Abstract

This article provides an overview of educational
values ​​contained in Randai Minangkabau art, Indonesia. Randai
is one of the folk arts and local wisdom for the Minangkabau people, West
Sumatra, Indonesia. Educational values ​​from
Randai art can be integrated into the learning process as an effort to build the
talents and character of students. The research was a qualitative descriptive
study focused on ethnopedagogic fields. Data was obtained through interviews
with traditional leaders, Minangkabau culturalists and Randai art trainers,
West Sumatra, Indonesia. Based on the research that has been carried out, the
results show that the educational value of Randai was grouped into three parts,
namely: the philosophy of Randai art, the value of education in preparation for
the Randai performance and the value of education in the performance of Randai.
Philosophically, Randai's art aims at character education delivered through Kaba (stories). In preparation for Randai,
there were several educational values ​​including:
Barundiang (negotiating) principally
at bulek kato dek mufakaik and
bakarajosamo (in collaboration). Meanwhile, from the performance of Randai,
there was an educational value that was reflected in the activities of pasambahan, Kaba, garak malingka and the dramatic act of kato nan ampek. Educational values ​​from
Randai art that had been identified pedagogically can be integrated in the
learning process, especially learning Biology.
