Abstract

Globalization is an unstoppable current that has positive and negative impacts. The positive impacts such as cooperation, easy access to information, while the negative impacts refer more to the nature or actions such as the many moral crimes committed by adolescents. It is also due to the lack of optimal education in transferring moral values. One of the subjects that play a role in the formation of good citizens and values is social studies education, but the social studies curriculum still emphasizes mastery of the material, social studies subjects are too material, cognitive and rote. Because it is memorized, social studies learning becomes tedious, unattractive and seen as a burden for students, especially if it is associated with its status as a subject not included in the national exam. The community also considers that social studies lessons are not important, so the values in social studies learning are not well conveyed.
