1 | More Religion, Less Science in Indonesia School Reform | Fanovana Ny Fandaharam-pianarana Any Indonezia, Mibahan-toerana Kokoa Ny Finoana, Ary Mihena Ny Siansa |
2 | Indonesia has recently implemented a curriculum reform in over 6,000 schools which instantly generated backlash owing to lack of preparations and the removal of Science, English, and Information Technology as separate subjects. | Vao haingana izay i Indonezia no nametraka fanovana ny fandaharam-pianarana tany amin'ireo sekoly miisa 6000, izay nitarika fihetsehana avy hatrany noho ny tsy fahampian'ny fiomanana sy ny fanaisorana ny Siansa, ny Anglisy ary ny Teknolojia Fampahalalam-baovao (IT) ho taranja mitokana. |
3 | At the primary level, 11 subjects were reduced into 6 subjects while class hours were raised from to 26 hours to 30 hours every week. | Tany amin'ny fanabeazana fototra, nahena ho taranja 6 ireo taranja 11 raha nampitomboana ho 30 ora kosa ny ora fianarana isan-kerinandro raha 26 ora izany taloha. |
4 | The teaching of the English language and science was merged with priority subject areas such as Bahasa Indonesia, nationalism and religious studies. | Natambatra tamin'ireo taranja laharam-pahamehana tahaka ny fianarana teny Bahasa Indoneziana, ny fitiavan-tanindrazana sy ireo fianarana ara-pinoana ny fianarana ny teny Anglisy sy ny siansa. |
5 | Additional two hours were allocated for religious studies. | Ho an'ny fandalinam-pinoana ireo ora roa fanampiny. |
6 | At the senior high school level, students were required to join the national scouting organization for their extracurricular activity. | Any amin'ny ambaratonga ambony, noterena hiditra ao amin'ny fikambanan'ny sikoto nasionaly ireo mpianatra ho an'ny hetsika ivelan'ny fianarana. |

9 | The focus on civic and religious education is meant to develop the youth's “sense of morality and social responsibility.” | Natao hampivoarana ny “fahatakaran'ny tanora ny fitsipi-pitondran-tena sy ny andraikiny eo amin'ny fiaraha-monina” ny fifantohana amin'ny fampianarana fahaiza-miaina sy fandalinam-pinoana. |
10 | In particular, the reforms were conceptualized to make students “tolerant and peaceful” in response to the growing problem of violence in schools. | Natao indrindra ireo fanavaozana ireo mba hahatonga ireo mpianatra “hahay handefitra sy ho tia filaminana” noho ny olana mitombo amin'ny herisetra hita any amin'ireo toeram-pianarana. |
11 | New teaching methods were also introduced aside from promoting a curriculum that adopts the “integrative thematic concept.” | Nisy ihany koa ireo fomba fampianarana vaovao nampahafantarina ankoatra ny fanandratana ny fandaharam-pianarana izay mampiasa ny fomba “fampidirana lohahevitra”. |
12 | Mirzatus Solikhah summarizes the content of the school curriculum reform program: | Mamintina ny zavatra hita ao anatin'ilay fanovana ny fandaharam-pianarana i Mirzatus Solikhah: |
13 | The new curriculum fulfills three main components of education: knowledge, skill, and attitude. | Mameno ireto singan'ny fampianarana manaraka ireto io fandaharam-pianarana vaovao io: fahalalana, traikefa, ary fitondran-tena. |
14 | Knowledge is proved by the lesson in general. | Ny fahalalana dia voaporofon'ny lesona amin'ny ankapobeny. |
15 | Skill is from their practical lesson like sports and attitude is reflected by implementing the additional time for religion subject. | Ny traikefa dia avy amin'ireo taranja misy fampiharana tahaka ny fanatanjahan-tena ary ny fitondran-tena kosa dia mitaratra amin'ny alalan'ny fametrahana fotoana fanampiny ho an'ny taranja ara-pinoana. |
16 | The immediate impact might be the displacement of English and IT teachers: | Ny fiantraikany mihatra avy hatrany dia mety ho ny fanalàna ireo mpampianatra Anglisy sy IT: |
17 | English and IT (Information and Technology) teachers might lose their job. | Mety ho very asa ireo mpampianatra Anglisy sy IT (Teknolojia Fampahalalam-baovao). |
18 | In order for the reforms to work, the government must address the following issues: | Mba hahalavorary ireo fanovàna vaovao ireo, tsy maintsy miatrika ireto olana manaraka ireto ny governemanta: |
19 | At least there are three important things must be fixed. | Misy zavatra goavana telo tsy maintsy amboarina fara-faharatsiny. |
20 | They are the textbook, teacher training; education governance. | Izany dia ny boky fampianarana, ny fanofanana mpampianatra, ary ny fitantanana ny fampianarana. |
21 | But teachers complained that they were only given five days of training. | Nefa nitaraina ireo mpampianatra fa nomena fanofanana dimy andro fotsiny izy ireo. |
22 | Textbook shortages were also reported in several provinces. | Voatatitra avy any amin'ireo faritany maro ihany koa ny fahalanian'ny boky fampianarana. |
23 | Jennifer learned about the problem in the local paper: | Nahafantatra izany olana izany tamin'ny alalan'ny gazety tao an-toerana i Jennifer: |
24 | The local newspaper just published a story today that most of the students in targeted schools have not even received their textbooks. | Vao namoaka ny gazety taty an-toerana androany fa tsy nahazo boky fampianarana akory ny ankamaroan'ireo mpianatra any amin'ireo sekoly voakasik'izany. |
25 | When asked, the ministry's response was: get creative, search the materials on the internet, and photocopy them! | Rehefa nanontaniana ny minisitera dia izao no navaliny: mba mikarokaroka ny saina, tadiavo ao anaty aterineto ireo fitaovana, ary anaovy dika mitovy izy ireny! |
26 | M. | Faly i M. |
27 | Faruq Ubaidillah is happy that the reforms will give students more time to focus on fewer subjects: | Faruq Ubaidillah fa hanome fotoana betsaka kokoa ho an'ireo mpianatra hifantohany amina taranja vitsivitsy kokoa ireo fanovana ireo: |
28 | …this gesture will lead students to spend their time effectively and efficiently in the class during the teaching and learning process. | …hitarika ireo mpianatra handany ny fotoanany amin'ny fomba tsara sy raitra izany hetsika izany mandritra ny zotran'ny fampianarana sy ny fianarana. |
29 | They have no need to focus on such many subjects which only make them baffled. | Tsy mila mifantoka amina taranja maro loatra izay hanahiran-tsaina azy fotsiny izy ireo. |
30 | Isn't better to have fewer subjects with more focus rather that many but less focus. | Tsy aleo aza ve manana taranja vitsy sy fifantohana ambony toy izay maro nefa tsy misy fifantohana. |
31 | Furthermore, English can be learned outside the school time. | Ambonin'izay, azo ianarana ivelan'ny ora any an-tsekoly ny Anglisy. |
32 | But Harry Wardana didn't approve the removal of Science and English as separate subjects: | Fa tsy nanaiky ny fanaisorana ny Siansa sy ny Anglisy ho taranja mitokana kosa i Harry Wardana: |
33 | If you take a look at most modern nations, they're really putting preposterous concern on advancement of science and technology. | Raha mijery ny ankamaroan'ireo firenena mivoatra ianao, tena manome toerana mibahana ho an'ny fivoaran'ny siansa sy ny teknolojia izy ireo. |
34 | They believe that the advancement on science frontier will reset what it is for a nation to dream about. | Mino izy ireo fa hamerina izay nofinofisin'ny firenena iray ny firoson'ny fetran'ny siansa. |
35 | And sadly our government doesn't speak the same language, literally and figuratively. | Ary mampalahelo fa tsy miray feo amin'izany ny governemantantsika, na ara-bakiteny na ara-kevitra. |
36 | What a depressing mental landscape. | Endrika ara-tsaina tena mampalahelo. |
37 | Thalia also believes that the dropped subjects are essential components of basic education: | Mino ihany koa i Thalia fa singa tena ilaina amin'ny fanabeazana fototra ireo taranja naisorina ireo: |
38 | Curriculum 2013 puts attitude on the higher priority than skill competencies and knowledge. | Mametraka ny fitondran-tena ho ambony noho ny traikefa sy ny fahalalana ny fandaharam-pianarana 2013. |
39 | I wonder if the government forgot that for reaching the bright future good attitude must be accompanied by knowledge. | Manontany tena aho raha adinon'ny governemanta fa raha te-hahatratra ny hoavy mamiratra dia tsy maintsy arahan'ny fahalalana ny fitondran-tena. |
40 | Moreover, those subjects are very important for children's development. | Ankoatra izay, tena ilaina amin'ny fivoaran'ny ankizy ireo taranja ireo. |
41 | Agita Sesara asks if the government and schools are ready to implement the various reforms in the new curriculum: | Manontany i Agita Sesara raha vonona hametraka ireo fanovana samihafa ireo ao anatin'ny fandaharam-potoana vaovao ny governemanta sy ireo toeram-pianarana: |
42 | …this will be a very fundamental change. | …Ho fiovana hatrany ifotony ity. |
43 | This is not just a matter of eliminating subjects, but a complete alteration of the core teaching methods of the current pool of teachers. | Tsy resaka fanaisorana taranja fotsiny ihany, fa fanovana tanteraka ny fomba fampianaran'ireo vondrona mpampianatra amin'izao fotoana. |
44 | Will the teachers be able to keep up with the changes? | Hahay hifehy izany fanovana izany ve ireo mpampianatra? |
45 | Are all the resources and personnel involved in education ready to adapt? | Vonona hiatrehana izany ve ireo fitaovana rehetra sy ny mpiasa voakasiky ny fampianarana? |
46 | If the answer is no, then the change will be nothing but an empty gesture. | Raha tsia ny valiny, dia tsy ho inona fa hetsika poak'aty fotsiny io fiovana io. |
47 | International Education 2012 mentions the accusation made by some groups that the reforms were done to justify the offering of more religious topics in the curriculum: | Manonona ireo fiampangana nataon'ireo vondrona sasany ny Fampianarana Iraisam-pirenena 2012 fa hoe natao ireo fanovana ireo mba hanamarinana ny fanolorana fotokevitra ara-pinoana betsaka kokoa ao anatin'ny fandaharam-pianarana: |
48 | …critics of the proposal do not think that a curriculum overhaul is the answer. | …mihevitra ireo mpitsikera io soso-kevitra io fa tsy vahaolana ny fanovana ny fandaharam-pianarana. |
49 | Some teachers worry that government and religious leaders are oversimplifying the problem and are using terms like “character building” and “morality” to justify more religious education. | Manahy ireo mpampianatra sasany fa manamaivana ilay olana ny governemanta sy ireo mpitarika ara-pinoana ary mampiasa fomba fiteny tahaka ny “fanamboarana ny fitondran-tena” sy ny “toe-tsaina” mba hanamarinana ny fampitomboana ny fanabeazana ara-pinoana. |
50 | Perhaps to appease critics, the government vowed to hold a “Curriculum Census” next month to assess the impact of the reforms. | Angamba mba hampitoniana ireo tsikera, nianiana hanatanteraka “Fitsapan-kevitra mikasika io fandaharam-pianarana io” ny governemanta amin'ny volana ambony mba haminavinana ny fiantraikan'ireo fanovana. |
51 | It also allotted more funds for the training of teachers in preparation for the nationwide implementation of the reforms next year. | Nanome fanohanana ara-bola amboniny ihany koa izy ho an'ny fanofanana ireo mpampianatra amin'ny fanomanana ny fampiharana ireo fanovana ireo manerana ny firenena amin'ny herintaona. |
