paradigma pendidikan

Selama tiga dasawarsa terakhir, dunia pendidikan Indonesia secara kuantitatif telah berkembang sangat cepat. Pada tahun 1965 jumlah sekolah dasar (SD) sebanyak 53.233 dengan jumlah murid dan guru sebesar 11.577.943 dan 274.545 telah meningkat pesat menjadi 150.921 SD dan 25.667.578 murid serta 1.158.004 guru (Pusat Informatika, Balitbang Depdikbud, 1999). Jadi dalam waktu sekitar 30 tahun jumlah SD naik sekitar 300%. Sudah barang tentu perkembangan pendidikan tersebut patut disyukuri. Namun sayangnya, perkembangan pendidikan tersebut tidak diikuti dengan peningkatan kualitas pendidikan yang sepadan. Akibatnya, muncul berbagai ketimpangan pendidikan di tengah-tengah masyarakat, termasuk yang sangat menonjol adalah: a) ketimpangan antara kualitas output pendidikan dan kualifikasi tenaga kerja yang dibutuhkan, b) ketimpangan kualitas pendidikan antar desa dan kota, antar Jawa dan luar Jawa, antar pendudukkaya dan penduduk miskin. Di samping itu, di dunia pendidikan juga muncul dua problem yang lain yang tidak dapat dipisah dari problem pendidikan yang telah disebutkan di atas.

Pertama, pendidikan cenderung menjadi sarana stratifikasi sosial. Kedua, pendidikan sistem persekolahan hanya mentransfer kepada peserta didik apa yang disebut the dead knowledge, yakni pengetahuan yang terlalu bersifat text-bookish sehingga bagaikan sudah diceraikan baik dari akar sumbernya maupun aplikasinya.

Berbagai upaya pembaharuan pendidikan telah dilaksanakan untuk meningkatkan kualitas pendidikan, tetapi sejauh ini belum menampakkan hasilnya। Mengapa kebijakan pembaharuan pendidikan di tanah air kita dapat dikatakan senantiasa gagal menjawab problem masyarakat? Sesungguhnya kegagalan berbagai bentuk pembaharuan pendidikan di tanah air kita bukan semata-mata terletak pada bentuk pembaharuan pendidikannya sendiri yang bersifat erratic, tambal sulam, melainkan lebih mendasar lagi kegagalan tersebut dikarenakan ketergantungan penentu kebijakan pendidikan pada penjelasan paradigma peranan pendidikan dalam perubahan sosial yang sudah usang. Ketergantungan ini menyebabkan adanya harapan-harapan yang tidak realistis dan tidak tepat terhadap efikasi pendidikan. Berbagai upaya pembaharuan pendidikan telah dilaksanakan untuk meningkatkan kualitas pendidikan, tetapi sejauh ini belum menampakkan hasilnya.
Pembangunan merupakan proses yang berkesinambungan yang mencakup seluruh aspek kehidupan masyarakat, termasuk aspek sosial, ekonomi, politik dan kultural, dengan tujuan utama meningkatkan kesejahteraan warga bangsa secara keseluruhan. Dalam proses pembangunan tersebut peranan pendidikan amatlah strategis. Berkaitan dengan peranan pendidikan dalam pembangunan nasional muncul dua paradigma yang menjadi kiblat bagi pengambil kebijakan dalam pengembangan kebijakan pendidikan: Paradigma Fungsional dan paradigma Sosialisasi. Paradigma fungsional melihat bahwa keterbelakangan dan kemiskinan dikarenakan masyarakat tidak mempunyai cukup penduduk yang memiliki pengetahuan, kemampuan dan sikap modern. Menurut pengalaman masyarakat di Barat, lembaga pendidikan formal sistem persekolahan merupakan lembaga utama mengembangkan pengetahuan, melatih kemampuan dan keahlian, dan menanamkan sikap modern para individu yang diperlukan dalam proses pembangunan. Bukti-bukti menunjukkan adanya kaitan yang erat antara pendidikan formal seseorang dan partisipasinya dalam pembangunan. Perkembangan lebih lanjut muncul, tesis Human lnvestmen, yang menyatakan bahwa investasi dalam diri manusia lebih menguntungkan, memiliki economic rate of return yang lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan investasi dalam bidang fisik. Diibaratkan keluarga yang demokratis, sebagai orang tua guru dilihat sebagai pemegang dan penjaga nilai-nilai yang diperlukan bagi kehidupan keluarga tersebut, lewat mata pelajaran yang disampaikan dan interaksi dialog. Interaksi sebagai seorang guru tetap dijaga dalam sekolah yang demokratis. Guru memiliki kebebasan akademik untuk mencari dan mengkaji pengetahuan yang akan disampaikan kepada peserta didik. Demikian pula, guru sebagai orang tua dalam keluarga memiliki wewenang untuk menganulir keputusan yang bertentangan dengan demokrasi.

This is the region with an area of Buddhist worship to 12 square kilometers, the largest in the archipelago. First discovered by British soldiers named SC Crooke in 1820, when he was assigned to map the Batanghari River. According Dasril Bujang, Officer Muaro Jambi Temple Museum as the most extensive archaeological sites, Muaro Jambi chose the 80 temples, nine major temples.

Restored
Bujang Dasril: This site enshrinement Muaro Jambi, arealnya 12 square kilometers. Here, there are nine large temple, the first temple Kotomahligai, directions to the west again. There is more or less Kedaton Temple four miles from here, temple and Gedong Gedong one two, more or less a pound from where we are today. Gumpung temple, now we are in Gumpung temple. Temple High, Telago Rajo, Stone Temple and the Temple of the Twin Astano. That there are nine large.

Ancient objects in the historic temple complex Muaro Jambi is priceless. But this property neglected, lonely and neglected infrastructure remember not to be noticed. Damaged roads to the temple, there is no adequate transportation facilities, the facilities were terrible.
Tourism potential
Jambi Muaro Local Government was aware of that have tourism potential Muaro Jambi Temple. They promised to be adjusted in order to develop tourism infrastructure. For example, create a path between the temple. The canal will also be cleaned and opened again, so that tourists can come to the temple by using traditional boats.

From the temple Kedaton, there are 4.1 miles along the canal which will be navigated with a traditional boat.

But before you fix it all, Regent Muaro Jambi Mahar Burhanuddin had other desires. Most important, he says, is renovating the temple.

Burhanuddin Mahar: Because I want this temple should be restored. To be attractive to both local wisatawasan want any foreign countries to visit there.

If appearance Muaro Jambi temple was repaired, tourism potential here must continue to be introduced. One way is to make the temple as the location of the celebration of Vesak Day. Secretary General of the Council Budhayana Indonesia, Budiman.

Budiman: Yes, because we see that in fact this temple have not been exposed to it? Meanwhile, judging from the history of this temple, including a temple older than Borobudur temple in Java is there. The extent is also much greater. And here, too, had no kingdom of Sriwijaya was the existence of this temple. Well, we saw the real potential of this temple is very big for exposed, and became one of great wealth for our country.

This is wealth, not just for Buddhists in Indonesia, but also Buddhists around the world. Grinanda monks, the Sangha Council Rayon II Budhayana Indonesia.

Monks Grinanda: Actually, we as part of Buddhist, also wanted to raise what historical places also spoke. In a sense we use it as a repeat of past times, to bring back the Buddhist, especially in the area of Sumatra and in general in Indonesia.

Muhammad Taufik: tour packages for instance example, durian hunting, so in addition to travel to see the temple can enjoy some fruits, good durian duku or community property. Sure, we as a government will only encourage and foster the concept of empowerment to do this is felt by them in the context of this community economy.

Historic
If the location of the temple Muaro Jambi maximally improved, Taufik hopes archeological sites in Jambi Muaro this would appeal to tourists and visiting international scientists.

If the tourism potential in the temple can be turned on Muaro Jambi, economic communities must participate bergeliat. At the very least, unique souvenirs Muaro Jambi would be made to meet the needs of tourists. This expectation Ferdinand delivered a visitor of the temple.

Ferdinand: Can ndak? Muara Jambi is made as Borobudur. That is, indeed around the temple Muaro Jambi no Budhanya people, such as Borobudur. But the neighborhood what it's called selling trinkets on the temple Muaro Jambi. That is, if people come to Jambi, it is a memento of Muaro Jambi temple which his little form. So, we as a people budha, feel gratitude, it means that the temple be turned into tourism and so on.

Muaro Jambi temple would have packed more beautiful, to sell to tourists at home and abroad. Not just that alone, a historic relic to be kept, however how.

delicacy of taste tempoyak jambi

One of them is a typical dish from Jambi, which is Tempoyak. Tempoyak a unique cuisine with a slightly different flavor than most other dishes, one of the ingredients for cooking using durian.

More details, Tempoyak processed from durian digosongkan. Tempoyak has a diverse species (according to taste), such as, tempoyak gurame, tempoyak shrimp, tempoyak gurame, tempoyak catfish, with the basic ingredients blended durian, but so satisfying taste tastednya.

If you're curious to try the unique menu for this one, while in Jambi, sempatkanlah moment to enjoy a meal served at Tempoyak Ombai Store, located Jelanai Road, Jambi.
Fish curry catfish imagine making this a hungry stomach, generally in Jambi restaurants provide fish curry catfish as a menu mainstay. This is rational if seen from the potential of catfish fish in Jambi are quite abundant. Along the Batang Hari river which divides the city of Jambi lot keramba keramba-fish catfish that every day is always supplying fish to the house restaurants in the city of Jambi. Only one that continues to question the owners of restaurants in Jambi is always jammed, which is why our customers generally prefer to enjoy the fish curry is the head of the catfish fish than other parts. For some reason, that obviously the head catfish fishing has its own attraction for customers. I think if you walk along the Jambi incomplete if it does not enjoy this catfish fish curry.
Other fish curry catfish, others also tempoyak BAUNG. Jambi traditional menu that is increasingly rare one found in the house restaurants in Jambi today. This is quite reasonable, because the fish BAUNG very hard to get .. BAUNG fish commonly sold in markets are still relying on natural catches. Very fortunate to Jambi if you can find this menu in the diner. Tempoyak BAUNG is a combination of acid durian BAUNG cooked with fish, not people Jambi if've never felt this dish

traditional house joglo


Houses or Houses Joglo Joglo Warehouse is a traditional home area of South Kalimantan (Banjar house) which has a pyramid roof. Joglo house called Round House. This house is also located in the city of Pontianak, West Kalimantan.
Round house in the village have Penghulu, Marabahan, Barito Kuala. Joglo home building form consists of 3 pyramid roof structure that lined the back with an additional one roof a smaller pyramid on the back of the kitchen building (ECE). Limas house like this if the Java is called House Limasan Telu Endas are three pyramid roof lining to the back.
In Banjarmasin types of houses are also called Joglo Joglo Warehouse is one pyramid roof with a roof attached Sindang sky in front and roof behind Hambin clouds. There is also a model Joglo large warehouse with additional Pamedangan porch to the left side and right side of the house.
Etymologically derived from the word Joglo and warehouses. It is so called because it resembles the House Joglo Limasan model of the Javanese house called home Joglo, while the term 'warehouse' for the part under the house (which in the language called Banjar berumahan) used as a warehouse for storing forest products, rubber which is a trade commodity in ancient times.
In Banjarmasin, the house was a lot of people occupied Tionghoa-Banjar. Warehouse Joglo house is the architectural treasures of wealth in South Kalimantan that has evolved in the past.
House Joglo form has a larger size than other forms of construction such as "panggangpe", "village" and "Limasan" which is a tradition of building homes in the land of Java. Building "Joglo" is in general use materials more wood. So it is possible to create additional space. General characteristics, forms the building "joglo" this is to use "blandar" compound called "intercropping blandar". This intercropping Blandar is piled up blandar. Getting to the other more broad joglo form has four main pillars located in the middle is called "Saka Guru". Then, in the form of this building there is also the framework of the so-called "Sunduk" or "Sunduk kili", Sunduk penyiku serves as a building or reinforcement in order not to change its position. Therefore, its location on the pillars of blandar below. If each side had been Sunduk, then Sunduk tour was called "koloran" or "kendhit" (= belt made of woven cloth. Bagunan form form a square building. In a further development of this building changed joglo -changes, so that the principal bangaunan we see, some form of other buildings as joglo variations. joglo buildings usually can not be separated from the couple gebyok.
Bhineka Tunggal Ika motto is one of Indonesia's motto is wearing in Indonesia society because of the diversity of Indonesian society is very diverse. One of them is a variety of traditional houses in each province. For example Joglo which is a traditional Javanese house.

These buildings generally have a square plan, has four main pillars in the middle of peruangannya which we refer to as "pillars of '. Pillars of support functions to blandar "intercropping" the compound into the increasingly upward widening and usually odd and carved. Carvings on this intercropping owners indicate social status. To lock the pillars of the structure provided "Sunduk" so-called "koloran" or "kendhit". Location koloran have under intercropping functioning lock and connect to the four "pillars of" into a single unit. Intercropping timber serves as a pedestal to hold the structure usuk "brunjung and molo" and that extends to usuk pole "overhang" Joglo building. In its development, this Joglo building has many variations changes additions further enhance the structure of this traditional house.
Saka teacher, is the main structure in building a traditional Javanese house better known as the House Joglo. Saka teacher is the name for the pole or pillar, amounting to 4 pieces. This pole is made of wood species with the amount varying according to the weight riding on it. Pillars of the weight function on top of the block and brunjung intercropping, molo, usuk, battens, and roof tiles. Saka teacher serves as the center of the building construction Joglo because it is located in the middle of the building.
Part of the core construction and characteristics of the roof truss in the traditional house building Joglo is situated on the composition of the roof frame structure "brunjung" (inverted pyramid shape, which is getting into the more wide and is located on the fourth pillar "pillar of" organized story to the position " dudur and rib-rib ") and the composition of the framework" uleng "(arrangement of pyramid-shaped roof truss is arranged on four pillars" soko guru "at the inside). Both these structures we are familiar with the name "intercropping inside and outside". Both the structure of this framework is the only characteristic of a building owned by the traditional form of Joglo.
Along with the times, this traditional building Joglo increasingly supplanted by modern buildings. In addition to modern buildings have diverse forms, the building also does not require the more expensive cost than building Joglo. Houses Joglo generally owned only by the people who enabled more material. This is because the building materials needed Joglo house is great and quite expensive because most of the material comes from teak wood and require separate treatment.

Joglo buildings now only be found as a marquee or meeting places. But I've seen these buildings in Kalibaru Joglo Cottages. Place Kalibaru Cottages hotel lobby of the building shaped like Joglo.

Broadly speaking, they live in Jambi in 3 different ecological regions, namely people in the northern stronghold of Jambi province (surrounding areas Bukit 30 National Park), Park Hill 12, and the south province of Jambi (Sumatra along the causeway). They are nomadic and live his life based on hunting and gathering, although many of them now have agricultural land and other rubber.
Their lives are so pathetic as the loss of forest resources in Jambi and South Sumatra, and processes of marginalization by the government and the dominant tribes (Orang Melayu) in Jambi and South Sumatra.
There are various versions about the origin of the Citadel. The first version says that they came from West Sumatra. It is said, they are people who do not want to be colonized by the Dutch. For that, they went into the woods and wandered until he was in the area of Jambi.
The second version says that they are soldiers who are lost. It is said that at the time of Jambi kingdom ruled by the Princess Pinang Masak harmony, the kingdom was attacked by a man who mastered the Black Kayo Edge Jabung (Strait idolatry). The attack was made Jambi overwhelmed. For that, the Queen of Jambi which is actually a descendant of Minangkabau kingdom beg for help to King Pagarruyung. And, the king allowed the application by sending troops to Jambi by road (through the jungle). One time when he arrived at Hill Twelve they run out of stock, but was far from Pagarruyung and still far from Jambi. Then, they were the result of discussion and agreement to remain in place, with a consideration if the return to shame as well Pagarruyung also not impossible will be punished by the king. In the meantime, if you go on to Jambi in addition provisions are still far too no longer exists. Then, they vowed to stay in place with any provisions would violate his life miserable and accursed. The oath is as follows:
"Go forth Minangkabau Rajo doomed, doomed downstream Rajo Jambi, did not sprout up in the middle of eating beetles, not deep down, ditimpo wood punggur" (Return to King Minangkabau Minangkabau condemned, condemned downstream King of Jambi, the above not sprout, in the midst of eating, beetles, are not rooted to the bottom, decayed wood overwritten).

Pagaruyung soldiers who brought his wife and the Mount Twelve tersest was later lowered the Citadel. Election of the hill is very reasonable because there are many large rocks which can be utilized both as a fortress. In addition, there asa source of water and small rivers that provide various types of fish that are needed in their survival.
The third version says that people are descendants Bujang faction and Princess Fruit Perantau Gelumpang. It is said that in ancient times there was a male nomads called Bujang Perantau. When the nomads came to Mount Twelve, one night he dreamed. In the dream he was told to take gelumpang fruit, then the fruit was wrapped in white cloth. If it is then a miracle will occur. Once awake, he immediately did. Gelumpang fruit wrapped in white cloth was transformed into a very beautiful princess (Princess Fruit Gelumpang). After the big wedding of the daughter invites. However, Perantau Bujang said that no one would marry. At this the Princess suggested that Perantau Bujang bayur felling trees and peeled so slippery and the river dilintangkan. Bujang Perantau pursue sent from one end of the trunk. Meanwhile, Princess Fruit Gelum-stage climb from the other end. If in the middle of the bridge they met and clashed on the forehead, then it means that the Shah became husband and wife. And, it turns out they can do it well. Therefore, they Shah became husband and wife. Their marriage produced 4 children, namely Malangi Bujang, Bujang Dewo, Princess Ivory, and Princess Pinang Masak Selaro. The first child is called the base of the beneficiary and the last child is called the end of the inheritance.
Once there, Bujang Malapangi and Princess Pinang Masak out Selaro woods and founded the village. And, this means following his father's footsteps as a bright person. Meanwhile, Bujang Dewo and Princess d'Ivoire remained in the forest followed her mother as a person Rimbo. Farewell two groups led to civil strife, but each continued to recognize as kin. For that, necessary to distinguish between the berkampung with a stay in the woods with persumpahan. Oath Malapangi Bujang Bujang addressed to Dewo are as follows:

"Which is not to greet the heir hamlet self command, see the heir bilo RIMBO dilancungkan with it like a pig, lizard, tapir, and python; pertuanan keno Bolting curse, swear all Jambi keno ....". Meaning of this oath is that people Rimbo are people who do not want to think big brother (the base of the beneficiary), if the older brother served with him in the bush pigs, benuk, monitor lizards, and snakes (all of these animals, the light is forbidden to eat it); going to get yelled at all people of Jambi.

Oath Bujang Bujang Dewo Malapangi addressed to the person who had the Light:
"The crocodile was captured water, on land captured panther, wood itimpo d-punggur, to the cursed knife Kawi, keno masrum down kalimah God, the wine kabangiyang, ditimpo striped sky, did not sprout up, not down roots, ... . and those who berkampung is: "berpadang nut, berpadang kelapo, dislamkan, meeting in dilur Rencong, planting bersuruk reasonable minds, fleshy two, bergantang two, bercupak two". The meaning of the oath is that people are berkampung wretched man who stands for those who hurt everywhere, into the water to eat crocodiles, tigers eat ashore, seized timber punggur, condemned by the sacred weapons, exposed kalimah curse of God, is always followed by a demon, falling sky in the afternoon, no boss and no subordinates; as for the sign are: plant nut, coconut, dislamkan; well outside of the foul, not virtuous and outsmart people, guided by two / do not have a position.

However, there is a consensus that the Bujang Malapangi and his descendants still considered the base of beneficiaries and domiciled in the country, while still living in the forest can continue to maintain ancestral customs (Bujang Perantau with Princess Fruit Gelumpang).
Told that the fourth version, it is said in the past coast of Sumatra island often visited by the pirates. They usually come with his wife and son. One time a boy known to have sex with his sister. In fact, the relationship of such an act is prohibited by them. Therefore, two different beings that gender be sanctioned segregation, the abandoned or left to live alone in the woods. In fact, not only that they are not allowed to show themselves to others. That's where they eventually breed and establish a settlement in Ulu KEPAYANG area, near the hamlet Penamping located on the riverbank Lalan (now included in the area of South Sumatra Province). That said, this is their first settlements.

Indonesia's batik


Batik refers to two things. The first is the technique of coloring cloth using the night to prevent the coloring part of the fabric. In the international literature, this technique is known as a wax-resist dyeing. The second notion is a cloth or clothing made with these techniques, including the use of certain motifs that have specificity. Batik Indonesia, as the overall engineering, technology, and development and cultural motives related, defined by UNESCO as a Cultural Heritage for Humanity Oral and Nonbendaw

The art of coloring cloth to prevent staining technique using night is one of the ancient art form. The discovery in Egypt showed that This technique has been known since the 4th century BC, with the discovery mummy wrapping cloth which is coated the night to form a pattern. In Asia, batik similar techniques are also applied in China during the dynasty T'ang (618-907) as well as in India and Japan during the Nara period (645-794). In Africa, a technique known as batik Yoruba tribe in Nigeria,and Soninke and Wolof tribe in Senegal. [2]. In Indonesia, batik believed to have existed since the time of Majapahit, and became very popular the late eighteenth century or early nineteenth century. Batik is produced is batik all until the early twentieth century and the new printed batik is knownafter World War I or around the 1920's

Batik is a craft that has high artistic value and has become part of the culture of Indonesia (especially Java) for a long time. Javanese women in the past made their skills in batik for a living, so in the past, batik work is exclusively women's work until the invention of "Batik Cap" which allows the entry of men into the field. There are some exceptions to this phenomenon, namely that the coastal batik masculine lines as you can see in shades of "Mega Clouds", which in some coastal areas batik work is common for men.
Batik tradition was originally a hereditary tradition, so occasionally a recognizable motif batik originated from a particular family. Some batik motif can indicate the status of a person. Even today, some tadisional batik motif is only used by the family court of Yogyakarta and Surakarta.

Cirebon batik motif sea creatures
Batik is the ancestral heritage of Indonesia (Java) that until now still exist.

But the development of New Order apda batik shirt is also used as formal wear school students and civil servants (batik Korpri) who uses batik uniform on Friday. Further development of batik began to shift into everyday clothing mainly used by women. Private employees usually wear batik on Thursday or Friday.
