Abstract: Character Education at School: Understanding, Application Method, and the Role of Vision-mision, Staff Development, and Students' Character. The aims of this study were to describe teachers' understanding about character education, identify the application of methods of character education, and to identify the role of three main elements in the implementation of character education (vision-mision, staff development, and students' character). This qualitative study employed structured interviews and open questionnaire for data collection. The participants consist of twenty four teachers of PKn (Pancasila & Ke­warganegaraan) and PAI (Pendidikan Agama Islam) from different backgrounds. The results of the study indicate that most of the respondents confess that they understand the aims of character education, but they do not know how to apply them. The implementation of character education is still focused on students and the three main elements have no synergy in supporting the character education programs.
