Profile of Character Education in Indonesian Elementary Schools During the Covid-19 Pandemic

The negative impact of technological developments in the 21st century, if not balanced with the development of character education, will lead to a character crisis. This literature review aims to systematically review the literature on profile of character education in indonesian elementary schools during the covid-19 pandemic. The literature search was carried out through the Google Scholar database in the 2018-2021 period. The inclusion criteria used are articles that specifically discuss the moral degradation due to the character education crisis during the COVID-19 pandemic in primary schools in Indonesia. Based on article extraction, 10 articles were selected that met the criteria. The results of the review show that currently there are many events that show the lack of positive character possessed by students in Indonesia. Factors causing the decline in the character of the nation's children include a mindset that emphasizes the formation of knowledge. The solution that can be developed is to utilize social capital in the form of synergy in three educational centers, namely families, schools and communities in developing character education based on humanistic education, religious education, and exemplary. Therefore, it is important for schools to create synergies between families, schools, and communities.
