INTEGRASI MANAJEMEN PENDIDIKAN ISLAM DAN PENDIDIKAN KEWARGANEGARAAN DALAM PENGUATAN KARAKTER BANGSA

Abstract

This research is motivated by the weakening of national character marked by widespread intolerance, corruption, and the fading of nationalist spirit among students. The study aims to examine a model for integrating Islamic educational management and civic education in strengthening national character. A qualitative method with a case study approach was used across four public madrasah aliyah in Java. The findings indicate that the integration of Islamic educational management and civic education through curriculum synchronization, Islamic-democratic school culture, integrity-based leadership, and Islamic value-based citizenship programs is effective in building strong national character. In conclusion, the synergy between these two educational systems produces a holistic and relevant educational model in addressing the challenge of the national character crisis in the era of globalization.
