Penguatan Pendidikan Karakter Berbasis Budaya Sekolah

Abstract

Character education not only teaches what is good and what is wrong to students, but character education also applies positive habits, so that students are able to understand and implement these values in saying and acting every day. To realize character education that emphasizes positive habits that will continue to be practiced and implemented by students, it is necessary to have cooperation between all school members. All school members play a role in providing direction and guidance for students to practice the five main character values of character education, namely religious values, nationalism values, independent values, mutual cooperation values, and integrity values. Implementation of Strengthening Character Education (PPK) based on school culture discusses various problems in the world of education regarding habituation of the main values in everyday life at school, setting a good example in the school environment, involving the entire school ecosystem, building and complying with school rules, norms, and traditions, and develop the talents, interests, and potential of students. Thus character education can be integrated through school culture to instill positive values and habits in students.
