Increasing Student Participation in School Demographic Activities Through Civic Education Learning

Abstract

Student participation in school democracy activities is an important indicator in forming the character of active and responsible citizens. Civic education (PKN) has a strategic role in instilling democratic values in students from an early age. This study aims to examine how PKN learning can increase student participation in school democracy activities through a literature review approach. The method used is a review method of various previous studies relevant to the theme of democratic education and student participation. The results of the study show that interactive, contextual, and participatory PKN learning strategies can increase student awareness and involvement in decision-making in the school environment, such as the election of class leaders, class apparatus members and student forums. Thus, appropriately designed PKN learning can be an effective means of forming a democratic culture in schools
