CHARACTER DISCOURSE BETWEEN STUDENTS AND SCHOOL TEACHERS IN YOGYAKARTA SPECIAL PROVINCE IN INDONESIA
Abstract: One of the critical
points in character education in schools is the perception of good and bad
characters between students and teachers. If there is a discourse on the
perception, then there will be misleading on the character building in the
classroom. The students who perceive that they do have good attitudes and perform
good characters might be judged by the teacher as bad students. On the
contrary, the teachers who believe that they have good attitudes and perform
good characters might be considered by the students as disliked teachers. This
survey research was conducted in 6 middle schools in Yogyakarta Special
Province, involving 120 students and 120 teachers. The instrument of the
research was mainly questionnaires consisting of three main groups of
characters, namely performance, attitude, and behavior. Data were analyzed
descriptively using a percentage. Inter-rater agreement analysis was
administered to know the character admiration and discourse. The results
indicate that there are some discourses between the students and the teachers
on the behaviors, performance, and attitudes.
