Abstract

To foster good character through physical education, teachers need to have a conceptual framework that is used as a guideline in implementing the learning process that integrates character education in it. Therefore, this research aims at exploring and developing steps to foster good character in physical education learning that can be used as a guide for teachers by using 4D designs (Defining, Designing, Developing, and Disseminating). This research involved 200 primary school students in regency in West Java, Indonesia, and 30 physical education teachers from various regions in West Java, which was carried out using mixed-method research. This research resulted in several findings, including; 1) physical education teachers did not have a reference to the character learning model, so the characters developed were unclear, 2) there were nine characters that need to be developed in physical education learning in primary schools in West Java Province including respect, responsibility, caring, honest, fair, civilized, confident, togetherness, and religious, 3) to develop the nine characters, there were 10 steps that must be taken by the teacher in the learning process that is summarized in the INTEGRATED acronym namely Introduction, Narrative, Test/Pre-test, Education, Growth, Repetition, Action and Analysis, Training, Evaluation, and Doing, 4) the steps have been proven to grow nine characters in students in the learning process. The character was represented by 90% of students in every primary school in both urban and rural schools. Thus, to foster good character, the physical education learning process must implement the INTEGRATED Model in its learning.

Highlights

Physical Education (PE) is an integral part of education which plays vital role in students [1]
The designs are operationally mapped in four stages, namely; 1) at the define stage, field research is conducted to analyze the objective conditions for the physical education learning and analysis of character development needs, 2) at the design stage, a draft model is prepared based on the results of the field research or preliminary research, 3) at the development stage, a model test is conducted at several schools, and 4) at the disseminating stage, model socialization is carried out
The research design developed seeks to produce new products that include material objects such as textbooks, learning films, and the like and include procedures and learning processes [56]. This design was conducted under mixed-method research to address the objective of this research, which is to provide physical education teachers in Indonesia a conceptual framework used as a guideline in implementing the learning process integrating character education
