity. The results are expected to contribute to the development of local history learning materials that promote pluralism and social harmony among students.
From Hobby to Global Tradition: The Early History of the Wonosobo Hot Air Balloon Festival and the Role of Kretek District (2004-2006)
The hot air balloon tradition in Wonosobo has evolved from a local pastime to a world-class cultural tourism festival, yet the Kretek District’s central role as a pioneer and guardian of this tradition remains largely unknown. This study aims to identify and analyze the history of Kretek in the development of the Wonosobo hot air balloon festival, describe the evolution of balloon flying practices over time, and document the individuals and communities who preserve the tradition. This study uses historical research methods. Although these methods generally rely on archives and written documents, this study gained important information from in-depth interviews with balloon flyers from the 1990s to 2008. These interviews not only serve as a complement to archival data but also serve as a primary source for understanding experiences, motivations, challenges, and innovations not formally recorded. The research reveals that Kretek has deep roots dating back to the Dutch era, inspired by the 1915 balloon landing, with Atmo Goper as a pioneer. This tradition has evolved significantly in materials, design (thanks to Mr. Kasuri and the “pendulumâ€), and ignition technique (the transition to coconut shells). Informal communities in Kretek preserve hereditary skills through collaboration. At its peak, the 2005-2006 Wonosobo Balloon Festival was officially held, winning two MURI awards in 2006, confirming national recognition of this Kretek cultural heritage.
Implementation of Project Based Learning Model Based on Pop-Up Book Media to Improve Student's Creativity In History Lesson
This study aims to analyze the implementation of the Project-Based Learning (PjBL) model using Pop-Up Book media in enhancing students' creativity in history learning at SMA Negeri 1 Gebog Kudus. The research is motivated by the need to create learning experiences that encourage active student engagement and the development of 21st-century skills, particularly creativity. A descriptive qualitative method with a case study approach was employed, involving a history teacher and students from class XI F-8 as the research subjects. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and document analysis, and were analyzed using data triangulation techniques. The findings indicate that the implementation of PjBL with Pop-Up Book media effectively enhances the four indicators of student creativity: fluency in thinking, flexibility, originality, and idea elaboration. This suggests that the use of Pop-Up Book-based PjBL is a relevant and adaptable creative learning alternative across various educational levels and subjects.

The Impact of Sugarcane Plantations on the Socio-Economic Life of the Community in Sungai Asam Village, Kerinci Regency (2000–2023)
This article discusses the Impact of Sugarcane Plantations on the Socio-Economic Life of the Community in Sungai Asam Village, Kerinci Regency 2000-2023. This article was written to analyze the Development of Sugarcane Plantations in Sungai Asam Village in 2000-2023 and its Impact on the socio-economic life of the community. This article uses a socio-economic history approach and uses the theory of agricultural involution developed by Clifford Geertz as an analytical tool to explain the subject matter. Then to analyze the problems in this thesis, historical research methods are used, namely heuristics, source criticism, interpretation and historiography. The results of this study indicate that sugarcane plantations as the economy of the community in Sungai Asam Village and are the largest sugarcane plantations in Kerinci Regency, but have not been able to provide welfare for the lives of sugarcane farmers. The welfare of farmers depends on fluctuations in the price of sugarcane. This then creates the dynamics of farmers' lives in the community which is reflected in the level of community consumption.
The Existence of Railway Transportation in the Cirebon Region, 1900–1942
The need for transportation in the Cirebon region in the early twentieth century was primarily driven by the limited means of transporting plantation products, particularly sugarcane, to the port as the center of export distribution. At that time, the dominant mode of transport was the railway. Interestingly, since the 1900s Cirebon had two types of rail services, namely conventional trains and trams. Their existence not only accelerated the mobilization of plantation products but also reduced transportation costs, which had previously relied on traditional overland means. The role of the railway was highly significant for the sugar industry, as Cirebon was one of the key regions in the sugarcane plantation network in Java. However, the use of railways was not limited to sugar entrepreneurs. Over time, the railway network also served the mobility needs of the general population, both in terms of passenger transport and the shipment of other trade commodities. This study employs the historical method, which includes the stages of heuristics, source criticism, interpretation, and historiography. This approach allows for a systematic examination of archival records, company reports, and colonial documents related to the dynamics of transportation in Cirebon. The findings reveal that the railway system in Cirebon was not only a vital infrastructure supporting the colonial plantation economy but also transformed into a public facility that accelerated urbanization, expanded local trade networks, and enhanced socio-economic mobility. Therefore, the railway in Cirebon played a dual role: as a key driver of the colonial plantation-based economy and as an instrument of transportation modernization that connected Cirebon with other regions in Java.
This study aims to examine the role of hotels in Medan during the colonial period, not only as places of accommodation but also as centers of social and cultural activities. The research uses a qualitative method with a content analysis approach, intended to draw conclusions based on historical data while considering the socio-cultural context of the time. The findings reveal that colonial-era hotels in Medan played a significant role in social life, serving as venues for gatherings, parties, and events attended by various elite groups such as colonial officials, entrepreneurs, and community leaders. Although many of these hotels no longer exist, their architectural and historical legacy continues to influence the development of the hospitality industry in Medan today.
History and Characteristics of the Arab Village Settlement Al-Munawar 13 Ulu, Palembang, South Sumatra
Palembang, with the beauty of the Musi River flowing through its city center, serves as a central point in the community's life. The city of Palembang is divided into two regions, namely Seberang Ulu (Ulu) and Seberang Ilir (Ilir), separated by the Musi River since the era of the Palembang Sultanate. The Arab ethnic community in Palembang is concentrated in several villages, one of which is Arabian Village Al-Munawar 13 Ulu Palembang, a settlement of the descendants of Habib Abdurrahman or Abdullah Al- Munawar who settled from Hadhramaut. They adhere strictly to the practice of marrying within the Arab lineage and reside along the banks of the Musi River. This village holds the potential for development but also requires preservation to prevent possible displacement in the future. The village's houses encompass various forms, including "limas" houses, warehouses, "Indies" houses, and raised platform houses. This research employs historical research methods to reveal the historical legacy, distinctive characteristics of Palembang, and the ethnic and cultural diversity in Arabian Village Al-Munawar 13 Ulu Palembang. The study concludes that Kampung Arab Al-Munawar 13 Ulu Palembang, existing for about 250 years, was the residence of traders' descendants from Hadhramaut. With marriage customs and settlement patterns reflecting the community's adaptation to its environment, this village holds significance in the historical and cultural diversity context of Palembang.

The Biography of Tilaar’s Thought in Historical Perception: Critical-TransformatIve Pedagogy
This study aims to examine the intellectual biography of Henry Alexis Rudolf (HAR) Tilaar, one of Indonesia’s most prominent educational figures, particularly in the context of critical-transformative pedagogy. Tilaar viewed education not merely as a medium of knowledge transmission but as an instrument for liberating human beings from injustice, oppression, and social inequality by fostering critical awareness among individuals and society. The research employs the historical method with a literature review approach as the primary source to trace the dynamics of Tilaar’s educational thought over time. The findings reveal that Tilaar’s ideas evolved in an unusual trajectory: beginning with a conservative tendency in his youth, moving toward a constructive orientation during his service at Bappenas, and later becoming increasingly critical and radical after his retirement. This pattern stands in contrast to the general tendency among scholars, who often grow more conservative as their socio-economic status becomes more secure, whereas Tilaar became progressively more critical and radical in his educational perspectives.

The results showed that the web design-based ebooklet was effective in increasing students' understanding of local history, especially recognizing the figure of Major Hamid Rusdi.
From New Regency to Claims of the New Sultan: Legacy of Identity of Siak Sultanate
The regional autonomy of Reformasi has given rise to regional identity issues, including restorations of historical sultanates. This paper aims to explain the use of Siak Sultanate legacy, from identity of Siak Regency to claims of new sultan of Siak. This research was conducted based on historical methods through literature exploration and interview. We found that the regency goverment of Siak has successfully utilize some of the sultanate legacy for identity and tourism, while the situation is more complex for the ‘Sultan’ of Siak. Kekerabatan Resam as ‘official representative’ of Siak sultanate has no declared restoration, while claims to a new sultan have emerged. The controversy centres on the ambiguity of lineage, power of Kekerabatan Resam, knowledge of traditions, and certain motives driving the restoration.

Environment Cultural Learning Model: A New Perception in Socio-Cultural-Based Environment History Learning
The purpose of this study is to describe a new learning model for teaching environmental history based on a sociocultural approach. This research employs a qualitative design, in which questionnaires were distributed to history teachers to collect data. The analysis process was conducted in three stages: data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The result of this study is the development of a new learning model referred to as Environment Cultural Learning. This model has a syntax consisting of five stages: exploration, contextualization, application, collaboration, and reflection. The findings indicate that no specific model has previously outlined environmental history along with sociocultural values. Therefore, this study aims to provide an innovative learning model to support teachers. The Environment Cultural Learning model can be applied in the teaching of environmental history by exploring the environment and identifying sociocultural values that can be taught to students. This model consists of five stages: exploration, contextualization, application, collaboration, and reflection.
Transmigration of Javanese People to Ujung Batu IV Village, Sosa District Padang Lawas Regency, North Sumatra 1982-2022

The 1927 Silungkang Rebellion in a Historiographical Review
This study examines the 1927 Silungkang Rebellion in a Historiographical Review. The historiographical review was conducted on three works specifically discussing the Silungkang Rebellion written by Indonesians. This study uses a content analysis method. This method is used to identify the content of an event. The results of this study from the three works studied show differences in the background and education of the authors. Some are academic writers and amateur writers, while in terms of education, some are elementary school graduates, Doctorates (S3), and high school. Based on these differences, they influence the resulting works, especially in writing and how the authors provide their views and interpretations of the work. In addition, in the work there are two eras: the author's era (the New Order and Reformation eras) and the war era, when the event occurred, which was the colonial era.
Land of Hope: British Colonization in New Zealand (1840-1855)
New Zealand was initially a refuge for British convicts from Australia and was regarded as a land of hope for rebuilding their lives. Over time, however, New Zealand was inhabited not only by convicts but also by various other groups seeking economic opportunity and a new livelihood. This development prompted the British government to establish a colonial state in New Zealand in 1840, appointing William Hobson as its first governor. This study aims to examine British colonization in New Zealand, encompassing the Treaty of Waitangi and the early formation of the colony, New Zealand’s transformation into a British crown colony, and the situation in New Zealand between 1852 and 1855. The research employs the historical method, which consists of several stages: topic selection, source collection (utilizing heuristics), verification (external and internal criticism), interpretation (analysis and synthesis), and historiography. The findings suggest that the need for territorial expansion and competition with France contributed to the establishment of a British colonial state in New Zealand. The colony of New Zealand was formally established through the Treaty of Waitangi, signed by British representatives and Maori chiefs. In 1841, New Zealand officially became a crown colony, meaning that it possessed a structured system of colonial governance under a governor with authority comparable to that of other British colonies worldwide. During the period 1852–1855, New Zealand experienced numerous conflicts over land disputes between European settlers (pakeha) and the Maori.

The Role of Students in History Learning at School: From Memorizing Facts to Historical Thinking and Meaning-Making in Life
History learning in schools still faces challenges related to low student interest and engagement due to the dominance of rote memorization approaches. This condition limits the development of students’ critical thinking skills and their ability to interpret historical values in everyday life. This article aims to examine the role of students in history learning at school, particularly in the paradigm shift from memorizing historical facts toward developing historical thinking and meaningful life interpretation. This study employs a library research approach by analyzing relevant literature on history education, learning interest, and students’ historical thinking skills. The findings indicate that active student involvement through contextual learning, historical literacy, and critical reflection can enhance learning motivation and foster historical thinking abilities. Students are not only able to understand past events but also to relate them to contemporary social realities. Therefore, history learning should be designed in a student-centered manner to become more meaningful, relevant, and contributive to character formation and national awareness in accordance with the demands of 21st-century education.
