ACCOUNTING LEARNING TO GEN Z IN THE IMPLEMENTATION OF BELA NEGARA AND PANCASILA CHARACTER AT SMK GANESA SATRIA 1

Abstract

Community service is an important form of contribution from educational institutions to society and the country. In the context of Ganesa Satria 1 Vocational School, our goal is to implement accounting learning that is in accordance with the character of National Defense and Pancasila for Generation Z (Gen Z) students. Gen Z is a group of young people who are faced with the demands of technological progress and the challenges of character development. PjBL allows students to be involved in real projects that are relevant to everyday life and allows them to develop accounting skills and the character of National Defense and Pancasila at the same time. These projects are designed to understand basic accounting concepts, as well as apply the values of National Defense and Pancasila in every step of the project. During implementation, data was collected through questionnaires and surveys to evaluate the effectiveness of PjBL in developing understanding of accounting and the character of Gen Z students. The results show that PjBL succeeded in increasing understanding of accounting and also had a positive impact in forming the character of Defending the Nation and Pancasila. Students show increased collaboration, communication skills, and concern for society and the country. The implementation of accounting learning that integrates the character of National Defense and Pancasila in Ganesa Satria 1 Vocational School opens up opportunities to improve character education that is more holistic and relevant for Gen Z. The results of this research can be a basis for other Vocational Schools and educational institutions to develop similar approaches that combine learning. academics with national values and character in their curriculum.
