Keywords:
History Education, Narrative Approach, Digital Tecnology, Curriculum Relevance, Indonesia's Uoung GenerationAbstract
History education in Indonesia plays an essential role in shaping young people's national identity and historical awareness. However, social changes and technological advances have affected how students access and understand information, so the relevance of national historical narratives in contemporary education needs to be reviewed. This research aims to conduct a comprehensive literature review on practical approaches to integrating national historical narratives into contemporary education in Indonesia. The method used was content analysis of relevant literature, including journal articles, books, and research reports published in the last ten years. The analysis results show that the narrative approach, the use of digital technology, and the relevance of the material to students' lives significantly impact students' understanding and engagement in learning history. The narrative approach that connects historical events with students' personal experiences is proven to improve their memory and interest. Digital technology also plays a role in making learning more dynamic and engaging. However, successful implementation of this approach depends on curriculum adjustments and teacher training. This research suggests curriculum revision that is more relevant to students' lives and increased use of technology in history teaching to improve the effectiveness of history education in Indonesia.
