INTRODUCTION Indonesian language education plays an important role in shaping the competence of learners as prospective educators and academics in the future, especially in terms of critical thinking skills, community skills, and reflective attitudes. Research shows the influence of the use of educational technology on improving the ability of students to interact critically with language and do independent reflection (Kerruish, 2. At the higher education level, courses such as Indonesian Language https://jurnaledukasia. EDUKASIA: Jurnal Pendidikan dan Pembelajaran. Vol. 7, 1 (January-June, 2. 100 of 110 Learning Evaluation play a crucial role in equipping students with the competencies to objectively and contextually assess learning processes and outcomes, in line with findings that learning evaluation processes that emphasize formative dimensions and self-reflection have been shown to improve students' understanding of the complexity of assessment processes in teaching (Aguayo-Hernyndez et , 2024. Parmigiani et al. , 2. In this context, evaluation not only focusses on activities to measure learning outcomes, but also understands the extent to which the learning objectives are achieved and how the results can be used to improve the teaching process. Meta-analysis supports perspectives that show a combination of formative assessment with appropriate feedback to increase students' motivation and self-regulation (Ismail et al. , 2022. Morris et al. , 2. In the context of Indonesian language learning, students are required not only to understand the basic principles of evaluation such as validity, reliability, and fairness but also to be able to develop assessment instruments appropriate to student characteristics and the local context, as well as interpret learning outcome data for appropriate learning decision-making. Research by Gymez et al. found that socio-cultural contextual factors and reflection processes have been shown to have a positive and significant influence on the development of critical thinking skills in higher education. Thus, the integration of process-oriented learning evaluation and open reflection is an important foundation in developing educators who are responsive to change and able to apply assessment contextually and However, the reality at various universities, including Victory University Sorong (UNVIC), shows that the learning process in this course remains conventional and theoretical. The teaching materials used are generally sourced from national literature that does not adequately reflect the social and cultural realities of Papuan society. Students struggle to relate evaluation theory to the educational context in their own region, which has its own unique socio-linguistic and cultural characteristicsAi resulting in a gap between the learning content and students' daily learning experiences. Research shows that when learning materials are not relevant to students' local contexts, knowledge transfer decreases, learning interest weakens, and students' ability to think reflectively about educational problems they face in the field is limited (Deng & Wang, 2023. Hutchison & McAlister-Shields, 2020. Ramli et al. , 2. Furthermore, learning approaches that ignore cultural aspects and local contexts tend to reinforce constraints on students' cultural representation and weaken their active engagement in the learning process (Aaseby & Willbergh, 2022. Steele et al. , 2. Therefore, it is necessary to develop teaching materials and learning media that explicitly integrate local cultural values and students' socio-cultural realities so that learning becomes more meaningful, contextual, and reflective. Learning challenges in West Papua stem not only from limited media and learning resources, but also from socio-cultural complexities ranging from linguistic diversity, customs, and value systems within local communities. When curricula and learning practices fail to accommodate local wisdom . raditions, proverbs, folklore, and social norm. , learning experiences often feel foreign and less meaningful to students. Conversely, learning that positions local knowledge as a pedagogical asset has been shown to increase student relevance, participation, and ownership of learning. Cross-contextual findings demonstrate the urgency of culturally responsive/sustaining pedagogy and culturally sensitive assessment for Indigenous communities . MAor. , as these strategies strengthen engagement, assessment equity, and learning outcomes in higher education. In Indonesia's multilingual landscape, including the eastern region, the challenges of implementing multilingual education and revitalizing indigenous languages emphasize that instructional design needs to be rooted in local contexts to be effective. In line with this. Victory University Sorong students as prospective educators need to gain learning experiences that link theory with practice and local cultural identity in order to grow sensitivity to the character of students and the educational ecology in which they serve (Cooper, 2025. Eitel et al. , 2024. Kerr & Averill, 2024. Ramli et al. , 2. The results of initial observations and interviews with UNVIC students show that the presentation of the material is only theoretical without giving contextual direct examples, so that the Indonesian Language Learning Evaluation course is often considered difficult by students. This leads students to Irwan Soulisa. Dinda Irdayani Soulisa.

Vol. 7, 1 (January-June, 2. 101 of 110 focus more on memorising concepts such as validity, reliability, and types of assessments without understanding their application in real-world situations in Papuan schools. In addition. Education in the Papuan region is experiencing quite serious challenges such as the Education gap which results in significant differences in literacy levels between regions. Geographical conditions and the background of the mother tongue also affect the skills of students in using Indonesian. Therefore, the development of learning media based on local wisdom in Papua is an important step that must be implemented to bridge the gap between theory and learning practice. Local wisdom embodies moral, social, and cultural values passed down from generation to generation and serves as a guide for community life. In the context of higher education, these values can serve as learning resources that enrich students' cognitive and affective experiences, helping them connect theory to real-life contexts and internalize sociocultural values. For example, research by Hidayati et al. and Salmiati et al. found that implementing local wisdom-based character education in Indonesian universities increased student tolerance and active participation. Similarly, research on learning based on local cultural values shows that the use of materials containing local wisdom has been proven to strengthen cultural identity and increase student learning motivation (Lubis et al. , 2022 and Sakti et al. , 2. Furthermore, systematic reviews indicate that local wisdom plays a crucial role in continuing education and character development among the younger generation (Abas et al. , 2022. Fathurohman et al. , 2. In the context of the Indonesian Language Learning Evaluation course, the integration of local wisdom can be realized through the use of folklore texts, community proverbs, or traditional communication practices as analytical materials for evaluation instruments. This allows students not only to understand technical concepts such as validity and reliability but also to relate these concepts to the character of students and the Papuan cultural environment. For example, research on the development of teaching materials found that materials containing local wisdom were more easily accepted and remembered by students due to their high cultural relevance (Asmayawati et al. , 2024. Naryatmojo D, 2. Furthermore, other research shows that learning that reflects local culture strengthens students' learning experiences as future educators who value diversity and possess cultural sensitivity (Saphira, 2. Therefore, the integration of local wisdom into learning media not only makes the material more relevant but also builds students' cultural awareness, making them educators who are not only technically competent but also responsive to cultural diversity. Along with technological advancements, digital transformation in education has spurred the emergence of various learning media innovations. One form is e-modules, electronic teaching materials that enable students to learn independently, flexibly, and interactively. According to Syahfitri . , e-modules excel because they combine text, images, audio, and video, creating a richer multimodal learning experience. This medium can be developed to provide simulations, automated assessments, and integrate local content according to user needs. Several previous studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of e-modules in improving learning outcomes. Patras et al. found that e-modules based on local wisdom improved students' conceptual understanding by up to 85%. Unfortunately, there has been little research developing e-modules for Indonesian Language Learning Evaluation courses that explicitly integrate Papuan cultural values. This research gap provides an important foundation for developing contextual learning Learning evaluation theories widely used in Indonesia still rely on classical approaches (Ezeh, 2023. Mehta, 2. , focusing on quantitative measurement of learning outcomes. This approach fails to account for cultural dimensions that can influence the evaluation process in multicultural regions like Papua. Several studies on local wisdom-based education have been conducted (Fadhilah & Sumarni, 2025. Hidayati et al. , 2. , but these have been mostly applied to literature or character Meanwhile, research on digital e-modules has focused heavily on technological aspects (Yusuf, 2. and has yet to address the integration of pedagogy and local culture. Thus, there is a new research space that combines all three: technology, pedagogy, and cultural values. Irwan Soulisa. Dinda Irdayani Soulisa.

Vol. 7, 1 (January-June, 2. 102 of 110 This research offers novelty in three ways. First, the integration of Papuan local wisdom values into the e-module content for the Indonesian Language Learning Evaluation course, a practice never before attempted at Victory University Sorong. Second, the development of an interactive e-module design using the ADDIE model, which is not only oriented towards appearance but also focuses on evaluative and reflective aspects based on cultural context. Third, the improvement of student competency through reflective learning that encourages understanding of the meaning of evaluation in the social and cultural context of West Papua. With these innovations, this research is expected to produce a learning model that is adaptive, humanistic, and relevant to the needs of students in eastern Indonesia. Victory University Sorong's vision is "excellent, independent, and rooted in local cultural values. This vision aligns with the national policy of Independent LearningAeIndependent Campus (MBKM), which emphasises project-based learning and local wisdom. Initial observations at UNVIC indicate that learning is still dominated by lecture methods and does not utilize digital technology extensively. Lecturers and students need teaching materials that facilitate cultural exploration and enable active learning interactions. Therefore, e-modules based on Papuan local wisdom are expected to be a concrete solution for creating participatory, reflective, and meaningful learning. Students can learn with evaluation examples sourced from local texts such as the Legend of Raja Ampat or the Story of the Bird of Paradise, while simultaneously developing language and cultural assessment skills within a unified learning process. The integration of technology and local wisdom in the development of this module is expected to be able to contribute to improving the quality of higher education in West Papua. Students not only focus on understanding the concept of learning evaluation, but also integrating cultural values in their thoughts and actions. Based on this, this research supports sustainable development goals (SDG. , mainly on quality education (SDG . and cultural preservation (SDG . Furthermore, this research strengthens the role of universities as centers of innovation capable of bridging modern science and local wisdom. Overall, this background indicates that the main problem in the Indonesian Language Learning Evaluation program at Victory University Sorong is the lack of learning media relevant to the Papuan socio-cultural context. Developing e-modules based on local wisdom is a strategic solution to improve student competency, enrich learning experiences, and strengthen local cultural identity in higher With a technology- and culture-based approach, it is hoped that a more adaptive, contextual learning model will be created, oriented toward developing intelligent, character-driven, and cultured future educators.

Vol. 7, 1 (January-June, 2. 104 of 110 characteristics of students in Papua. As many as 76% of students stated that the teaching materials used did not include the local cultural context, making them feel far from their daily learning experiences. Furthermore, interviews with two lecturers in charge of the course revealed that learning still predominantly uses conventional approaches and focuses on theoretical explanations. Students have not yet received learning experiences based on Papuan cultural contexts, such as the use of local texts, regional language expressions, or reflective activities based on customs. This situation indicates the need for innovative learning media capable of integrating local wisdom as a means of strengthening conceptual and affective understanding. The results of the learning context analysis indicate that students in Sorong come from diverse cultural backgrounds: Biak. Serui. Fakfak, and Arfak. This diversity opens up opportunities to present e-modules based on local wisdom that represent West Papuan culture in the context of language learning evaluation. The competency analysis shows that the learning outcomes (CPMK) in this course require students to understand the principles and techniques and develop evaluation instruments ethically and contextually. Therefore, the developed e-modules are directed at linking evaluation theory . alidity, reliability, objectivit. with cultural values such as honesty, cooperation, and responsibility in the Papuan social system. Design Stage The design phase focuses on planning the structure and content of the e-module. Based on the needs analysis, a media design is developed that combines pedagogical, technological, and cultural The e-module structure consists of five main chapters: Introduction: introduction to the concept of evaluation, the urgency of assessment in language education, and the relationship between evaluation and cultural values. The Concept of Indonesian Language Learning Evaluation: basic evaluation theory, types of assessment . iagnostic, formative, summativ. , and principles of validity and reliability. Evaluation Instruments: development of objective tests, descriptions, performance assessments, and authentic rubrics. Contextual Evaluation Based on Papuan Local Wisdom: examples of the application of evaluation to local narrative texts, such as the Legend of Manseren Manggundi, the Myth of the Bird of Paradise, and the Arfak Proverb. Cultural Reflection and Humanistic Assessment: evaluative learning that emphasises justice, empathy, and honesty. This media was designed using Articulate Storyline software and published in SCORM format, compatible with Victory University Sorong's Learning Management System (LMS). The design takes into account user-friendliness, a combination of typical Papuan colors . ellow, maroon, and navy blu. , and easy-to-read typography (Cambria and Poppin. Interactive features include automated quizzes, text assessment simulations, and video interviews with traditional figures. Development Stage The e-module prototype was developed based on the agreed-upon design. The development process involved media experts, content experts, and local cultural experts. Validation was conducted using a 1Ae5 Likert-scale assessment sheet and Aiken's V analysis. Irwan Soulisa. Dinda Irdayani Soulisa.

Interviews with students supported the quantitative data. One respondent stated: "I now understand better how to assess learning outcomes by taking into account student character and local culture, because the e-module contains many examples of texts from our own region. The lecturer also emphasized that the use of Papuan culture-based e-modules encourages students to think critically, empathize, and appreciate diversity. Therefore, this e-module product is deemed suitable and effective for widespread implementation in the learning process. Discussion The results of the study indicate that the development of an e-module based on Papuan local wisdom significantly contributed to improving student competency in the Indonesian Language Learning Evaluation course. Significant improvements in cognitive, affective, and psychomotor aspects demonstrate the effectiveness of a cultural values-based approach in enhancing students' conceptual understanding and social awareness. This aligns with the findings of Cheng et al. that integrating local cultural values into digital media significantly increases students' cultural awareness and learning From a pedagogical perspective, these results confirm the effectiveness of the ADDIE model in developing digital-based learning media. Each stage of the model allows for continuous validation and revision, ensuring a high level of feasibility for the final product. Research by (Luo et al. , 2024. Spatioti et al. , 2. also demonstrates that implementing the ADDIE model in distance learning produces systematic, measurable media that can improve learning outcomes by up to 25% compared to conventional methods. The integration of local wisdom into e-modules also enriches students' affective domains. They not only learn academic evaluation concepts but also understand the moral and social values inherent in assessment practices. Values such as honesty, respect, and responsibility, embedded in Papuan culture, reinforce the meaning of evaluation as a humanitarian process, not simply a numerical This perspective aligns with the humanizing assessment approach, which positions evaluation as a means of character building and social awareness (Shadiev et al. , 2. Theoretically, the results of this study extend the application of the Contextual Teaching and Learning theory (Johnson, 2. to the digital realm and local culture.

This approach enhances deep learning, as evidenced by (Wu, 2. in their meta-analysis that context-based digital learning improves conceptual understanding by 30Ae40% compared to passive learning. From a socio-cultural perspective, this research contributes to strengthening students' local The integration of Papuan culture into digital educational media supports the preservation of intangible heritage and strengthens the spirit of nationalism. This is relevant to the goal of Indonesian higher education to produce graduates with character and roots in the nation's culture. In line with Prasisko . , education based on local wisdom is a crucial instrument for maintaining diversity and building social solidarity in multi-ethnic regions. The study also confirmed that students were more motivated to learn when they saw themselves and their culture represented in the learning materials. This demonstrates the importance of representation in digital educational media. Students' intrinsic motivation increased because they perceived the learning as relevant and meaningful. These results support the study by Benavides-Varela et al. that contextualized digital-based interventions improved knowledge retention and student emotional engagement. In terms of practical implications, this e-module can serve as a replication model for the development of other teaching materials, such as Indonesian Language Teaching Methodology or Literary Text Analysis, with adaptations to the cultural values of each region. The use of e-modules also aligns with the Independent LearningAeIndependent Campus (MBKM) policy, which emphasises project-based learning, innovation, and local values. Furthermore, the results of this study support the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG. , particularly SDG 4 . uality educatio. and SDG 11 . reserving local culture in sustainable developmen. Overall, the results and discussion indicate that the developed e-module meets the three main criteria for effective learning media: validity, practicality, and effectiveness. High validity indicates appropriateness of content and cultural context. practicality indicates ease of use. and effectiveness indicates significant improvement in learning outcomes. Therefore, this e-module can be implemented as an integral part of the language education curriculum at Victory University Sorong and other regions in Eastern Indonesia. CONCLUSION The results of the study indicate that the development of an e-module based on Papuan local wisdom has proven valid, practical, and effective in improving student competency in the Indonesian Language Learning Evaluation course. The product developed through the ADDIE model has met the eligibility criteria with an average expert validity value of 0,90, a practicality level of 88,4%, and significant effectiveness based on the ANCOVA statistical test . < 0,. and a large effect size (Hedges' g = 0,. The integration of Papuan cultural valuesAisuch as honesty, responsibility, and solidarityAi into the e-module content can make the learning process more contextual and meaningful. Students not only understand the technical concepts of evaluation, but also internalize the ethical and social meanings in a fair assessment process that respects diversity. Thus, this e-module functions as a digital learning tool that is aligned with local cultural characteristics, while also addressing the need for educational innovation in eastern Indonesia. Theoretically and practically, this research emphasises the importance of a contextual learning approach based on local culture in the development of digital media for higher education. The integration of technology and local wisdom has created a synergy between pedagogical innovation and the preservation of cultural values, in line with the Merdeka Belajar-Kampus Merdeka policy and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG 4 and SDG . This e-module can be used as a model for replication for other courses that require a culture-based approach to strengthen students' competencies, character, and multicultural awareness. With this successful implementation. Victory University Sorong has the potential to become a pioneer in the development of digital learning rooted in Papuan culture that is humanistic, inclusive, and oriented towards improving the quality of national higher education.
