Introduction
Formal education, which is a place for students to learn from elementary to tertiary level, requires character education. Primary preventive-based schools require fundamental changes in the structure and learning process in schools to minimize the factors associated with students who are considered preventive [1], [2]. As a preventive alternative, education is expected to develop the quality of the nation's young generation in various aspects that can minimize and reduce the causes of various cultural problems and national character. Therefore, teachers have an important role in the learning process by instilling character education for students, so that they have a nation's character that can filter out various global influences and be able to develop the nation's character in daily life.
Concern from the government is evident in the importance of character education with the publication of the 2013 curriculum. This curriculum is a refinement of the 2006 curriculum KTSP curriculum, where character education is written explicitly on the Basic Competencies that teachers must apply in the learning process. Formal education also has the obligation to instill character education in students by issuing Government Regulation No. 87 of 2017 concerning Strengthening of Character Education (PPK). The regulation emphasized that the implementation of PPK is carried out on 1) Educational Unit for Formal Education; 2) Educational Unit for Non-formal Education pathway, and 3). Educational Unit Informal Education pathway. Whereas in the formal pathway, KDP can be carried out on intracurricular, co-curricular; and extracurricular [3].
Presidential Regulation No. 87 of 2017 concerning Strengthening of Character Education (PPK) article: 7 Implementation of PPK in intracuricular activities, as referred to in Article 6 paragraph (1) verse a, is a reinforcement of character values through activities to strengthen learning materials and learning methods in accordance with curriculum content based on legislation [4]. This explanation can be interpreted that character education must be given to students through subject matter and method of study following the curriculum content of the subjects.
Character education in the study of economics is expected to solve the economic problems encountered in meeting the needs of individuals or groups according to their physical capacity. Thus, students are not expected to bring problems to other people, the community, and the environment. The learning of economics based on character education can make students think broadly in all subjects so that they can increase social, religious, and cultural values automatically [5].
Economics subjects at the high school level based on the Minister of Education and Culture Regulation of the Republic of Indonesia Number 69 of 2013 concerning the Basic Framework and Curriculum Structure of Senior High Schools / Madrasah Aliyah has a character content on Basic Competence (KD) 1) in class X: Being honest, being disciplined , responsible, caring, creative, independent, critical, and analytical in overcoming economic problems, 2) in class XI: Being honest, disciplined, responsible, caring, creative, and independent in efforts to overcome development problems in Indonesia, 3) in class XII: Being honest, disciplined, responsible, caring, polite, responsive, and proactive in conducting trade activities and international economic cooperation as well as in conducting the accounting stages of service and trade companies [6].
The explanation shows that character education is a national movement that makes schools (formal education) as agents to build the character of students through learning and modeling. Therefore, the teacher has an important role in the success of instilling character education in students so that they become students who have achievement and character. Moreover, high school students are teenagers who have unstable personalities and seek an identity to form permanent characters. Education in adolescence becomes an important moment and determines a person's character as an adult. Based on these problems, the researcher wants to study more deeply about 1) how to plan character education in learning economic subjects in high school based on the 2013 curriculum, 2) how to implement character education in learning economic subjects in high schools based on the 2013 curriculum, and 3) how to evaluate Implementation character education in the study of economic subjects in high school based on the 2013 curriculum.

The Concept of Character Education
Character as an inner tendency can be relied upon to respond to situations in a morally good way. He added that the character contained has three interrelated parts, namely moral knowledge, moral feelings, and moral behavior [7]. Character education is not only to teach what is right and what is wrong in children but also instills good that is understood, felt, and wants to be done well by students. Character education is a mission similar to moral education or moral education [8]. Character traits should include but are not limited to, courage, good judgment, integrity, civility, kindness, perseverance, responsibility, tolerance, self-discipline, respect for school personnel, responsibility for school safety, service to others and good citizenship [9]. Therefore, education is a more important factor, not only to equip the new generation with skills that are essential for earning livelihoods but also to create among them an awareness of social and environmental realities and to instill in them a scientific temperament, independence of mind and soul. These things are very important for students who will be responsible citizens [10]. Thus, character education is a process of cultural inheritance and a national character to students to behave in a variety of virtues that are believed and used as a basis for perspective, thinking, behaving, and acting to improve the quality of community and nation living in the future.

Character Value
Based on the Development of Culture and Nation Character in 2010, there are 18 national characters, which are religious, honest, tolerance, discipline, hard work, creative, independent, democratic, curiosity, national spirit, love of the motherland, respect for achievement, friendship / communicative, peace-loving, fond of reading, caring about the environment, caring socially, and responsible [11].
The six characters which are pillars in character education are trust, justice, caring, respecting, good citizenship, and responsibility [7]. IHF developed the "Character-based Holistic Education" model. The curriculum used is the "Character-based Integrated Curriculum." There are nine pillars of character in the curriculum, namely: (1) God's love and God's creation; (2) independence and responsibility; (3) honesty / trustworthy; (4) respect and courtesy; (5) generous, care for help and mutual assistance/cooperation; (6) confident and hardworking; (7) leadership and justice; (8) kind and humble, and; (9) tolerance, peace and unity [12]. The main character values that are at the core of the application of character among students in school are honesty (from the heart), intelligence (from if thought), toughness (from sports), and caring (from taste and intention) [13].
Character values based on Government Regulation No 87 of 2018 on Strengthening Character Education confirms the Strengthening of Character Education (PPK) implemented by applying Pancasila values in character education primarily covering religious values, honesty, tolerance, discipline, hard-working, creative, independent, democratic, curiosity, national spirit, love of the motherland, respect for achievement, communicative, love for peace, love to read, care about the environment, care about social, and responsible [3].
Based on the curriculum structure of high school economics classes, X-XII, character education planted by students is honest, disciplined, responsible, polite, 306 The Implementation of Character Education in Indonesia High School Curriculum Program responsive and proactive, caring, creative, independent, and critical. Various opinions about the character values embedded in students aim to equip the cultural values and national character of students. The implementation of character education at the school level from each level and school is not the same. The application of character can be adjusted to the condition of the school such as supporting facilities and infrastructure, school culture, and the condition of students. However, the characteristics chosen to be applied in schools need to be determined by teachers and principals, which are planned to start from the vision, mission, and curriculum of the school unit level.
The purpose of Cultural Education and Nation Character was 1) developing the potential of the conscience / affective of students as human beings and citizens who have cultural values and national character; 2) develop the habits and behavior of students who are praiseworthy and in line with universal values and national cultural traditions that are religious; 3) instilling the spirit of leadership and responsibility of students as the next generation of the nation; 4) develop students' abilities to become independent, creative, national-minded human beings; and 5) developing the school life environment as a learning environment that is safe, honest, full of creativity and friendship, and with a high and strong sense of nationality (dignity) [11].

The Learning Process in the 2013 Curriculum
The learning process in the 2013 curriculum includes the development of the domains of attitude, knowledge, and skills that are elaborated for each education unit. The three competency domains have different trajectories (psychological processes). Attitudes are obtained through the activities of "accepting, executing, appreciating, experiencing, and practicing." Knowledge is gained through the activities of "remembering, understanding, applying, analyzing, evaluating, creating." Skills are obtained through the activities of "observing, asking, trying, reasoning, presenting, and creating." The characteristics of competence along with differences in acquisition pathways also influence the standard characteristics of the process. [4] The explanation can be interpreted that the learning process can develop the realm of attitudes, knowledge, and skills together and integrated according to the competencies to be achieved. The learning process can provide opportunities for students to carry out activities in the realm of attitudes, knowledge, and skills.
The learning method based on the 2013 curriculum uses a scientific approach, thematically integrated between subjects, and thematic in one lesson. Meanwhile, the learning method uses the active student learning method in the learning process. The learning methods include (discovery/inquiry learning), project-based, and problem-based. All three methods use a scientific approach in their implementation.
Some recommendations of learning methods in implementing character education in schools are: 1) Incorporating the concept of character in each learning manner, a) Instilling the value of goodness in children (knowing the good). Instilling self-concept in children each will enter the subject matter; b) Making a way that makes children have a reason or desire to do good. c) Give some examples to children about the character being built; d) Develop an attitude of loving good deeds to children; e) Apply character in the learning process. 2) Make slogans that can foster good habits in all student behavior. 3) Continuous monitoring, this is a manifestation of the implementation of character building. 4) The parental assessment has a vital role in building the character of children because parents have more time for children than the school [14].
Based on this explanation, character education development can be done through curriculum content, learning and assessment processes, relationship quality, handling or managing subjects, managing schools, implementing activities, empowering infrastructure, financing, and the work ethic of all people and the school environment. Besides, the teacher has a big role in the success of character planting; therefore, teachers should provide role models for good character.
Character education is not a slogan or course but a school mission that is embedded in school daily life [15]. In other words, an educational policy must lead to the realization of moral education in the school system. Together with parents, teachers and school administrators as stakeholders must join this curriculum to encourage students to realize good values in student life.

The Evaluation of Character Education in the Learning Process
Process assessment based on Process Standard No. 22 of 2016 is explained as follows. Assessment of the learning process uses an authentic assessment approach that evaluates students' readiness, process, and learning outcomes as a whole [4]. The integrated assessment of the three components will illustrate the capacity, style, and learning outcomes of students who can produce instructional effects (instructional effects) on aspects of knowledge and the impact of accompaniment (nurturant effect) on aspects of attitude.
Authentic assessment results are used by teachers to plan remedial learning programs, enrichments, or counseling services. Also, authentic assessment results take part as material in improving the learning process per Education Assessment Standards. Evaluation of the learning process is carried out during the learning process by using tools: observation sheets, peer questionnaires, recordings, anecdotal notes, and reflections. Evaluation of learning outcomes is carried out during the learning process and at Universal Journal of Educational Research 8(1): 304-312, 2020 307 the end of the lesson, a unit using methods and tools: oral / deed tests, and written tests. The final evaluation results are obtained from a combination of process evaluation and evaluation of learning outcomes ".

The Implementation of Character Education in
Learning Economic Science Subjects The implementation of character education is done through intracuricular and extracurricular activities. This explains that character education must be given to students through subject matter and method of learning under the contents in the curriculum of the subject [4].
Implementation of intra-curricular character education is carried out in the process of learning economic subjects in the form of, singing the Indonesia Raya song together which is led by one of the students and continued with prayer, led by the class leader. This activity embeds the attitude of religious character and patriotism. The application of this attitude is a reflection of the values of the nation's character in accordance [11] which describes the development of culture and national character.
Character education is poorly defined within recent government initiatives and policy documents and it appears as though that ambiguity is reflected at the level of teacher education in universities and schools [19]. The embedding of the character's attitudes in the learning process is reflected in the learning methods used by teachers referring to learning objectives and learning material. The attitude of the character that is instilled in the learning process is not 310 The Implementation of Character Education in Indonesia High School Curriculum Program directly is honest, disciplined, responsible, caring, creative, independent, critical, analytical, polite, responsive and proactive.

To encourage the ability of students to produce contextual work, both individually and in groups, it is strongly recommended to use a learning approach that produces work based on problem-solving (project-based learning) [4] The economics teacher in the learning process has been able to develop the realm of attitudes, knowledge, and skills together and integrated according to the competencies to be achieved. The learning process is designed to provide opportunities for students to carry out activities in the realm of attitude, knowledge, and skills.
In addition to the learning process, Boyolangu High School also requires literacy activities every Wednesday and Saturday for 30 minutes. This literacy activity is obliging students to read reading books in the library according to their interests; even this activity has been contested. The purpose of this activity is to cultivate students who love to read.

The Implementation of Character Education in Extracurricular Activities
The inculcation of the character of social science students' attitudes on economics is carried out through the implementation of daily life through extracurricular activities namely cooperatives, scouts, and social activities. In cooperative activities, students are trained to carry out cooperative management to play a role in managing cooperatives.

Every student is required to become a member of a cooperative. Savings required per month 2000 rupiah is paid at the beginning of each year together with SPP payments. Principal and mandatory savings will be returned when students graduate. This cooperative management will instill honesty, responsibility, independence, responsibility, discipline, hard work, responsiveness, and dare to take risks. Besides this cooperative management will provide knowledge, skills, and attitudes to students in cooperative management that can support understanding economic subjects, and can be used as a provision to plunge in the community.
In extracurricular scout activities, students are trained in entrepreneurship. Students are trained to sell cakes to their themes during breaks or in the teacher's lounge. This activity will instill honesty, responsibility, independence, discipline, hard work, responsiveness, and dare to take risks. This activity can provide knowledge, skills, and characteristics of an entrepreneur who can be used as an entrepreneurial provision.
Social activities are also carried out every year during the fasting month by providing benefits to orphans around Tulungagung Regency. Social care activities are also carried out when his or her friend cannot participate in activities. For example, when one person cannot pay the study tour fee, then the other friends in one class will make contributions so that the student can participate. This activity instills an attitude of social care, religious, tolerance, and friendship.
Thus, Tulungagung Public High School has implemented the 2013 curriculum specifically the Social Sciences department that has instilled character education for 18 national characters namely religious, honest, tolerance, discipline, hard work, creative, independent, democratic, curiosity, national spirit, love of the motherland, respect for achievement friendly/communicative, peace-loving, fond of reading, caring for the environment, caring socially and responsibly [10] while applying the character found in the values of Pancasila [13]. In addition to these characters, some characters are instilled in students to strengthen economic subjects, namely the cultivation of the character of entrepreneurial spirit, among others, dare to take risks, thorough and confident.

Character education requires young people can judge what is true, very concerned about what is true, and then doing what is right, even in the face of external pressures and temptations from within [20], because they must get welfare with respect to their self-concept. Nature educators in building character are must strive to help students perform charitable acts, polite, and self-discipline repeatedly.
Evaluation of Character Education in learning economic subjects is carried out every basic competency by authentic assessment Evaluation is carried out using written tests, oral tests and giving structured or unstructured tasks. The attitude assessor is done with the rubric of assessment at the time of discussion and task completion. Whereas, the assessment of extracurricular activities does not yet have a special assessment sheet to measure attitudes. Assessors are measured by the attendance and involvement of students in this activity.

Conclusions
Based on the results of the field research, it can be concluded that Boyolangu Public High School and Kedugwaru Public High School, which are the 2013 Curriculum pilot school in Tulungagung Regency in the implementation of Character Education in economic subjects especially in the Social Sciences major are carried out as follows: 1. The learning plan includes a Syllabus, lesson plan, and material made by economics teacher through MGMP. The attitude of the characters that will be instilled in students in the learning process is already contained in the syllabus and lesson plans. The attitude of the characters contained in the syllabus, lesson plans, and subject matter is an attitude of religious and social character contained in the basic competencies of economic subjects based on the 2013 curriculum. Planting characters in the learning process is carried out starting from the preliminary activities, the implementation of learning and the closing activities. Other intracuricular activities to inculcate character are literacy and reading Yasin or other short surahs. 2. The implementation of character education is conducted through intra-curricular and extra-curricular activities that support the competence of economic subjects. In intracuricular planting of character education through the learning process that is reflected in the learning methods used. Whereas in extracurricular character education planting through cooperative management activities, scouts, social care. Character education that has been carried out is 18 national characters and at the same time the application of Pancasila values. In addition to the 18 national characters, the cultivation of characters that can support knowledge, skills, and attitudes of economic learning is applied, namely the character of the entrepreneurial spirit (cooperative management and entrepreneurship) in the form of planting a risk-taking, thorough and confident attitude. 3. The Evaluation of the implementation of character education has been carried out by economics teachers through written tests, oral tests, structured assignments, and unstructured assignments. The evaluation of investment characterization is evaluated during the process and results. The teacher has also prepared a guide to attitude assessment and results from assessment guidelines. While the research guidelines for instilling attitude toward character do not yet exist, while the assessment is based on the presence and involvement in activities. 4. The obstacle of teachers in implementing education in learning economic subjects is found in students, especially in students who are not smart. Less clever students cannot follow the lessons like their friends who are quick to understand the material. Therefore, in addition to the consistent implementation of intra-curricular and extra-curricular activities, meaningful learning needs to be carried out that emphasizes the concept of decaying all students and special attention to students not or less intelligent, for example through scaffolding treatment.

Suggestion
Based on the findings, the researcher suggests that character inculcation through extracurricular activities needs to be improved so that it can strengthen character planting in subjects. The assessment of character attitudes on extracurricular activities needs to be done by making guidelines for character attitude assessment.
Teachers have a big role in the success of character education. Therefore teachers must be able to give examples of the application of character in daily life at school and in the community if the teacher has the character so easily able to overcome the obstacles in the application of character, especially in the learning process.
