FOSTERING THE CHARACTER OF PANCASILA STUDENTS IN THE DIGITAL ERA
Kata Kunci:
Character, Pancasila Students, Digital EraAbstrak
The digital era has created a paradox in the world of education: on the one hand, it opens up unlimited access to learning, on the other hand presents complex challenges for the formation of students' character. This research aims to find out how to cultivate the character of Pancasila students. Using a qualitative method with a literature study approach, this aims to analyze strategies to cultivate the character of Pancasila Students that are contextual with the challenges of the digital era. The findings of the study reveal three main challenges: (1) information overload and digital literacy crisis, (2) degradation of social interaction and empathy skills, and (3) technology addiction that disrupts the learning process. The Pancasila Student Profile with its six dimensions has proven to be relevant as a solution framework, where each dimension functions as a specific antidote to digital challenges. The recommended character strengthening strategies include: digital project-based learning, comprehensive digital literacy education, optimization of the Pancasila Student Profile Strengthening Project (P5), digital role models of teachers and parents, and school-family-community tripartite synergy. The systematic and sustainable implementation of this strategy can turn digital challenges into opportunities to grow an Indonesian generation that is not only technologically capable but also has a strong Pancasila character, able to compete at the global level without losing the nation's identity.
