Pelatihan Penulisan Cerita Sejarah Lokal Sebagai Upaya Menumbuhkan Literasi dan Nasionalisme di Kalangan Pelajar

Abstract

A community service team from the Study Programs of Indonesian Language Education and History Education organized a training program on writing local historical stories, aimed at fostering literacy and nationalism among students. The training was conducted offline using the Training Service model and involved 30 participants from SMK Ma’arif 1 Semaka, Tanggamus Regency. The training activities were carried out in four stages: (1) preparation, (2) implementation of local history story writing training, (3) evaluation of training outcomes, and (4) follow-up planning conducted online. Participants were divided into groups based on historical periods covered, such as the prehistoric era, Hindu-Buddhist period, and Islamic period. Each group was trained to explore, compile, and narrate historical events or local figures in the form of engaging and communicative short stories. The results of the training showed that students improved their skills in writing local historical stories and developed a greater interest in regional historical heritage as a means of strengthening identity and national spirit.
