An overview of the application of Active, Creative, Effective and Joyful Learning (ACEJL) in the success of a learning by adhering to the principles of 21st century skills that contain character which is a benchmark for educational success. The application of Active, Creative, Effective and Joyful Learning (ACEJL) was applied to both schools based on the Education Unit Level Curriculum and the 2013 Curriculum.

The implementation of the Active, Creative, Effective and Joyful Learning (ACEJL) strategy with Character Loads for junior high school students is overall well implemented and needs to be improved on several things, namely the understanding of educators about the model and students so that it has an impact on the final learning outcomes.
