Preliminary
Education is
an important platform to generate a paradigm shift in
each individual and it also plays an important role in
the delivery of human deductive dynamic in all aspects
of life. Generally speaking, education is always
associated with the process of teaching and learning a
skill, presentation and implementation of knowledge. In
the form of practical, results of
education
should be to produce students who can apply the
knowledge they have learned and utilize the skills
possessed in daily life. In the context of
children,
education must be viewed as an ongoing process developed
concurrently with the development of the individual is a
child who learned anything in the environment and the
'science' or gained skills that they will apply it in a
different context, whether in life daily at that time or
as preparation for life in the future (Department of
Education and Science, 1990).

In other words, all
that is seen and heard by a child from an
educational environment which is as real for
children in early age, they can
not differentiate between good and bad. West and
Islam have the same perspective in this case,
the child
should be formed and trained from the beginning.
What distinguishes Islam emphasizes character
building is a child's behavior is not only
physically, but stabilization of manners should
be implemented along with the application of
faith in the spirit and soul. |
If any
information received by a
child is only
in the level of knowledge without the inculcation of the
faith and strengthening of manners, it is certainly
exhausted
appreciation value of parched and
application process can not be translated in the form of
a perfect civilization. Consequently, the generation
that made possible the high level of wisdom and
intellectual development, but 'high performance' is in
fact a narrow scope that is only based on academic
achievement, while the height of the other aspects it is
biased and has no balance.
So if
this is what happened in the world of
education
today, this means that education fails to generate a
paradigm shift in the cells of each individual, and he
feared a long history will be repeated. Analysis of the
facts from a historical perspective has simply proved
that the destruction of human civilization such as
Egypt, Greece, Rome and Persia is due to the failure of
the application of moral values manners to the
generation of successors and
exhausted
appreciation for application in life.
