Abstract

This paper discusses and proposes Historical Empathy as a learning model in studying Indonesian history. The research was conducted as a response to the demand of the revised edition of Curriculum 2013 policy about the need to strengthen character education. The aim of this paper is to introduce Historical Empathy as an effort to strengthen character education through the study of history. The discussion and offer of Historical Empathy is obtained through literature study, from which conceptual framework and the learning model of Historical Empathy are proposed in the study of Indonesian history. The learning model is expected to be implemented by the practitioners of history education (teacher dan lecturer) in building the students’ character by instilling important behavioral values from the studied historical figures. Through this learning model, students are cognitively and affectively exposed to stories of a number of prominent figures so that they can contextualize the life experience of historical figures learned. The strengthening of historical empathy to the learners is trained through three aspects, namely historical contextualization, historical perspective taking and affective connection with the past. The learning model Historical Empathy is done in four phases: introduction, investigation, display, and reflection. Students are invited to explore the contexts and perspectives of a history of historical figures and are affectively connected to the life experiences of the historical figures.
