Abstract

This study aims to analyze the role of Pancasila and Citizenship Education (PPKn) learning in fostering a spirit of mutual cooperation in grade XI students of Albukhory Private Vocational High School Rantau Prapat. The study used a qualitative approach with descriptive methods. Data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation with informants including PPKn teachers, students, the vice principal for curriculum, and homeroom teachers. Data analysis used the Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña model through the stages of data condensation, data presentation, and drawing conclusions and verification. The results showed that PPKn learning through group discussions, collaborative activities, and simple projects played a role in developing students' mutual cooperation. The role of teachers as facilitators, mentors, and role models encouraged increased participation, social awareness, responsibility, and the ability to work together. The success of learning was supported by school culture, social relationships between students, and co-curricular activities. Meanwhile, differences in student character, limited time, and classroom conditions were the main obstacles. This study concludes that PPKn learning contributes to fostering a spirit of mutual cooperation through collaborative habits and teacher role models, so that it is necessary to strengthen learning strategies and provide continuous support to the school environment.
