Forming student characters through learning activities by integrating character values into learning includes integrating local character values. Learning that integrates character values needs to be continuously developed with various efforts, one of which is by developing scientific works. This study aims to uncover integrative learning that contains character values that support student character formation. The method used is participatory qualitative by using exposes facto data and triangulation using interview techniques. The research subjects were 49 students in public and private elementary schools in the city of Bandung. They are between 9 years and 10 years old and are in grade 5. The instrument used is a list of local character values and triangulation through interviews. The results of this study indicate that: (1) the skills of students who have values of local characters vary based on their family background and environment. (2) most students still have low knowledge of the insights of local characters. (3) knowledge about local characters obtained by students through integrated learning with local character education.
