Abstract

This study aims to provide an overview of the use of the VCT (Value Clarification Technique) model in Civic Education to foster students’ moral awareness. In the current global era, there are many moral crises experienced by students caused by a lack of moral awareness. The design used in this study is a qualitative approach. Data collection techniques are carried out through observation, documentation studies, literature studies, research results are carried out through the stages of analysis and verification or concluding to obtain conclusions. Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that: Morals are an inseparable part of human life, morals are characteristics that show patterns of human behavior in carrying out their lives. Good morals show that a person has good behavior or behavior patterns, and vice versa. In this era of globalization, of course, moral issues get special attention, especially among teenagers. So there is a need for moral awareness in learners to fortify themselves. In an increasingly global era, a learning model is needed to build moral awareness in learners, which can be done through the learning of citizenship education, namely the use of the VCT (Value Clarification Technique) model applied by teachers in the classroom. The VCT model is an innovative learning model that can be applied in Civics learning in fostering the moral awareness of students in the global era. Growing awareness in students that morals are a very important part of carrying out life as good citizens. The global era cannot be avoided, but its development must be followed by continuing to apply moral values as well as strengthening and fostering moral awareness within oneself.
