The Potential for Integrating Educational Values of Local Literature from Hulu Sungai Selatan into AI-Based Innovative Learning

Abstract

Local literature possesses educational values that are essential for character education among the younger generation, especially within the context of Indonesian culture. This study aims to examine the potential integration of educational values from the local literature of Hulu Sungai Selatan, specifically the legends of Batu Laki and Batu Bini, as well as Hampang Datuo, into AI- based learning. Values such as filial piety, mutual cooperation, and social solidarity are identified as important components that can be strengthened through interactive and personalized AI technology applications. Several AI technologies applied in this research include Natural Language Processing (NLP) to create chatbots representing characters in the legends, Machine Learning (ML) for adaptive
learning systems, Computer Vision for cultural artifact visualization, and Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS) to provide personalized guidance. The study results show that AI can enhance student engagement and comprehension of moral values in local literature by providing a more engaging, adaptive, and relevant learning experience. The implications of this study include opportunities for local cultural preservation through modern learning relevant to the digital generation, as well as improving the effectiveness of character education based on local wisdom.
