No. 1, 2024 INTRODUCTION Preserving culture, especially traditional arts, should be our collective responsibility as people who love the arts and culture of the archipelago that we love. It is an increasingly difficult challenge to preserve traditional arts due to the rapid globalization and the times that continue to develop and change. These developments impact changing patterns of thinking and human life activities in society and can also influence the culture of the community. The influx of foreign cultural influences has pushed the regional culture inherited from our ancestors, which sooner or later will be forgotten by society. As part of regional culture spread throughout the archipelago, traditional dance is now increasingly being marginalized, even replaced by contemporary Millennials are now more open to current progress due to social changes. The existence of modernization and globalization, as well as openness to foreign cultures, has unconsciously changed local culture, especially in terms of traditional dance arts. North Sumatra is a part of a province in Indonesia consisting of various heterogeneous tribes, including Malay. Toba Batak. Karo Batak. Simalungun. Pakpak Dairi. Mandailing. Pesisir Sibolga, and Nias. This diversity makes North Sumatra rich in arts and culture with unique It is a wealth to be proud of, considering the various types of traditional dance arts that color the lives of its people. Traditional dance arts can survive if they are cared for by the strength of the supporting community. One way is through arts and culture resilience. The ability to adapt and survive in difficult situations is known as resilience or resilience. More broadly, understanding the difficult situation in this case is understanding the strength of maintaining the existence of traditional dance amidst the rapid influence of the times. This means art can survive, be sustainable, and develop resiliently in the modern Resilience is a continuous development and process that shows positive adaptation regardless of the difficulties and events that must be faced (Luthar et al. , 2000. Master 2001 in Luthar, 2. Resilience is seen as a phenomenon in this case, so it can be said that someone can survive in their life even though they face challenges that must be faced and overcome. Thus, resilience can also be referred to as a characteristic of resilience or a survival The Simalungun people of North Sumatra have traditional dance works that they fear will be swept away by the current of the times. Older artists hope this traditional art can be preserved, survived, and passed on to the younger generation as a form of maintaining and preserving regional culture. address this, an act of resilience is needed to maintain traditional art so that its survival and continued existence are recognized in society. In connection with the issue of resilience, several studies on maintaining traditional works of art have been carried out through various kinds of research that previous researchers have carried out. The article "Dance Resilience in Various Cultures" by Julianti Parani . in the Cikini National Arts The article "Resilience of Dance Studio Artists Against the Impact of the Covid-19 Pandemic in Gowa Regency. South Sulawesi Province" by Abdul and Fatimah . in the Education and Teaching Review Journal. The discussion in this study is to describe one of the dances or tortors in the Simalungun area, namely Tortor Sirittak Hotang. Simalungun is an agricultural area. most people earn a living by farming or cultivating crops such as rice fields, corn, cassava, and other vegetables. Apart from that, the people of Simalungun work on oil palm plantations, tea plantations, rubber plantations, and rattan Tortor Sirittak Hotang was created in the Initially, the Simalungun Regency Tourism and Culture Office appealed to the people of Simalungun to create a dance from local natural resources, which would then be competed at the Rondang Bintang Festival. Tortor Sirittak Hotang, a dance work depicting the activity of picking up rattan, was performed at the Rondang Bintang Party to add to the excitement of the event, as well as a form of creativity for Simalungun artists in supporting regional tourism With the creation of the Sirittak Hotang Tortor, it was not immediately known to all Simalungun people. It also could not attract the younger generation's interest in learning this dance. In this regard, the idea emerged to create a form of resilience in this study by developing Simalungun dance learning media, especially Tortor Sirittak Hotang. According to Rusman . 4: . , learning is a process of interaction between teachers and students, directly, such as face-to-face activities, and indirectly through various learning media. Learning media can help the teaching and learning process and clarify the message's meaning so that students Sitti Rahmah (The Resilience A) MUDRA Jurnal Seni Budaya Volume 39. No. 1, 2024 can achieve learning goals better and more effectively (Kustandi & Sutjipto, 2. Learning media must be able to attract and guide students to understand the learning content. Media is often associated with and assessed as learning technology (Musfiqon, 2012, p. Currently, digital media-based learning technology is developing rapidly, which provides convenience, freedom, and flexibility for learning online. Several studies that have developed learning by using digital media, such as the results of research by Rustiyanti et al. in Mudra Journal of Arts and Culture, 36. , 186Ae196, have succeeded in creating a breakthrough alternative for preserving and reconstructing traditional arts by utilizing technology in this era. Industry 4. 0 as an Ecranization Effort for the Advancement of Culture. Making dance learning media functions as a tool to help lecturers carry out learning and can function more broadly as a resilience to maintain traditional dance arts through formal education. Besides maintaining traditional arts, learning dance as a medium has many benefits. In the writings of I Gusti Lanang . in Mudra Journal of Arts and Culture Vol 31 No 2, that to improve the quality of the learning system, the activities are directed at centering students on increasing students' creativity, independence, cooperation, solidarity, leadership, empathy, tolerance, and life skills. To shape character or character and improve civilization. The teaching material raises a lot of local content or wisdom so that the characters formed can become conservationists, creators, and developers of art and To strengthen students' character, they often study and practice cultural artworks. be accounted for. Borg and Gall . state that "educational research and development (R&D) is a process used to develop and validate educational products," meaning that research development is a process used to develop and validate educational Products can be objects, hardware, or This research produces a product of Simalungun regional dance teaching materials packaged in the Sirittak Hotang Simalungun dance/Tortor learning media in digital form using the Canva application. The development model in this research follows the path of Sivasailam Thiagarajan. Dorothy S. Semmel, and Melvyn I. Semmel . The main stages of the 4-D development model are Define. Design. Develop, and Disseminate or adapt into a 4-P model, namely definition, design, development, and The application of the main steps in research is not only based on the original version. However, it is adjusted to the subject's characteristics and the examinee's place of origin. Qualitative descriptive analysis of this problem and research, as well as product design analysis, was carried out to analyze this research data, with stages: The definition stage or needs analysis stage is carried out by observing lecturers and students in the Simalungun Dance Techniques course, analyzing the concept of the developed material, and then designing learning media. Design stage: This stage compiles teaching materials packaged in digital media, from making flowcharts and storyboards to collecting materials/materials. RESEARCH METHODOLOGY The development stage starts from developing media designs by selecting images, recording videos . election according to the layout and design of the materia. , and developing display content and materials on learning media that utilizes the Canva application, which is arranged systematically and adapted to learning outcomes. Furthermore, at this stage, a feasibility test instrument that has been validated is also prepared. Validated instruments are used to validate products by validating them on media validators and material validators. The feasibility test results from the validator are then revised and improved. The next stage is user testing/validation. This type of research uses a research and development model, popularly known as Research and Development (R&D). Research and development is a process or set of steps to develop a new product or improve an existing product that can Dissemination stage: This stage is the promotion of product results that have been developed so that individual, group, or system users of the product accept them. User analysis, strategy and themes, distribution timing, and distribution media selection As stated above, the creation of this dance learning media not only helps lecturers in carrying out learning in Simalungun Dance Techniques lectures at the Unimed FBS Dance Education Study Program but at least through this dance learning media. Tortor Sirittak Hotang can be studied more widely among the younger generation, outside the Simalungun area, and especially among Simalungun students. Dance learning media that uses digital technology is another way to document Simalungun traditional dance arts. Sitti Rahmah (The Resilience A) MUDRA Jurnal Seni Budaya Volume 39.

The following activity implementation flow shows the problem-solving structure created: Figure 1. Research Flowchart In this research, descriptive statistics is used as a data analysis technique. This type of statistic analyzes data by describing or illustrating the data collected without producing general conclusions (Sugiyono, 2015, p. A Likert scale is used to measure interpreted quantitative data and measure product suitability. The quantitative numbers from this measurement are converted based on the assigned weights, namely 1, 2, 3, and 4. This quantitative data is then analyzed using descriptive Table 1. Likert Scale for Instruments No. Category Very Good Good Enough Not Enough Score RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Resilience through the revitalization process of the Sirittak Hotang Simalungun Tortor is carried out through excavation, reconstruction, reinterpretation, and actualization. The excavation stage involved identifying the Sirittak Hotang Tortor through searches by looking for informants as sources who knew about this Tortor. The definition stage or analysis stage was carried out, starting with a needs analysis and an initial literature study to obtain data related to the needs of the Simalungun Dance digital media product, namely Tortor Sirittak Hotang. This data was obtained directly from a source from a Simalungun regional dance artist named Mr. Fredy Purba, who stated that Tortor Sirittak Hotang was created in 1991 by the late Op. Sahat Damanik. The results of interviews, workshops, taking pictures, and recording videos related to the dances mentioned above are then compiled in report notes to be processed into dance learning materials. Next, the design stage for making Simalungun dance material begins with making a flowchart, a storyboard, and collecting materials. A flowchart is a flow diagram composed of charts in various shapes as a workflow or process of action stages in design. The form of a flowchart for making digital media products for Simalungun dance in this research can be seen in Figure 2 below: The presentation technique uses the ideal mean value (M. , ideal standard deviation (Sb. , sum . he average number of scores obtaine. , and the highest score, and the lowest score.
