Formation of Global Diverse Character in Students through Arts Learning Based on the Tri-Kon Principal Perspective

Abstract

Changes that occur in students due to globalization can cause students to not be able to respect each other, bullied, not accept differences and not reflect the noble cultural values of the nation. Global diversity is a character that aims to form students who increase their sense of appreciation for national diversity and are open to other cultures. The application of arts learning is a strategy that can be used to implement the dimensions of global diversity. The aim of this research is to describe art learning in forming a character with global diversity based on the perspective of the trikon concept including continuity, concentricity and convergence. The method used in this research is a qualitative approach by conducting a literature review of journal articles adapted to the topic of discussion using data analysis techniques using thematic analysis. The results of this research include that art education can shape character based on the perspective of the trikon principle through continuity, convergence and concentricity. The trikon principle will form character that can form character of global diversity, including recognizing and appreciating cultural differences, being able to communicate interculturally and interact with others, reflecting and taking responsibility for the experience of diversity.
