Character Building Education through Personalized Programs and E-Learning by Computer Software: A Case Study of Larantuka East Nusa Tenggara in Indonesia

The Indonesian government prioritizes development in the 3T regions: frontier, outermost, and least-developed areas, which are vital for holistic progress. Aligned with the Golden Generation program, it emphasizes education, tech access, and entrepreneurship to empower youth against societal challenges. Larantuka, in East Nusa Tenggara of Indonesia, exemplifies local maritime culture's influence and the need for personalized e-learning which is rooted in tradition. Qualitative research was conducted and identified two key factors: content reflecting collective memory and offline accessibility. Local culture alongside formal education fosters character building and lifelong learning by integrating theoretical teachings with practical applications, based on the cultural value of "gotong royong" (mutual cooperation). This approach ensures that Indonesia's cultural heritage thrives amidst educational progress.
