Abstract

This research aims to analyze the effectiveness of the Learning Management System (LMS) adapted to localculture in improving educational performance in elementary schools. The method used is a critical literaturereview of various studies related to the implementation of local culture-based LMS. The research results showthat LMS that integrates local values, language, and customs is able to increase student engagement,learning motivation, and the effectiveness of learning management by teachers and school management.Local culture-based LMS also creates an inclusive and relevant learning environment in a socio-cultural way,which has a positive impact on understanding material and developing student character. However, thisresearch also identifies significant challenges such as limited technology infrastructure, lack of teachertraining, and resistance to changes from conventional to digital systems. These findings emphasize theimportance of a cultural approach in the development of educational technology and provide strategicrecommendations for LMS developers and policymakers to optimize the integration of local culture in digitallearning systems. This research opens up opportunities for broader quantitative empirical studies to measurethe direct impact of local culture-based LMS and the development of standard but flexible LMS models forcultural adaptation.
