Abstract

This research explores the integration of Indonesia's maritime history and culture into Social Studies education. Indonesia, as the world's largest archipelagic nation, possesses a rich maritime heritage and diverse culture that significantly shape national identity and promote sustainable economic development. The study delves into Indonesia's historical maritime background, including its pivotal role in global trade routes and cultural development. It encompasses maritime kingdoms like Srivijaya, Majapahit, and Makassar as well as the influences of China, India, and the Arab world on maritime culture and trade. The article highlights Indonesia's maritime cultural traditions, fostering appreciation for cultural diversity, environmental sustainability, and responsible attitudes towards marine resources. Various methods, including field research, multimedia resources, and interdisciplinary collaborations, can be employed to implement Indonesia's maritime history and culture into IPS education. This integration enables students to develop a holistic understanding of society, economy, and marine environments. By incorporating Indonesia's maritime heritage, students gain an understanding of marine conservation and sustainable economies, while embracing local wisdom applicable to their daily lives. Ultimately, this implementation fosters a generation that values marine environments, respects cultural diversity, and contributes to sustainable development, providing a solid foundation for understanding history, culture, and the significance of maritime affairs in Indonesia.
