The rapid advancement of digital technology has significantly influenced students’ learning behavior while gradually reducing their interest in local cultural education, including the study of the Javanese script. This phenomenon is evident at SDIP Haji Muhammad Subandi, where most students still struggle to recognize, read, and understand Javanese characters due to the limited use of engaging and interactive learning media. To address this issue, a 2D educational game was developed as an innovative, contextual, and enjoyable learning medium that integrates cultural elements into an interactive digital learning experience. The design and development process employed the Multimedia Development Life Cycle (MDLC) method, which consists of six stages: concept, design, material collecting, assembly, testing, and distribution. The game was built using Unity software to produce dynamic visuals, responsive controls, and supporting audio elements that enhance the immersive quality of gameplay. The educational game enables students to learn Javanese script through interactive play activities, including letter recognition, pronunciation practice, and quiz-based challenges. Each component was designed to strengthen cognitive understanding while increasing students’ intrinsic motivation to learn. Expert validation results indicated that the game met the “highly feasible” criteria as a learning medium, while user testing showed notable improvements in motivation, engagement, and learning enjoyment. Overall, this educational game not only enhances learning effectiveness but also contributes to the preservation and revitalization of the Javanese script as part of Indonesia’s cultural heritage in the digital era. Therefore, this game-based learning approach serves as an adaptive and culturally grounded educational innovation for primary-level students

The 2025 Thematic Community Service Program (KKN-T) for the R3 group of Janabadra University Yogyakarta was held in Tangisan Hamlet, Banyurejo Village, Tempel Subdistrict, Sleman Regency. Tangisan Hamlet has various local potentials that can be developed, such as a productive agricultural sector, active social institutions, and a rich cultural heritage. However, this area also faces several challenges that need to be addressed, including low legal literacy among the community, a high potential for juvenile delinquency, and limited public information support facilities in the hamlet. In implementing the KKN-T program, a participatory approach was applied by involving the local community from the planning stage to the evaluation. The process began with field observations to understand the actual conditions in the community, then continued with the formulation of a work program developed in collaboration with community leaders and village officials. The programs implemented included the installation of information signs in Javanese script at strategic points as part of supporting the "Culturally Independent Village" program. In addition, socialization was conducted regarding laws related to online loans and juvenile delinquency, which aimed to increase public understanding of legal issues. At Banyurejo 4 Public Elementary School, anti-bullying education is being conducted to raise students' awareness of the importance of mutual respect. Furthermore, at the Integrated Service Post (Posyandu) for toddlers, nutritious supplementary food using local foods is provided to support children's health in the area. All implemented programs are based on the actual needs of the community, identified through discussions and deliberations with community leaders. Through this Community Service Program (KKN-T) activity, it is hoped that a strong synergy will be established between students, the community, and the village government in promoting sustainable and independent village development. This program is expected to provide direct benefits to the community and pave the way for better village development in the future.

This study aims to improve the learning motivation of fourth-grade students of SDN 3 Jambu in Javanese language subjects, especially in Javanese script material, through the implementation of the Teams Games Tournament (TGT) learning model combined with the use of flash cards. The background of this study is the low learning motivation of students as seen from the lack of active participation, low enthusiasm during learning, and lack of interest in the Javanese script material. These conditions have an impact on the achievement of unsatisfactory learning outcomes and an unpleasant learning atmosphere. This type of research is Classroom Action Research (CAR) which is conducted in two cycles. Each cycle consists of four stages, namely planning, implementation of actions, observation, and reflection. The subjects of the study were 20 fourth-grade students. Data collection techniques were carried out using observations of student activities, interviews with teachers and students, documentation of learning activities, and evaluation tests to measure learning outcomes at the end of each cycle. Data analysis was carried out descriptively qualitatively and quantitatively. The results of the study showed a significant increase in student learning motivation after the implementation of the TGT learning model assisted by flash cards. This can be seen from the increasing activeness of students in groups, their enthusiasm in participating in educational games, and the results of learning evaluations that show a positive trend from cycle I to cycle II. The TGT model, which is based on cooperation and healthy competition, creates a more lively and enjoyable learning atmosphere and stimulates active student involvement. Thus, it can be concluded that the implementation of the Teams Games Tournament learning model supported by flashcard media is effective in increasing student motivation and learning outcomes in the Javanese Language subject, Javanese Script material.

The learning of Javanese script at SDN Denanyar 1 faces significant challenges, particularly in mastering sandhangan swara. Students struggle to understand the material due to the complexity of Javanese script and the use of traditional teaching methods that are less engaging. Therefore, innovation in teaching methods is needed by implementing a flipped classroom model that utilizes instructional videos. The aim of this study is to examine the implementation of the video-based flipped classroom model and assess its effectiveness in improving the ability to write sandhangan swara in Javanese script among fourth-grade students at SDN Denanyar 1. This research uses a mixed-method approach with a one-group pretest-posttest pre-experimental design. The research stages include observation, interviews, pretest, implementation of the flipped classroom model, and posttest. The study sample consists of 30 fourth-grade students. The results indicate a significant improvement in student learning outcomes, with an average pretest score of 54% and a posttest score of 75%. Additionally, students became more motivated and proactive during the learning process, while teachers successfully created a more innovative learning environment.
