Sosialisasi pelaksanaan kompetisi 2015 dilaksanakan selama Oktober dan November 2014 oleh Ombudsman melalui beberapa kampus di Jakarta dan Bandung.

Anies Baswedan: Mendidik dengan “Reward and Punishment” Sudah Kuno

JAKARTA, KOMPAS.com – Model pendidikan dengan memberi penghargaan dan hukuman bagi anak didik dinilai sudah ketinggalan zaman.

Menteri Pendidikan dan Kebudayaan Anies Baswedan menyebutkan, cara yang dikenal dengan istilah “reward and punishment” itu tidak efektif lagi diterapkan kepada anak-anak di masa sekarang.

Reward and punishment itu kuno. Kalau bicara pendidikan, yang harus dibangun adalah positif disiplin,” kata Anies saat berbicara dalam acara Kompasianival 2015 di Gandaria City, Jakarta Selatan, Sabtu (12/12/2015).

Makna positif disiplin yang dimaksud oleh Anies adalah mengupayakan suatu kondisi di mana seseorang yang mengalami kegagalan terpacu untuk menjadi lebih baik lagi.

Anies mencontohkan dampak dari penerapan reward and punishment, dengan situasi seorang murid telat datang ke sekolah, dihukum berdiri sepanjang jam pelajaran oleh gurunya.

Dari hal itu, dapat dilihat, hukuman yang diberikan sama sekali tidak berhubungan dengan telat datang ke sekolah.

Hukuman seperti itu juga tidak menjamin sang murid tidak telat lagi di kemudian hari.

“Datang terlambat ke sekolah, dihukum berdiri. Nyambungenggak antara terlambat dan berdiri? Itu buat puas gurunya saja,” tutur Anies.

Mantan rektor Universitas Paramadina itu juga mengajak para orangtua dan pendidik agar jangan melihat anak seperti kertas kosong.

Perumpamaan anak seperti kertas kosong memang marak, namun sebaiknya, anak dianggap sebagai biji atau benih.

“Kayak kata Ki Hadjar Dewantoro, anak-anak kita seperti biji. Tugas kita, menumbuhkan biji. Akarnya enggak terlihat. Batang, daun, juga tak nampak. Tapi, kalau diberi kesempatan tumbuh, akan jadi tanaman yang indah,” ujar Anies.

Becoming a better designer

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book.

It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English.

Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).

There are many variations of passages of Lorem Ipsum available, but the majority have suffered alteration in some form, by injected humour, or randomised words which don’t look even slightly believable.

If you are going to use a passage of Lorem Ipsum, you need to be sure there isn’t anything embarrassing hidden in the middle of text. All the Lorem Ipsum generators on the Internet tend to repeat predefined chunks as necessary, making this the first true generator on the Internet.

It uses a dictionary of over 200 Latin words, combined with a handful of model sentence structures, to generate Lorem Ipsum which looks reasonable. The generated Lorem Ipsum is therefore always free from repetition, injected humour, or non-characteristic words etc.

The standard chunk of Lorem Ipsum used since the 1500s is reproduced below for those interested. Sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 from “de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum” by Cicero are also reproduced in their exact original form, accompanied by English versions from the 1914 translation by H. Rackham.
