Synergy of Sekura Local Wisdom in History Learning at Universitas Lampung

Abstract

This study aims to examine the role of the Sekura tradition as a form of local wisdom of the Lampung community in supporting history learning in higher education, particularly at Universitas Lampung. Sekura, which is a cultural tradition with social, moral, and historical values, is seen as having potential as a contextual learning resource and is relevant to a local wisdom-based learning approach. The research method uses a qualitative approach, with data collected through literature reviews, interviews with lecturers and students, and observations of Sekura cultural practices. The results show that integrating Sekura into history learning can improve students' understanding of local cultural dynamics, strengthen regional identity, and foster an appreciative attitude towards the plurality of Indonesian cultures. In addition, applying this local wisdom supports the achievement of learning outcomes that emphasize critical, reflective, and contextual thinking skills. Thus, the synergy between Sekura and history learning not only preserves Lampung's cultural heritage but also enriches pedagogical strategies in university-level history education.
