Abstract:
Abstract: Traditional games result from a cultural process passed down from
generation to generation. Nowadays, they are rarely found, while the younger
generation prefers to play modern games. One of the traditional Banjar games that still
survive today is bagasing. It is a game of spinning gasings and rammed it one another
to see which one will stand last. This game has many values behind that potential to
be explored as a source of learning in social studies education. This article aims to explain the traditional game of bagasing and its values. It is identical and played by
children, but some are popular among adults. This research uses a qualitative
approach. The stages of data analysis are as follows: 1) data reduction that is not
following the focus of the study, 2) presenting the data in the form of descriptive
narrative, and 3) drawing conclusions based on research findings to describe the
research results systematically. The bagasing game is one of the traditional games of
the Banjar community that still exists today. This game consists of two teams that
compete and use two types of bini and laki: attached and panukun or punch gasing.
There are also character education values such as teamwork, agility, honesty in playing,
cohesiveness, and solidarity, besides strengthening local wisdom and character in
students' social studies learning, especially at the junior high school level.
