Qualitative data were analyzed through the descriptive content of democratic concepts based on the wayang kancil storytelling ‘Demokrasi Rimbaraya’ (Democracy in the Forest). The study result shows that there were average differences of students’ democratic learning in the experimental group from the control group. The improvement of the student democratic learning in experimental group was bigger than the control group. Based on the analysis result of the story of wayang kancil there were five emerging themes: (1) mutual acceptance, (2) living together in differences, (3) respect for others, (4) responsibility, and (5) being fair. Encountering with these democratic elements through wayang kancil as medium of instruction promotes students’ understanding of democracy.
