“The new reformisms of education for our nation”

Assalamu alaikum wr.wb.

The honorable judges representing, to all of the teachers here attending, and to all of the audiences, ladies and gentlemen, good evening everyone!

First of all, let us thank  to Allah SWT  because of His blessings, we all can gather here on this event.

Shalawat and prayer we will say to our greatest prophet, Muhammad SAW, his family, his friends, and all of his followers. Amen!

In this opportunity, I would like to tell you my speech about The new reformisms of education for our nation   

The growing quantity of school age children and a large fast growing of each education graduates, were not followed by the enough and fast addition of infrastructure and education facilities. It causes problems for the government to provide "education and teaching" for all citizens as mandated by Basic State Law.

This issue is crucial because we have the various levels of social-economic-cultural differences. Then for the first time, the application of Repelita (rencana pembangunan lima tahun or five years development planning) with emphasis on economic development is seen as the foundation for other aspects of national development. In education reform focused attention on efforts to repair and increase the quality of regulation and the opportunity to education.

Concerning about this, it is so hard to achieve only if we use a conventional way of the technology and communication, information, radio and television. In 2007 the government has set a national budget for education of 20% for primary, junior secondary and senior secondary school. Programs and activities that are not made solely on the basis of growing number of school buildings, teachers, books and others.

We can identify several alternatives, as follows:

1. Adding the capacity of high school that applied together with the addition of new schools.

2. Increasing the capacity of private schools.

3. Development of open schools with the media of correspondence, modules, radio broadcasting, television and others.

4. The establishment of the practical skills courses outside of school for society.

Ki Hajar Dewantara (1889-1959) was an educational figure who established education institution in the Taman Siswa. He was familiar with the philosophy of "tut wuri handayani, hing madya mangun karsa, hing ngarso sung tulada".

Dewantara classify education goal with the term of "tri-nga" (three “nga”, as “nga” is the last letter in the Javanese alphabet).

The first "Nga" is "ngerti"(understanding or intellectual aspects),

The second "Nga" is "ngrasa" (experiencing or affection aspects),

And the third "nga" is "nglakoni" (or aspects of teaching psychomotoric).

Formulate educational goals that include aspects of cognitive, affective, and psychomotor. According to Dewantara, it is the right of each person to set himself, therefore teaching must educate children to become independent in mind, thought and energy. Teaching should not only focus on intellectual mind because it can separate the educated people with others.

Finally, I hope the Indonesian people to improve and achieve more and create child-students more productive, creative, innovative and useful for the nation and country, creating high quality human resources that can be independent and meet the needs of universe.

At last …..

Wassalamualaikum wr.wb.

mudah-mudahan bermanfaat...............amien.....!!!!
