Introduction

Abstract

In the context of preparing an outstanding generation for the 21st century, the integration of character education and entrepreneurship in elementary schools has become a crucial strategy, yet its implementation remains suboptimal and fragmented. This study aims to synthesize empirical evidence regarding the models, character values, and determining factors for the success of this integration. Through a Systematic Literature Review with qualitative meta-synthesis of 28 selected articles, the findings reveal that a hybrid approach—combining project-based learning (curricular) with programs such as market day (extracurricular)—proves most effective. This model not only instills instrumental values such as honesty and responsibility but also intrinsic character traits like resilience, with success heavily dependent on teachers' active agency and systemic school support. These findings highlight the need for a paradigm shift toward designing contextual and holistic learning approaches.

Review

The study "Integrasi Pendidikan Karakter dan Kewirausahaan di Sekolah Dasar: Sintesis Pendekatan Kurikuler-Ekstrakurikuler" addresses a highly pertinent and critical issue in contemporary education: the effective integration of character education and entrepreneurship at the elementary school level. In an era demanding holistic development for 21st-century competencies, the researchers rightly identify the current implementation as suboptimal and fragmented, underscoring the urgency for a more cohesive strategy. The methodological choice of a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) with qualitative meta-synthesis across 28 articles positions this study as a rigorous attempt to consolidate existing empirical evidence and provide much-needed clarity on models, values, and success factors. The core findings offer valuable insights for both practitioners and policymakers. The identification of a hybrid approach, specifically combining project-based learning within the curriculum with extracurricular activities like "market day," as the most effective model is a significant contribution. This practical recommendation moves beyond theoretical discussions by illustrating how instrumental values such as honesty and responsibility, alongside intrinsic character traits like resilience, can be cultivated effectively. Furthermore, the emphasis on teachers' active agency and systemic school support as crucial determinants of success highlights the multifaceted nature of implementing such integrated programs, stressing that effective strategies require both pedagogical innovation and institutional backing. The study's strength lies in its systematic approach to synthesizing a disparate body of literature, offering a consolidated perspective that can inform future educational designs. By revealing that success is heavily dependent on specific pedagogical approaches and foundational support systems, the findings strongly advocate for a paradigm shift towards more contextual and holistic learning environments. This meta-synthesis provides a robust foundation for developing targeted professional development programs for teachers and for crafting school-wide policies that foster character and entrepreneurial skills from an early age, thereby laying essential groundwork for future research to test these models in diverse educational contexts.
