DIMENSI-DIMENSI FILSAFAT ILMU PENDIDIKAN UNTUK PEMBENTUKAN KARAKTER BANGSA BERDASARKAN PANCASILA

Objective: The philosophy of educational science provides a fundamental basis for developing educational theory, practice, and policy, as it addresses human nature, life purpose, and moral values. This study aims to analyze the dimensions of the philosophy of educational science and their relevance to national character education based on Pancasila principles. Method: This study employed a qualitative approach with a library research method, reviewing educational regulations, institutional documents, and conceptual literature on educational philosophy, character education, and civic education. Results: The findings indicate that the philosophy of educational science comprises ontological, epistemological, axiological, anthropological, ethical, and teleological dimensions, which are interconnected in determining the purpose, process, and orientation of the educated individual. Character education based on Pancasila is realized not merely through verbal instruction, but through role modeling, school culture, contextual learning, social experiences, ethical decision-making, and civic participation. Novelty: The novelty of this study lies in synthesizing the six dimensions of educational philosophy into a comprehensive model for internalizing Pancasila values that integrates knowledge, attitudes, commitment, and concrete actions to build national character that is faithful, civilized, democratic, cooperative, and independent.
