The Ministry of Education and Culture supports the vision and goals of education in the new paradigm by creating the Pancasila Learner Profile to realize Indonesian students as lifelong learners who have global *Correspondence author. Contact. : swidiantho@gmail. Widiantho. Soesanto. Lestari. Nor competence and behave according to the values of Pancasila . The new paradigm curriculum is the curriculum used today that emphasizes the Pancasila Profile as a longterm outcome. There are six characteristics of the Pancasila Learner Profile, namely: . Faithful, devoted to God Almighty and Noble. Coping with global diversity. Mutually . Independent. Critical in reasoning. Creative. Given the importance of forming the profile of Pancasila Students, the school as an institution has the duty and function to realise it. One of them is through Banjar songs as a reflection of their culture. Although character education in Indonesia has been extensively studied, the potential role of regional music, particularly Banjar songs, in fostering Pancasila values remains largely unexplored. This research proposes that Banjar songs, with their strong cultural ties, offer a unique pedagogical tool for developing the Pancasila Student Profile in Indonesian schools. Banjar songs, rich in local wisdom, offer a valuable opportunity to instill Pancasila values such as gotong royong, critical thinking, and global This research examines how these songs function as cultural artefacts and as educational tools that promote character development aligned with the Pancasila Learner Profile. The intrinsic values of a musical work . on a particular scale can be a reflection that represents a picture of socio-cultural conditions related to other areas of life, including the cultural resilience of a nation, which significantly influences human life. These values are relevant to the elements of the Pancasila Student Profile. The message and meaning the creator wants to convey through a series of words in the Banjar song text can be immediately interpreted or explicitly described. However, some listeners might take some time to capture the message or meaning that the creator wants to convey through the text implicitly. The language style aimed at writers or creators should emphasize creativity, and these literary works should also contain helpful advice for social life . The habitus of Banjar songs' popularity as a social system also needs to be seen in its building structure. The habitus system is a dialectical synthesis between objective structures and subjective phenomena . Thus, the interaction between objective structures and subjective phenomena towards the popularity of Banjar songs can be assumed as its habitus . In line with Dewantara's view, this research explores how Banjar songs serve as an essential cultural tool in shaping both individual students and society, fostering values aligned with the Pancasila Student Profile . "education as a civilizing process is not only oriented to develop a good person but also a good society". As a civilizing process, education needs to be double-oriented, building learners who can understand themselves and their This orientation must be balanced, where education helps individuals to recognize their potential, and provides opportunities for each individual to place his or her advantages in the surrounding environment. Thus, education for civilization requires developing thinking, feeling, working, and physical power . Learning is not only when there is a daily test, semester test, or end of school test. second of the hour students spend is also included in their learning. Students can learn new things they encounter while at school, studying with the class teacher, and studying with their peers. Every student possesses a highly inquisitive spirit . One of the studies on character values in Banjar songs was conducted by Erni Rohliyani, and the title was Character Values in Banjar Song Texts, analyzing data from 10 Banjar song texts. The results of this study found that the character values contained in Banjar song texts could be identified into 18 character values, namely: religious, honest, tolerant, disciplined, hardworking, creative, independent, democratic, curious, carrying national spirit or nationalism, love for the country, respect for achievement, communicative, peace-loving, fond of reading, environmental caring, social caring, and aware of responsibility . Another study. Structure and Function of Banjar Songs by H. Anang Ardiansyah, formulated Harmony of Culture and Education . four functions of Banjar songs: educating or advising, entertaining, criticizing, and expressing feelings . The subsequent research entitled Aesthetics of Popular Banjar Songs: A Representation of Cultural. Existence Experience, and Social Values of Banjar Society stated three findings. First, the metaphysical value or substance of popular Banjar songs is located in two ontological realities: musical expression or the sounding of song forms and song lyrics in the Banjar language as a representation of Banjar culture. Secondly, the knowledge and truth values of art . esthetic epistemolog. of popular Banjar songs tend to be based on the philosophical framework of empiricism, that is, knowledge and truth of art that prioritizes the existential experience of the subject in the cultural life of Banjar Third, the prominent social value of popular Banjar songs is the discourse on work ethic based on religiosity, while the prominent political value . ocial institution. is family From these two main social value contents, the aesthetics of popular Banjar songs offer social values . Despite extensive discussions on the importance of character education in Indonesia, little has been done to explore how regional music traditions, such as Banjar songs, can be leveraged to instill Pancasila values in students. This study addresses that gap by analyzing how the values embedded in Banjar songs can contribute to Pancasila character building. The purpose of this research is to find out which Banjar songs are relevant to the elements of the Pancasila Student Profile by analyzing the needs of Banjar Songs to obtain data and information about: . character values in Banjar Songs that are relevant to the Pancasila Student Profile.

These selection criteria aim for the six songs to represent Banjar musical traditions comprehensively. reduce potential bias in lyric interpretation, the researcher applied data triangulation through discussions with cultural experts, member checking with informants, and an audit trail of the analysis process. The researcher also explicitly recognises the possibility of subjectivity in interpreting song meanings and attempts to maintain objectivity through the involvement of various parties in the analysis process. Data analysis was conducted using a thematic and semiotic-based content analysis The units of analysis used were stanzas and lines of song lyrics. The analysis procedure included identifying central themes and symbols, manual open and axial coding, and categorizing character values in the lyrics. In the data codification stage, the researcher rewrote the field notes that had been made, including analysing the semiotics of the six Banjar songs to be studied. While analysing and understanding the meaning of the Banjar songs, the researcher conducted recorded interviews with Banjar songwriters and cultural The interview recordings were then transcribed manually. All field notes or transcriptions were reviewed after the field notes were neatly rewritten and after the recordings were transcribed. After that, important and unimportant information was selected by marking it. Then, the researcher interpreted what was conveyed in the fragments to find out what the informants or documents conveyed in the fragments. Widiantho. Soesanto. Lestari.

The analysis will demonstrate how these songs embody values such as faith, cooperation, and independence, which are key to forming a Pancasila student. The six songs have meanings and values that are relevant to the character of the Pancasila Student Profile.

Figure 1 presents a concept map linking the character values found in Banjar songs with the six main dimensions of the Pancasila Learner Profile. This visualisation shows Banjar songs have significant potential to foster character development, particularly in collaboration, independence, global diversity, critical thinking, and creativity. The map underlines the importance of integrating culture-based education into the curriculum, showing that specific cultural forms such as Banjar songs can make a unique and meaningful contribution to strengthening the values of Pancasila in schools . While these findings are conceptual and exploratory, they pave the way for further research to empirically assess the impact of incorporating Banjar songs on students' attitudes and behaviour. CONCLUSION This research confirms that Banjar songs act as cultural heritage and have significant potential in shaping students' character according to the Pancasila Student Profile. The findings strengthen the literature highlighting the importance of culture-based education in character building and strengthening Pancasila values in schools. By linking values such as gotong royong, independence, global diversity, and critical and creative reasoning to Banjar songs, this research expands the understanding of how local cultural expressions can be effective in character education. It also challenges the literature that tends to place character education within a more general framework by showing that specific cultural forms, such as Banjar songs, can make unique and relevant contributions. Harmony of Culture and Education . However, this study has some limitations that need to be recognised. The sample of songs analysed is limited to six popular songs, so generalisation of the findings to all Banjar songs or other cultures in Indonesia needs to be done with caution. In addition, this study has not empirically tested the direct impact of Banjar song integration on students' behaviour or attitudes, so the results are more conceptual and exploratory. This limitation opens up opportunities for further research that can use longitudinal or experimental designs to measure the influence of Banjar songs on students' character development over time. Banjar songs can be integrated into learning music, civic education, and character education at school for practical implementation. Teachers can utilise these songs in intra-curricular and extra-curricular activities, such as art performances, discussion of values in the lyrics, or creative projects based on folk songs. In the context of school diversity in Indonesia, the integration of Banjar songs needs to be done inclusively by comparing and appreciating traditional songs from different regions so that all students feel represented. Future research could explore specific questions, such as how Banjar songs influence students' attitudes and behaviour, or compare the effectiveness of Banjar songs with other traditional songs in shaping character. A longitudinal study could also be conducted to see the longterm impact of local song integration on student character building. REFERENCES
