"Tortor" as one of the traditional arts of the Batak tribe becomes one of the subjects of learning in formal activities and becomes a must-have competency, also in informal activities. In the learning process, knowledge is not only given in text (dance form), but the context of the dance is a part that must be introduced as local content. This is done as a strengthening of the knowledge of graduates as prospective teachers, who function as motivators, facilitators, and how to present them in class so that PBM can be successful. However, in the learning process there are still many obstacles, especially the lack of learning resources related to the cultural context of the community, as a basis for understanding in learning traditional dance. Especially with technological advances that require lecturers to be more creative in the process of transferring knowledge. Based on this, the aim of this research is to focus on exploring Batak culture in relation to the preservation of traditional arts as a learning resource.
