Implementation of Guidance and Counseling-Based Islamic Religious Education Learning for Student Character Development Toward Golden Indonesia 2045

Abstract

Character education is a fundamental foundation for preparing a morally grounded, resilient, and globally competitive generation toward Golden Indonesia 2045. However, rapid social, cultural, and technological changes have created challenges in fostering students’ character development, requiring innovative educational approaches. This study aimed to analyze the implementation of guidance and counseling-based Islamic Religious Education learning, identify the character values developed, and evaluate its effectiveness in supporting student character formation at a vocational high school. The study employed a mixed-methods approach with a convergent design. Data were collected through observations, interviews, documentation, and questionnaires administered to teachers and students. Qualitative data were analyzed using data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing, while quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. The findings revealed that guidance and counseling-based Islamic Religious Education learning was implemented through the integration of curricular and extracurricular activities using personal, religious, and humanistic approaches. The character values fostered included religiosity, discipline, responsibility, cooperation, tolerance, and nationalism. Quantitative findings showed that more than 93% of students perceived positive benefits from the program. These findings indicate that this learning model effectively strengthens student character and can serve as a sustainable educational strategy for realizing Golden Indonesia 2045.
