The Contribution of Habitus, Social Capital and Arena, As Well As Student Responses in Social Studies Learning at SMPN 2 Bulukumba

Abstract

This research was conducted using a qualitative approach with a case study method. The study aimed to obtain in-depth data on the contributions of Habitus, Social Capital, and the Learning Environment in Social Studies education. The informants for this research consisted of seventh-grade students and teachers at SMPN 2 Bulukumba. Data analysis was carried out using both inductive and deductive methods. The results of the research found a significant relationship between Social Studies education and social capital, as the learning process in Social Studies provides students with knowledge of values, beliefs, norms, and networks. Social capital is also related to social skills, values, and attitudes. The learning environment in Social Studies includes the availability of good classroom facilities. Social Studies education at SMPN 2 Bulukumba aligns with Pierre Bourdieu's theory of Habitus, Social Capital, and the Learning Environment. In the seventh-grade classrooms at SMPN 2 Bulukumba, teachers engage students actively, with the teacher not being the center of attention; instead, both teacher and students collaborate in discussions. Keywords: Contribution of Habitus, Social Capital, Arena, Student Responses, Social Studies Learning.
