Education ,
What is it ? and how is it works? Education is one of the
most important thing in human life. Education is not really about a ‘’formal’’
education only but also , the course , lesson and everything.For me education
is really important for leading our future , some people say education is our
stock , is our well known as preparation for our future. I also agree if
education cant always rule our future not realy. There is a lot of people in
the world that is success without finished their education program. But one
thing that you shouldnt forget that they were a cretive , an inovative people .
they can do that without their degree but they have inovation that came from
their experience , so far eperience is the best teacher that i know. But where
can we find our experience? For me we can found it with education , this place
called SCHOOL.
In indoneisa(my country) our education is divided by 4 level
, first kindergarten this level may occured for 2 years, and second was
elementary school this level is contain
about 12 semester or you can finished it for 6years but if you were smart some
school offered accelaration class so you cand finished it for 5 years. And than on the next level
there are Junior High School proram , this program is contain about 6 semester
and also for some school that have an acceleration you can finished it for 2
years and also about the senior high school. But in indonesia you may start
choose your spescially subject starting from highschool not junnior highschool
and it also just contained with 3 choises(but someschool just offered 2choises)
there are bahasa,IIS(sosial),and Mia(matematika ipa) before new curriculum has
been used , the student start choosing their subject from grade 2 but now we
should choose it from the first grade.
Talking about the new curriculum in indonesia or may be called as “kurikulum
2013” or Kurtilas, they have positive and negative thing , starting from the
negative side.i have a queation first , did all the material has ready for this
new curriculum? And did all the person and system has ready ? all the teachers?
And students? I dont think so , cause its little bit different than the old
curriculum and some people said that this newest curriculum making students to
being more active than before , the teachers just came and give the first
materi and than all the duty and everything is the student responsibilty but In curriculum 2013, education hoped to be
more focus on building character. This is evidenced by reduction some subjects
in elementary school. In the first until third years students in elementary
school will be oriented on nature, social and culture. So, I believe it will be
very useful to make students have a strong and good character for their next
future.
Curriculum 2013 also apply thematic integrative system in all subjects. I
think it’s a good system. Because some subjects as Indonesian language is
supposed to be use in all subjects. It will increase student’s knowledge about
Indonesian language. Because actually Indonesian language is an applied
science. So, by using Indonesian language in all subject will make student
understand what exactly the essential from this subject. So that was what i
think about the newest curriculum , about education in indonesia and i think we
shouldnt complain about it right now because our future is waiting for us ,
just take it easy and take it as a ticket for your better and bright future.
