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.

Serumpun on September 20, 2020 has ended. The new students of the UII Communication Science Department gathered and were welcomed by the Head of the UII Department of Communication Science and the UII Communication staff. When gathering like this, new students from the Department of Communication Science can get to know each other. The hope is that they will become close with their friends, lecturers and staff. Joy is reflected in the faces of new students who are very interested in Communication Science. They feel proud to have entered the UII Department of Communication.

This picture was seen in the online meeting of the orientation period of the FPSB UII Serumpun at the department introduction session. In this session, new students were introduced to several communities in the Communication Science department by the Secretary General of Himakom UII (Communication Science Student Association), M. Diast. He explained several internal communities in this department and what they will get by participating in the activities in it.

After the Secretary General from Himakom gave his explanation and opinion about the various internal organizations, then the staff representative turned to speak. Staff from Communication Science gave an opinion to explain what facilities were obtained after new students entered the Communication Science department. The facilities provided by the UII Department of Communication Science include the Nadim PSDMA (Center for Alternative Media Studies and Documentation), which has a collection of research from alumni, lecturers and students as well as a collection of various alternative research. There is also a laboratory that can be used when students need media production tools or supporting equipment for later practicum lectures.

The Head of UII Department of Communication Science, Puji Hariyanti, also gave a speech to the new students. Puji said that from now on students must be enthusiastic about going through online courses in the future. “Congratulations to new students and always enthusiastic in carrying out lectures later,” she said. She also introduced the three finger greeting typical of the Communication Department in Indonesia. All students and participants of the Zoom meeting were busy taking pictures together showing the three-finger greeting symbol of the communication greeting.

After a warm welcome by the Head of Communication Science, then she gave the students the opportunity to get acquainted. During the introductory period, it turned out that communication science students came from various regions. There are those from Aceh, some from Papua, Temanggung, and of course also Yogyakarta. This makes Puji Hariyanti feel amazed that the enthusiasm for following the orientation period and the introduction of communication science is still being followed despite the difficulty of signals and connections from long distances. In fact, this shows that the enthusiasm of new students is very high and quite interactive.

Music always accompanies our daily activities. Music has also existed since time immemorial. For the sake of study studies in Indonesia, this article will be shortened from the colonial and pre-independence era.

In a history talk held by the Amir Effendi Siregar (AES) Forum, Idham Resmadi, a Creative Industry Lecturer from Telkom University, shared the history of music studies into 4 phases of periodization. “Starting from the colonial and pre-independence era, paca independence, the music industry era and post-reformation,” said Idhar on September 19, 2020.

At the event held by PSDMA Nadim Communications UII, Idhar said that the first phase, namely in the colonial period appeared on a radio station namely Radio NIROM, where the Dutch always enjoyed music every day. Then came soeara NIROM (NIROM voice) in the form of a leaflet. The contents are the program schedule on the radio.

Over time there was struggle and cultural influences began to develop. “For example, between fans of traditional keroncong and keroncong which is somewhat westernized. The term will develop, the arena of cultural contestation, there is the term keroncong gado-gado (Mixed Keroncong) because there is an assumption that western influence has cultural influences and negative values,” explained Idhar.

The second phase is post-independence. In this era, music has not entered the era of commercialization, and there is still a struggle for influence between East and West. The aura of fighting for discourse on cultural values ​​is still strong, said Idhar. But in print media like Diskorina, debate and criticism are no longer as harsh as before. And they tend to contain light information like astrology, humorous stories, crossword puzzles, etc. “Back then, Western culture was easier for teenagers to accept.”

In the 65th century, music became a political propaganda tool for the New Order. In the past, ABRI (Kostrad) used music, even through musical performances. “Even the cultural strategy is for soldiers to have their own band,” he added.

After that, there was a struggle for the discourse “Kampungan vs Gaul” between fans of the music “Dangdut vs Rock” which was quite busy. This kind of opinion was brought by Aktuil magazine. Also in the magazine, fashion trends are also easily accepted and adapted by the Indonesian people.

In the 1970s-1980s music developed. And this year, music entered the world of industry. There are also many tabloids and music magazines that support the music industry from an economic perspective. The magazine is not far from entertainment, lifestyle, or gossip. “There is a symbiosis of mutualism between music and media. The media supports the promotion of music, and music becomes a commodity.”

 

Welcoming Day Komunikasi UII:

Pada era digital ini, situasi dunia maya semakin crowded. Banyak persebaran berita palsu dan makin lama semakin sulit untuk mencari mana fakta dan opini. Maka dari itu untuk menghindari dari berita palsu dan tidak jelas kebenarannya, mahasiswa diharuskan untuk berfikir kritis dalam mencari fakta suatu informasi. Jika mahasiswa tidak memiliki sifat kritis bisa menjadi bom waktu dan berbahaya pada masa depan mereka.

Teatime episode 11 kali ini  berusaha menjawab itu. Kali ini mengangkat tema tentang “Bridging program” di International Program Komunikasi UII.  Pada diskusi ini menghadirkan dosen internal dari IP Communication (IPC) UII. Diskusi pada 11 September 2020 ini, sangat menarik karena pada diskusi ini tuan rumah akan membawakan tema yang menjadi ciri khas dari program IPC.

Acara diskusi ini disiarkan lewat Live Instagram IPC (@ip.communication.uii). Nadira Muthia Subhari selaku tuan rumah dari IPC mendampingi diskusi dan berbagi tentang informasi terkait dengan Bridging Program bersama dosen Ilmu Komunikasi IPC Mr. Ginanjar Gailea. Diskusi memberikan gambaran khususnya bagi mahasiswa baru IPC.

Maka jurusan Ilmu Komunikasi membuka mata kuliah khusus yang berbeda dengan program ilmu komunikasi regular bernama “Bridging Program”. Pada bridging program mahasiswa akan berdiskusi bersama teman dan dosen bagaimana cara menjadi seoarang mahasiswa yang dapat berfikir kritis,

Berfikir kritis merupakan keterampilan yang membantu mahasiswa untuk membedakan mana yang fakta, opini, dan hoax. Bridging Program adalah fasilitas khusus yang diberikan kepada semua program mahasiswa internasional UII. Fasilitas ini membantu mahasiswa internasional dalam mempersiapkan mereka beradaptasi di lingkungan pembelajaran Universitas dan membantu dalam mata kuliah lain.

Kelas Bridging juga berusaha mengubah cara pandang mahasiswa. Biasanya ketika masih di SMA, pelajar dipandu langkah demi langkah dengan detil, kini ketika masuk lingkungan universitas, bahkan dosen hanya memberikan panduan dan sisanya diskusi dan belajar mandiri. Dunia kampus memungkinkan dosen sebagai jembatan ilmu, bukan menjadi sentral layaknya jaman SMA. Paradigma ini yang harus dipahami oleh mahasiswa baru di IPC.

“Saya akan mendorong mahasiswa untuk menikmati kelas saya. Saya menyadari bahwa setiap mahasiswa memiliki tingkat kapasitas intelektual yang berbeda tetapi itu bukan ukuran utama di kelas saya. Saya ingin dari siswa saya adalah menjadi proaktif dan percaya diri,” kata Ginanjar Gailea.

Bridging program juga dapat mengasah keterampilan (Skill) seorang mahasiswa untuk menjadi kreatif dan kritis serta memiliki intuisi yang sangat baik, Jika mahasiswa memiliki sifat tersebut nantinya akan menjadikan mahasiswa yang berinovasi dan siap menghadapi dunia luar. Mr. Ginanjar mengatakan tidak ragu-ragu jika ada mahasiswa IP yang ingin konsultasi tentang programnya. “Tak usah membangun sisi menakutkan dari kelas kuliah, kelas saya buat menyenangkan kok,” sambung Ginanjar.

Apa saja keterampilan yang dipelajari bersama dalam bridging program? “ada macam-macam,” kata Ginanjar. “Misalanya kita akan belajar bersama tentang bagaimana menjadi pembelajar mandiri, academic writing, mengembangkan kemampuan berpikir kritis, dan lainnya,” katanya. Keterampilan ini akan sangat berguna jika ia dipahami dengan baik dan selalu dipraktikkan menurutnya.

Ia selaku dosen IP akan menerima dengan baik agar mahasiswa tersebut dapat menjadi lebih baik dan siap dengan matang menghadapi dunia internasional. Mr. Ginanjar berharap adalah ketika pandemi selesai, mahasiswa ilmu komunikasi IPC siap untuk keluar tanpa ragu dalam menghadapi segala kondisi.

Musik selalu menemani aktifitas sehari-hari kita. Musik juga hadir sejak jaman dahulu. Demi kepentingan kajian studi di Indonesia, maka tulisan ini akan diperpendek mulai jaman kolonial dan pra kemerdekaan.

Dalam bincang sejarah yang diadakan Forum Amir Effendi Siregar (AES), Idham Resmadi, Dosen Industri Kreatif dari Telkom University, membagi sejarah kajian musik dalam 4 fase periodesasi. “Dimulai dari jaman kolonial dan pra kemerdekaan, paca kemerdekaan, masa industri musik dan pasca reformasi,” kata Idhar pada 19 September 2020.

Pada acara yang diadakan oleh PSDMA Nadim Komunikasi UII, ini Idhar mengatakan bahwa fase pertama yaitu di masa kolonial muncul Radio NIROM, dimana penjajah Belanda sehari hari selalu menikmati musik. Lalu muncul juga soeara NIROM yang berbentuk leaflet. Isinya adalah susunan acara di radio tersebut.

Lama-lama terjadi perebutan dan pengaruh budaya mulai berkembang. “Misalnya antara penggemar keroncong tradisional dengan keroncong yang agak kebarat-baratan. Bakal berkembang istilah, arena kontestasi budaya, ada istilah keroncong gado-gado karena ada anggapan pengaruh barat itu ada pengaruh kebudayaan dan nilai-nilai negatif,” jelas Idhar.

Fase kedua adalah pascakemerdekaan. Di jaman ini musik belum memasuki era komersialisasi, dan masih terjadi perebutan pengaruh antara Timur dan Barat. Aura perebutan wacana nilai budayanya masih kuat, kata Idhar. Tapi di media cetak seperti Diskorina, perdebatan dan kritik tak lagi keras seperti sebelumnya. Dan cenderung berisi informasi ringan seperti astrologi, cerita humor, teka teki silang, dll. “Saat itu, budaya Barat lebih mudah diterima oleh remaja.”

Di tahun sekitar 65an, musik menjadi alat propaganda politik orde Baru. Dulu musik dipakai oleh ABRI (kostrad), bahkan juga melalui pertunjukan musik. “Bahkan strategi budayanya itu tentara sampai punya grup band sendiri,” imbuhnya.

Setelah itu ada perebutan wacana “Kampungan vs Gaul” antara penggemar musik “Dangdut vs Rock” yang cukup ramai. Opini seperti ini dibawa oleh majalah Aktuil. Di majalah itu juga, trend busana juga mudah ditetima dan diadaptasi oleh masyarakat Indonesia.

Di tahun 1970an-1980an musik berkembang. Dan di tahun tahun ini musik memasuki dunia industri. Banyak juga berkembang tabloid dan majalah musik yang isinya menunjang industri musik dari aspek ekonomi. Majalah itu isinya tak jauh dari hiburan, gaya hidup, atau Gosip. “Terjadilah simbiosis mutualisme antara musik dan media. Media menjadi penunjang promosi musik, dan musik menjadi komoditas.”

IP Programs During the Pandemic: Keeping Up with Strict Health Protocols. The Covid-19 pandemic has affected many activities, especially teaching activities in schools and colleges of higher education. The Universitas Islam Indonesia (UII) is no exception, which has set new rules for activities during the pandemic period. One example is the UII International Program (IP). Activities here comply with the rules by complying with the Rector’s Circular and government protocols during the pandemic.

IP UII has one of the excellent programs related to global mobility or international mobility. Through interviews with the Directorate of Partnerships / International Affairs Office (DK / KUI), Dian Utami, many programs of global mobility are  still possible to be implemented online. For example Summer Programs, Internships, Lecture Series, Web Seminars, Student Exchange, and Double Degree. Bridging Program in the form of the development of skills such as academic and learning skills training is also implemented in the form of online lectures. The form can be asynchronous or synchronous according to the Circular of the Rector of UII.

 

Some were postponed, some changes from offline to online

In the Communication Science Department, especially the International Program of Communication (IPC), activities related to global mobility such as the annual Passage to Asean (P2A) program and Student Exchange had to be postponed. Even though they had received offers to implement the P2A program virtually, the IPC still chose to postpone the P2A program. The delay is carried out indefinitely.

“We still hope that there will be an opportunity to get hands-on experience in the P2A program. By going directly abroad. So, currently we can only provide tell to students regarding the postponement of several programs,” said Ida Nuraini Dewi KN, as the IPC secretary.

Various interesting programs with international insight still continue, said this specialist lecturer in journalism and media studies. IPC programs implemented during the pandemic, among others is International Webinar held in May and Career Webinar held in August. There are also Teatime’s regular Talk Show and  Annual Workshop with the theme The Future of Globalization which was held last July.

The Annual Workshop invited Assoc. Prof. Dr. Huey Rong Chen from the Graduate School of Journalism, Chinese Culture University, Taiwan. Meanwhile, the Teatime Talk Show invited Zaki Habibi, a PhD candidate from Lund University, Sweden.

If usually the Annual Workshop is held offline and is open to IPC students and the public, then during the pandemic period the program must be transferred to online. Ida said, in general, several programs such as seminars would still be held even though they were online. Collaboration and research requiring face-to-face meetings and overseas trips where possible will be carried out online.

International Programs in Other Departments / Major

Similar conditions also occur in the International Relations Department. Activities related to global mobility cannot be carried out during the pandemic period. Karina Utami Dewi, as the Secretary of the International Program (IP) of International Relations (IR) Department confirmed this.

Even so, several programs that have been planned and will be implemented in the odd semester of 2020/2021. For example a visiting professor from NUS (National University of Singapore) who will teach in IP for 1 semester. Other programs include implementing IELTS simulations for all IP students and providing mentor academic facilities. Academic mentors are to assist IP students in implementing online learning.

During the pandemic period, the programs that can be implemented in the IP of IR Department vary. For example the Bridging Program and Inspiring Lecture with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. There are also several guest lectures from experts in various subjects in IP. These programs are carried out as usual. The only difference is the form of implementation which is done online.

Even so, the implementation of the program ran smoothly and in general IP students were able to participate well. “Of course there are technical barriers such as connections. This is because most of the IP students return to their hometown. Not all of them have stable internet connections there,” said Karina when interviewed via email.

UII Internationalization Globally 

Dian said that this is understandable during the pandemic period that many programs cannot be implemented as usual. Programs that cannot be implemented can be transferred to other programs. In essence, other activities have benefits and outcomes that support achieving UII Strategic Plan. Including increasing the internationalization of UII globally.

DK / KUI provides facilities in the form of services related to the initiation of new partners proposed by the Department or Faculty. Partners come from both industry, government, academia, and society. In addition, DK / KUI also continues to play a role in delivering information by publishing international activities within UII. Whether it’s mobility activities for lecturers, students, and students.
