Pedagogic Spiritual Approach Through the Model 'Collaboration based on Three Circle Components' (Coba3cc)

Spiritual pedagogy is a theory or concept of education that has attracted the attention of educators and researchers in the western world for the past two decades. This theory seeks to apply values derived from religion and culture in the practice of education in schools. In this study, the aim was to elucidate objectively the conditions of the development of students’ spiritual attitude at SMAN (public senior high schools) in Pidie District. The study used spiritual pedagogy as an approach to describe the development of the religious attitude of the students at SMAN in Pidie District. The method used in this study was a qualitative research method to produce descriptive data in the form of written or oral words of observed behavior. The results showed several aspects of the religious attitude, application of spiritual pedagogy in enhancing students’ religiosity, methods for evaluating students’ religiosity in learning, and obstacles in fostering the students’ religious attitude through spiritual pedagogy. However, the study found that the implementation of spiritual values was not yet optimally carried out in the schools at SMAN in Pidie District. In addition, the study also found a new model to be conducted through spiritual pedagogy called “Collaboration on Based Three Circle Components” (CoBa3CC), which consists of three forms, namely class-based spiritual pedagogy, school culture-based spiritual pedagogy, and community-based spiritual pedagogy.
