Abstract

This research aims to empirically examine the influence of character education on student discipline and leadership at the higher education level. The study identifies the causal relationship between the implementation of character education values instilled through academic and extracurricular activities and students' behavior in terms of discipline, as well as their ability to demonstrate effective leadership. The results suggest that character education, encompassing values such as responsibility, honesty, and cooperation, significantly impacts students' adherence to rules, punctuality, and leadership skills. By focusing on the development of both personal and social values, character education plays a crucial role in shaping students not only as academically capable individuals but also as morally responsible and effective leaders. Despite the widespread implementation of character education programs in higher education, the study highlights the need for more consistent and integrated application to ensure its effective impact on students' overall behavior. This research provides valuable insights for educational institutions to refine their character development strategies to better align with the demands of the contemporary world.

Abstract

This research explores the implementation of humanities-based philosophy of education in the context of modern educational challenges. The study aims to examine how humanistic values, such as empathy, ethics, critical thinking, and social responsibility, can be integrated into the curriculum and teaching practices to foster holistic student development. Using a qualitative approach with a case study design, the research involves in-depth interviews with educators, students, and experts, as well as document analysis of curricula and educational programs. The findings reveal that institutions applying humanistic principles in their educational framework show significant positive impacts on student character development, including enhanced empathy, social cooperation, and emotional growth. However, challenges such as limited teacher training, lack of resources, and the prevailing focus on academic and technical skills hinder the full integration of these values. The study concludes by recommending a more balanced curriculum that prioritizes humanistic education, alongside policy reforms and teacher development initiatives, to better address the evolving needs of students and society.
