Or TOEFL ITP is also okay. They, several partner campuses, allow students to register with the TOEFL ITP,” said Nihlah Ilhami, Head of the International Mobility Division, UII on June 11, 2021 at the UII Communication Program International Teatime casual talk. Nihlah said that English language skills must be improved from now on if students plan to expand their experience abroad.

“At least you can try toefl ITP first. Because some partners still accept this, especially for short programs or ICT (International Credit Transfers),” explained Nihlah. “Especially our partners in Asia such as Malaysia and Thailand. Europe and Australia still require IELTS,” he said. Nihlah said, we can improve English language skills also use a relatively easy method using the Duolingo application, he said.

“If you are interested in registering for the IISMA (Indonesian International Study Mobility Awards) tomorrow, it is reported that the quota has been increased by the ministry. Try registering first. Then just test one of the IELTS or TOEFL ITP, “advises Nihlah. According Nihlah, students can also try an online test TOEFL free.” for a time normally allowed to be. And I’m sure you can do it, you’re still young, do it.

“Whatare the conditions for the program of international mobility ?

“Suppose such IISMA, programs carried out regularly every year, drawn by the Kemendikbud ristek. You first must have a passport,” said Nihlah. This condition is the most important first. “Even though this is a pandemic situation, a passport is still a requirement that you must have. You must have a GPA of 3 to join any program abroad. Because our partners require it,” he added. The next requirement is of course English, as evidenced by TOEFL or IELTS. The rest is self-readiness to recognize culture and exchange views in a globalized world. “We will learn about the local people there, the language, culture, and various experiences that are really very different,” he said.

How does this mobility program take place during a pandemic. “The majority of countries have closed visits, but don’t worry, there is always virtual mobility. But now we know that there are several countries that have opened their own countries, such as the Netherlands and South Korea,” said Nihlah. Some UII students have started to go for dual degree studies to several partner countries and have opened overseas visits. “That’s why we have partners in the Netherlands and South Korea. Our faculty students at FBE have made a mobility trip to South Korea yesterday, Alhamdulillah, and have arrived there safely,” he said.

Branding and marketing local products are the key to successful sales during a pandemic. Covid-19 has indeed hit micro, small and medium enterprises. But other than that, collaboration is a new trick rather than getting dizzy with the competition.

“I don’t see the similarity of products as competition. I recommend diligently monitoring at distribution locations,” said Dwi. “Even though there are many similar products in distribution locations, I don’t think it’s time for competition but collaboration,” said Dwi Karti Handayani, founder of Wedang Uwuh UMKM, by June 12, 2021. The UMKM is named Den Bagus. Dwi is speaking on an online seminar on the task activity in the commercial communication project management course at the Department of Communications, UII.

Dwi Karti was a speaker in a webinar on branding and product marketing during the pandemic, together with Den Bagus and eight projects. Eight Project is one of the creations of the students of the course. They choose Eight Project as the name.

“Who knows if we can’t meet the export demand, we can fulfill it by collaborating with other similar products,” added Dwi Karti. According to Dwi Karti, “For me, it’s unique in the packaging. Then, when people have repeated orders, we will talk about customer loyalty.”

This event uses a flash sale technique. Flash Sale encourages viewers to make direct purchases while getting discounted prices.

Flash sale Den Bagus and den ayu specifically for products with specific characteristics. Call it red ginger, which has higher properties, and ginger emprit, which is spicier.

In addition, there is also a processed product that is more popular during the pandemic, namely Wedang Uwuh Jakute. Jakute is an Indonesian abbreviation of ginger turmeric, temulawak or commonly called empon-empon in Indonesia. The combination of the benefits of empon-empon.

“This is the most sought after by buyers. There are friends whose products are sought by French buyers,” said Dwi Karti. “Our products are widely known abroad. There is a noni drink. My mother used this drink to take this and her back pain recovered,” She added, giving testimony.

According to Dwi Karti, these local products are essential and of high quality. For example, the Den Ayu noni product no longer smells bad. It is packaged instantaneously. Similar products also have a special drink (Wedang) product for red rosella. “Instant packaging and wrapping, the packaging is pressed so that it is not easily damaged,” She added.

Penjenamaan (branding) dan pemasaran (marketing) produk lokal adalah kunci penjualan sukses pada masa pandemi. Covid-19 memang telah memukul usaha mikro kecil menengah. Namun selain itu, kolaborasi adalah trik baru ketimbang pusing dengan kompetisi.

“Saya nggak melihat kesamaan produk sebagai persaingan. Saya menganjurkan untuk rajin memantau di lokasi-lokasi distribusi. Meskipun di lokasi distribusi banyak produk yang sejenis, saya berpikir tidak jamannya lagi kompetisi tapi kolaborasi,” kata Dwi Karti Handayani, pendiri UMKM Wedang Uwuh, dengan jenama Den Bagus pada 12 Juni 2021, sebagai kegiatan tugas dalam mata kuliah manajemen project komunikasi komersil.

Dwi Karti menjadi pembicara dalam Webinar branding dan marketing produk di masa pandemi, bersama den bagus dan eight project. Eight Project adalah salah satu kreasi mahasiswa yang mengambil mata kuliah itu. Para mahasiswa ini mengambil nama kelompok Eight Project.

“Siapa tahu kalau kita tak dapat memenuhi permintaan ekspor, kita bisa memenuhinya dengan kolaborasi produk lain sejenis,” imbuh Dwi Karti. Menurut Dwi Karti, “Kalau saya ini uniknya di kemasan. Nah baru nanti kalau orang sudah repeat order baru kita bicara loyalitas pelanggan.”

Acara ini menggunakan teknik flash sale. Flash Sale mendorong pemirsa melakukan pembelian langsung sekaligus mendapat potongan harga.

Flash sale denbagus dan den ayu khusus pada produk-produk dengan karakteristik tertentu. Sebut saja seperti jahe merah yang khasiatnya lebih tinggi, dan jahe emprit yang lebih pedas.

Selain itu ada pula produk olahan yang lebih populer di masa pandemi adalah wedang uwuh jakute. Jakute adalah kependekan dari jahe kunir temulawak atau biasa disebut empon-empon. Gabungan dari manfaat empon-empon.

“Ini yang paling banyak dicari pembeli. Ada teman yang produknya dicari pembeli Prancis,” kata Dwi Karti. “Produk kita sudah banyak dikenal luar negeri. Ada wedang mengkudu. Ibu saya dulu konsumsi ini backpainnya (sakit punggung) pulih,” tambahnya memberi kesaksian.

Menurut Dwi Karti, produk lokal ini penting dan bermutu tinggi. Misalnya, produk mengkudu Den ayu sudah tidak bau. Ia dikemas instan. Produk serupa juga ada produk wedang khas untuk rosela merah. “Kemasan instan dan wrapping, dipress kemasannya sehingga tidak mudah rusak,” imbuhnya.

Becoming an inspiring speaker or preacher must start from changing habits. If you still have the habit of “followers,” it is undoubtedly difficult to become a reliable speaker. People with habits and mental “followers” tend to like lying down, lazy, unproductive. Meanwhile, people with a “viewer” mentality are always curious, don’t make changes, and follow the environment but don’t know what they want.

“Reliable speakers must start to build mental “climbers.” Mental climbers usually have strong discipline, adaptation, and optimism,” said Risma Kusumanendra, one of the speakers on Friday (11/6/2021) in the oral Da’wah training “Inspiring Public Speaker.” The training raised the theme of realizing enthusiastic preachers, interesting, fun, and inspiring communication.

Risma quotes Professor Carol Dweck in The New Psychology of Success, and there are two mindsets of a successful person. The first is the “fixed” mindset. This mindset assumes no opportunity at all to learn and grow. Everything remains. In comparison, the second mindset is a growth mindset which is a fixed mindset. This mindset assumes that everything can develop over time, and everything can be learned.

For Risma, three soft skills are needed to be a preacher: “Integrity, namely honesty, morals, personal values. The second is communication skills such as speaking, writing, presenting, and listening. Then the third is having good manners and ethics.”

This training is oral da’wah training for educators in the UII FPSB environment. Apart from Risma, other presenters who inspired were Kiki F. Wijaya, a motivator and soft skill trainer. Kiki discusses techniques for managing persuasion, overcoming stage fright, and the characters of inspirational preachers.

Menjadi pembicara atau pendakwah yang menginspirasi harus dimulai dari mengubah kebiasaan. Bila masih memiliki kebiasaan “follower” tentu sulit menjadi pembicara handal. Orang dengan kebiasaan dan mental “follower” cenderung suka rebahan, malas, tidak produktif. Sedangkan orang dengan mental “viewer” justru selalu kepo, tidak melakukan perubahan, dan mengikuti lingkungan tetapi tidak tahu mau seperti apa.

“Pembicara handal harus mulai membangun mental “climbers.” Mental climbers biasanya memiliki disiplin kuat, adaptasi, dan optimisme,” kata Risma Kusumanendra, salah satu pembicara pada Jumat (11/6/2021) dalam pelatihan Dakwah lisan “Inspiring Public Speaker.” Pelatihan kali ini mengangkat tema mewujudkan pendakwah yang antusias, Komunikasi yang menarik, Menyenangkan, dan Penuh Inspirasi.

Risma mengutip Profesor Carol Dweck, dalam The New Psychology of Success, ada dua pola pola pikir (mindset) seorang yang sukses. Pertama, adalah pola pikir “fixed”. Pola pikir ini menganggap tidak ada kesempatan sama sekali untuk belajar dan tumbuh. Semuanya tetap. Sedangkan pola pikir kedua, adalah pola pikir growth yang merupakan dari pola pikir fixed. Mindset ini menganggap semua dapat berkembang dari waktu ke waktu dan segalanya dapat dipelajari.

Bagi Risma, ada tiga soft skill yang dibutuhkan menjadi pendakwah seperti, “Integritas yaitu kejujuran, moral, nilai-nilai personal. Yang kedua adalah keterampilan komunikasi seperti kemampuan bicara, tertulis, mempresentasi kan, dan mendengarkan. Lalu yang ketiga adalah memiliki sopan santun dan etika.”

Pelatihan ini adalah pelatihan dakwah lisan untuk tenaga pendidik di lingkungan FPSB UII. Selain Risma, pemateri lain yang hadir memberi inspirasi adalah Kiki F. Wijaya, motivator dan soft skill trainer. Kiki membahas mengenai teknik mengelola persuasi, mengatasi demam panggung, dan karakter-karakter da’i inspiratif.

The Ambyar generation is closely related to the famous indonesian keroncong dangdut singer named Didi Kempot. The popularity of Didi Kempot has occurred in recent years. It has changed the image of dangdut music which is considered “villager.” Nowadays dangdut changed into a genre that is popular across generations and across segments. This is Didi Kempot’s second popularity after the popularity of his first era in the 80-90s.

Didi Kempot, nicknamed the Godfather of Broken Heart, has songs that generally have a broken heart theme. Even so, the feeling of heartbreak can actually be enjoyed and can be celebrated by dancing. Didi Kempot also took part in popularizing the word “ambyar” to represent feelings of heartbreak.

“Didi Kempot was the first to link how ‘ambyar’ is to represent us: pieces, a broken heart, a heart that hurts to tell stories,” said Michael HB Raditya, speaker in the discussion “Reading the Ambyar Generation: New Dangdut and Communication Problems” on Thursday, 27 May 2021. Nadim Communications UII, the Center for Alternative Media Studies and Documentation (PSDMA), held this discussion online and broadcast live by Uniicoms TV (the first online TV at UII).

New Dangdut and Its Problems

The popularity of Didi Kempot’s songs with the theme of heartbreak made many young dangdut singers follow this style and gave birth to what Michael calls “New Dangdut.”

According to Michael, the characteristics of the new dangdut are the dominating broken heart lyrics. Not to mention that they also have the awareness to make their own music. In addition, other characteristics are the charm of young people who continue to be built, as well as the making of simple but powerful video clips.

“But there are two problems in the new dangdut. First, this is pop music, the opposite of pop music is boredom. How is the sustainability of this new dangdut,” said Michael.

“Whether the dangdut era will continue or will it be temporary, and secondly, there is no new innovation in the new dangdut itself,” said Michael, who is the founder of the Dangdut Studies Center and also a musician at the dangdut band named Jarang Pulang.

The new dangdut has changed a lot of dangdut music culture. Male singers are becoming more common, and also audiences are free to cry while listening to heartbreak songs. Music are also widely distributed digitally. The image of dangdut has also changed. It is changed from music that is considered “village” to contemporary music that can be enjoyed by anyone. Instantly shifting the popularity of old dangdut a la Rhoma, Meggy Z, to a new wave of ‘ambyar’ dangdut. It is now contemporary and identically to Didi Kempot’s style: Congdut/ Keroncong Dangdut.

 

 

Inclusive schools, schools with teachers, students, curriculum, facilities, activities as well as a friendly vision and mission for students with various tendencies and talents. Many schools of this kind have been abandoned, and even tend to be forgotten by separating students with special needs in Special Schools (SLB), and non-special needs in public schools. There are various kinds of school readiness to realize inclusive schools; a school that is friendly to every child’s diversity and uniqueness.

This discussion about reconnecting inclusive communication spaces is a series of community service activities initiated by Holy Rafika Dhona, MA lecturer in Communication Studies at the Indonesian Islamic University FPSB in the Geography and Environmental Communication Research cluster. This discussion invited Ana Rukma Dewi from ECCD-RC (Early Childhood Care and Development Resource Center) an online information centre and early childhood service, Saturday 5 June 2021.

The discussion entitled ‘Reconnection 2021: the introduction of inclusive schools and their practice in Indonesia’ re-considered an inclusive learning space for all people who had been cut off by the separation of learning spaces for children with special needs (disabled) and without special needs ( non-ABK). “The room is a shared construction including a study room for ABK. So far, inclusive schools have been mere slogans,” said Dhona.

To see how long the school system is not inclusive to make it easier for participants to understand schooling practices in Indonesia, participants are invited to play. This game simulation is to set special requirements for participants who are allowed to take part in the game in the zoom breakroom room. The game begins by selecting participants who use wifi, use no cellphones, and have ID cards outside Jogja.

Those who do not meet these criteria will be eliminated. Many participants cannot enter because they use internet package quotas, use cellphones, and have Jogja ID cards. Participants who were unable to enter the breakroom were very sad and curious about what was happening there. That’s the school simulation that happened.

Schooling practices that have been said to be inclusive so far are still far from ideal. There are many provisions that must be prepared seriously by all parties, both the government, the school’s vision and mission, teachers, activities, as well as school facilities and infrastructure. In addition, it is also important to take into account the readiness of parents and students. “Are parents and other students prepared for the possible consequences side-by-side in inclusive schools?” said Ana.

Every worship is not just a ritual. Worship that is ritualistic has an important mission, namely the formation of noble character, morality and Akhlakul karimah. Like a tree, a ritual is a trunk that will branch and bear sweet fruit in the form of morals that manifests itself in social solidarity.

The theme of social solidarity was raised during the Syawalan Online which was held by the Family of the Faculty of Psychology and Socio-Cultural (FPSB) of the Islamic University of Indonesia (UII) on Saturday, June 5, 2021. This online Syawalan present KH Dr. Tulus Musthofa, Lc., MA was attended by all teaching staff of FPSB UII education staff, also by representatives of parents of FPSB UII students.

Mustafa emphasized that the main purpose of sending the Prophet Muhammad in the world was to perfect morals. Noble morality is the main thing as a tree has roots, there are branches, leaves, finally fruit. While the will and the main stem are rituals such as prayer, fasting, zakat, and hajj. While the fruit has a noble character. “Behind the ritual there is prayer, there are values ​​of leadership, sensitivity to questions, discipline, faith, and so on. Behind fasting there is sincerity, self-control, introspection, and so on,” said Mustafa.

To measure ourselves whether we already have noble character or not is to check ourselves whether we are able to act and do good reflexively or not. People who have been able to behave and act well, reflexively, have good morals in them. Mustafa refers to Imam Ghozali to define what morality is. Derived from the word khuluk, namely the nature embedded in the soul that encourages the birth of change easily, lightly, without consideration and deep thoughts.

Noble morality can be formed in a process that is not short. According to Mustafa, there are three processes that must be followed.

The first process is to rid oneself of lust. This is not easy because every human being is given lust by Allah swt, but humans must be able to control it to eliminate his lust even though the desire is still in him.

The second process is self-education. This process is definitely not easy because educating yourself requires high consistency. Not just once or twice, but continuously. The third is a positive atmosphere or environment. A positive environment will make it easier for someone to behave and get used to life in a certain way.

Social solidarity can be grown with these three processes. Social solidarity is not only done during the holy month. But the holy month should be a trigger to foster social solidarity. “Prophet Muhammad SAW was the most generous person. And during Ramadan, his generosity is like a strong wind,” Mustafa said.

“Philanthropy can be with material possessions. But what if I have no possessions? It can be by helping other people’s work with energy. What if you still can’t use energy? You can invite kindness. But what about uneducated? If so, don’t do anything bad. It’s already sodakoh/ islamic philanthropy,” said Mustafa explaining the types of philanthropy.

Charity is not only by providing assistance and care for orphans, the elderly, widows, and special needs. Concern for these three categories is primary. But solidarity in the form of freeing servants, feeding the hungry, defending the oppressed, and supporting people with special needs are also essential. “It’s not my group that people don’t pay attention to the problems of the people,” said Mustafa following the Sunnah of Rasulullah.
