Innovation in Muhammadiyah's Islamic-Based Character Development Through the Baldu Program (Two Meaningful Minutes)
Main Article Content
Abstract
Religion-based character education is a relevant approach to addressing the moral challenges of the younger generation in the digital era. This study aims to assess the effectiveness of the Baldu (Two Minutes of Learning Religion Before Class) program in shaping the character of elementary school students, particularly in terms of discipline, social responsibility, empathy, and public speaking skills. The method used was descriptive qualitative observation, with direct observation of student behavior during the Baldu program. The results showed that students who participated in this program experienced significant improvements in various aspects of character, including increased punctual attendance, compliance with class rules, and more confident speaking skills. The program also reinforced Islamic values such as speaking correctly, listening with empathy, and being responsible for their words. In addition to providing religious knowledge, Baldu encouraged students to internalize and practice these values in their daily lives. These findings align with Lickona's character education theory and Bandura's social learning theory. Therefore, Baldu is worthy of being used as an effective and applicable model of religion-based character learning in elementary schools.
