Abstract

The implementation of the 2013 curriculum has caused restlessness for the sustainability of local language teaching because in the structure of the 2013 curriculum there is no local language subject. The local language subject is embedded with Art and Culture, Crafts, and Physical Education subjects. However, it should be seen as a challenge and opportunity for maintaining the local language teaching. In the perspective of implementing the 2013 curriculum, Sasak language teaching challenges can be found in the form of (a) local language is not explicit in the structure of the 2013 curriculum; (b) juridical legitimacy support has not been maximized; (c) there is no regional curriculum on learning Sasak language as a local content; (d) the Sasak language or literature tradition in Lombok is increasingly rare; and (e) The Sasak language teachers in Lombok are not many. Meanwhile, opportunities for teaching Sasak language in the perspective of implementing the 2013 curriculum in term of: (1) Sasak language teaching as local content has long been implemented in elementary, junior high, and even high school; (2) a lot of research results and Sasak language books have been and are being published; and (3) strengthening the character of students can be done through the teaching of local content or Sasak language.
