The Strategy Of Character Education In Globalization Era

Education can determine the formation of learners character personality and manners. Therefore education is considered to be the most responsible for juvenile delinquency among students like brawl drugs and free sex. Those deviances and crime indicate the low moral manner and character of the nation. responding that phenomenon the government through the Ministry of National Education made a new effort of establishing character education model to improve the character and manner of learners. This does not mean that previously there was no character education however todays government emphasizes systematic character education. In this regard teacher is the key factor of the successful implementation of character education because teacher makes direct interaction with learners. Teacher is required to prepare learning device and he then implement character education in the classroom. However most of teachers still do not understand how to prepare Lesson Plan of character education let alone to carry it out. On the other hand an education system that is supposed to be successful in establishing character building is the educational system in pesantren or madrasa. In principle implanting characters is more effective through habituation and good example that is more likely pesantren or boarding school that is directly supervised by the teacher.
