Abstract

Technological developments in the 4.0 era had a negative influence on the
character of students, so that continuous efforts were needed through strengthening the
Pancasila character, as a solution to the degradation of student character. The negative
influence of technology has led to many cases related to sexual crimes, as a result of
social media exposure has become a major threat for elementary school children. This
study aims to analyze qualitatively the values of Pancasila which can provide character
strengthening for elementary school students to prevent the negative influence of social
media, especially cases of sexual crimes. This study uses a qualitative method of
literature study. The results of the study show that strengthening the character of
Pancasila values, namely the character values of faith, piety to God Almighty and noble
character have the potential to prevent sexual crimes originating from social media.
