Desain Kemitraan Lingkungan Sekolah sebagai Upaya Penguatan Pendidikan Karakter Siswa Di Sekolah Menengah Atas Negeri 8 Kota Bandung

Abstract

This research aims to develop a School Environmental Partnership Design as an effort
to Strengthen Student Character Education at Bandung 8 State High School. The
implementation of this research is in accordance with Presidential Regulation (Perpres)
Number 87 of 2017 concerning Strengthening Character Education, which explains that
character education is one of the issues that must always be implemented in schools, the
main value in strengthening character must be reflected in the behavior of the school
community through collaboration between various parties within the education unit.
The tri-center educational partnership is a collaboration between educational units,
families and the wider community that is based on the principles of mutual cooperation,
mutual trust and a willingness to make sacrifices in building an educational ecosystem
that fosters character and a culture of student achievement. The approach used in this
study is a qualitative research method. The research design used is Participatory Action
Research (PAR). Data collected from this research was conducted through data
collection techniques such as observation, interviews and documentation studies. The
primary data source in this study consisted of 6 informants who were selected
according to the considerations required in the research. Based on the results of the
initial assessment, the implementation of the ongoing partnership program at SMAN 8
Bandung is still less efficient in terms of management. Therefore, it is necessary to
develop the process of implementing Partnership Design so that it is more efficiently
adapted to field needs. After going through the implementation phase, it shows that the
School Environmental Partnership Design that has been developed is considered to be
able to increase mutual understanding and active participation from all educational
units. This was marked by the results of the final reflection which showed enthusiasm
from all informants in understanding this School Environmental Partnership Design.
Technological development through the process of organizing, increasing capacity and
participation can have a positive impact and become a reference in making the
implementation of School Environmental Partnership Design more efficient.
