AKAR SEBAGAI APLIKASI PERINTIS PRESERVASI MEMORI SOSIAL MASYARAKAT

Abstract

The article entitled AKAR (Family Records) as a Pioneering Application for the Preservation of Community Social Memory discusses genealogy pioneers and digital family records management with the research location in RW Punukan, Wates Village, Wates District, Kulon Progo Regency, Yogyakarta Special Region. The community understands family records but does not yet have the awareness to manage family records properly. This research uses descriptive qualitative methods. Data collection was carried out in 3 ways, namely participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and literature studies. The next step after data collected is processed then reduced and interpreted. To ensure the correctness of the research, the researcher triangulated the data. As a solution to the problems faced by Indonesian families, researchers created an effective and efficient family records storage application. The storage and preservation stages of family records with the AKAR application are capture (transfer of textual records media), registration (registering family records), classification (classifying records based on the classification provided), storage (storing records based on classification results), and use and tracking (use and search of family records).
