  • Internationalisation of Indonesian Higher Education: a Study from the Periphery
    Vol. 5, No. 9 Asian Social Science Internationalisation of Indonesian Higher Education: A Study from the Periphery Sri Soejatminah (Doctoral student) School of Education, Deakin University 221 Burwood Highway, Burwood, Victoria, Australia Tel: 61-3-9244-6237 E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Globalisation as a global phenomenon has been influencing Indonesian Higher Education like other education systems in the world. Internationalisation in response to globalisation is a common feature in majority universities. It is also a feature of Indonesian Higher Education institutions, yet so far it seems that the way in which Indonesian higher education is responding to globalisation with internationalisation of its universities is not well reported. This paper aims to address this gap by examining relevant government papers, policies, research, reports and other documents available on line as well as at web sites of universities and other related web sites depicting how internationalisation has been conducted in Indonesian higher education. The paper attempts to reveal the perceived challenges of globalisation for Indonesian higher education and to what extent and in what form internationalisation has been achieved. Particularly, it will analyse the relation between policies and practices and identify barriers to internationalisation. However, it should be noted that this article is selective rather than comprehensive in reflecting on the internationalisation process in Indonesian higher education. Findings show that globalisation is perceived as a challenge requiring a response rather than as a threat to be dealt with. Many sources reflect that the government has been initiating and facilitating various programs to support internationalisation within the system. It appears that lack of capability at the institution level slows down the process.

  • Perceptions of Certified EFL Teachers Pertaining to Teacher Certification Program in Central Sulawesi, Indonesia
    Journal of Educational Sciences. Vol. 2, No. 1, 2018, 1-18 1 Perceptions of Certified EFL Teachers Pertaining to Teacher Certification Program in Central Sulawesi, Indonesia Anshari Syafar Universitas Tadulako, Palu, Indonesia E-mail: [email protected] Abstract. The state and condition of Indonesian teachers have gradually changed to a better nuance due to the compensation of teacher certification program (TCP). The program has conceivably raised the status of the teachers in social and economic lives. However, the impact of the program on the improvement of overall teacher‘s quality—teaching performance as mandated by Teacher and Lecturer Law remains questionable, and the big question is what and how teachers perceive and act in response to the objective of the program. The program aims not only to increase the teachers‘ salary, but also to improve the quality of their teaching performance based on the teacher standard competence, that is pedagogical, personality, social, and professional competences. Therefore, the study explore and describe certified EFL teachers‘ perceptions concerning benefits of the program on thier social and economic lives, improvement and quality of their teaching practices; perceptions on the ways management ran the program; and expectations for better services of the TCP management. Keywords: perception, teacher certification program, certified EFL teachers, TCP management 1 Introduction Recently, the state and condition of Indonesian teachers have gradually changed to a better nuance due to the compensation of teacher certification program (TCP).

An epicenter of its earthquake located 77 km from the capital of Central Sulawesi Province, Palu city. The main earthquake, followed by a localized 4 to 7 meters high tsunami, which swept shore-lying houses and buildings on its way. A large number of damages on reinforced concrete (RC) buildings, houses, and soil liquefaction spread in Palu city were observed after the earthquake. The post-earthquake observation, as is reported in this paper, was conducted in order to define the typical pattern of the buildings' damages. The field investigation was focused on the damaged RC frame of buildings’ structures. Several types of damage were detected on RC structures such as collapse due to the soft story, damage to beam-column joint, failure of short column, shear failure of the column, and collapsed of brick masonry infills. Two damaged RC frame buildings, i.e., one was severely damaged and the other in totally collapsed, were furthermore analyzed to define their seismic capacity based on Japanese standard.
