Abstract

Implementation of boarding school system is based on the consideration to achieve the goal of more holistic education, so as to produce graduates who not only excel in academic but also personality or character. The boarding system as an integral part of pre-service teacher education process serves as a vehicle for character formation, the cultivation of religious moral values, and academic enrichment. The focus of this research is on the product aspect, which is to measure, interpret, and evaluate the result of the dormitory program for students of UPH Faculty of Education in improving the teacher's competence in the field of character and personality. By using the model of CIPP program evaluation, the research results showed that the dormitory program from 2013-2015 was quite satisfactory in shaping the personality of pre-service teachers. Pre-service teachers and alumni of UPH Faculty of Education from the class of 2013-2015 opined and have found that dormitory program was very helpful in training the implementation of discipline, responsibility, independence, and thoughtfulness both during the time they were still students and when they have become teachers in their own classroom paying attention to each student, responding to students¡¯ mistakes, and even addressing issues faced with fellow co-workers. If it is seen from the attitude of students expected from the dormitory program, which are the thoughtfulness and responsibility of the students that are in the good category, then this is in line with the result of personality competence of teachers who are alumni of Pelita Harapan University ¨C Faculty of Education.
