Abstract

The role of moral education in character development of children is a crucial aspect in the educational process at MI (Islamic Elementary Schools). However, there is still a need to gain a deeper understanding of how educational philosophy can aid in developing the moral character of children at MI. This research employs a qualitative approach by conducting literature reviews and philosophical analyses of moral education concepts in Islam as well as the approaches used in MI. The results of the study indicate that moral education in MI can be enhanced through the application of philosophical approaches, such as introducing moral concepts in Islamic teachings contextually and using philosophical reflection methods in learning. Thus, moral education can be more effective in shaping the character of children to have noble morals in accordance with Islamic teachings.
