Dari Ruang Kelas ke Relasi Sosial: Pendidikan Pancasila Dan Praktik Toleransi Mahasiswa di Universitas Negeri Makassar

Abstract

Interfaith tolerance needs to be reflected in the real behavior of students, such as mutual respect, honor, helping each other, and showing affection in daily interactions, both on and off campus. These values are an important foundation in building character education reinforcement based on Pancasila, which aims to shape students into tolerant individuals with integrity, and able to contribute positively to community and national life. This study uses a descriptive method with a qualitative approach. Data collection techniques include interviews, observations, and documentation. Data analysis is carried out through three stages, namely data reduction, data presentation, and systematic drawing of conclusions. The results of the study indicate that the internalization of Pancasila values in students needs to be realized concretely through every activity, especially in the learning process of the Pancasila Education course, in order to form the character of intelligent and noble citizens. The implementation of these Pancasila values is reflected in religious attitudes, social concern, independence, national spirit, democracy, tolerance, and discipline. The Pancasila-based character education strengthening program in the context of higher education is implemented through integration in the teaching and learning process, curriculum development, and the implementation of routine, incidental, and extra-campus academic activities such as student organizations, community service, and leadership training. Thus, the campus plays a strategic role as an agent for forming the character of the young generation based on national and humanitarian values.
