Within such diversities, there are significant values to develop the national character, one of them being that of Reog Ponorogo. The purpose of this research is to reveal that the art of Reog is attractive and full of magnificent values. During this reform era, in which corruptible practices and radicalism are rampant, the values contained in the Reog art can be used as a foundation for better national character building. The methods used in this study were hermeneutics and heuristics. The former was employed to disclose the meaning contained in the research object in the form of life phenomenon through understanding and interpretation, while the latter was used to discover and develop other new methods in science especially philosophy. The result of this research is that the art of Reog Ponorogo is part the typically original culture from Ponorogo. When viewed from the perspective of hierarchical values, Reog contains holiness, spiritual, living, and joyful values.

The values of Reog art can be used as a source of inspiration and may contribute to the character building of the nation. What needs to be presented is the strengthening of the four pillars of the nation and the reflection of the five essential virtues of the Reog art.

Degradation of moral consciousness, especially in the politic and Indonesian government bureaucracy, in recent times that was pictured by various anomalies and immorality, such as a corruption, has become a negative “cultural norm”, which seem very difficult to be controlled. The condition of national spirit and morality suggested the need of redevelopment of model of character education (character building) as a national healing. Imam Zarkasyi implemented several principles of character building in the Pesantren of Darussalam Gontor. He taught his pupils on the basis of the virtues of the excellences with refer to the Panca Jiwa and the Four Mottos of Modernity of the Pesantren as their living values. His reformative efforts in the context of contemporary Islamic education are actually intended to the development of character, in other words, “character building”, by implementing the principle of the Golden Mean of Ibn Miskawaih. Some aspects of Zarkasyi's principles of education that might be supportive for developing the national character education program, and still relevant for today are: firstly, moral education should have the leadership insights; secondly, moral education should have the objective moral values as the teleological purposes; thirdly, moral education should be built through the best environment, in order to be optimized and efficient; and fourthly, moral education curriculum should be integrated and comprehensive. So, the Zarkasyi's concept of character building, and the education movement became the concept of character education that quite mature and should be extracted by our nation.

The Tarbiyah (education) movement in Indonesia today is the best known and has the largest number of members amongst groups in the Dakwah (proselytising) movement that mostly work in Indonesian campuses. However, in contrast to other Islamic revivalist organizations, the Tarbiyah movement, is reformist, and relies heavily on modern interpretations of Islam concerned with democracy, civil society, human rights and equality of women, although these values are understood differently from common Western notions. The group has many female activists but unfortunately until today there has never been any study looking at the ways women has involved in this Tarbiyah movement. This paper aims to explore the numerous and varieties of women‟s activities in this movement, especially in relation the ways women see their rights, roles and sexual identities within their notion of piety. Female and male activists of Tarbiyah movement in Airlangga University (UNAIR), Surabaya State University (UNESA) and Institute of Technology Surabaya (ITS) are respondents in this research. Participation observation and in-depth interviews will used as techniques of data collection. Some finding shows that the Tarbiyah movement‟s espousal of women‟s and gender issues in an Islamic setting complicates even more the dissemination of such issues to the Indonesian public. One important finding indicates that the Tarbiyah conceives that male and female are segregated in nature (biological construction) yet in that segregation lies irreplaceable equality in any sphere and any value. Although many female members of the Tarbiyah movement claim to reject feminism, in particular they reject liberation of women‟s (and men‟s) sexuality, as it is believed to be of Western origin, in fact they subscribe to concepts of sexual equality while maintaining sexual segregation. The rise of the Dakwah movement and its various groups has raised concern in Indonesian society that such groups may pose a threat to civil Islam. However, to see all groups in the Dakwah movement as militant, radical or even fundamentalist is wrong, the complexity of Islamic movements requires careful examination as within these movements groups are fragmented in terms of their interpretations of Islam and its application. Teaching of this Dakwah movement can also be an alternative to national character building as its teachings and morale are in accordance to the values of Indonesian national characters such as honesty, religiousness and others.

Citizenship and social education education plays a role in the development and development of character in the younger generation, if the contribution given by citizenship and social studies education is successful in directing the young generation today to contribute to the national character. Therefore, it is very necessary to have an understanding of the character of the nation itself and provide a way for the development of the nation's character. the development of superior national character has existed since the republic was proclaimed on August 17, 1945. Our first national leader, Bung Karno, had stated the need for nation and character buildings. Although the statement is in a political context, it explicitly implies that Indonesia's development is not enough just to develop physically but must include building the character and culture of the nation. Some national figures of this nation such as Ki Hadjar Dewantoro also mentioned the need for character building as an integral part of national development. One effort that can realize these characters is using or injecting an educational institution that is very close to each of the nation's next generation. A media needs to be implemented namely through a course and citizenship education and social studies subjects
