Abstract

Local wisdom-based learning is essential for fostering cultural values and enhancing students^ awareness of social issues. Recent advances in technology, particularly artificial intelligence (AI) and educational applications, provide innovative tools to support interactive and contextually relevant learning. This literature review examines how AI and educational applications contribute to improving students^ understanding of local wisdom and associated social issues. Analysis of recent scholarly articles highlights that these technologies enhance student engagement, conceptual understanding, and critical thinking, while promoting collaborative and experiential learning. Despite these benefits, challenges such as limited access to technology, teacher preparedness, and content quality persist. In conclusion, AI and educational applications offer an effective and innovative approach to strengthen local wisdom-based learning and social issue comprehension, provided that sufficient infrastructure and quality content are ensured.
