Exploring history through tiktok as a modern learning tool

History is not the favorite subject of the young generation today. History is considered as an uninteresting subject and not necessary to learn. However, the courses of history remain a compulsory to be studied in all IPTA and IPTS in Malaysia such as Malaysia Studies, Ethics & Civilization and Ethnic Relation. In fact, students will not be able to graduate if they fail in these courses. Accordingly, researchers look for solutions to assist students to improve their understanding in history courses. In this study, researchers use TikTok as a medium to teach history. The videos used are simple and easy to understand. The lecturer will share a short TikTok video that lasts three to five minutes after teaching a topic. The video includes a summary of the topic that was studied. This TikTok video's explanation assists students in better understanding of the topic. The content of TikTok is simple to understand due to the use of simple language, interesting writing, interesting visuals, and background music that students enjoy. This research uses a survey method to get students' answers on whether this medium of TikTok is suitable to be used to convey historical information or otherwise. The results of the study found that TikTok is a medium that is easy to understand and suitable for teaching and learning history.
