Nia Ifatul Mufidah, Leonita Leonita, Wening Sahayu, Lusi Nurhayati

Abstract

This study describes the application of a perennial perspective in teaching politeness and its impact on students' character development, particularly in the context of Indonesian language education. Using a qualitative research approach, this study employed content analysis of existing literature on perennials and politeness in educational settings. Data collection techniques used were reading and note-taking, enriched by literature review and documentation studies. The research findings indicate that incorporating a perennial perspective in teaching politeness increases students' moral awareness and strengthens their capacity for ethical and empathetic communication. Perennialism, which emphasizes timeless moral principles, offers a strong foundation for cultivating politeness, particularly in an era of rapid social and technological change. This study contributes to the growing body of literature on how a perennial approach can positively impact the moral and social dimensions of language learning.
