In the whole process of learning in educational institutions in schools is the main foundation. This is in line with the state's objectives contained in the preamble of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia which reads "to educate the life of the nation".
In a learning process, various strategies are needed to achieve learning objectives. So that it can produce one change in each lesson. Teachers of the 21st century are required to always provide new innovations to students so that learning is not monotonous. 21st century learning is learning designed for the 21st century generation to be able to keep up with the latest technological developments. Therefore, the teacher as the spearhead of human development must know about developments and changing times.

In addition, another impact of the transfer of these values has implications for a lack of understanding of regional cultural values which strengthens the understanding and character of the Indonesian generation. If this problem is left unchecked, it will have an impact on the loss of understanding of regional cultures which are the nation's wealth, especially in the younger generation of Banten Province. However, to maintain national identity and understanding of local wisdom is to integrate it into the formal education curriculum (Suja & Wirta, 2012; Asmani, 2012).
One of the causes of the problem is that it can be found in the teaching materials used and teaching techniques for English and PPKn subjects which integrate knowledge of each of the basic competencies listed in the syllabus with an understanding of the concept of local culture in the people of Banten Province. Thus, the innovations carried out by teachers of SMAN 3 KABUPATEN TANGERANG starting from 2020 until now applied and the integrated learning model, namely, Collaboration between English subjects and PPKn integrated learning based on local culture is value education, character education, education moral, and character education that aims to develop the ability of students to make good and bad decisions, maintain what is good according to the views of life, science, strategies that apply in the study learning process where students are carried out exploring local culture that exists in every city or Regency of Banten Province. Therefore, this learning is quite important to do in order to add references and increase students' understanding of contextual learning. The success factor in achieving the goals for innovative learning is the collaboration and active role of all parties in the world of education to support teachers in carrying out learning in accordance with the 21st century. So that SMAN 3 KABUPATEN TANGERANG teachers have succeeded in motivating students to carry out fun learning learning in the learning model integrated learning.
