Pendidikan Karakter Siswa Melalui Tokoh Pandawa Lima Sebagai Upaya Penguatan Profil Pelajar Pancasila

Abstract

UNESCO recognizes Wayang as a Masterpiece of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity. This is the pride of all Indonesian people, so character education in Indonesia must be developed through wayang figures, one of which is the Pandawa Lima character. However, in reality the younger generation's understanding of wayang culture is still low, this is influenced by western culture that entered Indonesia, causing the younger generation to move away from traditional arts which include wayang. Currently, Indonesia's younger generation is encouraged to create characters that fit the profile of Pancasila students. This encourages research on the Pandawa character and its harmonization with the teaching of Indonesian characters in formal education settings. Through understanding the Pandawa character, it is hoped that efforts can be made at all levels of Indonesian formal and non-formal educational institutions to optimize character education which can produce competent and broad-minded future generations of the nation. Character as evidence of the construction of civilization for the life of the nation and state Indonesia.
