Abstract:
This article was written to give an overview of the conceptual views on tolerance education. In order
to obtain the data on the concept of tolerance, the author conducted a literature review and historical
qualitative. Indonesia is a country that has ethnic diversity, but has the same goal, namely towards a
just and prosperous society. Therefore, developing tolerance education is essential, an educational
process that gives equal opportunities to all nation's children without any discrimination in giving
treatment due to ethnic, cultural and religious differences, rewards diversity, and gives equal rights to
ethnic minorities to strengthen unity and integrity, national identity and national image in the eyes of
the international world. In this case, schools must design the learning process, prepare curriculum
and design evaluations, and prepare teachers who have perceptions, attitudes and behaviors of
tolerance, so that they become a part that makes a positive contribution to fostering the tolerance of
students. Given that the Indonesia's forefather has a proud heritage of the Negarakertagama Book,
this book can be used as a basis for tolerance education because it has been recorded in history in the
Majapahit era. |
