Investigations on kidungan, a form of traditional Javanese poetry, have been gaining momentum. However, there is a lack of comprehensive reports exploring the value of Javanese cultural wisdom in relation to social dimensions, symbolic politics, and educational values as reflected in kidungan. This study aims to address this gap by delving into the social dimension, symbolic politics, and educational value embedded in traditional Javanese poetry, specifically in kidungan ludruk. The research data for this study is sourced from ludruk performances broadcasted by Radi Republik Indonesia (RRI) East Java and expert interviews. The data collected were then analyzed using qualitative descriptive techniques, employing an ethnolinguistic research approach. The findings of this study revealed that ludruk kidungan serves as a social representation of traditional society, encompassing various aspects of social dimensions, symbolic politics, and educational values. An important implication of this study is that kidungan has the potential to contribute to the development of sustainable knowledge, particularly in the fields of culture, politics, and education.

This case study investigates the complicated dynamics of curriculum development in Aceh, Indonesia's culturally varied and spiritually significant higher education institutions. This study explores the Aceh higher education curriculum's structural components and pedagogical methods, focusing on Islamic cultural sensitivity and preservation. The study's iterative process comprised semi-structured student and faculty interviews, expert consultations, and stakeholder feedback. This study examines the complex process of creating a localized educational framework that boosts academic achievement, taking culture and religiosity into account. The research underlines the necessity of community involvement and local actors like religious leaders in shaping curriculum content to provide cultural meaning and real-world relevance. The findings shed light on Aceh's unique challenges and opportunities and apply to similar cultural and religious contexts. This study adds to the academic discussion about higher education curriculum development. In particular, it emphasizes the importance of cultural and religious awareness to create an engaging and culturally relevant educational environment.
