Abstract

The low level of student initiative, despite relatively high levels of empathy and resilience, presents a significant challenge in character development at the secondary level, as it has the potential to hinder independence, proactive behavior, and readiness to meet both academic and life demands. This study aims to analyze the relationship between initiative, empathy, and resilience, while also identifying their implications for strategies to strengthen student character. Employing a quantitative descriptive correlational design, the research involved 300 respondents using an 18-item questionnaire that was both valid and reliable (Cronbach’s α = 0.86–0.90). Data were collected through surveys and analyzed using descriptive statistics and Pearson’s correlation test. The findings indicate that empathy ranked highest, followed by resilience, while initiative ranked lowest, highlighting the need for interventions to foster autonomy and proactive behavior. A strong positive correlation was found among the three variables, particularly between initiative and resilience (r = 0.79), indicating interdependence. These results recommend enhancing empathy through Social and Emotional Learning (SEL), resilience through counseling, and initiative through independent projects and coaching, in alignment with the Pancasila Student Profile (Profil Pelajar Pancasila) and the World Economic Forum’s character taxonomy, to support students’ holistic development.

Abstract

Education serves not only as a medium for transferring knowledge but also as a process of shaping values and character that are manifested in real behavior. One of the fundamental character traits that must be nurtured in higher education is discipline, particularly in the context of globalization and the competitive tourism industry that demands professionalism. This study aims to analyze the achievement of students’ discipline character in the Cultural Tourism Department through the Travel Industry Practicum, based on five key indicators: obedience, compliance, loyalty, regularity, and orderliness. The research employed a quantitative descriptive approach using a questionnaire instrument adapted from Patmawati (2013). The population consisted of 75 students from the 2021 cohort, with a sample of 43 respondents determined through Slovin’s formula and convenience sampling. The findings reveal that during the initial phase of the practicum, several weaknesses were observed in students’ discipline, such as tardiness, uniform neatness, and consistency in task completion. However, after completing the practicum over one semester, all discipline indicators showed significant improvement, reaching the “very good” category with an average score of 4,66. These results indicate that practical field experience combined with institutional guidance effectively strengthens students’ internalization of discipline values. In conclusion, the Travel Industry Practicum is not only a vehicle for applying academic theory, but also serves as an effective strategy for character building. The results of this study make an important contribution to strengthening Thomas Lickona's noble character education framework through its application in higher education, particularly in the field of tourism. These findings can serve as a strategic basis for policy formulation and curriculum development oriented towards the formation of disciplinary character, so that higher education can produce graduates who are not only academically competent but also excel in work ethic and character values.

Abstract

Integrity is an essential character that every prospective clergy must have. In the context of higher education, especially theological higher education institutions, the formation of integrity becomes an integral part of the process of forming students' personalities. This study aims to describe the character portrait of integrity in prospective clergy students at the Sekolah Tinggi Teologi Amanat Agung, Jakarta. This study uses a descriptive quantitative approach with a survey method. The research respondents were 58 students of the Sarjana Teologi study program. The research instrument was a questionnaire developed based on the dimensions of integrity according to the concept of personal integrity, namely honesty, moral consistency, responsibility, and moral courage. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistical techniques to map the tendencies of the respondents' integrity characters. The results of the study showed that most prospective clergy students had a high level of integrity in the aspects of honesty and responsibility, but there were still weaknesses in the aspect of moral courage in facing situations that demanded difficult ethical decision-making. These findings indicate that the process of forming integrity in prospective clergy requires further strengthening, especially through a seminary-based learning approach. This study is expected to be a reference for theological higher education institutions in compiling a character formation curriculum that is more effective and relevant to the needs of the times.

Abstract

Character education is a key pillar in fostering sustainable academic motivation amidst the challenges of moral degradation and low student engagement in vocational schools. This study aims to analyze the influence of character education on the academic motivation of students at State Vocational High School (SMK) 15 Bandung, focusing on the dimensions of responsibility, integrity, and discipline in the context of vocational learning. A quantitative approach was employed, utilizing an explanatory survey method with 397 student respondents from four expertise programs: Social Work, Hospitality, Culinary, and Visual Communication Design. Data were collected through a Likert-scale-based questionnaire and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) with SmartPLS 4 software. The results showed that character education had a positive and significant effect on students' academic motivation. Character values ​​were proven to strengthen students' self-efficacy, learning persistence, and goal orientation through increased self-regulation and perceptions of educational responsibility. These findings confirm the principles of self-determination theory and social-cognitive theory, which suggest that character-based learning can increase intrinsic motivation through the interaction between personal, social, and cognitive factors. This research makes theoretical contributions to the development of an integrative character-motivation model and offers practical implications for teachers and policymakers in designing learning experiences that foster student responsibility, independence, and overall well-being.

Abstract

Interfaith harmony remains a critical challenge in Indonesia’s plural society, where intolerance persists despite normative policy frameworks. Existing scholarship has rarely provided a systematic conceptual model linking Islamic compassion-based values to measurable indicators of harmony. Addressing this gap, this study examines the Ministry of Religious Affairs’ Kurikulum Berbasis Cinta (Love-Based Curriculum, KBC) and its relevance to strengthening tolerance, acceptance of difference, non-violence, and interreligious harmony. A qualitative descriptive design was employed, combining a systematic literature review of policy documents, peer-reviewed journal articles, and theoretical works. Data were extracted using a structured template and coded deductively around the values of mahabbah, rahmah, and amanah, and inductively to capture emergent themes. The analysis followed PRISMA guidelines to ensure transparency and rigor. Findings indicate three key contributions. First, KBC provides a coherent normative foundation that integrates spiritual, social, and ecological dimensions of education. Second, the values of mahabbah and rahmah are conceptually linked to empathy, tolerance, and conflict resolution, while amanah reinforces ecological responsibility and shared moral accountability. Third, the framework demonstrates that religious moderation can emerge as an outcome of KBC, moving beyond doctrinal instruction toward dialogical and inclusive practices. This study concludes that KBC offers a novel conceptual framework for embedding affective and ethical values into education. Future research should empirically test its implementation to assess its effectiveness in fostering sustainable interfaith harmony and social cohesion. ABSTRAKKerukunan antarumat beragama tetap menjadi tantangan krusial dalam masyarakat majemuk Indonesia, di mana intoleransi masih bertahan meskipun telah tersedia kerangka kebijakan normatif. Kajian sebelumnya jarang menyajikan model konseptual yang sistematis yang menghubungkan nilai-nilai berbasis cinta dalam Islam dengan indikator harmoni yang terukur. Untuk mengisi kekosongan tersebut, penelitian ini menelaah Kurikulum Berbasis Cinta (KBC) yang digagas Kementerian Agama serta relevansinya dalam memperkuat toleransi, penerimaan perbedaan, anti-kekerasan, dan kerja sama antaragama. Penelitian ini menggunakan desain deskriptif kualitatif dengan tinjauan sistematis terhadap dokumen kebijakan, studi akademik dan karya teoretis. Data diekstraksi menggunakan templat terstruktur dan dikodekan secara deduktif berdasarkan nilai mahabbah, rahmah, dan amanah, serta secara induktif untuk menangkap tema-tema baru. Analisis mengikuti pedoman PRISMA guna memastikan transparansi dan ketelitian. Temuan menunjukkan tiga poin utama. Pertama, Kurikulum Berbasis Cinta menyediakan landasan normatif yang koheren dengan mengintegrasikan dimensi spiritual, sosial, dan ekologis pendidikan. Kedua, nilai mahabbah dan rahmah terkait secara konseptual dengan empati, toleransi dan resolusi konflik; sedangkan amanah memperkuat tanggung jawab ekologis dan akuntabilitas moral bersama. Ketiga, kerangka ini menunjukkan bahwa moderasi beragama dapat muncul sebagai hasil dari pedagogi berbasis cinta, melampaui pengajaran doktrinal menuju praktik dialogis dan inklusif. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa Kurikulum Berbasis Cinta menawarkan kerangka konseptual baru untuk mengintegrasikan nilai afektif dan etis dalam pendidikan. Penelitian lanjutan perlu menguji implementasinya secara empiris guna menilai efektivitasnya dalam membangun kerukunan antarumat beragama dan kohesi sosial yang berkelanjutan.

Abstract

Perkembangan pendidikan Islam abad ke-21 menuntut strategi pembentukan karakter peserta didik yang holistik. Program MABIT (Malam Bina Iman dan Taqwa) telah banyak diterapkan, namun kajian sistematis mengenai mekanisme internalisasi nilainya masih terbatas. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis internalisasi nilai-nilai Islam melalui program MABIT dalam konteks pendidikan karakter. Penelitian menggunakan metode Systematic Literature Review (SLR) dengan panduan PRISMA terhadap 18 artikel terbitan 2019–2025. Analisis tematik dilakukan untuk mengidentifikasi nilai karakter, peran guru, kepala sekolah, dan orang tua sebagai teladan, serta faktor pendukung dan penghambat program. Kebaruan penelitian terletak pada pemetaan MABIT sebagai model internalisasi nilai Islam berbasis teori pendidikan karakter Thomas Lickona (moral knowing, moral feeling, dan moral action). Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahwa MABIT mampu menanamkan nilai religiusitas, disiplin, tanggung jawab, kemandirian, dan kepedulian sosial melalui ibadah, refleksi, dan pembiasaan. Penelitian ini menegaskan MABIT sebagai model pendidikan karakter Islami integratif yang memperkaya kajian pendidikan karakter Islam dan relevan untuk praktik pendidikan sekolah.

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis keteladanan guru sebagai role model dalam pengembangan integritas peserta didik sekolah dasar. Integritas dipahami sebagai keselarasan antara nilai, ucapan, dan tindakan dalam kehidupan sehari-hari. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan desain studi fenomenologis interpretatif yang dilaksanakan di SDN 201 Sukaluyu, Kota Bandung. Subjek penelitian terdiri atas empat guru dan delapan peserta didik sebagai informan utama, serta kepala sekolah sebagai informan pendukung. Pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui wawancara mendalam dan observasi terhadap praktik keseharian guru dalam berbagai konteks kegiatan sekolah selama satu bulan. Data dianalisis melalui proses reduksi data, penyajian data, dan penarikan kesimpulan dengan menerapkan teknik triangulasi untuk meningkatkan keabsahan temuan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa keteladanan guru sebagai role model dimanifestasikan secara konsisten melalui perilaku disiplin, relasi emosional yang positif, inspirasi moral, serta kemampuan guru dalam menghadapi tantangan profesional secara etis. Keteladanan yang ditampilkan melalui perilaku nyata, empati, dan konsistensi antara ucapan dan tindakan dimaknai peserta didik sebagai pengalaman pembelajaran yang berkontribusi pada pengembangan integritas. Penelitian ini menegaskan bahwa keteladanan guru merupakan strategi pedagogis yang bermakna dalam pengembangan integritas peserta didik di sekolah dasar

Abstract

The study aims to determine the effectiveness of the STEAM-based Project-Based Learning (PjBL) model in improving critical thinking skills among elementary school students. This research is based on the issue of low critical thinking ability in Science subjects, particularly because the STEAM approach has not yet been applied in learning. The study was conducted at 1 Pawenang Elementary School as an effort to introduce a learning model that integrates Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics. The STEAM-based PjBL syntax includes formulating essential questions, designing project plans, preparing information-gathering schedules, implementing projects, monitoring activities, testing project outcomes, evaluating learning experiences, and drawing conclusions. This study used a mixed-methods approach with a sequential explanatory design. The quantitative phase examined the effectiveness of STEAM in improving students’ critical thinking in Science, while the qualitative phase, through interviews and observations, identified the processes and supporting factors influencing the model’s implementation. The results showed that the STEAM-based PjBL model was effective in enhancing students’ critical thinking skills. Statistical analysis indicated a significance value of 0.001 < 0.05, meaning that the STEAM-based PjBL model had a significant positive effect on the improvement of students’ critical thinking character.

Abstract

General Background: The digital era requires elementary school students to possess critical thinking as a foundational character to evaluate information and make reasoned decisions within learning processes. Specific Background: Project-based learning integrated with STEAM has been positioned as a relevant pedagogical context for fostering critical thinking, yet systematic assessment remains challenging at the elementary level. Knowledge Gap: Existing assessment instruments are predominantly conventional and lack robust psychometric validation to comprehensively measure critical thinking characteristics in STEAM-oriented project learning. Aims: This study aims to validate a critical thinking character assessment instrument for elementary school students using Rasch Model analysis within project-based STEAM learning in the digital era. Results: From 29 developed items, 20 items met Rasch validity criteria, with person reliability of 0.82, item reliability of 0.98, and a Cronbach’s Alpha value of 0.81, indicating strong internal consistency and effective differentiation of student ability levels. Novelty: This study presents a psychometrically validated instrument specifically designed to assess critical thinking character in elementary school students through STEAM-based project learning using Rasch Model analysis. Implications: The validated instrument provides teachers with an objective and systematic assessment tool to monitor and develop students’ critical thinking character in alignment with the demands of digital-era elementary education. Highlights • The instrument demonstrated high person and item reliability through Rasch analysis• Valid items represented five dimensions of critical thinking character• Assessment results supported objective differentiation of student ability levels Keywords Critical Thinking; Rasch Model; Project Based Learning; STEAM Education; Elementary School

Abstract

The decline in students’ moral and spiritual values highlights the urgency of developing character education based on religious habituation. This study was motivated by the need to instill Islamic character values in elementary school students through meaningful and consistent routines. The purpose of this research is to describe the implementation and effectiveness of the Program Literasi Agama Islam (PLITA) or Islamic Religious Literacy Program at SDN 2 Giriwangi in shaping the religious character of fifth- and sixth-grade students. The PLITA program is conducted every Thursday through a series of activities, including the recitation of Asmaul Husna, reading short Qur’anic surahs, chanting Sholawat Nabi, short religious lectures, interactive discussions, and structured reflective assignments. This study employed a qualitative descriptive approach with a case study design. Data were collected through classroom observations, interviews with teachers and students, and documentation of PLITA activities. The data were analyzed using the Miles and Huberman interactive model data reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawing—with triangulation for validation. The results show that PLITA significantly contributes to improving students’ religious attitudes, discipline, responsibility, and spiritual awareness. Students became more engaged, polite, and active in religious practices, while teachers played a crucial role as role models and value reinforcers. The findings align with the theories of Habituation (Skinner), Social Learning (Bandura), and Character Education (Lickona), emphasising repetition, modelling, and internalisation of values. In conclusion, PLITA is an effective and innovative religious education model based on habituation and reflective literacy, fostering religious character and discipline among elementary students.
