Abstract

Purpose-This article analyzes the role of Citizenship Education in shaping intelligent, responsible, and nationally committed citizens. It examines how Civics develops civic literacy, strengthens awareness of rights and obligations, and embeds Pancasila values as the moral foundation for constructive participation in society. Research Methodology/Design/Approach- literature review was conducted by examining scholarly articles, books, curriculum documents, and official publications related to Citizenship Education and character development. This approach enabled a focused synthesis of key concepts, learning objectives, and pedagogical challenges within Civics instruction. Findings-The study finds that Citizenship Education significantly contributes to developing civic knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors aligned with democratic and national values. However, its implementation is often limited by insufficient teacher competence, lack of contextual and innovative teaching methods, and weak integration of Pancasila values into classroom practices. Strengthening teacher roles as facilitators and role models is essential to enhance the effectiveness of Civics learning. Originality/Value-This article provides a concise conceptual understanding of how Citizenship Education can be optimized to foster a generation with strong civic responsibility and national identity, offering insights for improving pedagogical practice and curriculum development.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of social media usage on adolescents’ legal awareness in Paccinongang Subdistrict, Gowa Regency. The background of this research is based on the high intensity of social media use among adolescents, which has the potential to influence their understanding and legal behavior in the digital space. This study employs a mixed methods approach with a sequential explanatory design. Quantitative data were collected through questionnaires administered to 93 respondents and analyzed using simple linear regression, while qualitative data were obtained through in-depth interviews with nine informants. The results show that social media usage has a positive and significant effect on adolescents’ legal awareness (p < 0.05), with a coefficient of determination (R²) of 50.7%. Qualitative findings reveal that social media plays a role in shaping legal knowledge, attitudes, and behavior through content exposure, digital interaction, and media experience. This study concludes that social media has the potential to serve as an effective tool in enhancing adolescents’ legal awareness when utilized wisely and in an educational manner.
