Kompas, page 11, Saturday, November 21To guarantee the quality of early childhood education (PAUD), every institution should be accredited. However, out of a total of 190,161 PAUD institutions already accredited, the majority are kindergartens (TK), i.e.: 31,475 institutions. Such conditions depict there are still more institutions whose equipment and infrastructure conditions and the quality of their teacher competency is not yet in accordance with the standard.Director of PAUD Development Ministry of Education and Culture, Ella Yulaelawati announced, from a total of 588,475 educators/teachers for PAUD, most, i.e. 289,762 people are still SMA graduates. There are also SMP graduates, i.e.: 22,972 people. While educators who are already S-1 graduates are only 196,181 people.The latest study of Education Sector Analytical and Capacity Development Partnership (ACDP) states, there are still many nonformal PAUD institutions not capable of meeting all eight standards set in Minister of Education and Culture Regulation Number 137 Year 2014 on PAUD National Standard.

In order to provide quality learning, PAUD teachers should have personal skills, commitment, and affection towards children rather than merely formal qualifications.Tedjawati, from the Center of Education and Culture Policy Research Kemdikbud said, in the meantime, the educational backgrounds of educators in PAUD still could be understood/tolerated because the process of competency improvement is also underway. For now, what is important is the commitment of the educators.Financing model for PAUD is considered complex. Public investment has helped PAUD development, but not entirely on target to increasing equality. The ACDP study states the current financing model tends to support PAUD centers that could already finance its institution and obtain public support in training.

Actually, operational support should be provided to PAUD centers that are less developed and of low capacity. Republika, halaman 5Orang tua yang ingin mengajarkan anaknya baca, tulis dan berhitung (calistung) sejak dini sebaiknya harus berpikir ulang karena ternyata, menurut para ahli, hal itu dapat merusak tatanan otak anak.Pakar tumbuh kembang anak dari Universitas Airlangga DR Dr Ahmad Suryawan SpA(K) mengingatkan para orang tua untuk tidak mengajarkan calistung sebelum sang anak masuk ke Sekolah Dasar (SD) atau berumur tujuh tahun. Karena, mengajarkan anak calistung sebelum waktunya dapat merusak tatanan otak anak, dalam artian anak dalam mengerjakan sesuatu tidak runtut atau selaras.Seharusnya anak yang berumur di bawah tujuh tahun bisa membentuk garis lurus, menggaris, membentuk gambar bangun sederhana dan sebagainya. Sayangnya, pada masyarakat modern saat ini, anak belum tentu bisa menggambar garis lurus malah belajar menghitung.Ahmad menambahkan, salah kaprah pandangan orang tua saat ini disebabkan oleh cara menilai prestasi anak dari hal yang berbau matematika atau akademik dan melupakan prestasi nonakademik.

Calistung boleh dikenalkan pada anak usia PAUD, tapi tidak boleh jadi evaluasi prestasi. Republika, page 5Parents who want to teach reading, writing and counting (calistung) to their children at early ages of the children must rethink since it, according to experts, can do harm to children’s brain order.Child development expert at Airlangga University DR Dr Ahmad Suryawan SpA(K) warned parents not to teach calistung before the children entered elementary school or already reached seven years old. Teaching calistung to children prematurely could do harm to their brain. It meant children were not able to accomplish works in an orderly manner.Children aged under-seven years old are supposed to be able to draw straight line, line, draw simple shapes and so on. Unfortunately, in this current modern society, children start to learn counting while they are not necessarily able yet to draw straight line.Ahmad added the parents’ failure to understand was rooted on how they measured their children’s achievements which still focused on mathematics and academic-related things and neglected non-academic achievements.

While calistung can be introduced to early-aged children, it should not be used to evaluate achievements.Posted in Tagged. Kompas, halaman 6(Tajuk Rencana)Pekan ini, di Jakarta, muncul gugatan tentang proses pendidikan anak usia dini. Gugatan muncul karena pembelajaran membaca, menulis, dan berhitung tidak hanya memberatkan anak-anak usia dini, 0-6 tahun, yang sedang berada dalam usia bermain, tetapi juga dianggap menindas karena dipaksakan. Praktik pendidikan yang menindas itu diangkat dalam diskusi “Pendidikan Anak Usia Dini (PAUD) yang Holistik dan Terintegrasi: Prospek dan Tantangan”, yang diselenggarakan Education Sector Analytical and Capacity Development Partnership itu, antara lain, mempertanyakan pembelajaran membaca dan berhitung di PAUD.Proses pendidikan yang menekan dan menindas tentu saja menyesatkan karena dapat mengganggu dan membahayakan perkembangan anak-anak.

Masa kanak-kanak disebut indah dan menyenangkan, antara lain, karena keleluasaan bermain. Lebih-lebih lagi bermain merupakan kodrat manusia, di samping sebagai makhluk bekerja. Anak-anak, sesuai dengan perkembangannya, membutuhkan permainan.Anak-anak ditindas oleh keinginan orangtua yang menganggap kualitas PAUD diukur dari hasil membaca, menulis, dan berhitung anak-anak. Penindasan dalam bidang pendidikan sudah sering disoroti selama ini.Siswa dan mahasiswa di Indonesia dinilai terlalu dijejali berbagai mata pelajaran atau mata kuliah yang menekankan daya menghafal ketimbang daya reflektif kritis dan dialogis. Guru tak dapat dipersalahkan sepenuhnya karena dituntut mengikuti kurikulum yang disusun pemerintah, yang belum tentu relevan dengan kebutuhan pendidikan.Tantangan pendidikan Indonesia tentu saja tidak hanya dari prosesnya, tetapi juga dari hasilnya. Kemampuan sarjana-sarjana tamatan pendidikan Indonesia memacu kemajuan bangsa dan negara, seperti di banyak negara, sering dipertanyakan.Posted inTagged. Kompas, page 6(Editorial)Strong criticism over the process of early childhood education appeared this week in Jakarta.

It criticized the inclusion of reading, writing and counting into learning materials since it did not only burden early-aged children (0 -6 year-old children) who were still in their playing ages but also oppress the children. This oppressive education was explored at a discussion titled “Holistic and Integrated Early Childhood Education (PAUD): Prospects and Challenges” held by Education Sector Analytical and Capacity Development Partnership, among others by questioning the learning of reading and counting at PAUD.The oppressive education is surely misleading since it can undermine and do harm to child development. Child period is supposed to be beautiful and pleasant, among others by enjoying freedom to play. Furthermore, playing -aside from a productive being- is one human nature. Children, compatible with their growth, need games.Children are oppressed by the desire of their parents who deem PAUD quality is measured by its students’ competency to read, write and count. In fact, repression in the education sector had been frequently highlighted.School and university students in Indonesia are deemed overwhelmed by various subjects and courses that emphasize memorizing instead of reflective, critical and dialogic thinking.

Teachers cannot be completely blamed for this situation since they are required to comply with curriculums developed by the government. There is no assurance the curriculums are relevant with education needs.Indonesia’s education challenges does not only relate to its process but also indeed to its results. The competency of Indonesian education graduates to accelerate the nation’s progress, as evident in many countries, remains questionable.Posted inTagged. Media Indonesia, halaman 11Direktur Jenderal Pendidikan Anak Usia Dini dan Pendidikan Masyarakat Kementerian Pendidikan dan Kebudayaan (Kemendikbud) Harris Iskandar menegaskan sistem mengajar pendidikan anak usia dini (PAUD) yang memaksakan anak-anak untuk membaca dan berhitung dianggap sudah melanggar aturan. Dalam Permendikbud No 137/2014 tentang Standar Nasional PAUD, salah satunya menyebutkan proses pembelajaran pada program PAUD harus sesuai dengan tingkatan usia anak.Harris mengatakan, memang sebenarnya tidak ada larangan mengajarkan anak membaca saat PAUD, tetapi kalau dilakukan dengan pendekatan yang tidak sesuai itu bisa dianggap melanggar. Menurut Harris, pengajaran terhadap anak usia dini harus dilakukan dengan cara-cara yang menyenangkan seperti bermain.

Hal ini diyakini mampu merangsang pertumbuhan otak anak.Akan tetapi, jelas Harris, faktanya, tidak semua lembaga PAUD memakai metode pendekatan semacam itu. Terhadap yang demikian, ia mengakui, tidak akan dikenakan sanksi dalam bentuk apapun. Ketimbang memberikan sanksi, lebih tepat bagi lembaga tersebut diberikan pembinaan sehingga bisa meningkatkan kualitas layanan PAUD yang dinilai masih rendah.Pemerhati PAUD Kasandra Putranto menekankan agar pemerintah bisa memberikan pelatihan secara khusus demi meningkatkan kapasitas pendidikan PAUD di Indonesia. Itu penting, karena seorang guru yang mengajar PAUD harus memahami anak-anak secara keseluruhan. Tanpa terkecuali, memerhatikan perkembangan psikologi anak.Posted inTagged. Media Indonesia, page 12Director General of Early Childhood Education and Public Education Ministry of Education and Culture (Kemendikbud) Harris Iskandar asserted the early childhood (PAUD) education teaching system that forces children to read and count is considered in violation of the rules.

In Permendikbud No 137/2014 on PAUD National Standard, it mentions the learning process in PAUD program should be appropriate to the child’s age.Harris said, there is actually no ban on teaching children to read in PAUD, but if it is done with inappropriate approach could be considered in violation. According to Harris, teaching children in early childhood should be conducted in an enjoyable way such as playing. This is believed to stimulate children’s brain growth.However, explained Harris, the fact is, not all PAUD institutions use such method of approach. Against such practices, he claimed there would not be any sanction imposed in any form whatsoever. Rather than imposing sanctions, it is more appropriate for such institutions to be given guidance to improve PAUD service quality which is still deemed still low.PAUD observer Kasandra Putranto emphasized that the government could provide special training for the sake of improving PAUD education capacity in Indonesia.

This is important, because a teacher who teaches PAUD must understand children overall. Without exception, paying attention to children’s psychological development.Posted inTagged Post navigation.
