Building Character in Elementary School Students through Market Day Entrepreneur Activities on Perspective of Hasan Al-Banna's thought

Abstract

The ongoing era of Society 5.0 in the world reminds educational institutions to prepare students from an early age, including the entrepreneurial spirit. Becoming an entrepreneur is impossible to do suddenly; there are several series for building an entrepreneurial spirit, including entrepreneurial education practices for elementary school students. Qualitatively descriptive, this research was conducted at the Islamic Elementary School (MI: Madrasah Ibtidaiyyah) Darul Ulum 02 Ngembalrejo Bae Kudus Indonesia, which aims to describe entrepreneurial activities in the form of market days in cultivating character. After the data is collected through interview, observation, and documentation techniques, analysis is carried out in the form of data reduction, presentation, and conclusion. The results of this study show that by practicing Market Day, students can position themselves as ideal traders by applying the principles of being traders who have honest and good character. As character education is the main view of Hasan Al Banna's educational thinking, the success of learning can be evaluated on aspects of honest character in its students.
