Pembelajaran saat masih di SMA tentu sangat berbeda setelah menuju dunia perkuliahan. Dosen bukanlah tuhan. Artinya, mahasiswa dituntut belajar mandiri dengan sistem belajar berbeda. Peran dosen hanya menemani dan membimbing mahasiswa, dan tentu saja mahasiswa harus sadar sejak mula: mahasiswa berbeda dari siswa biasa seperti saat masih di SMP ataupun SMA.

Begitulah pesan yang disampaikan Herman Felani, Dosen Komunikasi UII, yang juga fokus pada kajian riset film dan kajian budaya Amerika. Herman memberikan banyak pesan dan panduan itu untuk para mahasiswa baru angkatan 2020 pada acara bertajuk “Welcoming day” pada Rabu (23/9). Acara ini juga sekaligus adalah pembekalan untuk mahasiswa baru menghadapi kuliah daring.

Respon Mahasiswa Baru: dari Pandemi hingga Kuliah Daring

Pembekalan ini dilakukan menggunakan Aplikasi Mentimeter. Aplikasi yang bisa melakukan survei dan sekaligus presentasi dan permainan ini menemukan banyak temuan. Saat ini mayoritas maba tetap berada di pulau jawa. Kebanyakan Maba memilih Komunikasi UII karena jurusan yang menyenangkan dan memiliki prospek kerja yang luas. Dari data 1186 pendaftar Komunikasi UII 2020 (per 22 September 2020) hanya 256 yang terpilih untuk menjadi mahasiswa Komunikasi UII. Komunikasi UII merupakan jurusan Favorit di UII dan maba merasa termotivasi.

Sementara itu, perasaan maba saat terkumpul juga di apliaksi menti ini. Pada masa pandemi ini kebanyakan maba merasakan sedih dan bosan. Muncul beragam kendala yang didapatkan. Misalnya sinyal dan juga keuangan. Perlu mengeluarkan lebih banyak biaya. “Sedih, susah sinyal, bosen dan no life,” kata maba yang menulis namanya Bedul, dari Majalengka.

Herman Felani menjelaskan mahasiswa dituntut untuk mengikuti kuliah daring dan mempelajari sistem pembelajaran terbaru ini. Menurutnya, maba angkatan 2020 adalah generasi visual dan millenials. Selain adanya beragam kekurangannya, yang didapatkan dari kelas daring juga memiliki kelebihan. Misalnya membuka kesempatan kerja tim tanpa batas. Buat tugas bersama dengan mahasiswa lain, prodi lain, kampus lain, bahkan negara lain. Sementara itu, berada di komunikasi UII, mahasiswa dapat bertukar opini dengan dosen tanpa canggung.

Hal ini bisa diberikan seperti dengan memberikan rekomendasi video, channel youtube, podcast, dan sebagainya. Baginya, kata Herman, dosen dan mahasiswa adalah rekan. Bukan tuhan dan hambanya. Herman juga membagikan sumber-sumber alternatif untuk mendapatkan E-book dan film Dokumenter sebagai salah satu media pembelajaran mahasiswa. Hal ini dapat menjadi modal mahasiswa dalam mengarungi pembelajaran sinkron dan asinkron.

Herman mengatakan bahwa angkatan 2020 ini adalah angkatan mahasiswa pertama yang kuat mengikuti kuliah dengan sistem full online. “Ini adalah tuntutan zaman, yakinlah pasti akan ada hikmahnya,” kata Herman memberi semangat.

Nothing Will Work Unless You Do,” tulis Herman di layar presentasinya mengutip kata-kata bijak dari seorang penulis Afrika Amerika, Maya Angelou. Kutipan ini dibuat agar memotivasi mahasisawa Ilmu Komunikasi UII angaktan 2020. Setelah itu, acara diakhiri dengan tanya jawab dan bagi-bagi merchandise menarik untuk penanya terbaik. Tentu tak lupa berfoto bersama untuk mengenang masa Welcoming Day 2020.

How to Adjust to Online Lecture with Department of Communication Science

Studying while still in high school is certainly very different after going to the world of higher education. Lecturers are not gods. This means that students are required to study independently with a different learning system. The role of a lecturer is only to accompany and guide students, and of course students must be aware from the start: higher education students are different from ordinary students such as when they were in junior high or high school.

That was the message conveyed by Herman Felani, UII Lecturer in Department of Communications Science, who also focuses on film research studies and American cultural studies. Herman gave many of these messages and guidelines for new students of the 2020 class at an event entitled “Welcoming day” on Wednesday (23/9). This event is also a provision for new students to encounter online lectures because of pandemic.

New Student Responses: from the Pandemic to Online Lecture

This briefing is carried out using the Mentimeter Application. This application that can conduct surveys as well as presentations and games finds many findings. Currently the majority of freshperson remain on the island of Java. Most freshperson choose Communication Science of UII because the majors are fun and have broad job prospects. From the data of 1186 freshperson of UII 2020 Communication applicants (as of September 22, 2020) only 256 were selected to become  Communication Science students. UII Communication Science is the favorite department at UII and therefore all the freshperson feel motivated.

Meanwhile, the feelings of new students when they are collected are also in this min application. During this pandemic, most freshmen felt sad and bored. Various obstacles arise. For example signals and also finance. Need to spend more. “Sad, difficult to signal, bored and no life,” said the new student who wrote his name Bedul, from Majalengka.

Herman Felani explained that students are required to take online lectures and learn about this latest learning system. According to him, freshmen class 2020 are a visual generation and millennial. Apart from its various drawbacks, those that are obtained from online classes also have advantages. For example, opening up unlimited teamwork opportunities. Make assignments together with other students, other study programs, other campuses, and even other countries. Meanwhile, being in communication science department, students can exchange opinions with lecturers without being awkward.

This can be provided, such as by providing video recommendations, YouTube channels, podcasts, and so on. For him, said Herman, lecturers and students are colleagues. Not God and his servant. Herman also shared alternative sources to get E-books and documentary films as a medium for student learning. This can become student capital in navigating synchronous and asynchronous learning.

Herman said that this class of 2020 was the first strong student generation to attend lectures with a full online system. “This is the demand of the times, be sure there will be a lesson,” said Herman encouragingly.

Nothing Will Work Unless You Do,” Herman wrote on his screen, quoting the wise words of anAfro American writer, Maya Angelou. This quote was made in order to motivate Communication Science of UII students from batch 2020. After that, the event ended with questions and answers and distributing interesting merchandise for the best questioners. Of course, don’t forget to take a photo together to commemorate the moment of Welcoming Day, year 2020.

The next International Program of Communication’s Teatime

Talking about UII Learning Center Facilities that IPC Members Can Access

How is the experience of Communication IP class different from the regular class? What was the most memorable experience? Those are the questions that often arise. Responding to that question, Rasya and Daffa shared their experiences during lectures at UII IP communication. During the welcoming day last year, they met a number of study program staff, seniors, lecturers and foreign students.

Presentations and talks at the welcoming day were given in English. This activity is designed so that students can face the international environment. According to Daffa, at that time the lecturers explained what IPC was, as well as interesting little games. This atmosphere creates a strong relationship between them and the entire UII Communication academic community.

This is the conversation that surfaced in the talk show Teatime episode 10. On this occasion, Teatime took place as usual using live broadcasts via Instagram social media. On September 5, 2020, the theme raised was “Take a Peek at The Orientation Days with IPC Student 2019”. M. Daffa Athallariq from IP Communication (IPC) UII (Indonesian Islamic University), class 2019 guided by Rasya, class 2019 talked about the excitement of studying at UII IP Communications as it emerged at the beginning.

Besides the welcoming atmosphere during the welcoming day, the small class capacity also makes students focus more on lecture material. This also creates a culture that is close to lecturers, employees or fellow students. “We were close to lecturers, staff, and seniors even before starting to study at IPC,” said Daffa.

In addition, IPC students always open minded to make friends with non-IP communication students or students of other majors. The reason is of course because the scope of their activities is similar. Apart from the classrooms, the language of instruction is English and different perspectives. The perspective on the material must be seen with an international or global perspective. For example, there are subjects for basic writing, language improvement, and academic writing. Further information and details regarding IPC UII registration can be checked directly on Instagram @ ip.communication.uii. “You have to register quickly, because IP communication is very interesting,” said Rasya.

The interesting thing about being an International Program Student

In the first year, IP students will get an academic writing course with the APA Style reference. Do you have to be good at English at first? Certainly not. Through learning in IPC classes, students will learn about public speaking and basic language through practice. Like writing practice and public speaking. This will certainly help students. Every student has the opportunity to learn. They will learn the process of practicing English directly, said Daffa, “So that’s where learning at IPC feels very interesting!”

Another exciting thing, lecture facilities are also adequate. Complete equipment is available to support lecture practice and assignments. Lecturers have free time for students to ask questions about all things that are still confusing in class. Students can also help each other. With a global perspective learned in IP programs, there are many study opportunities around the world, as well as contacts around the world.

In addition, IPC also has courses that focus on video production. This course deals with film production which is in great demand lately. There are also P2A (Passage to Asean) programs, international seminars and other programs that provide scholarships. This unique experience can only be obtained at the IPC UII second node.

How to understand communication from a global perspective? Students can understand international phenomena by referring to international journals and references. Even though it was tough at first, at IPC they have a strong bond, so they often help each other when faced with various difficulties. Such as language difficulties, reading English journals, and other academic difficulties. “Lecturers are close to students, and there is a class agreement. That makes it easier for us at IPC,” continued Rasya.

The orientation period with the name “Serumpun” raises the theme of brotherhood. The mission of the committee is to make the introduction of this campus embraced like brothers without any seniority that still occurs in several campuses in Indonesia. Before starting the serumpun activity, the committee first opened the event. The opening event started by giving a speech for the new students. The Vice Dean of the FPSB also gave a very warm welcome to the new FPSB students before starting this campus orientation activity.

The Serumpun activities which were held on September 20th, 2020 through the Zoom Meeting application, were attended by all freshmen from the Faculty of Psychology and Socio-Cultural Sciences, including Communication Science students. The committee prepares for this activity very well and is ready to face the obstacles that will occur in the online group (online aspect) for the first time at FPSB.

The committee also anticipates this activity, namely by providing credit subsidies worth 50 thousand rupiah to new students to be used in this allied activity. The credit subsidy provided is expected to provide convenience online if you experience interference with wifi signals or limited quota.

According to the Vice  Dean of the FPSB UII, Dr. Phil. Emi Zulaifah, M.Sc, enrollment of new students has increased in all departments, especially those that seem to have increased, namely from the Department of International Relations, she said. So do not be surprised if this group is attended by hundreds of new students. She said, “For example, the department of psychology and communication science is relatively high, such as every year.”

FPSB student admission is very competitive because of the thousands of applicants, only 10 percent are accepted. Last year there were around 8000 prospective students and only around 830 were accepted who re-registered to become students at FPSB. Then now, the applicants exceed 9000 and this faculty is accepting around 984 new students.

UII has the goal of realizing students and its academic community as ulil albab people. This will later be a blessing for the surrounding. A number of hundreds of students who are accepted at the FPSB will undergo the process of becoming the ulil albab human being. The vice dean said, “because we have this mission, the religious program is structured in such a way that these students do undergo these activities intensively.”

For example, through taklim which must be followed 4 semesters, until graduation taklim will attend pre-KKN (mandatory community services) Islamic boarding schools, then there is an Islamic basic value orientation program and a an Islamic boarding school program in semester 1 which will later have material on religion, morals and leadership, she said . Ms. Emi continued her message, “we give the widest opportunity for students to develop in a good corridor. And also will build the benefit of the people and their nation. UII’s human concern should go beyond national boundaries because of Islam. Our student affairs have the view that every UII’s student has the right to develop and we facilitate that. ”

Tepat pada tanggal 23 september 2020 pukul 1 Siang, Program Studi Ilmu Komunikasi UII melakukan penyambutan mahasiswa baru. Vadhiya selaku Host serta Jiany selaku Co Host menemani percakapan via Zoom ini. Acara ini khususnya akan memperkenalkan mengenai apa itu Prodi Ilmu Komunikasi FPSB UII. Prodi Ilmu Komunikasi Gelar “Welcoming Day” daring Menyambut Mahasiswa Baru 2020 di saat Pandemi

Sekitar 250 Maba (Mahasiswa Baru) komunikasi mengikuti acara ini. Dosen, alumni, mahasiswa internasional di International Program (IP) Communication, Dekan, dan mahasiswa komunikasi umumnya turut serta mengikuti. Dibuka dengan bacaan surat Quran oleh Ibrahim, mahasiswa Ilmu Komunikasi 2019. Ada pula motivasi keagamaan dan pendidikan yang disampaikan oleh Dekan FPSB UII, Dr. H. Fuad Nashori, S.Psi., M.Si., M.Ag., Psikolog. Ia menjelaskan mengenai semangat kuliah dan pembekalan diri di masa depan serta membenahi diri sebagai mahasiswa UII.

Ketua Program Studi Ilmu Komunikasi UII, Puji Hariyanti juga memberi sambutan dan semangat untuk kuliah daring yang akan dihadapi maba ke depan. Selanjutnya, Kak Shorlihah (Alumni Komunikasi  UII, 2015) dan Kak Suwaibah (Mahasiswa IP Komunikasi 2019) berasal dari Thailand juga turut membagikan pengalamanya menjalani perkuliahan di UII. Selama berada di IPC, staff, dosen dan mahasiswa selalu membantu, katanya. “Kesulitan utama yang didapatkan masalah bahasa, meski begitu teman-teman membantu saya,” ucap Kak Shorlihah.

Setelah pembukaan dirasa cukup, dilanjutkan sesi Video. Membahas mengenai apa itu Prodi Ilmu Komunikasi. Menjelaskan mengenai komunikasi memiliki 4 bidang peminatan. Program dan Kurikulum yang ada di dalam komunikasi. Termasuk juga penegnalan kegiatan riset dan pengabdian masyarakat. Perkenalan dosen dan staff prodi komunikasi tak luput diperkenalkan lewat video perkenalan yang disiarkan lewat aplikasi zoom tersebut. Selanjutnya di lanjutkan acara Q&A (Questions and Answer).

Salah seorang maba bertanya tentang program P2A (Passage to Assean). Ida Nuraini menjelaskan P2A adalah program workshop dan studi budaya yang diselenggarakan di negara-negara ASEAN. P2A pertama misalnya, pada 2018, mahasiswa di beberapa kampus Asean, termasuk Komunikasi UII, melakukan perjalanan dan kompetisi fotografi di 3 negara ASEAN: Malaysia, Thailand, Kamboja. Program ini berusaha meningkatkan pemahaman lintas budaya tanpa batas.

Hal senada juga diungkapkan oleh Annisa Putri Jiany selaku alumni Ilmu Komunikasi 2015. Ia mendapatkan banyak pengalaman di 3 negara berbeda, serta mendapatkan relasi pertemanan yang sampai saat ini masih berlangsung. Pertanyaan-pertanyaan lain bermunculan. Misalnya komunitas apa yang ada di prodi komunikasi? Apakah itu akan mengganggu perkuliahan? Iven selaku alumni Ilmu Komunikasi angkatan 2016 menjelaskan mata kuliah wajib yang didapatkan juga berkaitan dengan komunitas. Oleh sebab itu, kegiatan di komunitas justru mendukung kegiatan perkuliahan. Komunitas-komunitas di Komunikasi UII dapat menambah relasi kita dan tidak mengganggu perkuliahan.  “Justru menambahkan keuntungan saat berada di dalam komunitas, karena kita bisa langsung mempraktikkan ilmu di kelas,” kata Iven Sumardiantoro.

Bagaimana perbedaan pengalaman kelas IP Komunikasi UII dengan kelas reguler? Apa pengalaman yang paling berkesan? Itulah pertanyaan-pertanyaan yang sering muncul. Merespon pertanyaan itu, Rasya dan Daffa berbagi pengalaman mereka selama kuliah di IP komunikasi UII. Saat welcoming day setahun lalu, mereka bertemu dengan sejumlah staf prodi, senior, dosen dan mahasiswa asing.

Presentasi dan pembicaraan saat welcoming day diberikan dalam Bahasa Inggris. Kegiatan ini dibuat agar mahasiswa dapat menghadapi lingkungan internasional. Menurut Daffa, saat itu para dosen menjelaskan apa itu IPC (international Program of Communication), serta permainan-permainan kecil yang menarik. Suasana ini membuat relasi yang kuat antara mereka dan seluruh sivitas akademika Komunikasi UII.

Inilah pembicaraan yang mengemuka di acara bincang-bincang Teatime episode ke 10. Pada kesempatan  kali ini, Teatime berlangsung seperti biasa pakai siaran langsung lewat media sosial Instagram. Pada 5 September 2020 ini, tema yang diangkat adalah “Obrolan Orientasi serta pengalaman Mahasiswa IPC 2019”. M. Daffa Athallariq dari IP Communication (IPC) UII (Universitas Islam Indonesia) angkatan 2019 dipandu Rasya, angkatan 2019 berbincang soal keseruan kuliah di IP Komunikasi UII seperti yang mengemuka di mula.

Selain suasana penyambutan saat welcoming day, kapasitas kelas yang kecil juga membuat mahasiswa lebih fokus pada materi perkuliahan. Ini juga menciptakan kultur yang akrab dengan dosen, karyawan ataupun sesama mahasiswa.”Kami dekat dengan dosen, staf, dan senior bahkan sebelum memulai pembelajaran di IPC,” kata Daffa.

Selain itu mahasiswa IPC tidak menutup diri berteman dengan mahasiswa komunikasi non IP ataupun mahasiswa jurusan lain. Sebabnya tentu karena ruang lingkup aktivitasnya juga serupa. Selain ruang kelasnya, bahasa pengantar dengan Bahasa Inggris dan perspektif juga berbeda. Cara pandang terhadap materi harus dilihat dengan kacamata internasional atau global. Misalnya ada materi perkuliahan basic writing, penyampaian Bahasa, dan academic writing. Informasi lanjutan dan detil mengenai pendaftaran IPC UII dapat cek langsung di Instagram @ip.communication.uii. “Kamu harus daftar cepat ya, karena komunikasi IP sangat menarik,” kata Rasya.

Menariknya menjadi Mahasiswa International Program

Pada tahun pertama, mahasiswa IP akan mendapatkan mata kuliah penulisan akademik dengan referensi APA Style. Apakah mulanya masuk menjadi mahasiswa IP harus pintar bahasa inggris? Tentu tidak. Melalui pembelajaran di kelas IPC, mahasiswa akan belajar tentang public speaking dan dasar berbahasa lewat praktik. Seperti praktik menulis dan public speaking. Ini tentu akan membantu mahasiswa. Setiap mahasiswa mempunyai kesempatan belajar. Mereka akan mempelajari proses berlatih Bahasa inggris secara langsung kata Daffa, “Jadi di situlah pembelajaran di IPC terasa sangat menarik!”

Hal seru lainnya, fasilitas perkuliahan juga memadai. Tersedia peralatan lengkap untuk menunjang praktik perkuliahan dan tugas. Dosen mempunyai waktu luang bagi mahasiswa untuk bertanya tentang segala hal yang masih membingungkan di kelas. Mahasiswa bisa juga saling membantu. Dengan perspektif global ang dipelajari di program IP, ada banyak kesempatan belajar di seluruh dunia, serta relasi di seluruh dunia.

Selain itu, IPC juga memiliki mata kuliah yang memfokuskan ke produksi video. Mata kuliah ini berkaitan dengan produksi film yang banyak diminati belakangan ini. Terdapat juga program P2A (Passage to Asean), seminar internasional dan program lain yang menyediakan beasiswa.  Pengalaman unik ini hanya bisa didapatkan di IPC UII simpul keduanya.

Bagaimana memahami komunikasi dengan perspektif global? Mahasiswa dapat memahami fenomena internasional dengan mengacu pada jurnal-jurnal dan rujukan internasional. Meski awalnya berat, di IPC mereka memiliki ikatan yang kuat sehingga mereka sering saling membantu ketika menghadapi kesulitan yang beragam. Seperti kesulitan berbahasa, membaca jurnal Bahasa inggris, serta kesulitan akademik lainnya. “Dosen dekat denga mahasiswa, serta ada kesepakatan kelas. Itu memudahkan kami di IPC,” sambung Rasya.

Masa orientasi dengan nama “Serumpun” mengangkat tema persaudaraan. Misi panitia ingin membuat pengenalan kampus ini dirangkul seperti saudara tanpa adanya senioritas yang masih terjadi di beberapa kampus di Indonesia. Sebelum kegiatan serumpun dimulai, panitia terlebih dulu membuka acara dengan memberikan sambutan untuk mahasiswa baru dan tak ketinggalan juga Wakil Dekan dari FPSB memberikan sambutan yang sangat hangat untuk mahasiswa baru FPSB sebelum memulai kegiatan ospek serumpun ini berlangsung.

Kegiatan Serumpun yang dilaksanakan pada tanggal 20 September 2020 melalui aplikasi Zoom Meeting diikuti oleh seluruh mahasiswa baru dari Fakultas Psikologi dan ilmu Sosial Budaya, termasuk mahasiswa Komunikasi UII. Panitia mempersiapkan kegiatan ini dengan sangat baik dan siap dalam menghadapi halangan yang akan terjadi pada serumpun (ospek daring) online pertama kali di FPSB.

Panitia juga melakukan antisipasi pada kegiatan ini yaitu dengan memberikan subsidi pulsa senilai 50 ribu rupiah kepada para mahasiswa baru untuk dimanfaatkan dalam kegiatan serumpun ini. Subsidi pulsa yang diberikan diharapkan dapat memberi kemudahan dalam serumpun daring jika mengalami gangguan pada sinyal wifi atau kuota yang terbatas.

Menurut Wakil Dekan FPSB UII, Dr. Phil. Emi Zulaifah, M.Sc, pendaftaran mahasiswa baru mengalami kenaikan di semua program studi, terutama yang tampak melonjak yaitu dari jurusan Hubungan Internasional katanya. Maka tak heran bila serumpun kali ini diikuti oleh ratusan mahasiswa baru. Ia mengatakan, “kalau  seperti jurusan psikologi dan Ilmu Komunikasi relatif stabil tinggi seperti dari tahun ke tahun.” Penerimaan mahasiswa FPSB  sangat kompetitif karena dari ribuan pendaftar, yang diterima hanya 10 persen. Pada tahun lalu ada sekitar  8000 calon mahasiswa dan yang diterima hanya sekitar 830-an yang daftar ulang untuk menjadi mahasiswa pada FPSB. Lalu sekarang, pendaftar melampaui 9000 dan fakultas ini menerima sekitar 984 mahasiswa baru.

UII memiliki cita- cita mewujudkan mahasiswa dan civitas akademiknya sebagai insan ulil albab. Ini nantinya akan menjadi rahmat bagi sekitarnya. Sejumlah ratusan mahasiswa yang diterima di FPSB ini akan menjalani proses menjadi insan ulil albab tersebut. Wakil dekan mengatakan, “karena kita memiliki misi seperti itu maka program keagamaan disusun sedemikian rupa sehingga mahasiswa ini memang menjalani kegiatan tersebut secara intensif.”

Misalnya antara lain melalaui taklim yang wajib diikuti 4 semester, hingga lulus taklim nanti akan mengikuti pesantren pra-KKN, lalu ada program orientasi nilai dasar islam dan program pesantren sesi 1 di semester 1 yang nanti ada materi tentang agama, akhlak, dan kepemimpinan, katanya. Ibu Emi melanjutkan pesannya, “kita berikan kesempatan seluasnya pada mahasiswa agar berkembang dalam koridor yang baik dan akan membangun kemaslahatan bagi umat dan bangsanya. Kepedulian insan dari UII seharusnya melampui batas-batas negara karena keislaman. Kemahasiswaan kita memiliki pandangan setiap mahasiswa uii memiliki hak untuk berkembang dan kita memfasilitasi itu.”

In this digital era, cyberspace is increasingly crowded and massive. There is a lot of fake news circulating and it is becoming increasingly difficult to figure out which facts and opinions are. Therefore, to avoid fake news and unclear truth, students are required to think critically in finding facts. If students do not have a critical nature, it can become a time bomb and dangerous for their future.

Teatime 11th episode, entitled the theme “Bridging program” in the UII International Program Communication provided those skills to face the digital era and campus environment. This discussion presented an internal lecturer from IP Communication (IPC) UII, Mr. Ginanjar Gailea. This discussion on September 11, 2020, is very interesting because in this discussion the host will present a theme that is characteristic of the IPC program. 

This discussion program was broadcast via IPC’s Live Instagram (@ ip.communication.uii). Nadira Muthia Subhari as the host of IPC accompanied the discussion and shared information related to the Bridging Program with IPC Communication Science lecturer Mr. Ginanjar Gailea. The discussion provides an overview especially for IPC new students.

So the Department of Communication of UII opens special courses that are different from the regular communication science program called “Bridging Program”. In the bridging program, students will discuss with friends and lecturers how to become a student who can think critically. Critical thinking is a skill that helps students to distinguish between facts, opinions, and hoaxes. The Bridging Program is a special facility provided to all UII international student programs of Communication Science. This facility assists international students in preparing them to adapt to the University learning environment and assists in other subjects.

Bridging classes also try to change the student’s perspective. Usually when they are in high school, students are guided step by step in detail, now when they enter the university environment, even the lecturers only provide guidance and the rest is provided by discussions and study independently. The campus world allows lecturers to act as a bridge of knowledge, not to be central knowledge like the high school period. This paradigm must be understood by new students at IPC.

“I will encourage students to enjoy my classes. I realize that every student has a different level of intellectual capacity but that is not the main measure in my class. I want my students to be proactive and confident,” said Ginanjar Gailea.

Bridging programs can also hone the skills (Skills) of a student to be creative and critical and have excellent intuition. If students have these traits it will make students who innovate and ready to face the outside world. Mr. Ginanjar said do not hesitate if there are students who would like to consult about the IP program. “Do not build the scary side of classroom lectures, class was made fun anyway,” said Ginanjar.

What skills learned together in the bridging program? “There are various things,” said Ginanjar. “For example, we will learn together about how to become independent learners, academic writing, develop critical thinking skills, and so on,” he said. These skills will be very useful if they are well understood. According to him, it is always practiced.

He as an IP lecturer will accept students well to get better and ready to face the international world. Mr. Ginanjar hopes that when the pandemic is over, IPC communication science students are ready to come out without hesitation in facing all conditions.
