Abstract. This study specifically examines efforts to integrate Balinese culture and madrasah through digitalization, as well as the challenges and opportunities faced in this integration. There are issues in integrating Balinese culture and madrasahs, such as the influence of global culture that may reduce the interest of the younger generation in local traditions, as well as the digital divide that hinders the spread of information. Additionally, inaccurate information and reduced face-to-face interactions obstruct a deeper understanding of both cultures. The method used in this study is a descriptive qualitative approach with a case study design. The results of this study show that this interactive learning not only deepens students' understanding of intercultural tolerance but also connects local values with religious principles, such as helping one another in Islam. Despite facing challenges like limited digital skills and the technology access gap, digitalization also opens up opportunities for closer intercultural collaboration and wider, more effective information dissemination. Abstrak. Penelitian ini secara khusus menelaah upaya dalam mengintegrasikan budaya Bali dan madrasah melalui digitalisasi serta tantangan dan peluang yang dihadapi dalam mengintegrasikannya. Terdapat problematika dalam mengintegrasikan budaya Bali dan madrasah seperti pengaruh budaya global yang dapat mengurangi minat generasi muda terhadap tradisi lokal, serta kesenjangan akses teknologi yang menghambat penyebaran informasi. Selain itu, informasi yang tidak akurat dan berkurangnya interaksi tatap muka menghalangi pemahaman yang lebih dalam tentang kedua budaya. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini deskriptif kualitatif dengan desain studi kasus. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa pembelajaran interaktif ini tidak hanya memperdalam pemahaman siswa tentang toleransi antarbudaya, tetapi juga menghubungkan nilai-nilai lokal dengan prinsip-prinsip agama, seperti tolong-menolong dalam Islam. Meskipun menghadapi tantangan seperti keterampilan digital yang terbatas dan kesenjangan akses teknologi, digitalisasi juga membuka peluang untuk kolaborasi antarbudaya yang lebih erat serta penyebaran informasi yang lebih luas dan efektif.

This article discusses the synergy between Christianity and Batak culture, which is characterized by a reciprocal relationship that changes each other. The process of inculturation of the Christian faith in Batak society shows that religion is not only passively adopted, but is also adapted to meet the spiritual needs of the community.

This journal aims to explore the contextualization of theology in the development of the church in East Asia, focusing on the interaction between the teachings of the gospel and local traditional belief systems. The approach used in this study is a qualitative method. The findings of this study show that churches in East Asia attempt to integrate fundamental Christian teachings and adapt to local cultural needs and customs. The research found that despite efforts to create worship that is more relevant to local cultures, churches are still careful not to mix Christian teachings with traditions that could undermine the core teachings of the faith. In addition, the research also found that there is a difficulty in finding a balance between liturgical innovation and maintaining the holiness of Christian teachings. Too much adaptation to local cultural elements can lead to a loss of authentic Christian identity, while too little adaptation can make Christianity difficult to be accepted by society. To deal with this kind of conflict, churches in East Asia have endeavored to develop theologies rooted in their local traditions. In this way, churches in East Asia seek to create a deeper understanding of how the gospel can interact with the social, cultural and spiritual needs of local communities. One of the important findings of this study is also the importance of active congregational participation in the contextualization process. This congregational participation and diologetics help local churches to be more sensitive to existing social and cultural dynamics, as well as make a greater contribution in determining relevant forms of worship and teaching. This includes the avoidance of practices that could lead to syncretism, i.e. the mixing of Christian teachings with traditional elements that are contrary to the Christian faith.

This study aims to explore the ethnomathematics concepts embedded in the traditional musical instrument Gordang Sambilan from Mandailing culture and how these concepts can be integrated into mathematics education. Gordang Sambilan, which consists of nine drums of varying sizes, serves not only as a cultural symbol but also as a rich source of mathematical elements, including arithmetic sequences in drum sizes and geometric shapes such as cylinders and truncated cones. This research employs a literature study method to collect and analyze data from various relevant references. The results reveal that Gordang Sambilan offers contextual learning opportunities through geometric analysis, such as circumference, surface area, and volume of cylinders. Integrating Gordang Sambilan into mathematics learning not only helps students grasp mathematical concepts more concretely but also strengthens their appreciation of local culture. Hence, leveraging ethnomathematics from Gordang Sambilan can serve as an innovative strategy in mathematics education while preserving cultural heritage amidst globalization.
