Osu1242851740.Pdf (647.17 The International Standard School Project in Indonesia: a Policy Document Analysis Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University by Ag Kustulasari, S.Pd. College of Education and Human Ecology The Ohio State University 2009 Thesis Committee: Ann Allen, Advisor Antoinette Errante Copyright by Ag Kustulasari 2009 Abstract The International Standard School project is a new education policy in Indonesia that was enacted with a main goal to prepare the students for global competitiveness. This policy is both an effort to internationalize schools in Indonesia and a part of the national education decentralization reform. The title International Standard School, SBI in Bahasa Indonesia, is given as an accreditation status to schools that have completed the required standards. The use of the terms “international” has drawn a lot of comments and concerns among the public in general. This study is aimed at analyzing the policy documents in seeking for an answer to a thesis question: Is the International Standard School project likely to achieve the intended goal of improving the quality of public education in Indonesia? A set of policy documents was collected and analyzed against literature on international schools and education decentralization. The analysis found that the policy documents lacked of clarity in explaining some critical terms and thus were not likely to help the national schools to achieve the intended goal of the policy. Some other important findings in relation to the use of the term “international”, the impetus of the policy, and the readiness of the system to implement the policy are presented. ii Dedication I dedicate this thesis to my late mother Chatarina M. Juwati; “sembah bekti lan atur panuwun kula, Ibu” iii Acknowledgements I would like to acknowledge and extend my heartfelt gratitude to the following persons who have made the completion of this Master’s Thesis possible. First and foremost, I would like to express my sincerest gratitude to Dr. Ann Allen, my academic advisor and my professor for her vital assistance, advice, and support during my two-year Master’s study and research. I am also greatly indebted to Dr. Antoinette Errante for her assistance and encouragement both when I attended her class and during my thesis completion. Words cannot express how grateful I am to have found such a wonderful duo for my thesis committee. This thesis is only one of the doubtlessly exciting academic experiences I have gained through my Master’s study. I thank all of the faculty members in the School of Educational Policy and Leadership at The Ohio State University who have shared their knowledge and expertise in the classes and outside. I surely also have to thank my fellow graduate students who have enriched my learning and living experience through both academically related and non-academically related conversations and activities. Isn’t diversity beautiful? It is indeed an invaluable experience to be able to live and study at The Ohio State University. Therefore, in this perfect moment I would like to greatly thank the foundations that have brought the opportunity to me: the Fulbright Scholarship, the Alpha iv Delta Kappa, and the Delta Kappa Gamma. Special thanks also go to the following individuals for their help with my research and for their companionship: to Bapak Satria Dharma in Indonesia and Tati Durriyah, my house-mate, for their assistance in collecting the policy documents, to my fellow Fulbright friends for their supports, to my family and friends in Indonesia who have accompanied me virtually via the Internet, and last but not least, to Sergio García Guillen, my soul-friend, for the amazing friendship he has offered. v Vita 1997…………………………………SMPN (State Junior High School) 9, Yogyakarta 1999…………………………………Sang Timur Senior High School, Yogyakarta August 2001 – October 2003………..English Instructor at Medita English Course January 2003 – September 2005…….English Instructor at Sanata Dharma University Language Center 2004…………………………………Bachelor in Education, Sanata Dharma University August 2005 – June 2007…………...Lecturer at English Letters Department, Sanata Dharma University October 2005 – June 2007………….Academic Coordinator at Sanata Dharma University Language Institute 2007 – present………………………Master’s student in Educational Administration, The Ohio State University Fields of Study Major Field: Educational Area of Emphasis: Educational Administration vi Table of Contents Abstract ………………………………………………………………………………….. ii Dedication ………………………………………………………………………………. iii Acknowledgements ……………………………………………………………………... iv Vita ………………………………………………………………………………..……. vi List of Tables ……………………………………………………………………… …… x List of Figures …………………………………………………………………………... xi Chapter 1: Introduction ………………………………………………………………….. 1 A.

Background In light of a new democratic governance post the military authoritarian regime of Soeharto (Liddle, 2008), and pushed by the proposals for decentralization in the aftermath of the economic crisis in 1997, the Ministry of National Education (MONE) of Indonesia (2003) developed a new vision for the nation’s education reform. The new vision is geared towards “the implementation of the principles of democracy, autonomy, decentralization, and public accountability” (Act of the Republic of Indonesia No. 20, year 2003 on National Education System, p. 1). The rationale of the education reform is further stipulated in the act as follows: A national education system should ensure equal opportunity, improvement of quality and relevance and efficiency in management to meet various challenges of local, national, and global lives; therefore it requires well-planned, well-directed, and sustainable education reform (2003, p. 4). This act refines the principles of education provision and lays the foundation for the government’s initiatives in primary, secondary, and higher education. One of the recently taken initiatives for primary and secondary levels of education is a project called Sekolah Bertaraf Internasional (International Standard School). Initiated approximately three years after the act, the project is based on the following law: The government and local government organize at least a unit of education at all levels of education, to be developed further as a unit having international standards of 1 education (Act of the Republic of Indonesia No. 20, year 2003 on National Education System, pp. 26-27). The goal of this International Standard School (SBI) project, in other words, is the establishment of one class or more in a primary and/or secondary school in each province and/or district that satisfies some international standards. This internationalization of schools in Indonesia is not a novel trend among the private schools, but is indeed new to the public/state-funded schools. In the private sector, there are two types of international schools: international schools and national-plus schools. Most of these schools are found in big cities in Indonesia. International schools are owned and/or funded by foreign foundations that were initially established to serve the children of the expatriates working in Indonesia. National-plus schools are national- based private schools that, in addition to the national curriculum, employ an

    Embodied encounters: Identities in experiential, informal dance, and movement in Central Java Lise Lavelle, Lund University, Sweden Contact: liselavelle@mail.dk Abstract The performance presented in this paper, entitled “Perempuan,” or “Women” in English, is the result of an intercultural meeting between three dancers, two from Java, Indonesia, and one from Denmark (me). Our performance took place in the cultural city of Solo, Central Java, during the international festival, “Ritual Art and Cultural Environment” in 1995. I first met the two Javanese dancers at the Indonesian National Arts Institute in Solo (ISI), where I was carrying out fieldwork for my PhD, centering on the Amerta Movement from Java. Amerta Movement, created by Javanese movement-instructor and performing artist Suprapto Suryodarmo (Prapto) in the 1980s, is a free, non-stylized motion based on everyday movements and on working with awareness and attitudes to life (not an ethnic dance). Amerta Movement has attracted thousands of people, especially Westerners, from all walks of life and of all ages. The practitioners study identity, self-expression, movement-vocabulary, communication, and improvised performance. The research method is practice-based/artistic research. My aim of working with the Javanese dancers for Perempuan was to apply the Amerta improvisational movement to a dance performance with professional dancers, and to exchange our dance skills. It was also based on my wish to get to know Javanese women a little better. Thus, the Perempuan dance project and dance performance became an encounter between non-form Amerta Movement, represented by me, a Westerner; and form, Javanese dance, represented by the two Javanese dancers.

  • Body of Tradition: Becoming a Woman Dalang in Bali
    Body of Tradition: Becoming a Woman Dalang in Bali A dissertation presented to the faculty of the College of Fine Arts of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy Jennifer L. Goodlander August 2010 © 2010 Jennifer L. Goodlander. All Rights Reserved. 2 This dissertation titled Body of Tradition: Becoming a Woman Dalang in Bali by JENNIFER L. GOODLANDER has been approved for the Interdisciplinary Arts and the College of Fine Arts by William F. Condee Professor of Theater Charles A. McWeeny Dean, College of Fine Arts 3 ABSTRACT GOODLANDER, JENNIFER L., Ph.D., August 2010, Interdisciplinary Arts Body of Tradition: Becoming a Woman Dalang in Bali (248 pp.) Director of Dissertation: William F. Condee The role of women in Bali must be understood in relationship to tradition, because “tradition” is an important concept for analyzing Balinese culture, social hierarchy, religious expression, and politics. Wayang kulit, or shadow puppetry, is considered an important Balinese tradition because it connects a mythic past to a political present through public, and often religiously significant ritual performance. The dalang, or puppeteer, is the central figure in this performance genre and is revered in Balinese society as a teacher and priest. Until recently, the dalang has always been male, but now women are studying and performing as dalangs. In order to determine what women in these “non-traditional” roles means for gender hierarchy and the status of these arts as “traditional,” I argue that “tradition” must be understood in relation to three different, yet overlapping, fields: the construction of Bali as a “traditional” society, the role of women in Bali as being governed by “tradition,” and the performing arts as both “traditional” and as a conduit for “tradition.” This dissertation is divided into three sections, beginning in chapters two and three, with a general focus on the “tradition” of wayang kulit through an analysis of the objects and practices of performance.

    "IT'S NOT AN ALL NIGHT FAIR’1 ("BUKAN PASAR MALAMM by Pramoedya Ananta Toer) Translated and with an Introduction by William Watson* INTRODUCTION The generation of writers which emerged after the Second World War is known as the Angkatan f45 (The Generation of '45). Among students of Indonesian literature it is a commonplace that the Angkatan *45 de­ veloped a style of writing and a critical focus which differed consid­ erably from that of their predecessors, the writers who clustered round the magazine Pudjangga Baru. Among the distinctive traits of post-war writing which are usually mentioned are the predominance of realism in the short story and the novel, as opposed to the romanticism and thesis novels of the earlier generation, and the development of a prose style which is noticeable for its terseness and the absence of lyricism. One also notices the use of cynicism and irony to convey oblique com­ ments on the political situation, and an interest in sordid, squalid detail for its own sake, a nostalgie de la boue. Clearly the experience of the Japanese occupation and the revolu­ tion account in large measure for the difference in outlook between the two generations, but the difference in educational and class back­ ground is also relevant. The Pudjangga Baru group consisted of those to whom the whole Dutch perspective had been open. They had a thorough Dutch education and were largely divorced from their own native society, whereas the Angkatan f45 consisted of those who had not had the oppor­ tunity of university or tertiary education of any sort and in some cases were brought up in the traditional educational milieux or in the Taman Siswa schools that had been established specifically to counter Dutch educational influence.

  • “SALAM NAMASTE” SEBAGAI PENGUATAN IDENTITAS SOSIAL BERBASIS KEARIFAN LOKAL Yovita Arie Mangesti1
    Mimbar Keadilan Volume 14 Nomor 1 Februari 2021 Yovita Arie Mangesti PERLINDUNGAN HUKUM PEMBERIAN HAK CIPTA ATAS “SALAM NAMASTE” SEBAGAI PENGUATAN IDENTITAS SOSIAL BERBASIS KEARIFAN LOKAL Yovita Arie Mangesti1 Abstract "Salam Namaste" is a gesture of placing your palms together on your chest and bending your body slightly, which is commonly practiced by Indonesians as a symbol of respect for someone they meet. This body gesture is a safe way of interacting during a pandemic, because it can minimize virus transmission through body contact without losing the noble meaning of human interaction with each other. "Salam Namaste" is a means of communication that unites the diversity of Indonesian cultures. This paper uses a conceptual, statutory and eclectic approach to "Salam Namaste" which is a form of traditional cultural expression. Indonesian culture is full of wisdom, so that "Salam Namaste" deserves legal protection in the form of State-owned Intellectual Property Rights as regulated in Article 38 of Law of the Republic of Indonesia Number 28 of 2014 concerning Copyright. Keywords: copyright; local wisdom "Salam Namaste"; strengthening of social identity Abstrak “Salam Namaste” merupakan gestur tubuh mengatupkan kedua telapak tangan di dada dan sedikit membungkukkan badan, yang lazim dilakukan oleh masyarakat Indonesia sebagai simbol penghormatan terhadap seseorang yang dijumpai. Gestur tubuh ini menjadi cara berinteraksi yang aman di masa pandemi, karena dapat meminimalisir penularan virus lewat kontak tubuh tanpa kehilangan makna luhur interaksi manusia dengan sesamanya. “Salam Namaste” menjadi sarana komunikasi yang menyatukan keragaman budaya Indonesia. Tulisan ini menggunakan pendekatan konseptua, perundang-undangan serta eklektik terhadap “Salam Namaste” yang merupakan suatu bentuk ekspresi budaya tradisional.
