Abstract

Preserving the Indonesian local writing culture needs to be done and one form of the writing is folk stories. Does every Indonesian recognize the diverse folk stories of regions from Sabang to Merauke? In schools, we find reading materials on legendary stories emphasizing historical sides and describing the coexistence of nature, animals, and humans which become the themes in revealing the cultural and historical richness of every region in Indonesia. Simply recognizing and storytelling the folktales are not enough as the willingness to write them down is essential to make them remain in possession and preserved as regional cultural wealth. Through the design and development method, this research developed a collaborative writing model utilizing a creative website for writing, which presented stories in the form of texts and pictures publication. The research involved 10 teachers and 10 students who have important roles in producing 20 folk stories. The story writers were assisted by 10 librarians to strengthen the accuracy and clarity of the stories for further publication. The story illustrators helped the writers in completing the stories with illustrative pictures to clarify the meaning and give art nuances in the story. The stories were published digitally for the sake of cultivating writing, reading and sharing stories in technological packaging.
