What if digital games are included in the education curriculum?

            Talking about games, as you know, games are one of the things that develop as time goes gets more complicated and becomes more fun for some people. The games are indiscriminate. Boy or girl, rich or poor can play games as much as they want. So that’s why many people are addicted to playing games, especially games online. Briefly, games become one of the important elements in entertainment. And what if the games are included in the education curriculum?

            In nowadays, there are many types of games that are combined into learning activities for schools. It can be said that incorporating games into the school and classroom environment is no longer taboo. Due to the increasingly digital development of the era, games have also spread rapidly online, known as online games. Online games were also recognized and classified by the former Minister of Youth and Sports, Imam Nahrawi, during his tenure as eSport (electronic sport) into the educational curriculum. And this policy was continued by the current Minister of Youth and Sports, Zainudin Amali. Of course, games have positive benefits, especially in the pandemic period. Games can be used as an activity that can be done to fill spare time. However, to be officially included in the educational curriculum does not feel quite right.          

If it happens, in my opinion, it is likely to shift the priority of regular subjects. Students will be more attracted to the game. When it is prohibited there are still many students who play games even less if it is facilitated or included in the education curriculum. And as I said before, the games are always developed, then the school tuitions may increase and parents must facilitate their children so they are not left behind.

            I think it is fair to say, I do not fully agree if digital games are included in the curriculum because it is better to focus or improve the existing curriculum, in my opinion. If it must include in the curriculum, it is enough used as extracurricular only.

My Experience Learning English

Some people believe that learning a foreign language other than a mother tongue is something that must be occupied. I will stand up earnestly and say that I agree with their opinions. I think it would be good if everyone was interested in learning a foreign language which could then be used as a second language. But of course, learning a foreign language for a second language requires a process that is not short. I believe that the process is a guarantor of how valuable the experience will be.

Talk about foreign languages ​​and second languages, if you ask what language do I learn other than my mother tongue? Then my answer is English. So it can be said that English is a foreign language which is my second language. Learning English while in junior high school was my first experience in learning a second language. The first thing that I realized when learning a second language was that learning another language other than my mother tongue was not easy. I remember that I was open-mouthed when I heard my English teacher spoke and explained the materials in English. I'm open-mouthed not because of expressing that ‘Ah... I got the point’ but it’s because I don't understand what my teacher said so I'm unconsciously open-mouthed. If I remember that I would think that's quite funny and embarrassing at the same time. However, it did not take a long time for me to admit that I overly loved to learn English.

            There are many reasons why I learn English. The main reason is that I loved and interested in learning English as a second language. I think if someone loves something, they will try hard to be able to successfully achieve what they love. Therefore, I tried hard to learn English because I want to succeed in achieving what I love. Being a master in English also provides benefits which in my opinion are very useful for everyday life even for my future. English is an international language and considered the most important language in the world. English makes everything easy for me such as to find information and knowledge for my academic and even entertainment aspect for my daily life. Last but not least, learning English is fun and gives me satisfaction. So there is no doubt for me to learn English.

Learning something new certainly makes us sense new experiences too. So did I when I learned English for the first time. For the first time, I learned English when I was in junior high school which is because English is a subject that must be learned. Unfortunately, when I was in junior high school I was very aware that my ability to understand and use English was very lacking. One day my English teacher asked "Did you understand what I said?" and I, who was trying to understand the material answered with the unsure expression "Hm... yes, Sir". My unsure expression made me be laughed at by my classmates. It made me sad. I also want to understand but I can't. I almost gave up learning English at that time. Day by day until I became a fresh student of senior high school, I realized that it might be true that as we grow older, the stronger we desire to achieve our dreams. In high school, I tried hard not to give up learning English. And my English teacher supports me. She encouraged me to be confident and not give up. I remember when she smiled when I showed a news report video in front of the class and she said my video was the best among my classmates. How happy I am to hear that. Learning English makes me realize that I got so many experiences.

Learning a new language is never easy. Therefore, everyone must have the best strategy used to learn languages. My best strategy in learning English is to believe in myself. Convince me that one day I will be able to master every skill in English. The trick is to develop various other learning strategies such as determining study plans, setting learning targets, self-motivation, etc. In my opinion, although the environment and the people around us support us, we are not confident, it will certainly be difficult to enable an increase in learning. I always say to myself, if others can do it, then I can do it as well. Those are my motivational words. But behind my self-confidence, I always try not to give up and overcome my weaknesses. To be honest, from every skill in English I feel I am not good at speaking skills. So I try to practice speaking in English as often as possible. Spending and managing time is an important point so that the strategies that I have been set can be implemented properly. In the end, how valuable the experience you get is you determine it by yourself. And for me learning English is a valuable experience.

 

Hellooo everyone!

Nice to see you again in "It's Story Time!" update. In this update I will share a short story that I wrote entitled 'The Perfect Life'. And I'll share it in two versions, the English version and the Indonesian version. Enjoy your reading time!

The Perfect Life

English version

In a beautiful and shady forest, live various kinds of animals. There is a rabbit who always plays cheerfully around the forest with the deer, his friend. There is an elephant who always looks engrossed in playing and drinking river water through his long trunks. There is a monkey who likes to play from the tree branch where he lives to the other tree branches. There is the lion the king of the jungle who take care of the other animals and also the forest they live in. They all live friendly in the forest. The forest where they live is close to a beautiful and beautiful village too.

One sunny morning. As they prepare to play in the forest, the rabbit sees a large tall tree in the forest being cut by one of the villagers. The rabbit was shocked and immediately told his other friends. The lion did not accept the forest he guarded was destroyed by humans. "Let's go there now!" said the lion. They hurried to the place where the trees were cut. How surprised they turned out that many trees had been cut down. They want to fight but the villagers gather too much there. They were afraid to go there, instead, they were killed as a dinner for the villagers.

"It's too crowded here, let's just go back now". The lion invited his friends back sadly. The other animals sadly followed. During the trip, they were silent and only thought of their place of residence that would be damaged by the villagers. After arriving at the place they used to sleep and play. The elephant voiced "What should we do now?" his face looks sad. "Will we not have a place to live anymore?" said the deer. Nobody answered. They all fell silent and sad thinking about how their lives will be.

Day by day, the trees in the forest are getting fewer. Residents only cut down and never plant trees again. The animals in the forest find it increasingly difficult to survive.

At night, suddenly there was very heavy rain. The rain continued until the next day. Residents and animals in the forest are worried. If it continues like this, floods might occur. In the end what they were worried about happened. All the houses were flooded. Likewise, the forest in which animals live is also flooded because of the lack of trees that function to absorb water.

The animals were carried by the flood current to the villagers' homes. Eventually, they were forced to stay there to protect themselves from the torrential flood currents. But the presence of animals in the homes of villagers frightened the children of the villagers. The villagers also could not bear to drive away from the animals when the flood current was swift.

In the end, one of the villagers who felled the tree realized that the presence of the animals in the village was due to their act of cutting trees in the forest. Though forests need trees so that animals can live happily there. The next day, the flood had begun to shrink. The woodcutter invited other villagers to plant trees back together in the forest.

Now, animals are back to living happily in the forest because their home has returned ...

Indonesian version

Di suatu hutan yang indah dan rindang, hiduplah berbagai macam jenis hewan. Ada kelinci yang selalu bermain dengan riang mengelilingi hutan bersama dengan temannya si kancil. Ada gajah yang selalu terlihat asyik bermain dan meminum air sungai melalui belalainya yang panjang. Ada monyet yang senang bermain dari ranting pohon tempat dia tinggal ke ranting pohon yang lainnya. Ada singa si raja hutan yang menjaga hewan-hewan lainnya dan juga hutan yang mereka tinggali. Mereka semua hidup bersahabat didalam hutan. Hutan tempat mereka tinggal dekat dengan desa yang indah dan asri pula.

Suatu ketika di pagi yang cerah. Di saat mereka bersiap untuk bermain dihutan, si kelinci melihat pohon tinggi yang besar di dalam hutan sedang di potong oleh salah satu penduduk desa. Si kelinci terkejut dan langsung memberitahu teman-temannya yang lain. Si singa tidak terima hutan yang dijaga nya dirusak oleh manusia. “Ayo kita kesana sekarang!” kata si singa. Mereka bergegas ke tempat pohon-pohon itu ditebang. Alangkah terkejutnya mereka ternyata sudah banyak pohon yang ditebang. Mereka ingin melawan namun penduduk desa terlalu banyak berkumpul disana. Mereka takut jika kesana, malah mereka yang dibunuh sebagai santapan makan malam para penduduk desa.

“Terlalu ramai disini, ayo kita kembali saja sekarang”. Si singa mengajak teman-temannya kembali dengan sedih. Hewan-hewan yang lain pun dengan sedih mengikuti. Selama perjalanan mereka terdiam dan hanya memikirkan tempat tinggal mereka yang akan dirusak oleh penduduk desa. Setelah sampai ditempat mereka biasa tidur dan bermain. Si gajah bersuara “Apa yang harus kita lakukan sekarang?” raut wajahnya terlihat sedih. “Apakah kita tidak akan punya tempat tinggal lagi?” kata si kancil. Tidak ada satupun yang menjawab. Mereka semua terdiam ketakutan dan sedih memikirkan bagaimana kehidupan mereka nanti.

Hari berganti hari, pohon-pohon dihutan semakin sedikit. Para penduduk hanya menebang dan tidak pernah menanam pohon kembali. Para hewan didalam hutan semakin sulit bertahan hidup.

Saat malam hari, tiba-tiba saja terjadi hujan yang sangat lebat. Hujan tersebut terus bertahan sampai keesokan harinya. Para penduduk maupun para hewan didalam hutan khawatir. Jika seperti ini terus bisa-bisa terjadi banjir. Pada akhirnya apa yang mereka khawatirkan terjadi. Semua rumah-rumah penduduk terendam oleh banjir. Begitu pula hutan tempat para hewan tinggal juga terendam oleh banjir karna sedikitnya pohon yang berfungsi menyerap air.

Para hewan terbawa arus banjir hingga ke rumah penduduk desa. Akhirnya mereka terpaksa berdiam disana untuk berlindung dari arus banjir yang deras. Namun keberadaan para hewan di rumah penduduk desa banyak membuat anak-anak penduduk desa ketakutan. Para penduduk desa juga tidak tega untuk mengusir para hewan disaat arus banjir sedang deras.

Pada akhirnya salah satu penduduk yang menebang pohon menyadari bahwa kehadiran para hewan ke desa adalah karena ulah mereka sendiri yang memotong pohon-pohon di dalam hutan. Padahal hutan memerlukan pohon agar para hewan bisa hidup dengan bahagia disana. Keesokan harinya, banjir sudah mulai menyusut. Si penebang pohon tersebut mengajak penduduk desa yang lain agar bersama-sama menanam pohon kembali di hutan.

Sekarang, hewan-hewan kembali hidup bahagia di dalam hutan karena tempat tinggal mereka telah kembali…

An Ideal Teacher in My Opinion

            Teachers have an important role in education. Not only teaching, but a teacher must also be able to educate his students to be better, especially in terms of attitude. To be able to teach and educate students it will be better if the teacher first takes a significant approach to students so that students can be excited in the learning process. Because based on my personal experience, I interest in a subject is because the teacher of that subject can attract my attention. More clearly, the teacher has the criteria for the ideal teacher in my opinion. However, of course, every student has different views regarding the criteria for an ideal teacher.

I have several criteria for the ideal teacher. The first is a teacher who has a sense of humor. The point is that in the teaching and learning process the teacher can create a friendly classroom situation by inserting light jokes when explaining a material. I think this can make students feel close to the teacher so that later they will not hesitate to ask questions or express opinions.

The second is coherent in explaining. I think every student agrees that ideally, teachers should have criteria like this. Sometimes the beginning of cases where students are bored learning in class is because the teacher who teaches is too convoluted in explaining the material. For this reason, the teacher with the ability to explain the material well will get a good impression from the students because they do not feel in vain listening to it for a long time but do not catch the material being taught.

               The third is not comparing students. No one student in this world who wants to be compared with other students. Sometimes teachers think that comparing is an instant way to motivate students to change. It is a big mistake. The teacher should have understood that students have different personalities and strategies in learning. Some students are normal, slow, and fast learning. It is the teacher's job to help students 'learning problems instead of reducing their students' motivation to learn.

The fourth is a teacher who can be a role model for the students. In this case, it means that the teacher has successfully stolen the student’s heart. But it doesn’t mean that students want to become teachers too. It could be that students want to follow the spirit, behavior, or achievements of the teacher. If there is a teacher that I consider as a role model, it means I really like him/her from any aspect.

Even though I have the criteria for an ideal teacher, that doesn't mean I don't respect teachers who don't fit into the criteria for an ideal teacher in my opinion. The duties and services of teachers are very noble, we must thank the teachers for the knowledge they provide.

Dilansir dari laman jambiekspres.co.id, Komisioner KPU Provinsi Jambi, Aprizal mengatakan bahwa pembatasan jumlah orang tersebut tertuang dalam Peraturan KPU (PKPU) Nomor 13 Tahun 2020 tentang Perubahan Kedua atas PKPU Nomor 6 Tahun 2020 tentang Pelaksanaan Pilkada Serentak Lanjutan dalam Kondisi Bencana Non-alam Covid-19.

“Benar bahwa akan ada pembatasan, hal itu sesuai dengan peraturan yang telah ditetapkan. Dari pihak KPU sendiri hanya akan ada 5-7 orang yang berada didalam ruang debat. Selanjutnya akan ada 2 orang dari Bawaslu.” bebernya.

Pilkada Serentak tahun 2020 ini diagendakan akan dilaksanakan pada 9 Desember 2020 yang sebelumnya diagendakan akan dilaksanakan pada 23 September namun ditunda karena penyebaran Covid-19 yang semakin meluas.

“Untuk pelaksanaan Pilkada Serentak 2020 tanggal 9 Desember nanti, KPU akan menyediakan perlengkapan protokol kesehatan seperti masker, hand sanitizer, dan lainnya jika penyebaran Covid-19 masih meluas. Hal ini dilakukan karena kami bekerja bersama masyarakat maka dari itu kami harus memperhatikan resiko penularan Covid-19.” ungkap Nina.

THE REASON I READ

            Jika ditanya apa hobi saya saat ini, maka saya akan menjawab salah satunya adalah membaca. Bagi saya membaca lebih menarik daripada melihat langsung suatu kejadian karena saya bisa bebas berimajinasi. Ya, imajinasi. Dari sini terlihat jelas kan bahwa saya lebih menyukai membaca buku fiksi yang lebih bermain pada imajinasi. Sejauh ini, buku karya Mark Manson ini adalah buku non-fiksi pertama yang saya tamatkan membacanya. Well, alasan saya membaca buku ini adalah karena saya sangat penasaran buku ini selalu nangkring di barisan buku Best Seller padahal saya sudah 4 kali bolak-balik Gramedia dalam kurun waktu 3 bulan. Saya pikir, “Keren banget nih buku bisa bertahan selama ini”. Tapi saya tidak membelinya karena kebetulan teman yang saya ajak ke Gramedia, punya buku ini. Jadinya, saya pinjam punya dia aja deh. Lumayan kan menghemat uang jajan. Heheh.
