Interaction of Teachers with Students as Role Models
Personality is an element that determines the interaction of teachers with students as role models, teachers must have personalities that can be used as profiles and idols, all life is a perfect figure. That is the impression of the teacher as an ideal figure. The teacher is a student in kindness. With a good teacher, students will become good. There is no teacher who intends to plunge his students into the valley of evil. The teacher is the spiritual father or spiritual father of a student, because he who gives spiritual nourishment and moral education, provides the path of truth. So respecting teachers means respecting students, respecting teachers means respect for the children of the nation.
Education carried out by teachers in the learning process in schools and communities requires competence in the broadest sense of the ability standards needed to describe a person's qualifications both qualitatively and quantitatively in carrying out their duties. Teacher personality competencies include attitude (values), values (personality), personality (personality) as an element of behavior (behavior) in relation to the ideal performance in accordance with the field of work based on educational background, capacity building and training, and legality teaching authority. Following are some notions of personality competence, among others, as follows.
What is meant by personality competence in Government Regulation No.19 of 2005, in article 28, paragraph 3 is the ability of a steady, stable, mature, wise, and authoritative personality, being an example for students, and having good character.
According to Samani, Mukhlas (2008: 6) in detail the personality competencies include the following matters; a) noble, b) wise and wise, c) steady, d) authoritative, e) stable, f) mature, g) honest, h) set an example for students and the community, i) objectively evaluate their own performance, j ) wants to be ready to develop themselves independently and sustainably.
According to Djaman Satori (2007: 2.5) what is meant by personality competency is competence related to the personal behavior of the teacher himself who later must have noble values so that they are scattered in daily behavior.
Of the several meanings as mentioned above, what is meant by personality competence is competence related to the personal behavior of the teacher himself who later must have noble values so that it is reflected in daily behavior. This in itself is closely related to the philosophy of life that expects teachers to become human models who have noble values. In Indonesia, the personal attitude imbued by the Pancasila philosophy which glorifies the culture of the people who are willing to sacrifice for the preservation of the nation and the country is included in the teacher's personal competence. Thus the understanding of the teacher's personal competence must be interpreted as a manifestation of a complete human figure.
Someone who is a teacher sometimes does not always maintain the authority and image as a teacher in the eyes of students and the community. So there are still some teachers who defame the authority and image of the teacher. In the mass media it is often reported about unscrupulous teachers who commit an immoral, asocial, and immoral act. The act was not supposed to be done by the teacher. Therefore the teacher must maintain that image.
