Abstract :
This study aims to develop a learning model that enhances 21st-century skills and character development among university-level students. Skills such as critical thinking, creativity, communication, and collaboration with character are crucial for facing the challenges of the Fourth Industrial Revolution and Society 5.0. Therefore, an appropriate learning model is needed for both schools and higher education institutions. The learning model developed in this research is the KoPI Lokal Islami, which integrates cooperative, project-based, and inquiry-based learning with local wisdom and Islamic values. This model was developed using the Dick and Carey Development Model. The outcomes of this study include the KoPI Lokal Islami Learning Model, teaching materials, 21st-century skills assessment tools, and character assessment instruments for prospective science teachers at the university level. Based on expert evaluations and small group testing, the KoPI Lokal Islami Learning Model is deemed highly suitable for implementation. Feedback from students (89 participants) also strongly supports the application of this model in fostering 21st-century skills and character development.
