The Implementation of “Petal Flowers” Model For Peace Education in Developing Students Peace Culture in Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia

Peace education is the process of promoting the knowledge, skills, attitudes and values needed to bring about behavior changes that will enable children, youth and adults to prevent conflict and violence, both overt and structural; to resolve conflict peacefully, and to create the conditions conducive to peace, whether at an intrapersonal, intergroup, national or international level. (UNESCO, 2012). Conflict and violence in the campus social climate can have a negative impact on student learning. The current state, college campus climate is not always peaceful and safe, because conflicts often occur in schools and campus. Conflicts on campus can take many forms, either horizontally or vertically. The method used is research and development (R & D) adopted from Borg and Gall (1989), this is simplified in three steps: preliminary study, model development and model validation. The results showed that: (i) Peace education that took place at Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia (UPI) puts forward on cognitive, affective and psychomotor aspects. (ii) The design of petal flowers model for peace education applied in UPI can be seen from the learning process that happened in the lecture room. (iii) The implementation procedure of curriculum learning of petal flowers model is carried out gradually, in the first stage the students identify various threats of conflict within the campus, after knowing the threat of conflict then the next step is to sort out whether the conflict occurs between students with students or university students; (iv) Implementation of peace education at UPI in fostering a culture of peace, can be seen in terms of peaceful negative and positive peace.
