The declining recognition of Nias local culture among elementary school students highlights the need for contextual local content teaching materials that reflect students' cultural environments. This study aims to develop a local content module based on Nias local wisdom and examine its validity, practicality, and effectiveness in improving the learning motivation of fifth-grade students at SD Negeri 071059 Hilibadalu. This study employed a Research and Development (R&D) approach using the 4D development model (Define, Design, Develop, and Disseminate). The research subjects consisted of 23 fifth-grade students. Data were collected through observations, interviews, expert validation questionnaires, practicality questionnaires, and learning motivation questionnaires administered before and after the module implementation. Data were analyzed using qualitative and quantitative descriptive techniques, percentage calculations, and the Normalized Gain (N-Gain) test. The results indicated that the module achieved validation scores of 96.4% for content, 91.6% for language, and 95.8% for design, all categorized as highly feasible. Practicality assessments from students and teachers also indicated positive results. Learning motivation increased from 56.10% to 100%, with an average N-Gain of 1.00, categorized as high. Therefore, the developed module is suitable as contextual teaching material to enhance students' learning motivation while supporting the preservation of Nias local culture.
