Abstract

Character education is a form of education that requires immediate improvement, as stated by experts in the field of education. Particularly in Indonesia, there is a concerning decline in the character and moral values of students. Since this character is bestowed upon every student by God Almighty, it poses a challenge and compels us to seek solutions. The learning environment is a significant factor that greatly impacts the development and enhancement of students' character. One crucial aspect of the learning environment is the selection of appropriate and suitable learning strategies. Various types of learning strategies, including inquiry, expository, affective, cooperative, and others, can be employed to effectively develop and improve character. Each of these tactics positively impacts the cultivation of students' character. After conducting extensive literature research, the author has found that the most effective and suitable strategy for character development is cooperative strategy. This strategy not only emphasizes the affective aspect, but also incorporates the cognitive aspect, aiming to achieve a balance between the two aspects in the learning process. Therefore, the author prefers cooperative learning strategies as they are considered more efficient in fostering and enhancing students' character.
