Bunga Suci Mawaddah — 2025-08-05

Fort Van der Capellen, a colonial Dutch heritage site located in Batusangkar City, Tanah Datar Regency, has a long history marked by various functional transformations, including serving as a colonial defense post, Japanese military headquarters, a Teacher Training College (now State University of Padang), and later the Tanah Datar Police Resort office. Since ceasing its official function in 2000, the building fell into neglect and deterioration due to aging and insufficient maintenance. This article examines the preservation efforts carried out by the government through the Batusangkar Cultural Preservation Center between 2007 and 2010, employing the historical method through heuristics, source criticism, interpretation, and historiography. The findings reveal that the preservation process occurred in three stages: first, protection through environmental cleaning in 2007 and phased physical restoration from 2008 to 2010; second, development involving documentation, technical studies, and expert involvement to ensure a planned conservation process; and third, utilization, including the fort’s adaptive reuse as the Office of Tourism, Youth, and Sports of Tanah Datar Regency and its designation as a National Cultural Heritage site.

Zahra Arlita — 2025-08-07

This study aims to explore knowledge related to the need for developing animated video media assisted by the Canva application, which is intended to enhance students’ causal thinking skills in history learning. The approach used in this research is a qualitative method with descriptive data. The data collection techniques employed include observation, interviews, and pre-tests. Through these three techniques, the researcher was able to comprehensively identify the needs for developing animated video media. The findings reveal two main focuses: student analysis and curriculum analysis. From the student analysis, it was found that students require learning media that can foster the development of causal thinking skills. This need arises due to the limited ability of teachers to create instructional media, particularly technology-based media. Meanwhile, based on the curriculum analysis, it was found that history learning at Grade XI, Phase F, refers to the Merdeka Curriculum, with the core material focusing on the Proclamation of Indonesian Independence. The learning achievement expected from this material is for students to be able to explain causal relationships and the sequence of events surrounding the Proclamation of Independence.
