Embedded Local Wisdom to Education: The Pappaseng Local Wisdom to Improve Students’ Leadership Attitude

Abstract

Local wisdom comes from cultural values that are used to regulate people's lives. Indonesia has a lot of local wisdom that can be embedded in the learning process. One of the local wisdom from Makassar region of South Sulawesi province is Pappaseng the classical Bugis literature. The contents of pappaseng in the form of a Bugis Makassar language manuscript include providing guidance to the community to become human beings with good character in the dimensions of heart, mind, body, feeling, and intention, both as leaders and members of the community. The purpose of this study was to investigate the leadership values contained in pappaseng and the possibility of embedding these values in historical learning to improve student leadership attitudes. The qualitative approach and hermeneutic methods were used in this study. Data collection used literature research on Lontaraq Pappaseng text and documentation studies. The results of the study showed that there were leadership values contained in pappaseng, namely ingenuity, honesty, bravery, expediency, and good leadership. The leadership values contained in the pappaseng, if embedded in historical learning are thought to improve student leadership attitudes. The implication of this finding was that further research is needed to prove this allegation.
