Summary
Pendidikan adalah usaha sadar untuk menumbuh kembangkan potensi sumber daya manusia (SDM) melalui kegiatan pengajaran. Jadi pendidikan karakter dapat didefinisikan sebagai usaha sadar untuk menumbuhkan kualitas sumber daya manusia (SDM) melalui kegiatan pengajaran dalam melandasi pemikiran, sikap, dan kepribadian yang ditampilkan. Hal ini juga sesuai dengan isi buku panduan Penguatan Pendidikan Karakter Bekal Generasi Emas 2045 ( 2017 : 16 ) yang menyatakan antara lain bahwa program Penguatan Pendidikan Karakter mendorong sekolah untuk menumbuhkan dan memperkuat karakter siswa melalui kegiatan ektrakurikuler, intrakurikuler, dan kokurikuler. Pengembangan yaitu fungsi kegiatan ektrakurikuler untuk mengembangkan kemampuan dan kreativitas peserta didik sesuai dengan potensi, bakat dan minat mereka. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa kegiatan OSIS dapat membentuk karakter siswa SMP Negeri di Kabupaten Magelang antara lain percaya diri, kreatif dan inovatif, mandiri, bertanggung jawab, menepati janji, berinisiatif, disiplin, visioner, pengabdian/dedikatif, bersemangat dan demokratis. Persamaan penelitian ini dan penelitian Dyah Nursanti adalah sama-sama meneliti tentang peranan OSIS dalam membentuk karakter siswa. Adapun perbedaannya adalah penelitian ini dilakukan di Sekolah Menengah Kejuruan ( SMK), sedangkan penelitian Dyah dilakukan di Sekolah Menengah Pertama (SMP)
