/ Advocacy /

  Ten professional organizations united to form a coalition of teacher protection and urged the House of Representatives Commission X together with the Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education to establish strict regulations to protect the teaching profession. The professional organization is the association of the Indonesian school principal (ACTION), Association of Indonesian Supervisors (APSI), Indonesian Independent Teacher Federation (Fgii), Foundation Learning Teacher (GBF), Indonesian Teacher Association (IGI), Jaringan Sekolah Madrasah Belajar (School Learning Network) (JSMB), Komunitas Guru Belajar Nusantara (KGBN), Komunitas Pengawas Belajar Nusantara (Supervisor Learning Community) (Kbn), Nahdlatul Ulama Teacher Association (Pergunu), and Teacher Association throughout Indonesia (PGSI). This coalition is formed for concerns and concerns about cases of teacher criminalization as experienced by Supriyani, honorary teacher in Southeast Sulawesi, which can be experienced by other teachers in the future. "Although there are many glying efforts to the teacher's role, but ironically a little effort to protect the teaching profession. As a result, every time there is a learning dispute, The teacher is placed in the position of the sacrificed object,said Bukik Setiawan, Ketua GBF. "The state is responsible for protecting the teaching profession. Protecting teachers means carrying out the mandate of the constitution, Educate the life of the nation,"He continued straightforwardly. Achmad Zuhri, Deputy Chairperson of the Pergunu, highlighting that the vulnerability of the teacher to the bondage of law can have an impact on the decline in the quality of learning. "Disprudental legal actions against teachers can erode the enthusiasm of educators and threaten the quality of national education," he said. The amount of impact on unclear legal protection, need to be addressed with synergy that encourages the government, public, and educational organizations in formulating policies that support the teacher profession in a sustainable manner. "The importance of a clear legal umbrella, Like the revision of the teacher and lecturer law, or new regulations that protect teachers from the threat of criminalization during their carrying out the tasks according to the procedure,"Explained Zuhri. To strengthen the pressure, The coalition made the "three teacher protection demands that have been signed almost 3000 people (change.org/lindungiguru). These three demands include regulation on parental involvement in learning. Danang Hidayatullah, Chairperson of IGI, emphasizes that active and effective communication between school and parents is the key to supporting children. "The role of parents at home is very important in instilling values, ethics, and morals to shape the child's character. The activeness of parents in communicating with the teacher and the school can bridge the creation of a learning process that really sides with children," he said. "The protection of the teaching profession must be a common concern by involving the government's collective awareness, school, and parents,"Continued Danang. In line with Zuhri and Danang, Nunuk Riza Praise, Chairperson of KGBN, asserted that the issue of teacher protection is not only about protecting individual teachers but also has a close relationship with the interests of students and the quality of education as a whole. "This protection is not a shield for teachers to ignore professional responsibilities, It is precisely the basis for teachers to be more free to practice partiality in students,"Explained Nunuk. Through this petition, He hopes, The psychological well -being of teachers and students is guaranteed so as to create a positive learning atmosphere. Teachers who feel safe from physical threats and criminalization can be fully focused on student learning needs. "This protection is also the end to increase public confidence in education. The relationship between parents and students is built on the basis of mutual trust and mutual respect,” he concluded.

This workshop is part of the Financially Smart Creative Teacher bootcamp (GKCF) which has been going online for a month. In an online session, Participants learn to manage finances and create teaching media for students using design thinking principles. Meanwhile at the workshop, Participants were challenged to test prototypes of teaching media related to financial literacy. Teaching media is not intended for use by students but by fellow teachers. “This study scholarship is Bank BTPN's commitment to be a friend of teachers. We care about education and we believe that the spearhead of educational progress is teachers and we want to be with you,” said Dody Safrizal, Area Business Leader Pension Business & Area Head Jakarta in his speech.

Teaching Media Training: 3 Important Things When Designing a Prototype

/ Kampus Pemimpin Merdeka /

Anggayudha Ananda Rasa, or familiarly called Aye, Teacher Learning Foundation trainers returned to be speakers in learning sessions regarding teaching media. This session was held on Monday (9/9) online via Zoom and followed 800 participants in the “Financially Smart Creative Teacher” bootcamp scholarship program. After explaining the design thinking process for creating teaching media at the previous meeting, This time Aye explains in more depth the steps for designing a prototype. A teaching media prototype is an initial model of a teaching media that is created to be tested before there is a final version. Prototypes are generally made to test the functions or features of teaching media so that if there are things that are not suitable, can still be repaired. “There are three important things to pay attention to when designing a prototype, namely determining goals, determine how to get the data, and determine how to conclude the prototype results,” explained Aye. Read too: Making Meaningful Teaching Media Can Use Artificial Intelligence First, after determining the goal, teachers or instructional media makers need to explain what the indicators are of achieving these goals. “Nah, Here we also need to have a hypothesis or temporary guess,” explained Aye. “A good hypothesis is a hypothesis that can be tested, appropriate, and specific. For example, not 'I believe that students will like this water cycle board game', but rather 'I believe more than 50% Students will love this game because the easy way to play helps them learn the water cycle material.', it's clearer and makes it easier for us to create indicators, right??,” Aye continued. He also confirmed, Don't get caught up in forming difficult hypotheses, but rather focuses on the purpose of creating teaching media. If the goal is that students understand the material, then make sure from the hypothesis to the conclusion it is in that direction. Also read: Guru Belajar Foundation Launches Financial Smart Program Then to collect data, Aye gave an example from his experience. Data can be collected from surveys of students, direct observation when students use teaching media, provide assessments to students, to reflection. Then the teaching media developer can conclude the results of the prototype, anything that needs to be improved or is already good. "On the way to make teaching media, in this case the prototype, You need to keep remembering that good teaching media is not physically good, but which is useful for students, aimed at students. So the basic question is whether the teaching media is appropriate to students' learning needs?,” closed Aye. (Yosi)
