Abstract

The main problem of history learning in Papua is the alienation of students with the content lessons. Because most of the historical content is far from the reality of everyday life of the students because of the setting and locality generally from outside Papua. Therefore, history learning must emphasize the social and cultural aspects of Papua. This study aims to describe Papuan-ness identity of high school students in Jayapura. This study was conducted by using a qualitative research design. Furthermore, the subjects of this research included the native Papuan high school students and the high school students from mixed marriage (Papuan and non-Papuan) in Jayapura. Data collection employed observation, interviews, and the document method. Particularly, data analysis technique used interactive analysis. The result showed that there were two categories of Papuan-ness identity of the high school students in Jayapura: local identity and multicultural. Development of learning history in Papua in accordance with local identity and multicultural should be done immediately. Materials on local identity make history education more meaningful and cultivate students critical power.
