Early childhood education (ECD) is the level of education prior to primary education, which is a development effort aimed at children from birth to the age of six years through the provision of educational stimulation to assist the growth and development of mind and body so that children have the readiness to enter further education, which was held in formal, non-formal, and informal.

Early childhood education is a form of education that focuses on laying the foundation toward the growth and physical development (fine and gross motor coordination), intellect (the intellect, creativity, emotional intelligence, spiritual intelligence), socio-emotional (attitude and behavior and religious) language and communication, according to the uniqueness and developmental stages through which early childhood.

There are two purpose of the early childhood education that is:

The main purpose: to create a quality of Indonesian children, the children grow and develop in accordance with the level of development that has an optimal readiness in entering basic education and through life in adulthood. Comorbid purpose: to help prepare children achieve learning readiness (academic) at the school.

The range of early childhood according to Article 28 of the Education Law No.20/2003 paragraph 1 is 0-6 years. Meanwhile, according to the science of early childhood and family studies its implementation in some countries, early childhood implemented since the age of 0-8 years.

Scope of Early Childhood Education
Infant (0-1 years)
Toddler (2-3 years)
Preschool / Kindergarten children (3-6 years)
Early Primary School (SD First Class) (6-8 years)

Importance of Early Childhood Education

Education is an important asset for the advancement of the nation, therefore, every citizen should and must receive additional education, good early childhood education, elementary education, secondary education or higher. In the field of education a child from birth requires appropriate services in meeting the educational needs along with understanding of the characteristics of children according to the growth and development will greatly assist in customizing the learning process for children by age, needs and conditions of each, both intellectually, emotionally and social.

Before speaking further, what is early childhood education? Early childhood education (ECD) is the level of education prior to primary education, which is a development effort aimed bagianak from birth until the age of six years through the provision of educational stimulation to assist the growth and development of mind and body so that children have the readiness to enter school Further, organized in formal, non-formal, and informal.

Why is early childhood education so important?

Based on the research results about 50% of adult intelligence kapabilitaas have occurred when the child was 4, 8 0% there has been a rapid development of the brain tissue when the child is 8 years old and peaked when the child was 18 years old, and after it was done though improved nutrition will have no effect on cognitive development.

This means that the development that occurs within the first 4 years as great as the developments in the next 14-year period. So that this period is a critical period for children, which were obtained during the period development is very influential on the development of the next period to adulthood. While this golden age only comes once, so that means all will be lost if the missed chances.

According to Byrnes, early childhood education would give children prepare to face the days ahead, the closest is the face of the school. "Currently, some kindergartens have asked children who want to enroll students there are able to read and count. In the kindergarten had already started to be taught social skills and problem solving. Because of the abilities that was to be established at an early age, "said Byrnes.

Furthermore, according to Byrnes, that early childhood education is important, because in the age of the child is the best form of education. At this age children should form themselves to face the school readiness and future. The best investment you can give to children is to prepare their education at an early age.
There are two purposes why it needs to be held early childhood education, namely:

The main purpose: to create quality children, the children grow and develop in accordance with the level of development that has an optimal readiness in entering basic education and through life in adulthood.
Comorbid purpose: to help prepare children achieve learning readiness (academic) at the school.

In short, early childhood education is a form of education that focuses on laying the foundation toward the growth and physical development (fine and gross motor coordination), intellect (the intellect, creativity, emotional intelligence, spiritual intelligence), socio-emotional (attitude and behavior and religion) language and communication, according to the uniqueness and developmental stages through which early childhood.

What is the difference children who received early childhood education at a quality institution with children who did not receive early childhood education?

According to Byrnes (Winning the title of Woman of the Year on the Vitasoy Australia) in early childhood education institutions are good, children will learn to be an independent person, a strong social, confident, has a great curiosity, can take an idea, develop ideas, go to another school and ready to learn, quick to adapt, and a passion for learning.

Character Formation Processes in Children

Character can not be established by means of easy and inexpensive. With experienced trials and suffering soul character strengthened, vision cleared, and success achieved ~ Helen Keller

One day a boy was watching a cocoon, eh found that it contained a butterfly struggling to break away from the chrysalis. It seems so difficult, then the boy is feeling sorry for the butterflies, and thinking of ways to help the butterfly to get out easily. Finally the boy had found the idea and immediately took the scissors and cut the cocoon to help the butterfly that can get out there dr. How happy and relieved the boy tersebut.Tetapi what happened? The butterflies are able to get out of there. But the butterfly can not fly, can only crawl. What is this?

Apparently for a butterfly that is struggling from the cocoon, which at the time he mustered all his strength, there is a liquid that flows within the body strong throughout her body that makes her wings can expand so that he can fly, but because there is no struggle hence can not inflate its wings so that it become a butterfly that can only crawl.

That is a brief portrait of the formation of character, would seem clearly to understand example of the butterfly. Often parents and teachers, will not forget this. It could be they do not want to be bothered, or compassion in children. Sometimes Good Intention or our good intentions are not necessarily a good thing. Just like when we teach our children. Sometimes we often help them out of pity or compassion, but was in fact making them self-reliant. Make undeveloped potential in him. Spay creativity, because we can not bear to see them having trouble, actually if they got through it just to be strong and character.

There is one anecdote that I often convey to my colleagues, or participants of the seminar. Where to eat instant noodles, tasty noodles fried with seafood? Generally, those who like to know if the noodles fried seafood noodles so much better than the fried instant noodles that can only be cooked no less than 3 minutes. What distinguishes tasty noodle dishes or absence of these? The process!

Similarly to the formation of the character of a child, it takes time and commitment from parents and schools or teachers (if prioritize this) to educate children to be individual in character. It takes effort, time and love of the environment which is where he grew, herein should not be mistaken for love pampering. If we obey this process, the impact is not all of our children, we also have a positive impact to the least impatient character, tolerance, able to understand the issue from the perspective of different disciplines and have integrity (words and actions alike) reflected on ourselves as parents or teachers. Remarkably, this process is doing a good job for parents, teachers and children if we are committed to the process of the formation of character.

At the beginning of the formation of the character of many parents and teachers ask about how to discipline children. There are 6 disciplined process that we share through free ebook 6 Ways to Discipline Children, for those of you who do not already have this ebook please free download here.

Now, is disciplined enough? How is the process of forming another character? On August 6, 2012, we will publish a book 7 Days Shaping Character Kids. In this book will reveal the things that are very rarely known by parents and teachers on how to educate children to grow up happy and character. Besides, not only the children, but this book also provides guidance for parents and teachers to consciously shape their character independently.

Return to the formation of character, remember everything needed process. Want to be ugly also need a process. Delinquents were also children who know discipline. Do not believe? He was disciplined for being naughty. He did not want to shower on time, getting up early is always late, always consistent to not do the work and shall not be used in full uniform.

There is one key to inculcate the habit, there is a law and the law called the law of 21 days, in the formation of character is closely related to creating positive new habits. And habits of mind will be firmly entrenched in humans after repeated daily for 21 days. For example, you get used to kids after getting out of bed to clean the bed, you might be always alert and watching with affection (mandatory, with affection) for 21 days. But after the expiration of 21 days then the habit will be formed automatically. Well, now what positive habits you want to impart to the children, spouse and yourself? You already know how to do and just do it. Success in character constantly updated.

The Importance of Understanding the Emotional Needs Children

In the previous section we have learned that children and adolescents are more controlled by their emotions rather than rational and logical thinking. Emotions may explain why children and adolescents behave that way, including the self-destructive behavior. So if we want to motivate them, we should first understand the emotions that control them and use them to guide the behavior and thinking more deceptive.


Here is the third child's emotional needs:

1. The need to feel SAFE
One of the strongest needs required soerang child is feeling safe. Safe in themselves and their environment. Teenagers seek security by joining with a group of "gang" or group of their peers, engage social order among them, and imitate his behavior.

A psychologist Dr. Gary Chapman, in his "five languages ​​of love" to say we all have a psychological love tank to be filled, more precisely if the child then the parents should fill. Children love tank is full then he would like to himself, quiet and felt safe. This can be interpreted as a happy child and had "inner" motivation.

Do we need to learn and know the love tank? It is necessary, I often recommend the teachers and parents to learn the language of love and find their son, herself and her partner. This I will discuss in the next article).

For example, motivated by the love of a mother scolding her son who was playing computer. "Stop maen computer and learn now" then what is there to mind the child? Maybe "Hmpf ... She did not love me, and want to control me and preoccupation" Well, son take it as a negative thing, communication is usually destroys the love at the root of the problems parents and children and teachers.

"Loved the child is not the same as the child feel loved"

What causes the need for security is not met?
• Comparing children with relatives or others
When we say "why can not you keep the room as your sister", "why can not you write neatly Rudi". Will grow up feeling rejected, not accepted, they will think "daddy / mommy is happier with ..." it fosters an attitude of love with himself and wanted to be someone else. They feel safe to be someone else, not to feel safe and comfortable being herself.

• Criticize and fault finding
When we say: "you little fool, what's wrong with you? Why can not you do anything right? "
Certainly, will lead to feelings of resentment, no sense of safety within the home (if this happens often at home).

• Physical violence and verbal
I think no need to explain anymore, it's been a lot of us have encountered in newspapers and on television news, and the dangers or consequences too often we encounter in the media. If there is no security in the home, then the child will seek shelter to meet their security in all the wrong places. And the kids will do anything to get this security, seeking attention in the wrong way.


2. The need for recognition (feeling important) and accepted or loved

Rarely do parents make their children feel important and recognized at home. Instead many parents who make their children feel small and insignificant with the threat: "better do your homework now, or ..."

What is in the mind of the child if treated like that? We parents would be happy if kids do the things we command, but there are those young minds are lost by doing what they're told parents that way. So many children who delayed or did not do what was assigned parents (even though the threat) to meet the emotional needs for recognition.

A stern warning to parents: If your child does not feel loved and accepted by their parents, they will be compelled to look in all the wrong places.

The desire of a child to be recognized and to be loved is so strong, that they will do anything to get it. If they do not get the recognition it the right way it will find the wrong way and the wrong place. This need has prompted some children and teens to use a tattoo, another child, joined the gang of bullies, with flashy colors dyed hair, acting like a clown and comedian. It is generally troublesome themselves, but for the sake of gaining recognition and acceptable (to get attention).

There are extreme cases on 16 April 2007, a student of the U.S. Virginia Tech, Cho Seng-hui. Shot and killed 32 students. What drives this behavior, so he did something so incredible crazy? He did just as it needs recognition and a sense of importance so great, but not fulfilled by those who ignored and insulted. It forced him out of the world of logic and claimed the lives of others as well as himself, in his mind he thinks it's better to die with the name of the living is not bad as anyone.


3. The need to control (feeling or desire for self-control)

As the growth of children, while search for identity and independence while learning to build from the parent. This process creates an emotional need to be free and independent.

So that's why kids do not want to be dictated to what to do. They are not "slang" to listen to parents. By listening to the advice of their parents as being treated like a child. This explains why the children listen to their friends and uncle or aunt (uncle or aunt) who was younger than his own parents.

Parents are smart, will not give up for this. How do I provide direction and that the child's parents want to hear? Use of communication that does not mean forcing a child to advice us. Make it as if they study and work hard for themselves and not for us. they will be more excited and motivated that way. And most importantly, our kids love the tank meets every day and make sure children are always full when I wake up wake up and before bed. That way the child knows who understand and love, and to whom he will come on when needed someone to listen, that we are his parents.

Take advantage of this information, recognize the emotional needs of our children. Be sensitive to where when children need acceptance, the need to control things, and need to be safe. Use words that are appropriate to meet those needs, the following tips and how to meet a child's basic emotional needs:

1. Sense of security:
• Quiet safe with you dear papa, mama will accompany you, hey ... papa here will keep you dear

2. Sense of acceptance or a loved one:
• Make a habit of looking into the eyes when talking to the child, make eye contact is flat or "eye love"
• Tap the shoulder while talking or any part origin polite, to show that we are together and close to the child
• Keep abreast (stand in line with the child or kneel)
• Say: whatever happens papa / mama still love you, you're still champ papa / mama, papa eyes / mama you're the most beautiful

3. The need to control:
• If possible, when you see your child needs to do something yourself then please allow
• Actually it is a learning process for himself and his future will be very useful today
• Price of the child will be higher, if we are diligent to give control to the child, because the child was able to operate without the help (of course, a safe activity at the discretion of the parent)
• Take special time to move and control, and watched with affection, ie children aged 2-3 years'm eating alone, going to school alone, and others

Character Strength for the Future Children

I saw one of his students in the neighborhood where I live is very studious. So much so, he could not take the time to play with his peers. Demands that so many schools have made it to linger in the room to transfer the information in the book into the brain or memory. I am very sorry for the students. Why? On the one hand, the student is honed cognitive ability. But on the other hand, he had a lameness or paralysis of the emotional (affective). Life is like riding a bike, it was important to maintain balance. If the balance is not maintained then it will fall.

Seeing these students, I suggest to parents to help set the time, so he is not stuck in the room, while his friends were busy playing. What he did not realize, that the play was also part of the learning process.


As we know, human beings actually have creativity, feeling and intention. Therefore, when only creativity (IQ) are sharpened, then there is an imbalance. Then what happens? Obviously, the effect of the pattern of education which only focuses on creativity (cognitive / IQ) alone and ignore the feeling (affective / EQ) and intention (action) will be felt and seen when the child grows up. The child will be paralyzed social. Why do I say socially crippled? Social Paralyzed occurs when the child is not able to establish relationships in their social environment. In fact, in every association in the community, both socially at work, social organizations, socially at school and others definitely need to build relationships and collaborate with others. Could ultimately hinder the development of her potential.

Is it not our basic needs as human beings to work together. By working together, we actually open up many opportunities to learn many things. That way we can increase the opportunity to explore ourselves. Here lies the importance of relationships and social interactions.


First, parents are directing their children to hone his IQ. Therefore, a high IQ is defined as the higher the level of intelligence (and the recipe said to be successful if a high IQ). However, a new consciousness that eventually emerged was other intelligence that can not be ignored, namely emotional intelligence.

The balance between cognitive intelligence (knowledge), feelings (affective) and action (action) will build on the strength of good character himself. The characters themselves are very important role. Therefore, the character itself is a way of thinking and behavior that is typical of individuals to live and work with its surroundings.

Sometimes, the character of a person feels out of balance. There are people who have brilliant ideas but are unable to cooperate with teamworknya. It shows the person has a good IQ intelligence emotional intelligence was bad. There are also people who have the brains, he's also good, but lazy to work. It indicates the action is weaker than his IQ and EQ.

The characters themselves will be more powerful if all three aspects are met. The characters themselves are good this will determine the decision process, behavior and way of thinking. That will ultimately determine our success. See, a Nelson Mandela won sympathy with the idea of ​​peace. Mother Teresa shook the world with his love and concern for each other. Bung Karno with ideas, tenacity and intelligence still feels for us Indonesian people who have gone through years of the millennium.

All of it is a manifestation of the strength of character they have. This confirms that a person's character determines individual success. And according to the study, just 80 percent of a person's success is determined by their emotional intelligence, while intelligence intelegensianya got a 20 percent share.


Building a Character Strength

In every individual has the character of each. The neighborhood has an important role in the formation of character. Our character, has an important role in the life process. Therefore, the character of controlling our thoughts and behavior, which of course determines the success, the way we live, grabbed obsession and problem solving.

Actually, each one of us has a distinctive character. And that character quirk is the strength of our character. Therefore, the distinctiveness or uniqueness is what separates us from other individuals. The entertainers will spread the spirit, the regulator will manage the organization. Those who are wise and do not like conflict can be a peacemaker. It all is strength of character. And, each character will be needed in any society, whether social work, or community organization.

Remember! Strength of character to be built from scratch. Build strength of character can be done through either character education in the school formal, non-formal or as families and communities. Character education is given through the planting of character values. It can be knowledge, awareness or willingness and action to implement those values. Output character education will be seen in the creation of good relations to Almighty God, ourselves, others, the environment, the public and others.

Character education is not only theoretically given at school, but also need to be applied in everyday life. So it will become a habit. Habits are proof that the education provided has been pervasive in a person. When eating to be polite, when going to bed to read a prayer, when out of the house to say goodbye, perseverance and spirit obsession and realize aspirations, to be honest, be kind to animals and plants, do not litter and other places.

Build strength character done by involving all elements. Therefore, each element will have an effect in the formation of individual character. A child will imitate and identify what is around him. Positive role models will form a positive character role models and instead will form keprbadian negative and negative characters. Therefore, every element of the environment should be built in a positive way, so that the child's character is formed in a positive way as well.

Then how to build strength of character is that? Strength of character will be formed by itself if there is support and encouragement from the surrounding environment. Imagine a stick, will not have the power to dispel waste. However, if it is supported by hundreds of stick, others will form a force to clean up the yard. So is the character will be stronger when supported by the environment. The role of the family, the school, the community is very dominant in supporting and building strength of character.

Strong character will ultimately contribute optimally in every social interaction. Thus, individuals with strong character-it would contribute both morally or spiritually-that are constructive for the surroundings.

Importance of Environmental Building Character

Lots of emails that came in and asked what the key to success Character Education. Well, this time we will discuss the key, we will discuss the importance of an environment that is characteristic for the success of Character Education. You agree that in order to achieve quality education and maximum characters, starting with building an environment characterized?

Well, before we review, I've heard an old adage says: if we're friends with the seller of perfumes, then we will come scented. While friends with the fishmonger, then we will go amis. Let us reflect for a moment. Actually, the phrase is a great fit describe the role of the environment in our lives. Environment largely determines the formation of the character of a person. Positive environment can shape us into positive personal character, otherwise the negative and unhealthy can form a negative personal anyway. The neighborhood has a very important role in building individual characters in it.

A little boy who used to say dirty, of course he copied from the surroundings. You do not have far to look for the cause of the child is fond of saying dirty. Of course it is a result of mimicking environment. To fix this, you better tackle the problem from the source. To cope with the disease, jangannya you wait for one of your family members sick and then treat it. Are not you better begin to manage a healthy lifestyle, so that the disease will not invade and infect you. This is what I mean by addressing the problem at the source.

Then, if the source of the problem our children say dirty? I am sure, you definitely will govern your kids to stop saying dirty, and if your child back to repeat and non-compliance with the order, you will hit it. However, your child actually intensified because he was not given the right to govern themselves. You will not be easy to ask the boy who used to say dirty to stop saying, while others also do the same. To that end, the point of the solution is to create a healthy environment for children and individuals who live in it.


Environment characterized is important for development of the individual. Environment that is characterized by the creation of an environment that supports the realization of values ​​in the lives of the characters, a case of the characters love of God and all His creation, independence and responsibility, honesty / trust, diplomatic, respectful and polite, generous, like mutual assistance, mutual aid / cooperation and others. Character is not only at the stage of recognition and understanding of the course, but it becomes a habit in their daily lives.

Perhaps in your mind imagine how difficult it is to form the character. All of that should start from self be next in the family. Self must be addressed first before fixing others. Get used to build a positive mindset, make good habits, build self unyielding character and so on. In everyday life in our family to get used to apply those values. For example, used to be honest and open to children, giving children the opportunity to decide the material found in home decor, invite children to negotiate about the tutoring school, and invite children to share that role in completing household chores. It's part of the process of building a child's character. Salinglah mutual help among family members. Familiarize children explore themselves. Giving children the opportunity to make decisions for themselves. It is a democratic process in the family.

Kebiaasaan such positive practices will eventually be passed by the child in the larger social environment, ie in schools and communities. The family is the first institution where children build character. We as parents should apply the upbringing and education of healthy and well in the family. That way, our kids have embedded personal personality will be spreading the positive character of the environment. At school, character education should also be realized in each of the learning process, such as teaching methods, curriculum, assessment, and others.

Do you ever give your children the opportunity to take the time to play? Or encourage your child to pursue their talents and interests they have. Actually the chance to hang out with peers is the character development of children. By mingling, children will learn to understand themselves and others. Thus he will learn how to build relationships with people and the environment.


In the school environment the students actually have a container for personal development and character building themselves through extracurricular activities. Extracurricular education is a means to build a sense of responsibility, social skills and interaction, tolerance, cooperation and others.

However, in line with the demands of school with a variety of subjects and training for the National Examination has taken the time to develop them. Do you include only parents who encourage their children to continue to learn and to ignore its interests and hobbies? If so, hurry-hurry to change your perspective and give opportunities for children to share their time learning and playing.

The fact that a person's success is not only determined by the performance of the school should be aware of. It is true that the ability to establish relationships and emotional intelligence largely determines the process of self-improvement and success.

If so, let us create the character. Thus, the children of our future generations will be the character that does not give up when faced tantangn in his life. And they will always optimistic of success with stock values ​​that have been embedded in an environment characterized it.

Getting Started In Character Education

Commitment is the first step if you want to have a good character, but what kind of commitment it takes to succeed in character education? That is the discipline of education character itself. This time we will discuss from the point of view of the school.

One time I had a chance to present about character education and its impact on teachers and school employees. My colleague accidentally setting in order to be coherent with the school environment education issues that will be echoed by the character of the school. When I explained about the school rules and classroom rules, the face looks less comfortable, and the response was less than enthusiastic, as well as face a heavy burden to address the implementation of character education.

And in the middle of my show to explain that the school does not need to rush into a major reshuffle in the rules of the school. I really understand the burden of teachers in teaching and administrative activities, perform an important step by step in the implementation of existing commitments and keep discipline as a driving force of character education itself, that's the key. Discipline, discipline and discipline.

Overview I described the discipline of people living in Indonesia with two seasons, different countries with four seasons of life. Toughness, fighting spirit and initiative are also different. We in Indonesia is a challenge in its natural territory quite a bit compared to those living in the four seasons. Since one of the factors that we need to learn more discipline for a better life. Discipline is very close to success, even discipline in one package with no success. Whatever success is to be achieved in the discipline is the basis. Even the size of the discipline has been formulated in detail by Malcolm Gladwell in his book outlier, that it took 10,000 hours to become a master of discipline in any field. Singers, athletes, business professionals who have successfully passed the 10,000 hours. And you know anyone who has become a master in the art is not it? Call it, Ruth sahayana, Taufik hidayat, Agnes Monica, Purwacaraka, Juna, Rifat Sungkar, Chairul, Hermawan Kertajaya and still a lot of characters that can be called masters in their respective fields.

Character education likely will never actually touched when there is only limited understanding of the character or nature of information only without any action. Today in print, electronic and internet media much preaching about buying and selling a key test cases, cheating cheating, plagiarism, and even cases of crimes committed by the student, it all shows that the realizable value of the real character of the nation did not materialize. This phenomenon occurs due to the low quality of education in Indonesia.

Factors affecting among other things:
  1. Lack of infrastructure
  2. The low quality of teachers
  3. Lack of education equity opportunities
  4. The low relevance of education to the needs of
  5. Vision and morality educators and students of low
  6. The high cost of education It is a serious problem in this country

Higher education budget is no guarantee of good infrastructure and the cost of education affordable, the cause is clear morality that emphasizes community groups, private kepetingan and got the exact circumstances.

The six barriers can only be lost if the noble values ​​and character education actually realized. To get maximum results related to the above problems would need a breakthrough in the world of education to create a character and a young high berprestas. To achieve this it is necessary innovation and the development of value discipline and commitment from each school in order to study the character can move on. The impact of character education can build an individual to identify himself and was able to set a goal of education.

Figures successor Aligarh movement

Ahmad Khan devoted himself to the renewal through MAOC for about two decades. Further ideas are developed and distributed by students and supporters. Thus the Aligarh movement is still growing, even though he was dead. Aligarh Movement was led in turns by the leaders who fight for the Muslims of India. Among these are:


1. Sayyid Mahdi Ali (Nawab Muhsin al-Mulk) (1837-1907).

After Sayyid Ahmad Khan's death, then Aligarh leadership moved into the hands of Sayyid Mahdi Ali, known by the name of Nawab Muhsin al-Mulk (1837-1907). At first he was an employee Tifluk States of India, then a magnifying Hyderabad. He's never been to the UK for the purposes of the Government of Hyderabad. In 1863 he became acquainted with Sayyid Ahmad Khan and then tied a rope between a close friendship. He was much rnenulis article Tahzib Al Akhlaq and also in magazines published MAOC He moved to Aligarh and settled there starting in 1893. In 1897 he menggantikankan Sayyid Ahmad Khan's position in MAOC He has a great service in spreading the ideas of Sayyid Ahmad Khan is doing through Muhammedan Educational Conference.

Services in advancing MAOC seen as more number of students the institution, college finances improved, the administration is also well organized and the development of physical infrastructure development did not escape his attention. In the matter of religious Nawab Muhsin al-Mulk with opposing dogmatic ideas on ulama 'hold classic and new ijtihad. But in the face of scholars' classic he softer than Sayyid Ahmad Khan.

Muhsin al-Mulk succeeded in making India clerical faction change a hard stance against the Aligarh Movement. As we know that the scholars of Deoband that produce a lot of traditional Indian scholars, having an uncooperative attitude of the British, was Sayyid Ahmad Khan is famous for its pro-British stance. So between MAOC there are differences not only in religious matters but also on political attitudes. Muhsin al-Mulk not only brought the clerics near Aligarh, furthermore he was able to pull some political opponents of the founders of the university. He was the most peace-loving, but he also faced the Hindu-Urdu controversy that has existed since the late Sayyid Ahmad life.


2. Viqar al-Mulk (1841 1917)

Another influential figure was Viqar al-Mulk (1841 1917). Young since he has been a helper and followers of Sayyid Ahmad Khan. In 1907 he replaced Nawab Muhsin al-Mulk in leadership MAOC This time that the major changes in the university administration Aligarh, even the political wisdom of Muslims of India. Viqar al-Mulk named Mushtaq Hussain who was born 1841, in Moradabad District, United Pravinces. He is co-Sayyid Ahmad Khan and Muhsin al-Mulk. Together with Muhsin al-Mulk he always worked together in Aligarh administrative issues. During this Viqar Viqar conflict between al-Mulk with Mr. Archbold who became director of MAOC at that time. In this conflict Governor contiguous area Archbold Viqar al-Mulk was supported by the Agha Khan and Amir Ali and later by the Islamic society outside. Archbold eventually forced to resign. British rule in MAOC of since it began to decrease.

Viqar al-Mulk as a scholar and handle tough stance toward religion, religious life MAOC strengthening. Implementation of worship, especially prayer and fasting tightened supervision. Pass the exam, a requirement for religion to go up a level. The things mentioned above make MAOC become more popular among Indian scholars.


3. Altaf Hussain Hali (1837-1914).

Another famous Indian figures as a disseminator of ideas renewal Sayyid Ahmad Khan was Altaf Husain Hali (1837 1914). He has worked as a translator at the British Government offices in Lahore, but later moved to Delhi. This is where he became acquainted with Sayyid Ahmad Khan and the two became good friends. Hali-known as a poet, but he also wrote essays essay for Tahzib al-Akhlaq. At the request of Sayyid Ahmad Khan, he wrote a poem about the Islamic civilization in the Classical Era. Come out in 1879 what is known as the Musaddas.

Poetry, among others, also contains ideas Aligarh. Musaddas great influence on the Islamic ummah India, so it is said that in addition to MAOC and Muhammedan Educational Conference, Musaddas who has great merit in the popularizing Gerakah Aligarh. Against the education of women he sees the same parallels with men. Therefore, he is more progressive than Sayyid Ahmad Khan who considers that the time women do not need an education as men.


4. Muhammad Shibli Nu'mani

Muhammad Shibli Nu'mani (1857 1914) was appointed in 1883 as Assistant Professor of Arabic at Aligarh. He has a traditional Madrasah education and never went to Mecca and Medina to deepen his knowledge of Islam. When in MAOC, he met with new ideas put forward by the Aligarh Movement and was attracted to her. Madrasa education background, made him not have a liberal attitude Sayyid Ahmad Khan. But he does not oppose the use of reason in matters of religion; studying western philosophy is not haram. Scholars of classical antiquity studied and mastered many philosophies. Modern thought in the form of moderate acceptability.

Shibli Nu'mani no longer in the service at Aligarh and in the end he left it, and then went to Lucknow to lead college Nadwat al-Ulama (which he founded in 1894). Modern thought espoused moderate brings changes to these colleges.

Realizing the Character Education Qualified

At the level of theory, character education is very promising for answering the question of education in Indonesia. However, the level of practice, there is often bias in its application. But as an effort, character education must be a program that is measurable accomplishments. Talk about measurement means there should be measuring tool, measuring instrument if mathematics education is clear, if you value above exam strandard graduation meant he could. Well, what about character education?

If given about the character of the education problem is not actually measure the real situation. For example, if you meet people who are lost in the middle of the road and do not have the money to continue perjalananya what you do? To test scores good results then the answer is to help people, either giving money or take her to the destination. My question is, if this is really happening is going to happen as theory? As exam answers? So what gauge of character education? Of observation, along with the desired behavioral indicators. For example, observing a student in class for a particular subject, of course, the student does not know when he's in the observation. Well, we can define an indicator if he has good behavior when the teacher explained, suppose listen carefully, no fuss and a complete record. Easy is not it? And this should be compared with a number of situations, not just in the classroom alone. There are many ways to measure this, use your creativity and humility to learn more leverage so that this measurement is perfect.

Form the character of students is not an easy and quick effort. It requires continuous efforts and deep reflection to create a series of Moral Choice (moral judgment) to be followed up with concrete action, making it practical and reflective. Needed some time to make those custom (habit) and form the character or nature of a person. According to Helen Keller (deaf-blind man first graduating cum laude from Radcliffe College in 1904) "Character can not be develop in ease and quite. Only through experience of trial and Suffering can the soul be strengthened, vision cleared, ambition inspired, and success Achieved ".

Besides launching character education course is intended to be one of the answers to the various problems facing the nation that is currently widely seen, heard and felt, where many problems arise in identifying the source of the failure of education in injecting moral values ​​to students. This is certainly very appropriate, because the purpose of education is not only the birth of intelligent beings, but also creates a strong character man. As said Dr. Martin Luther King, that "intelligence plus character that is the goal of true education" (intelligence character is the ultimate goal of true education).

Many things can be done to realize the character education in schools. The concept of character is not quite serve as a point in the syllabus and plan the implementation of learning in schools, but it should be more than that, run and practiced. Begin by learning to obey the school rules, and enforce it in the discipline. Schools should make character education as a value system that thrive in school embodied in examples and real appeal exhibited by teachers and school staff in the daily activities at school.

On the other hand, character education is an effort that must involve all stakeholders in education, whether the family, the school and the school environment and the wider community. Therefore, the first step you need to do is to rebuild education partnerships and networks that seem to be breaking down among the three stakeholders in the school nearest the teachers, families and communities. Establishment and character education is not going to work for an educational environment among stakeholders there is no continuity and harmony. Thus, households and families as the formation and character education first and foremost must be improved which is further supported by the environment and learning conditions in schools that reinforce the cycle of creation. In addition, not least the importance of education in society. Communities also greatly affect the character and disposition of a person. Public environment greatly affects the success of planting ethical values, aesthetic to the formation of character. According Qurais Shihab (1996; 321), social situation with the value system espoused, influence the attitudes and perspectives of society as a whole. If the system of values ​​and their view is limited to the present and here, the efforts and ambitions are limited to the same thing.

Want to achieve a quality character education? So the key is described above, there is a true gauge so that no evaluation and know what needs fixing, there are three essential components (teachers, families and communities) in order merelaisasikan character education actually takes place not only discourse without action. Remember, character education through school, not merely the learning of knowledge per se, but more than that, the cultivation of moral, ethical values, aesthetic, noble manners. And the most important is the practice after the information given and done with school discipline by each element.

Ways to Grow Spirit of Learning In Children

Well, this is a theme that often eagerly awaited by parents and often many parents complained. "Why does my child enjoy learning guns, maen wrote all day," complained one mother who attended diseminar me. The reader, you believe that our true human life is a learner? But we often leave an unpleasant treatment when children learn (unconsciously) even before we were probably given the wrong stimulation so that learning is not fun.

For example, when we are infants and children aged 1 year. He wanted to include all the stuff that he can hold in his mouth, right? Well most people do when it is said "uh ... it was gross, guns should not" pulling the goods. Actually this is the basic behavior when a child is learning. Then when he began to walk, started wanting to know more about the environment, the more restrictions issued by parents or caregivers. Perhaps because tired babysitting all day, so many restrictions issued. And this is their desire to know (learn) more, filling the database in his brain that is empty and needs to be filled.

As I began to speak, asking this and that. "It's what? Why? "Accepted answer" LHA had been asked, ask again the basic chatty "as possible when it is tired caregivers and parents while also keeping so lazy and tired to give an explanation and this is a learning process of a child. There's new stuff at home and the children want to hold it or to know more closely, we parents and guardians keep the goods from him, saying later damaged by expensive goods.

From the example above where this piece was a real experience and some of my clients, who make children lazy learning?

Next there was an 8 year old boy, just call Aji. Her parents complained that their children do not like to study and has received a warning from the teacher if there is no change in the attitude then most likely Aji grade. At first, I'm sure Aji is a child prodigy. For a moment I asked about her favorite hobby and while playing, I instantly knew this amazing kid. Because after I asked about his hobby apparently football and his love of the team is Arsenal (Premier League). And Aji, memorized entire Arsenal first team and reserves, following his assistant coaches and players as well as the number back, and the players birthday goal scorer and assists list (giving feedback) and point and order the league standings. Crazy, unbelievable! (In my heart) Guns wrong at the hardware (brain), but the problem is the same software.

One person of the same child, if his brain is not functioning at school to learn lessons (arithmetic, memorization) but memorized all Arsenal players. What a stupid kid? Surely you agree with me, the answer is no. This kid is unbelievable clever. It's just one treatment so that he is lazy and does not like to learn.

So what I did to change in order to be good and the software is so easy to make children learn? I fixed that parents first, because for the child's age Aji, if there is a problem in his life means parents will help to overcome the problem of the child. I was taught how to communicate with the child and the nature of the child's mind, and the importance of love menomor unite in educating children, all of whom will be very long if I explain here.

Next are tips on how to order, our children to be diligent and easy to learn and a school.

1. When home from school asking "O dear, what a fun day at school?" Automatic child's brain will find fun things in school and this will indirectly tell the child that school is a fun place.

2. When children sleep (Hypnosleep), saying "the more a day, learning more fun", "as well as playing, learning is also great fun," "easy for you to learn (math, memorization, etc.)".

3. Explain the benefits of the lessons being learned (according to the child's interests) eg by studying multiplication, then later during the holidays to the next grade or you'll be able to calculate how much things would you buy in Singapore and you can compare prices in Indonesia. If you dominate the conversation in English and you will be very easy to communicate with coaches soccer balls are from Thailand.

4. Ask the tutor lessons (if any), often say that our kids are great kids and outstanding. Sincere praise and pumping his spirit is far more important than the techniques taught math and memorization fast. Enlist the help of the people around, including teachers, to improve the self-esteem of our children.

5. When our children were little and still love to read fairy tales, fairy tales read to him assuming the position (a position comfortable, and easier for us parents to give kisses or hugs love love) the goal that children associate reading with love of parents and the book is a very pleasant thing.

6. Use a secret letter from parents to children, we can say, "Son, Mom has put a secret letter for you. Just you and your mom knows it. Mom put a pillow under your bed, read after eating yes ". Its contents may be words that encourage children in learning and school activities.

Best Way Understanding Children

Many parents and teachers who attend my seminars commented, "Okay, you give a technique to overcome the problem of children is very good. But, I'm not sure I can apply what you have taught "and then asked me" What is this? "," First I do not like kids, next how to communicate to them? '. Obviously this is a problem, but there are quiet ways to understand the child's behavior. But wait first because there are parts that you must understand first.

Many of the parents and teachers ask in their own minds:
  1. Why does my child does not care about his future?
  2. Why do they do things that make no sense (teachers and parents)
  3. Why they will not listen even though have been reminded many times?
  4. Why my son lets himself be influenced by negative things from friends that are not useful?

Well, the main question: how to understand their behavior and thinking?

The answer is their EMOTIONS. Emotions are masters of their logical thinking of children and adolescents. Teenagers and children are far more driven by their feelings rather than thoughts that are good for them. Knowing this, it is in vain we preach their day's efforts. Bombard their minds with positive advice, make ourselves motivator impromptu in front of them does not work. It makes children grow "annoyed" with our behavior. comments or advice such as: "You must study hard", "do not waste your time playing on", "keep cleanliness in your room", unless we first recognize their feelings.

Under conditions of negative emotions that a child can not receive input and advice decree even though that may change their behavior. Different result if we are able to understand and recognize their emotions first then they will be open and listen to suggestions from our logical. Children and teens will do anything if it makes them feel good or bad in taste or his heart.

Before going any further, we will learn together, how we react in the face of a problem child. Often if there is a problem then there dibenak our heads generally there are 3 ways:

1. Giving Advice, for example: "I had a fight with Agus, at school", our response is generally "what the fuck you this school is not the place to learn to be carpenters fight, only villains of the problem with fighting"

2. Interrogated, eg: "I lost Hp school" our response is generally "you sure it is not you alone who eliminate? Sure you do not forget, try to remember back "

3. Blaming and accusing, eg: "Edo was punished for not doing homework" our response is generally "lazy child basis, starting today you have to be more disciplined and pay attention to school duties".

After seeing the three examples above, there is no space even to acknowledge the child's feelings or emotions, right? Often we only provide input without going to hear what actually happened (more precisely the feeling of what happens to our children). When a child is neglected their emotions will be more angry and resentful. As long as they are in a negative emotional state, all counsels our good intentions will not be ignored, even going on "gubrak".


The best way to understand our children are, acknowledge their emotions (recognize emotions) and give them the strength to find their own solutions to problems. The trick is:

1. Listen to them 100%, flat face or eyes with a look of pity. (Pay attention and recognition)
Sometimes children need only be heard, not the solution. Just give 100% attention we can surprise, kids want to open and willing to share their thoughts and feelings. Just by saying "hmm .. okay, so yeah .. then .. "Although seemingly simple, honest is difficult for us parents who used to want to take the fast track aliases provide solutions and solve problems. As it is we do, children will be shut down and avoid talking to us. Children will only meyatakan honest thoughts and feelings without fear of being judged.

When we allow children to uncover emotions and thoughts freely (while we are there to provide emotional support), we will see that they can find their own solutions to their problems. Another advantage of this approach is that the child will develop the confidence to think for themselves and face the challenges - challenges of life.

For example: "I had a fight with Agus, at school", our response "what happened? Wound must hurt so yah .. oh, okay "

2. Recognizing and portray emotions.
It should be a moment for us to learn the meaning of emotion, because it is important for us to be able to reflect the child's emotions and understand exactly how they feel. With pin down their feelings, it is easy for them to open up and talk about their problems. These are emotions commonly experienced by humans.


Emotion and Meaning Name it:

Angry - Feel the injustice
Guilt - We feel unfair to others
Fear - We expected anticipation because sesuatum untoward could happen
Frustration - Doing something over and over and the results are not as expected means we have to find another way
Disappointed - What does not happen
Sad - Losing something that feels worthwhile
Loneliness - The need meaningful relationships not just friends
Pain is not able to - need to learn something because something can not be done well
Boredom - The need to grow up and get a new challenge
Stress - Something that is too painful and should be stopped
Depression - Something that is too painful and should be stopped

Let us begin with the case, if your child comes to you and says "Joni did not want to play ball with me" what's your answer? "Come play with papa / mama, maen each other, yes or yes it is .. maen alone ". The third answer is the classic answer is fleeting, and it is justified because it is often used. My question was what the emotion behind the words of the child? That's right! DISAPPOINTED, LONELY, well then what about the response? "Hmm .. boy you really want the same maen Joni yes "or" Hmm .. you're lonely, well, want to play it? "and wait for the response, usually the child will talk at length, then the solution should be left to the children, the way" then what can Papa / Mama help for you? Want to play together Papa / Mama? Or is there any other ideas? "Let your child choose the best solution for him. Memorize the above table and use it to communicate with the child, understand seiap case with children.

With co-understand emotions and let the child find a solution the problem itself then the child will feel understood and comfortable. As well as the growing sense of confidence in the environment that appreciates him. And the next one will be easy for the child to open up to parents, and mutual trust between parent and child will be well formed.

Until now, we have learned how to keep children open and believe in us, right? Next how to drive? The way that we have heard and understand the feelings and emotions of children, and ask the best solution according to the child (if the child is able to think for solutions) ask "may I Papa / Mama suggestions?" After permission from the child then give input that you feel is most effective. Sometimes a child's perspective is not the same as parents, we know if a child choose a solution that is less precise (according to parents) with the values, norms prevailing in the social environment we can "lead them" easily because steps 1 and 2 are done. Obviously with polite communication models and respect for children.

Violence gate will open hearts when we accept and understand our child, and children will be invited in and visit us in the deepest heart of hearts. Place that we can put messages, referrals and positive outcome for the good of the child's future.

I understand how this takes time, all the smart solutions to improve the quality of the family takes time. There is such thing as "waiting time" for a particular outcome. The cuisine is tasty and healthy takes time and the kitchen, not a few seconds so. So the quality of what we want for our families?

Renewal of Islamic Education Sayyid Ahmad Khan

Sir Sayyid Ahmad Khan is known as a prominent reformer among the Indian Muslims in the 19th century and have brilliant ideas. Even the idea of ​​the State of Pakistan stems from the idea and coined by Muhammad Iqbal, then finally realized by Ali Jinnah in August 14, 1947. Various reforms have thought dimunculkannya devastating for the people of India further progress, both in the field of education, religious, social, political or other fields.

Sayyid Ahmad Khan found the status of Indian Muslims, can only be realized through cooperation with the British. Because, at that time, England was the ruler who invaded India and still has a strong power. Challenge his rule would not be good for the Muslims of India, and even will keep them back and eventually be far behind the Hindu India.

In addition to the base height and the Western powers, including those owned by the UK is a science and technology (Science) modern. For Muslims, to be developed as well as they can master science and technology, way to go on Muslims to acquire the necessary science and technology was not cooperating with the Hindus against the British, but to improve and strengthen relations with them.

He argues that Islam is a religion of reason. He rejected everything in religion contrary to the facts of science that has been proven true. He saw that the Indian Muslims retreated because they were not up to date. Classical Islamic civilization has been lost and it has raised a new civilization in the West. Basic new civilization is Western science and technology and the process of European science and technology as a way to facilitate realizing their desires, including the conquering Muslims. Conquest can be done easily, because Muslims do not have advantages in the areas controlled by Western Nations.

Modern science and technology is the result of a human mind, because it is the western world got high appreciation. If Muslims want to progress must be willing to respect the mind. Sayyid Ahmad Khan appreciate rational minds, he believes that the strength and freedom and human freedom in determining the will and deed, be left entirely to the man himself.

In other words, he has the same familiar with Qadariyah (free will and free act) and not sensible Jabariyah or fatalism. In line with the schools Qodariyah, he believes that for every creature of God or nature has determined tabi'at. Defined nature of God and that the Qur'an is called sunnatullah. Everything in nature happens according to the law of cause and effect. Because of the strong belief in the laws of nature and hard he retains the concept of natural law, he considered infidels by Muslim groups who have not been able to accept the idea.

The first step is to establish performed Mudarabad British School (1861) and Ghazipur (1863). Both the school was founded on the crowded endorsement, famous people, Hindus and Muslims. The school is said to be getting more sympathy than English schools established by Christian preachers.

Ahmad Khan translation attempts to organize important books, and in 1864 formed The Translation Society at Ghazipur which later known as The Scientific Society. After returning from England he published a journal that urdu language al-Akhlaq Tahdheeb first edition published in December 1870. The journal is used to spread the ideas of renewal Ahmad Khan, as well as other figures are in line with it.

The journal was very influential very knowledgeable, not only as a medium of spreading reform ideas, but also in its role in the development of urdu literature. Business peak Ahmad Khan in the field of education was the establishment of Muhammadan Anglo Oriental College (MAOC), in 1875, at Aligarh. And in 1920 changed its name to the Aligarh Muslim University.

After University Aligarh had stood majestic, Sayyid Ahmad Khan looking for ideas to improve public education in Islamic India. He realized that the university was not enough to accommodate over 70 million people at the time. Tahun1886, he formed Mohammedan Educational Conference through trial among Islamic scholars to discuss public education issues of Islam in India. Konferen is a tool of intellectual revival and dissemination of knowledge more widely. There among intellectuals used to evoke the spirit of the meeting for the renewal of social, economic and intellectual progress of the Muslim community in India.

Aligarh Movement

Aligarh Movement emerged after the death of Ahmad Khan. The existence of Aligarh Movement can not be separated from the figure of Sayyid Ahmad Khan and universities are founded, namely MAOC Through (MAOC), the reform ideas were hatched Sir Sayyid Ahmad Khan embraced and propagated further by students and followers who then came what is known as the Aligarh Movement. M.A.O.C. the headquarters of Aligarh Movement with a potential that has evolved into an institution that plays a role in finding the way out of problems in the fields of education, social and political Muslims in India.

Aligarh Movement which is the prime mover for the establishment of reform among the Islamic Ummah India. Given this movement, ideas emerge as the next renewal of the type proposed by Amir Ali, Muhammad Iqbal, Maulana Abdul Kalam Azad, and so on. This movement also that the increasing Indian Muslims to rise up towards progress. His influence has been felt in the Islamic intellectual class of India.


Principal characteristics of Aligarh movement

The principal characteristic Aligarh movement as disempaikan by Mustafa Khan in An Apology for the New Light 1891 are:

1. This movement wants to adopt a wide range of European civilization.
2. This movement wants to improvement of social conditions, especially social Muslim minority of India.
3. This movement is intended to change the character of religious understanding of traditional to modern style.

Akbar S. Ahmad said that the Aligarh Muslim India a response to modernity. Furthermore, the university is giving a new awareness and confidence for Muslims in the Indian subcontinent, in turn, led to the birth of the Islamic State of Pakistan. While the success of the Aligarh Movement through MAOC in forging India Muslim thinkers supported by several factors, including the following ::


1. Curriculum Field

Progress Aligarh Movement due to general subjects, such as science, philosophy, humanities, and so on.

2. Language

Language is used as the language of instruction is English. This is based on that science in the West mostly written in English.


Educational goals and curriculum

The establishment of educational institutions as the Aligarh MAOC or Ahmad Khan has initiated an important goal in education with the goal to give birth to a generation of Muslims who dominate modern Western science but still maintain a high commitment to Islam. While the curriculum is taught in the religious sciences of Islam and modern sciences.

Educational value

Education is an integral part of life and human life, because education itself is a media personality in building and developing human potential. The understanding of the nature, character and potential in humans is one of the educational efforts in shaping the values ​​of human personality. Value is the integrity of a person's life that will be reflected in the choice: how to dress, choosing friends, social interaction, and how to establish family relationships and his brothers well and how to achieve a high sense of togetherness.

The relationship between the value of the education very closely. Value involved in any act of education, both in choosing and deciding every case to the learning needs. Through the perception of value, educators can evaluate students. Similarly, students can measure the concentration value presented educators in the learning process. Communities can also refer to a number of values ​​(right-wrong, good-bad, beautiful-not beautiful) when they are considering the feasibility of education their children experienced. Educational institutions have a duty to prepare the formation of individuals intelligent and noble.

The fulfillment of these two criteria allows the realization of an ideal social values, which have the spirit of togetherness, to avoid social conflicts, develop self-potential, and use it to achieve inner and outer happiness, and salvation of mankind in general.

The target to be addressed in the educational value is planting noble values ​​into self-learners. A variety of education and teaching methods used in other approaches can be used in the process of education and teaching values ​​education. This is very important, to give variety to the teaching and training process, making it more interesting and not boring.

It shows that the role of education in the formation and cultivation of value to learners determine their lives. Without education, the value is very difficult to find or obtain. Therefore, the function of education is to instill the values ​​of (good) to students, not just a transfer of knowledge just as popular over the years. Knowledge without understanding the value tends to result in conflict, both inter-religious groups, cultures, regions, and between institutions. Conflicts arising lately strongly associated with social, cultural, and religious. According to the speakers, this is due to the weak role of education that instills the value of community and social solidarity in an era of plurality. Therefore mendidikkan shared values ​​is very important to implement, and in doing so need to do some approaches and one such approach that value teaching approach.

There are five approaches which are generally used in educational value, namely: (1) the value investment approach (inculcation approach), (2) the approach of cognitive moral development (cognitive moral development approach), (3) approach to value analysis (values ​​analysis approach), (4) the value clarification approach (values ​​clarification approach), and (5) learning approaches do (action learning approach). However, in this paper only discusses the value teaching approaches (inculcation approach), which is an approach that places emphasis on the cultivation of values ​​in students. Through this approach, the objectives are: (1) the receipt of certain social values ​​by students, and (2) changes in the values ​​of students that do not correspond to the desired values. To support this approach, commonly used methods of pattern, positive and negative reinforcement, simulations, role play, and others.

Understanding the value of togetherness

As social beings, humans by nature are inseparable from a sense of togetherness. No individual can stand alone without the help of others. Therefore, togetherness must have values ​​that can bridge the most important people in achieving the real essence of life.

With diwujudkannnya togetherness can lead people to think, act, behave, work, and go. Shared values ​​is the value that is realized in every human being will quickness did not have a thing. In the sense that it brings a sense of community needs directly or indirectly. The benefits contained in nlai-value of togetherness among others:

1. Communication and mutual understanding. With the togetherness, fertile ground for smooth communication can occur.

2. Viewing direction and a step towards the vision. Togetherness unify the direction of view. That way, it can give rise to a capital that focused on the vision to realize a mission.

3. Team formation and effectiveness. With a capital of togetherness, team building team work so much easier.

4. Indivisibility for dynamic stability. Togetherness is a basic tool for the realization of a dynamic stability within an association.

5. Conducive to openness. With the togetherness can foster a sense of openness that is by an exchange of thoughts, ideas, and criticisms in exercising better.

6. Sharing and caring. Only in situations that the values ​​of togetherness grows, a critical innovation and kretif can be created.

The existence of shared values ​​in an age where technology plays a major role is required. This is due to the magnitude of potential competition in the world is going to happen. Thus, a conclusion can be drawn that the real value of togetherness is always a part of the values, assumptions, and beliefs that exist in our daily lives that can not be separated in our nature as social individuals. It is simply to realize the successful performance of shared values ​​is to apply themselves.

To educate the value of togetherness with value teaching approach

Almost all people recognize that diversity and difference is a necessity that must be accepted and dealt with, although sometimes less precise attitude towards diversity that exists often a source of conflict that lead to hostility and war because of the diversity and differences. Therefore, humans are required to locate specific points that allow for common ground or at least not together. To be able to reach the level of unity among human beings, we need to set our sights a higher level and in, so the difference - a difference that normally reside in the realm of material and symbolic be exceeded. One dimension that includes human universalism is the man himself, that it is certainly not at the level of the material but rather on the historical dimension and the ideals of the future.

To mendidikkan shared values ​​necessary to separate awareness essentially must exist on each indivual person. In this case the noble values, ethics and morals play an important role in fostering and instilling a sense of caring and sharing in accepting human diversity and differences that exist in this life. The feeling of togetherness that high previously fostered by the cultivation of values ​​that embody a sense of good will need each other, mutual respect, and mutual respect, and so forth.

In the realm of educational value, an educator is not only effective in teaching and learning activities in the classroom, but more so in his personal relationships, and modeling both the students as well as to all members of the school community. This relationship is growing rapidly and bear the fruit of education if it is based on the love between them. Educating a person's ability to develop itself into a personal and mature.

Emergence of community values ​​among educators with learners or learners with other learners will be realized when it is embedded in their attitude to respect diversity and differences between them. Syahrin Harahap said that human unity will be realized when people are constantly active and productive communication in order to preserve their existence to the harmony of social life.

It can be concluded that the diversity and differences in people not become an obstacle to realize the values ​​of togetherness when embedded noble values ​​with mutual respect, mutual respect and mutual need between one another. In order to achieve the real goal, is in need strategies or methods used to educate teachers together through value investment approach will be further discussion.

Definition of Value Investment Approach

In pratikal level, the implementation of the educational value of various educational institutions clarified to the two forms of bias. First, the educational value implemented as a subject matter, and second, the value of education is integrated into the entire program and the learning process, both within and outside the schooling. The first form that generally emphasized efforts functionalization subjects educational value (eg Akhlag, civic education, character education, etc.) to be controlled, owned and become an integral part of the self and the personality of the students.

In general, there are a number of approaches to values ​​education. Among these are, the value of investment approach, socialization moral, rational utilitarianism, cognitive moral development, values ​​clarification and learning to do. However, in this paper only discusses the value of any investment approach.

Value investment approach (inculcation approach) is an approach that emphasizes the cultivation of social values ​​in students. This approach is actually a traditional approach. Many critics in western literature devoted to this approach. This approach is seen indoktrinatif, not in accordance with the development of democracy (Banks, 1985; Windmiller, 1976). This approach is assessed to ignore the rights of children to choose freely their own value. According to Raths et al. (1978) Human life is different because of differences in time and place. We can not predict the corresponding value for generations to come. According to him, every generation has the right to determine their own value. Therefore, the need to be taught to the younger generation rather than the value, but the process, so they can find their own values, according to the place and era. Value investment approach may not fit the nature of Western education that upholds the values ​​of individual freedom.

However, as described by Superka, et. al. (1976) realized or not realized this approach is widely used in many communities, especially in the cultivation of religious values ​​and cultural values. The religion has a strong tendency to use this approach in the implementation of programs of religious education. For its practitioners, religious teaching load is ideal values ​​that are global and absolute truth. These values ​​must be accepted and believed. Therefore, the education process must start with or the teachings of those values. As is understood that in many respects the limits of truth in religion is clear, definite, and must be believed. Religious teachings on various aspects of life should be taught, accepted, and it is believed by adherents truth. Faith is an important basis in religious education.

As the name implies, this approach is an approach to learning that emphasizes the cultivation of values ​​- values ​​(Values ​​Inculcation) into self-learners. In inplementasinya educators saw the value of education from the perspective of investment, which is based on the values ​​that are socially and culturally has been widely accepted by the community as standard or kaedah behave.
