Abstract

This study aims to examine the effectiveness of providing motivation and inspiration as a form of character education for the young generation in realizing Indonesia Emas 2045, with a case study at Betlehem Orphanage, Bandar Baru. The background of this study lies in the urgent need to prepare Indonesia’s youth as the nation’s future leaders, who must embody resilience, discipline, and integrity in order to contribute meaningfully to the country’s golden era vision. The research employed a descriptive qualitative approach through the implementation of a motivational seminar attended by 44 foster children. Data were collected using observation, interviews, and documentation during the activity. The findings reveal that the seminar had a significant positive impact, as evidenced by the increased motivation to learn, greater enthusiasm for achieving personal goals, enhanced discipline, and the development of core character values such as responsibility, self-confidence, and teamwork. These outcomes indicate that providing structured motivation and inspiration can serve as an effective strategy for strengthening character education among youth, particularly those from vulnerable backgrounds. Furthermore, the study contributes to the broader discourse on educational innovation by demonstrating how non-formal initiatives, such as motivational seminars, complement formal education in fostering holistic character development. The practical implication suggests that similar programs should be continuously promoted in orphanages, schools, and other educational institutions as part of sustainable efforts to build a generation that is not only academically capable but also morally strong and socially responsible.

Abstract

Education plays a crucial role in shaping the quality of human resources in the era of global competition. Teachers are at the forefront of this process, as their performance directly determines the effectiveness of teaching and learning. This study examines the effect of job satisfaction and work discipline on the performance of teachers at Buddhist Sunday Schools (Sekolah Minggu Buddhis, SMB) under the Guang Ji Indonesia Buddhist Assembly in North Sumatra. A quantitative research method was employed, with data collected through questionnaires distributed to 106 respondents out of a population of 144 teachers, determined using the Slovin formula at a 5% significance level. The study analyzed three main variables: job satisfaction (X1), work discipline (X2), and teacher performance (Y). Regression analysis revealed that job satisfaction positively and significantly affects teacher performance (? = 32.641 + 0.686X1), while work discipline also exerts a positive and significant effect (? = 27.065 + 0.770X2). Furthermore, job satisfaction and work discipline jointly influence teacher performance (? = 25.832 + 0.266X1 + 0.509X2). These findings confirm that both individual and combined effects of job satisfaction and work discipline are essential in enhancing teacher performance. The results suggest that increasing teacher job satisfaction through fair compensation, career development, supportive leadership, and positive working conditions alongside fostering strong work discipline, can significantly improve the quality of teaching at Buddhist Sunday Schools. This study also highlights the importance of Buddhist ethical perspectives, which emphasize diligence, self-discipline, and commitment, in strengthening teacher professionalism.
