Abstract

Penelitian ini dilatarbelakangi oleh pentingnya pendidikan karakter, khususnya disiplin dan tanggung jawab, sebagai fondasi utama kepribadian siswa di sekolah dasar. Fokus utama penelitian ini adalah mendeskripsikan penguatan karakter tersebut melalui implementasi Jurnal Piket Kelas (JPK) di SDN Kalitengah 2 Sidoarjo. Metode yang digunakan adalah studi kasus dengan pendekatan kualitatif. Data dikumpulkan melalui observasi kegiatan piket, wawancara mendalam dengan kepala sekolah, guru, dan siswa, serta dokumentasi berupa jurnal dan foto kegiatan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa implementasi JPK yang dimulai sejak tahun ajaran 2022/2023 telah menciptakan sistem pengawasan yang terstruktur dan terukur. Melalui mekanisme pengisian jurnal harian, verifikasi guru, dan penerapan konsekuensi edukatif, siswa menunjukkan peningkatan kesadaran dalam menjalankan tugas secara konsisten tanpa harus selalu diingatkan. Program ini tidak hanya meningkatkan disiplin individu, tetapi juga memperkuat kerja sama tim dan kepedulian terhadap lingkungan sekolah. Dapat disimpulkan bahwa Jurnal Piket Kelas (JPK) efektif dalam menginternalisasi nilai disiplin dan tanggung jawab serta mampu mendorong perubahan budaya sekolah yang lebih positif dan tertata.

 ABSTRACT

This study was motivated by the importance of character education, particularly discipline and responsibility, as the main foundation of students' personalities in elementary schools. The main focus of this study was to describe the strengthening of these characters through the implementation of the Class Duty Journal (JPK) at SDN Kalitengah 2 Sidoarjo. The method used was a case study with a qualitative approach. Data were collected through observation of duty activities, in-depth interviews with the principal, teachers, and students, as well as documentation in the form of journals and photos of activities. The results showed that the implementation of JPK, which began in the 2022/2023 school year, has created a structured and measurable monitoring system. Through the mechanism of filling out daily journals, teacher verification, and the application of educational consequences, students showed an increase in awareness in carrying out their duties consistently without always having to be reminded. This program not only improved individual discipline but also strengthened teamwork and concern for the school environment. It can be concluded that the Class Duty Journal is effective in internalizing the values of discipline and responsibility and is able to encourage a more positive and organized school culture.
