| dc.description.abstract | Civics Education’s main function is to mold students into citizens who understand their responsibilities and be able to use their rights, whose commitment of loyalty to Indonesia is reflected in their intelligence, skill, and character as maintained by Pancasila (the five basic principles of the Republic of Indonesia) and the Constitution of 1945. This supplementary on developing Civics Studies at the Elementary School level is meant to complement existing teaching materials. Inside this supplement, models, strategies, methods, and approaches to teaching Civics are explored to aid teachers in shaping their creativity in the classroom as a facilitator. The development of this supplement is based on the PAIKEM principles (Pembelajaran Aktif, Inovatif, Kreatif, Efektif, dan Menyenangkan or Active, Innovative, Creative, Effective, and Fun Lessons). These principles are expected to ease absorption of Civics studies, especially in evaluating affective, cognitive, and psychomotor domains simultaneously in students in the lower classes who have just learned to read and write. In the higher classes, creativity in lessons is increased. The consequence for the teacher as a motivator and facilitator is that they must be more creative, initiative, and attentive to the students. Without this, Civics Studies will not be optimally taught. | en_US |
