Abstract

This study is to investigate character education’s concept as it is implemented toward Indonesian millenial generation. This study, specifically, aims to investigate how character building is integrated into ELT, also how the strengths and weaknesses faced should be implemented and identified. The participants were fifteen secondary English teachers in Indonesia who are selected from different provinces in Indonesia. Moreover, the findings show that teachers perceive character education as a good idea in building nation’s character. It also reveals that teachers have done it unconsciously before the program is launched. The application of character education may be incorporated into ELT materials design which have integrated skills for EFL classroom. By providing various types of tasks containing moral values may assist students to understand character education rather than learning a foreign language. Some aspects which affected to the character education’s implementation are teachers’ willingness and competence, students’ cooperation, the availability of teaching materials sources, schools and environments’ support. In short, incorporating character education in ELT design, it can be impetus for imbuing moral virtues into learners’ lives. To this end, moral values provide personally, socially, and situated context for learning English
