Abstract
Students have a unique opportunity to interact profoundly with cultural values, customs, and histories through dance culture. Learning different dance styles helps the students to comprehend cultural diversity and heritage by gaining an awareness of the traditions, values, and expressions of many civilizations. Dance is a cultural activity and an art form that facilitates social belonging and cultural identification in addition to being a vehicle for artistic expression. The study's goal is to investigate how dance culture learning affects students' cultural values. A total of 275 students from various educational institutions are selected using a purposive sampling technique. The survey includes questions related to cultural awareness, empathy, respect for diversity, and cultural identity. The data analyzed using statistical methods include descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, paired t-tests, and regression analysis. The results showed that all variables of dance cultural learning had a positive influence on the students' cultural values. The results suggest that studying cultural dance helps students to develop a greater appreciation for cultural heritage and strengthens their feeling of local cultural identity, both of which contribute to a more comprehensive knowledge of cultural values. The study's conclusions help teachers to understand how arts education, especially dance, can help children cultivate a more inclusive perspective.
