The Important Meaning of the Archives of the Indonesian Sugar Plantation Research Center for the Period 1893-1982 in the Collective Memory of the Nation and UNESCO
Background: The archives of the Indonesian Sugar Research Center (P3GI), spanning 1893 to 1982, represent more than technical records; they are a vital repository of the nation’s colonial and postcolonial industrial identity. Within the framework of Jan Assmann’s Cultural Memory, these archives serve as a cornerstone for shaping Indonesia’s collective historical consciousness.
Purpose: This study argues for the recognition of the P3GI archives as significant national documentary heritage. It examines their historical, symbolic, and institutional value in recording the complex interplay between science, technology, power, and the socio-economic dynamics of the Indonesian sugar industry.
Methods: Utilizing a qualitative exploratory approach, the researchers conducted semi-structured interviews with six key informants, supplemented by an extensive review of P3GI documents and archival policies. Data were analyzed using content analysis mapped against Assmann’s five dimensions of cultural memory: content, form, media, time structure, and participation structure.
Findings: The results show that the P3GI archives meet all of the requirements for cultural memory. Beyond being mere data sources, they function as an infrastructure for collective memory, documenting the evolution of the sugar industry through various political eras. Furthermore, the digitization of these records and their registration as Memoria Mundi Bangsa (MKB) highlights the role of multi-actor collaboration in legitimizing and transmitting memory across generations.
Originality/Value: These findings reinforce the strategic position of the P3GI archives as a national documentary heritage and support the development of archive preservation policies based on cultural and historical values
PEMANFAATAN APLIKASI MIND MAP SEBAGAI MEDIA INOVATIF DALAM PEMBELAJARAN MATA KULIAH PENGEMBANGAN PENDIDIKAN KEWARGANEGARAAN SEKOLAH DASAR
This study was conducted to develop an innovative medium in learning Elementary School-Civic Education (PKn SD) Development course in order to improve the lecturer competency in developing good learning media, improving learning quality, and producing a computer and internet-based media product. The development of innovative media in this study was carried out by utilizing mind map application available in internet. This study was taken place in Elementary School Teacher Education, Pedagogic Faculty, Semarang State University. The subject of research consisted of corresponding students and lecturers. This study was an educational research with research and development approach. The procedure of research included preliminary study with descriptive qualitative approach, media development design, design validation and design improvement, and followed with limited trial on media design by applying experimental method (before-after), and product revision, if any, and final product development. The result achieved in this study was that the author had conducted a preliminary study by mapping competency and indicator into PKn SD Development course and then designed the lecturing learning plan as needed by utilizing the mind map application as learning media. The author had designed an innovative media using mind map application and had the media design validated by the competent validators in their area. The mind map application-based learning media had been tried out in treatment class. The result of test with the data processed by the author showed the following result. 1) The result of pretest and posttest showed significant improvement; it could be seen from the number of correct answer minimally 5 (40%) and maximally 13 (63%) in pre-test result and minimally 16 (80%) and maximally 20 (100%) in posttest result. 2) The result of content quality and objective aspect questionnaire before and after using mind map application showed the ratio of 55%: 89%, with instructional quality aspect of 54% : 88%, and technical quality aspect of 51% : 90%, so that the overall ratio was 54% : 89%. Considering the result of data analysis, it could be found that the mind map application use can be developed further as an innovative learning media utilizing computer technology and informatics technology mastery support. The author organized the result of study into a scientific article to be published and organized a final report as accountability.
INOVASI MODEL PEMBELAJARAN MELALUI PENGEMBANGAN STRATEGI REFLECTION THINKING, REINFORCEMENT & HABITUATION (R2H) BERBASIS NILAI-NILAI KONSERVASI DALAM MATA KULIAH PENGEMBANGAN PKn SEKOLAH DASAR
This research aimed to produce the learning model innovation by developing R2H learning strategies based on conservation values in the Civic Education Development for Elementary School course. The research method employed was education research with development approach (R&D).This research was taken place in Elementary School Teacher Education Department of Education Faculty, Semarang State University. The subject of research consisted of students and corresponding lecturers.The result of research obtained by the author was the preliminary study by mapping competency and indicator in the Elementary School Civic Education Development Course, and then designing a product in the form of course learning plan according to the research purpose through reflection thinking, reinforcement & habituation (r2h) based on conservation values that in turn could be used or trialed with the treatment class. Before the trial, the design of learning model product was consulted with the expert validator. Validator gave input related the equilibrium in developing the strategy used and confirmed that the model designed could be trialed, and then the author trialed it with the treatment class using one group pretest posttest design. The result of pretest and posttest showed that there was an increased in the learning achievement from 45.88% to 88.95%, when calculated using N-Gain formula, the score of 0.79 was obtained meaning that the increase belonged to high category, while the questionnaire of model innovation effectiveness showed that there was an increase in learning effectiveness before and after using the learning model innovation from 53.29% to 89.31%. Considering the result of research, it could be concluded that the learning model innovation was effective to be developed in the Civic Education Development for Elementary School course learning
