Pendidikan Berbasis Nilai untuk Penguatan Integritas dan Antikorupsi Siswa

Agung Nugraha Putra — 2025-05-08

Corruption remains a persistent problem undermining Indonesia’s development at both local and national levels. Addressing this issue requires a holistic strategy, one of which involves integrating values of integrity and anti-corruption into educational practices. Value-Based Education offers an effective preventive approach by providing students with a moral foundation through the internalization of ethical values within contextual and interactive learning experiences. This article employs a literature review method, identifying and analyzing previous research related to integrity, anti-corruption, and value-based education models. The findings highlight nine essential integrity and anti-corruption values: (1) honesty, (2) responsibility, (3) discipline, (4) independence, (5) hard work, (6) simplicity, (7) courage, (8) care, and (9) justice. These values are crucial in guiding students to consistently uphold ethical principles in their daily lives, fostering a culture of integrity and contributing to the creation of a corruption-free society. However, this study is limited by its conceptual nature, as it relies solely on literature review without empirical validation in educational settings. Future research is recommended to conduct experimental or classroom-based studies to assess the practical effectiveness of value-based education models in promoting anti-corruption behavior among students across different educational levels.

Pelajaran dari Apartheid: Membangun Kewarganegaraan yang Adil melalui Pemahaman Antropologis

Nur Berlian — 2025-05-26

This paper explores the link between anthropological views on race and citizenship politics, focusing on South Africa's Apartheid. Before the 1800s, non-European societies were often unfairly labeled "primitive," justifying European colonization and a "civilizing mission". Apartheid exemplifies a racial policy where a white minority controlled power, discriminating against the black majority. Understanding these historical anthropological perspectives is crucial for grasping their impact on citizenship and racism. The study uses a literature review, drawing from journals and research. Data from various sources are systematically organized by themes like Apartheid's history, South African citizenship, and racism. Qualitative data analysis is conducted through thematic interpretation, identifying patterns and narratives. Inductive qualitative methods are used to draw conclusions, demonstrating the enduring impact of apartheid policies on South African society and thought. This paper highlights the critical need to understand colonialism's and Apartheid's legacies for effective citizenship education, aiming to build just and inclusive societies.

Syarifah Tinggi Nalu — 2025-06-05

Indonesia’s diverse cultures preserve rich traditions and noble values, particularly in funeral customs, which vary across ethnic and religious communities but share common ceremonial elements. One such tradition is Pahamang, a funeral ritual practiced by the people of East Sumba. This study aims to describe the Pahamang process and examine the civic culture values embedded within it. Employing a qualitative approach with an ethnographic method, data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation. The data were analyzed through data condensation, display, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that Pahamang consists of three stages: preparation, implementation, and closing. While its core structure remains, notable differences have emerged between the ancient and modern practices. The tradition reflects several civic culture values, including responsibility, mutual cooperation, democracy, kinship, and solidarity, which serve to strengthen social ties within the community. This research offers valuable insights into how local wisdom and traditional rituals contribute to the development of civic values and community resilience in a rapidly modernizing society.

Rooseline Linda Octina — 2025-06-09

This article explores the strategic role of the Rumah Garuda Museum in promoting national identity education. National identity serves as a crucial foundation in fostering historical awareness, civic engagement, and social solidarity. Using a qualitative approach involving interviews, observations, and literature analysis, this study examines the learning model applied at the Rumah Garuda Museum. The findings reveal that the museum adopts a constructivist learning approach, emphasizing active visitor participation and reflective dialogue. Museum spaces are designed to encourage personal interpretation and meaning-making, allowing visitors to build individual understandings of national identity through curated historical narratives and exhibits. The museum also plays a role in fostering civic knowledge, civic skills, and civic culture. Civic knowledge is strengthened through exposure to historically significant collections, while civic skills are developed via critical discussions and interactive learning. Civic culture is nurtured by participatory experiences that build awareness of shared values, cultural diversity, and collective responsibility. The study concludes that the Rumah Garuda Museum effectively serves as both a reflective historical space and an educational platform that shapes informed, critical, and culturally rooted citizens. It highlights the importance of integrating civic education dimensions into informal learning spaces to support democratic citizenship in the digital era.

Kesadaran Hukum Masyarakat Kelurahan Budiman Terhadap Tindakan Penyebaran Berita Hoax di Media Sosial

Feni Annisa — 2025-06-20

This article examines the level of legal awareness among residents of Budiman Village, Jambi City, regarding the dissemination of hoax news on social media. Employing a descriptive qualitative method, data were collected through observations, interviews, and documentation. The analysis process involved data collection, reduction, presentation, and verification. The findings reveal that public legal awareness in Budiman Village remains generally low and unevenly distributed. Many residents lack understanding of legal regulations prohibiting the spread of misinformation under Indonesia’s Electronic Information and Transactions (ITE) Law. Moreover, awareness of the legal consequences for those who disseminate hoaxes is still limited. While some members of the community express moral support for law enforcement efforts, proactive measures to prevent the spread of hoaxes remain scarce. This situation is attributed to insufficient legal outreach, limited access to accurate information, and a lack of public comprehension about digital legal responsibilities. The study underscores the urgent need for continuous and widespread legal education initiatives to foster a more active, responsible, and law-conscious digital society.

Penggunaan Media Belajar Ebook Berbasis Proyek pada Pembelajaran Pendidikan Kewarganegaraan

Dian Nastiti — 2025-06-24

This study aims to design and validate a project-based e-book as a learning medium for civic education courses. Employing a Research and Development (R&D) methodology, the research was conducted through ten stages: identifying problems, collecting data, designing the product, validating the design, revising, conducting initial testing, further revisions, field testing, final revisions, and preparation for wider implementation. The research involved students from the Karawitan Music Study Program at the Indonesian Institute of the Arts (ISI) Surakarta. Data collection utilized questionnaires, validation instruments, as well as test and non-test techniques. The results showed that the developed e-book obtained a validity score of 92% from expert validators, classifying it as highly valid. Additionally, effectiveness testing demonstrated that 96% of students successfully completed the learning assessment, confirming the e-book’s high effectiveness as a learning medium. E-books offer a flexible, accessible, and interactive platform for delivering instructional content, particularly in higher education settings, where independent learning and digital resources are increasingly prioritized. The use of project-based e-books can also enhance student engagement and improve critical understanding of civic concepts through contextualized activities. However, this study is limited in scope, having been conducted solely at ISI Surakarta with a relatively small and homogeneous sample. Future research should involve broader participant groups across multiple universities and disciplines to evaluate the e-book’s effectiveness in more diverse academic contexts.
