Perkembangan kepribadian, salah satunya ditentukan oleh Pendidikan



Perkembangan kepribadian anak sangat ditentukan oleh pendidikan yang diterima dari orang tuanya di rumah. Rumah merupakan tempat belajar yang pertama bagi anak. Sekolah merupakan lembaga kedua yang memberikan andil besar dalam perkembangan kepribadian mereka.
Untuk itu pada usia awal anak masuk sekolah, peran hubungan antara guru dengan murid sangat menentukan. Guru di sekolah mengambil peran orang tua untuk melakukan transfer of knowledge, value and attitude. Maka guru di sekolah memiliki peran yang strategis dalam pengembangan kepribadian anak. Dengan demikian usia anak pada masa kanak sampai ke tingkat remaja akhir berada di dua wilayah yaitu rumah dan sekolah.

Oleh karena itu agar anak mengalami perkembangan kepribadian yang sehat, menurut seorang tokoh psikologi Elizabeth B. Hurlock seharusnya pendidikan yang didapatkan anak selaras atau sinkron dan terintegrasi antara pembinaan di rumah dengan di sekolah.

Hal ini bertujuan agar tidak terjadi kebingungan yang pada akhirnya terjadi split personality (kepribadian ganda).
Elizabeth B. Hurlock memaparkan beberapa alasan tentang pentingnya lembaga pendidikan dalam pengembangan kepribadian.
1. Pertama, semua anak harus bersekolah, terlepas dari pilihan pribadi mereka masing-masing.
2. Kedua,pengaruh sekolah sangat signifikan pada tahap awal pembentukan konsep diri pada anak.
3. Ketiga, selain di rumah,anak menghabiskan lebih banyak waktu di sekolah daripada di tempat lainnya.Sedangkan ketika anak mencapai usia remaja, mereka menghabiskan lebih banyak waktu di sekolah daripada di rumah.
4. Keempat, sekolah memberikan kesempatan kepada anak untuk mendapatkan perkembangan dalam kehidupan,dan sekolah akan mempengaruhi kepribadian dengan menawarkan mereka kesempatan untuk meraih "kesuksesan".
5. Dan kelima, sekolah memberikan kesempatan awal yang ril kepada seseorang untuk menilai dirinya dan kemampuannya secara realistis, bebas dari intervensi orangtua.
Sekolah mengajarkan kemandirian kepada siswa agar tidak bergantung kepada orang lain, karena selama di sekolah orang tua tidak diperkenankan untuk mengatur kehidupan anaknya. Dirumah, orang tua yang menjadi contoh anak dalam segala kondisi, yang membimbing dan mengarahkan anak untuk memiliki kepribadian yang baik dan sesuai dengan pribadi sang anak.Dalam memecahkan permasalahan dan menjadi teman dalam suka dan duka.Pribadi anak tersebut akan terus berkembang dengan dukungan pendidikan di sekolah. Semoga anak-anak kita menjadi anak yang berkepribadian hebat.Semoga bermanfaat...

Seberapa Besar Peranan Pendidikan Moral Sebagai Dasar Pendidikan


Melihat dan berinteraksi dengan anak-anak jaman sekarang, terkadang mencengangkan. Dari sikap ataupun perilaku dan reaksi mereka terhadap apa yang terjadi di lingkungan sekitar mereka. Terkadang terlalu berlebihan, terkadang sangat cuek dan tidak mau tau dengan apa yang terjadi. Gambaran yang sangat memprihatinkan bagi generasi dimasa datang. Sebenarnya apa dan siapa yang salah ? Kita tidak tau, dan tidak dapat saling menyalahkan. Karena memang kita tidak tau secara pasti dan jelasnya…..

Menurut saya pribadi, hakikat pendidikan dasar adalah juga membentuk budaya,  moral, dan  budi pekerti, bukan sekedar menjadikan anak-anak kita pintar dan otaknya menguasai ilmu teknologi.  Apabila halnya demikian, kita tak perlu heran kalau masih melihat banyak orang pintar dan otaknya cerdas, namun miskin moral dan budi pekerti. Mungkin kita terlewat untuk menginternalisasi nilai-nilai moral saat sekolah dasar dulu. Mungkin waktu kita saat itu tersita untuk menghafal ilmu-ilmu “penting” lainnya.
Bukan berarti bahwa pendidikan kita mulai melupakan “Budaya”, yang di dalamnya mencakup moral dan budi pekerti. Menyadari bahwa pendidikan tak dapat dipisahkan dari kebudayaan, karena dalam proses pendidikan, anak diajarkan budaya dan nilai-nilai moral.

Menurut pendapat saya idealnya pada sekolah dasar, anak-anak diajarkan sistem nilai moral melalui empat aspek, yaitu Menghargai Diri Sendiri (Regarding Self), Menghargai Orang Lain (Relation to Others), Menghargai Lingkungan dan Keindahan (Relation to Nature & the Sublime), serta menghargai kelompok dan komunitas (Relation to Group & Society). Keempatnya diajarkan dan ditanamkan pada setiap anak sehingga membentuk perilaku mereka.

Seperti di Negara Jepang misalnya, pendidikan sekolah dasar  selalu menanamkan pada anak-anak bahwa hidup tidak bisa semaunya sendiri, terutama dalam bermasyarakat. Mereka perlu memerhatikan orang lain, lingkungan, dan kelompok sosial. Tak heran kalau kita melihat dalam realitanya, masyarakat di Jepang saling menghargai. Di kendaraan umum, jalan raya, maupun bermasyarakat, mereka saling memperhatikan kepentingan orang lain. Rupanya hal ini telah ditanamkan sejak mereka berada di tingkat pendidikan dasar. Disana empat kali dalam seminggu mewajibkan bagi siswa untuk melakukan pekerjaan-pekerjaan rumah tangga. Ia harus membersihkan dan menyikat WC, menyapu dapur, dan mengepel lantai. Setiap anak di Jepang, tanpa kecuali, harus melakukan pekerjaan-pekerjaan itu. Akibatnya mereka bisa lebih mandiri dan menghormati orang lain.
Kebersahajaan juga diajarkan dan ditanamkan pada anak-anak sejak dini. Nilai moral jauh lebih penting dari nilai materi. Mereka hampir tidak pernah menunjukkan atau bicara tentang materi. Siswa tidak ada yang membawa handphone, ataupun barang berharga. Berbicara tentang materi adalah hal yang memalukan dan dianggap rendah disana.

Keselarasan antara pendidikan di sekolah dengan nilai-nilai yang ditanamkan di rumah dan masyarakat juga penting. Apabila anak di sekolah membersihkan WC, maka otomatis itu juga dikerjakan di rumah. Apabila anak di sekolah bersahaja, maka orang tua di rumah juga mencontohkan kebersahajaan. Hal ini menjadikan moral lebih mudah tertanam dan terpateri di anak. Dengan kata lain, orang tua tidak “membongkar” apa yang diajarkan di sekolah oleh guru. Mereka justru mempertajam nilai-nilai itu dalam keseharian sang anak. Saat makan siang tiba, anak-anak merapikan meja untuk digunakan makan siang bersama di kelas. Yang mengagetkan saya adalah, makan siang itu dilayani oleh mereka sendiri secara bergiliran. Beberapa anak pergi ke dapur umum sekolah untuk mengambil trolley makanan dan minuman. Kemudian mereka melayani teman-temannya dengan mengambilkan makanan dan menyajikan minuman.

Hal seperti ini menanamkan nilai pada anak tentang pentingnya melayani orang lain. Saya yakin, apabila anak-anak terbiasa melayani, sekiranya nanti menjadi pejabat publik, pasti nalurinya melayani masyarakat, bukan malah minta dilayani.

Di balik itu semua ada sebuah perjuangan panjang dalam membentuk budaya dan karakter.  Ibarat pohon besar yang dahan dan rantingnya banyak, asalnya tetap dari satu petak akar. Dan akar itu, saya pikir adalah pendidikan dasar. Dengan dasar filosofi yang diajarkan adalah bagaimana menaklukan diri sendiri demi kepentingan yang lebih luas. Anak-anak diajarkan untuk memiliki harga diri, rasa malu, dan jujur. Mereka juga dididik untuk menghargai sistem nilai, bukan materi atau harta.
Mungkin di negeri kita banyak juga sekolah yang mengajarkan pembentukan karakter. Ada sekolah mahal yang bagus. Namun selama dilakukan terpisah-terpisah, bukan sebagai sistem nasional, anak akan mengalami kebingungan dalam kehidupan nyata. Apalagi kalau sekolah mahal sudah menjadi bagian dari mencari gengsi, maka satu nilai moral sudah berkurang di sana...
Semoga dapat bermanfaat bagi kita para orang tua....
