INTRODUCTION
Discipline is a form of obedient behavior and is subject to applicable regulations, but compliance is
more emphasized on self-awareness not because of coercion (Milgram, 1963) (Anderson & Putterman, 2006).
However, in reality, many human disciplinary behaviors are motivated by coercion or restrictive rules
(Foucault, 2007). So the assumption that develops among the community that discipline means rigid and
scary.
Education is a part of life. Through education, human intelligence and skills are more honed and
tested in the face of increasingly complex dynamics of life (Teece, Pisano, & Shuen, 1997). Law No. 22 of
2003 states that schools are trying to implement school rules in an effort to shape the character and
civilization of a dignified nation and print the next generations of the nation in accordance with the
Indonesian human personality based on Pancasila through education, especially Citizenship Education.
Discipline is one of the most important life skills and needs to be possessed by everyone in order to
achieve success in life (Bridgstock, 2009; Cimatti, 2016; Senge, Cambron-McCabe, Lucas, Smith, & Dutton,
2012), not only success in learning but also success in social life. Discipline in the order in life when
specifically detailed and broken down from aspect by aspect will produce ethics as norms that apply in
association, including also in relations with the surrounding environment.
The purpose of this study was to determine the efforts of teachers to improve discipline through
Civics lessons and to find out the factors that became obstacles in the efforts of Civics teachers in improving
student discipline.

B. Special Findings
1. Interview with the principal
2. Interview with the homeroom teacher
3. Interviews with several students
From all interviews conducted, it can be concluded that the role of PPKn teachers in improving
discipline at SD Muhammadyah 2 Binjai Timur has been carried out by all teachers. With the motivation and
directions from the teacher, student discipline can be formed from the example of the teacher.
Then from the results of observations and interviews at the Muhammadiyah 2 Binjai Timur Private
Elementary School whose research has been carried out, it can be seen that the role of PKN teachers in
improving student discipline in schools has a fairly important role where the main role is in the teacher
workforce.
C. Discussion of Research Results
The results of interviews conducted with school principals, namely schools have developed
regulations, punishments, rewards, and consistency. In reality, the principal has implemented regulations for
the teacher and student councils through the application of punishment, rewards, and consistency. The
application of discipline in schools can be seen from how all students obey school rules, be orderly, and
disciplined to control their attitudes and behavior on a daily basis.
The results of observations made indicate that the socialization of the rules of conduct in schools is
quite good with the existence of a pocket book containing the rules that apply in schools that must be obeyed

by all students. In addition, efforts to socialize the rules of conduct at the Muhammadiyah 2 Binjai Timur
Private Elementary School were also carried out through MOS activities.
Awards for students who are disciplined in time, orderly, obedient, and achievers are not seen during
the researchers conducting research. However, based on the results of the interview, the principal revealed
that students who are obedient and always disciplined in obeying the rules will be given praise as "there is an
award for disciplined students, we give mass appreciation at the ceremony, and show respect for students".
This discipline is useful in teaching students to understand and behave well that every behavior will
be followed by punishment and reward. In addition, helping students develop control, direction, and provide
instruction in their conscience to guide their every action. If all students can think positively that being
disciplined is important, it will have a good impact on them where every action they act will be balanced by
self-control. The application of discipline in schools is seen from how students obey school rules, be orderly,
and disciplined in order to control their attitudes and behavior on a daily basis.
The results of interviews and observations of the principal in giving awards to students in the form of
words during the flag ceremony, to students who orderly participate in ceremonial activities. This is in
accordance with the results of the interview that: "At the school flag ceremony activities always give awards
in the form of advice, motivation, or congratulations for students who orderly participate in ceremonial
activities or students who have good achievements".
The principal's efforts in giving awards to students are quite frequent where every time there is an
activity the principal always gives rewards and motivation, although in practice awards in the form of objects
are rarely given and more awards are given at school in the form of words of instruction than gifts of objects,
because awards are in the form of words. words more quickly stimulate and motivate students.
Discipline has been applied by the Citizenship Education teacher at the Muhammadiyah 2 Binjai
Timur Private Elementary School. Efforts to improve discipline are not only carried out in learning, but in
every opportunity. Efforts to improve discipline through the learning process of Citizenship Education can be
seen from the syllabus and lesson plans.
CONCLUSION
The results of this study conclude that discipline is a process for training and educating a person's
behavior in accordance with the rules or regulations that apply either arising from his awareness or because of
sanctions or punishments that apply with a full sense of responsibility and wholeheartedly, so that if he does
something Violation will arise a feeling of guilt, shame, fear and do not want to do the act again. Student
discipline is the attitude or behavior of students who are obedient and obedient to be able to carry out their
obligations to study, both studying at school and studying at home.
