Teatime #3: Critical Thinking is The Core of International Mindset

Reading Time: 3 minutes

On 10th July, 2020, Zaki Habibi was become the speaker. He said the Core of discussion that in the Teatime #3: Critical Thinking is The Core of International Mindset. He was the keyperson speaker of Teatime Talkshow about how the international mindset is important for the academic experiment. Student should learn and train their mindset to adapt the global academic world. In this third Teatime, the committee choose the title “Crash Landing on The Connected World”. Ida Nuraini Dewi KN, as the host, trying to interview Habibi what is the benefit of having an international mindset.

On that evening, Habibi aired his talks live from Lund, Sweden, and Ida the host from Jogja. This is what Habibi said with connected world. We can still connect, talk, discuss, and ‘meet’ each other because we are already connected with technology. Therefore, we can make a serious collaboration and get an international mindset easily than before.

Hence, because the importance by having this international mindset, student of higher institution like university or college is good to enrich it. Enrich their mindset and thinking with this international mindset. By knowing the international mindset, we can solve the global problem, even help others, and also finding the best way to face everyday live problem.

Critical Thinking is The Core of International Mindset

Then, What International Mindset Is?

Zaki said, “Critical Thinking is The Core of International Mindset.”

Ida, who also the lecturer specialist of journalism and media studies, ask him: what do you mean to think critically is the key of international mindset?

Based on Habibi’s thought, that study in higher education is also about trying to have a critical understanding about everything. “What you learn it is actually about this,” Habibi said. Habibi tell us that there are many issues that the world face now. “Big issues like food scarcity, climate change, racism and so on, even in positive way, the new development of cities, the new development of economy and so on, if we have have this kind of attitude of critical understanding,” Habibi answered.

It is actually put us, as a student in the higher education institution, “to see all what happen outside as something that its not taken for granted firstly,” Habibi continued. Secondly, he said,  that there would be something has historical context, it has a social, economical, and political context, beyond it. “and also its not always that i mean something happen in one place you can not just move back in other place and look it will be the same,” said he, who also an PhD candidate at Lund University, Sweden.

What Habibi want to say is as a student, it is important to undestand the context of something or problem. So you can, “find the substance, why this solution worked here, why this solution solve this particular problem,” Habibi said.

People is Different, So Understand the Difference

Habibi also tell us the story that he get before when he go overseas at Edith Cowan University at Perth, Australia. He said, when he get his master at Australia, he also get the different story.

“People is different, by understanding the difference, that we could understanding the context, understand why they behave like that. How we should behave, and how we should react back,” said he recalled the story  then.

Although, this international mindset, Habibi said, is not necessary have to be build in formal international institution. For example, “You can studying in any program, anywhere, any discipline, but this international mindset is getting more important thing with the current situation,” said he.

Ida and Habibi agreed that international mindset is not just about masterly the language. “It is not if you could understand the English well. If you could express an English language very well as close as native speaker, that is not enough,” said Habibi. Habibi, who also a lecturer of Visual Culture specialized, at Communication Science Department of Universitas Islam Indonesia, said mastering the language is not enough.

Habibi emphasize that International mindset is more about the way we understand the difference. “This mindset is the way how we understand the possibility to understand that people have their own problem.” said he. “The definition of International mindset is mastering the understanding,” Habibi said,“And the way our attitude to react to global problem, as our problem now or future,” He continued.

Teatime #3: Berpikir Kritis adalah Inti dari Pola Pikir Internasional

Reading Time: 3 minutes

Pada 10 Juli 2020, Zaki Habibi menjadi pembicara. Dia mengatakan Inti dari diskusi bahwa dalam Teatime # 3: Berpikir Kritis adalah Inti dari Pola Pikir Internasional. Dia adalah pembicara utama bincang-bincang Teatime tentang bagaimana pola pikir internasional penting bagi pengalaman akademik.

Mahasiswa harus belajar dan melatih pola pikir mereka untuk beradaptasi dengan dunia akademik global. Dalam acara Teatime ketiga ini, panitia memilih judul “Crash Landing on The Connected World – What Can We Benefit From Having International Mindset “. Ida Nuraini Dewi KN, sebagai tuan rumah, mencoba mewawancarai Zaki apa manfaat memiliki pola pikir internasional.

Pada malam itu, Zaki menyiarkan pembicaraannya langsung dari Lund, Swedia, dan Ida pembawa acara dari Jogja. Penontonnya sudah lebih dari 100 pemirsa. Inilah yang dikatakan Zaki dengan dunia yang terhubung. Kita masih bisa terhubung, berbicara, berdiskusi, dan ‘bertemu’ satu sama lain karena kita sudah terhubung dengan teknologi. Oleh karena itu, kita dapat membuat kolaborasi kreatif dan mendapatkan pola pikir internasional dengan mudah daripada sebelumnya.

Oleh karena itu, karena pentingnya memiliki pola pikir internasional ini, mahasiswa dari perguruan tinggi seperti universitas atau sekoalh tinggi sebaiknya memperkaya itu. Perkaya pola pikir dan berpikir dengan pola pikir internasional. Dengan mengetahui pola pikir internasional, kita dapat memecahkan masalah global, bahkan membantu orang lain, dan juga menemukan cara terbaik untuk menghadapi masalah hidup sehari-hari.

Berpikir Kritis adalah Inti dari Pola Pikir Internasional

Lalu, Apa Pola Pikir Internasional itu?

Zaki berkata, “Berpikir Kritis adalah Inti dari Pola Pikir Internasional.”

Ida, yang juga dosen spesialis jurnalisme dan studi media Komunikasi UII, bertanya kepadanya: apa yang anda maksud dengan berpikir kritis adalah kunci dari pola pikir internasional?

Berdasarkan pemikiran Zaki,  studi di pendidikan tinggi juga tentang mencoba untuk memiliki pemahaman kritis tentang segalanya. “Apa yang kamu pelajari sebenarnya tentang ini,” kata Habibi. Habibi memberi tahu kita bahwa ada banyak masalah yang dihadapi dunia sekarang. “Masalah besar seperti kelangkaan pangan, perubahan iklim, rasisme dan sebagainya, bahkan dalam cara-cara positif, perkembangan baru kota-kota, perkembangan ekonomi baru dan sebagainya, jika kita memiliki sikap pemahaman kritis seperti ini,” jawab Habibi.

Itu sebenarnya menempatkan kita, sebagai mahasiswa di lembaga pendidikan tinggi, “untuk melihat semua yang terjadi di luar sebagai sesuatu yang tidak diterima begitu saja,” lanjut Zaki. Kedua, katanya, bahwa akan ada sesuatu yang memiliki konteks sejarah, konteks sosial, ekonomi, dan politik, dan lainnya. “Dan itu tidak selalu berarti sesuatu terjadi di satu tempatdan tidak terjadi di tempat lain, bisa saja probelm yang saa terjadi di tempat lain,” kata dia, yang juga kandidat PhD di Lund University, Swedia.

Apa yang ingin dikatakan Zaki adalah, sebagai seorang Mahasiswa, penting untuk memahami konteks sesuatu atau masalah. Jadi Anda dapat, “menemukan poinnya, mengapa solusi ini bekerja di sini, mengapa solusi ini menyelesaikan masalah tertentu ini,” kata Habibi.

Setiap Orang Berbeda, Jadi Pahami Perbedaannya

Habibi juga menceritakan kisahnya yang dia dapatkan sebelumnya ketika dia pergi ke luar negeri di Universitas Edith Cowan di Perth, Australia. Dia mengatakan, ketika dia mendapatkan gelar master di Australia, dia juga mendapat cerita yang berbeda.

“Orang-orang berbeda, dengan memahami perbedaannya,  kita dapat memahami konteksnya, memahami mengapa mereka berperilaku seperti itu. Bagaimana kita harus bersikap, dan bagaimana kita harus bereaksi kembali,” katanya mengenang.

Meskipun, pola pikir internasional ini, kata Habibi, tidak perlu harus dibangun di lembaga-lembaga internasional formal. Misalnya, “Kamu dapat belajar di program apa saja, di mana saja, disiplin apa pun, tetapi pola pikir internasional ini semakin penting dengan situasi saat ini,” katanya.

Ida dan Habibi sepakat bahwa pola pikir internasional bukan hanya tentang menguasai bahasa. “Ini bukan tentang kamu dapat memahami bahasa Inggris dengan baik. Jika kamu dapat mengekspresikan bahasa Inggris dengan sangat baik seperti halnya penutur asli, itu tidak cukup,” kata Zaki. Zaki, yang juga seorang dosen Spesialis Komunikasi Budaya Visual, di Departemen Ilmu Komunikasi Universitas Islam Indonesia, mengatakan menguasai bahasa tidak cukup.

Zaki menekankan bahwa pola pikir Internasional lebih pada cara kita memahami perbedaan. “Pola pikir ini adalah cara kita memahami kemungkinan untuk memahami bahwa orang memiliki masalah mereka sendiri.” kata dia. “Definisi pola pikir internasional adalah menguasai pemahaman,” kata Habibi, “Dan cara kita bereaksi terhadap masalah global, seperti masalah kita sekarang atau di masa depan,” lanjutnya.

Amir Effendi Siregar Forum # 2: Soeharto Regime, Developmentalism, and Communication Science Reference Books 1970-1980s (3)

Reading Time: 4 minutes

Previous Writing Amir Effendi Siregar Forum # 2: Soeharto’s Regime Influences Indonesian Communication Science Curriculum and Research (2) Soeharto’s Regime Development of communication science

Alwi then began to become part of the authority of publicist knowledge and began to participate in discourse to change ‘publicist science’ to ‘communication science’. “The results of his studies in America, of course there is friction, influence, and all kinds,” he said.

Tito, who also completed his masters in the UGM Culture and Media Studies Department, said that his research based on empirical experience might become multi methodological. “From my empirical observations yesterday, this might have to be a survey for communication scholar who have experienced teaching and lectures in 1980-1990,” he explained to strengthen the argument.

There is something unique, if not exactly strange, according to Tito. Tito’s tracking, if indeed the paradigm of communication science shifted from continental Europe to the Anglo-Saxon, then the study books by Laswell, Lazarfeld, Hovland, and American scientists were truly studied in detail, intensive, and seriously.

“If I look at it from the curriculum and reading books and others, the 1980-1990 period is not a lot of books that become a reference. Usually we, the communication scholars, will learn the science of communication from translation books, summary books, introductory books whose contents do quote Lazarfeld “It could also quote Laswell, Hovland, and so on. But none of the original references,” said Tito in surprise.

This is what later became a note of Professor Alwi Dahlan’s argument in his writings in 1980. Daniel Dhakidae in 1980 also said that indeed many Indonesian social science scholars who received scholarships were sent to America. “They go to school or just visit, which ultimately makes them build imagination about how the social science discourse should actually be developed,” said Tito. Then from there the possibility of an expansion of the ‘communication science’ discourse.

After the 1965 incident, Suharto rose to power. The Ministry of Information in turn became a weapon to strengthen its government. “In his language Hill, as a warhead for banning press,” said Tito referring to Australian academics, David T. Hill, who has long been researching the press and media in Indonesia.

Tito’s presentation explained that the Information Department was based on Sukiman’s research notes, which examined the history of information science in Indonesia, “he said that the information department was mainly absorbed by graduates of communication science. Mass media employees or journalists were also drawn from communication science graduates,” Tito said reading the screen his presentation.

Tito’s tracking explained, in the 1970s, communication science graduates at the Faculty of Social and Political Sciences in Indonesia were at that time prepared to become employees in the Ministry of Information. “Of course not all of it, but the focus of learning the skills honed by his scientific teaching departs from there, meeting the needs of the information department.”

Then where are the rest who don’t work at the Ministry of Information?

Not Only State Servants, Journalists Are Also Influenced By Information Science

Tito revealed, those who did not enter the Information Department, usually entered into journalists or journalists. Interestingly, continued Tito, the values ​​that were instilled in teaching communication majors were also embedded in these journalists. Tito found that the curriculum majoring in Communication Studies was also adjusted to the Department of Information. Tito’s emphasis was that the values ​​of this ‘information science’ also ultimately influenced the knowledge of journalists in the 1970s. “Especially those from lighting science,” said Tito.

“Imagine the Information Department taking part in influencing the information science curriculum, whereas at that time the Information Department was trying to control, especially after the 1974 Malari incident,” Tito explained.

In mid 1974, the Government and the Ministry of Information wanted to discipline the mass media and students. But at that time the department also had control over the information science curriculum on campuses in which journalists would also be candidates. They eventually became part of the journalism discourse at the time. “The information department made communication science an epistemic authority to control journalism even at the time there was the term development communication. There was even development journalism at the time,” Tito said, explaining the development and developmentism communication discourse trends that were rampant and intensified by the Suharto government in the 1970s .

“This is interesting because in 1974 it was a moment when the science of publicism tried to be shifted into the science of communication,” Tito added. At that time, he said, Dean of the Faculty of Publications Astrid Susanto, who eventually moved to UI, offered to replace the publicist’s image as a communication science.” He said at one of the workshops in Bandung. The 1974 moment was an important milestone, because, according to Tito, the date refers to the end of the five-year plan of the Republic of Indonesia (Pelita 1) approximately 1969-1974. During that time, Prof. Astrid who served as Head of the Information, Science Bureau , and Culture of BAPPENAS, offering scholarly scholarly publicities to transform publicist science into communication science.

“This makes a big question mark. My initial argument, if we look at the plot, the transition from publicist science to communication science is part of the development of the new order. So it is not about the epistemic shock of American communication science, not that,” said Tito.

According to TIto’s initial findings, what happened was not a shift in the German publicist school to America. He alleged that there was momentum when Prof. Astrid introduces what is called development communication. “For sociology, there is development sociology. For anthropology, there is development anthropology,” Tito explained.

Tito’s search found several books by Prof. Astrid, who in every book, always found inserts or sub-chapters on development communication. and of course if your friends read his book Prof. Astrid, the definition of development here is community service. Devotion to the new order and everything related to it, “said Tito.

In addition, Tito also emphasized that, “the shift in publicistism to communication science is part of the govermentality undertaken by the state authorities to bring this publicist social science discourse closer to being a tool of state governmentality,” Tito said.

Forum Amir Effendi Siregar #2: Rezim Soeharto Memengaruhi Kurikulum dan Riset Ilmu Komunikasi Indonesia (2)

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Lanjutan dari Forum AES: Rezim Soeharto Memengaruhi Kurikulum dan Riset Ilmu Komunikasi Indonesia (1)

Kesempatan Justito Adiprasetio di serial ke 2 Forum Amir Effendi Siregar, mengungkap beragam pengaruh dalam diskursus Ilmu Komunikasi di Indonesia. Ia memaparkan ada pengaruh scholar Jerman, Amerika, dan orde Soeharto dalam Diskursus Ilmu Komunikasi di Indonesia.

“Jadi diskursus ‘penerangan’ seperti kita tahu kalau di Unpad dulu ada prodi manajemen komunikasi, dulunya ilmu penerangan. Dulunya juga di beberapa kampus punya jurusan di bawah ilmu komunikasi itu ilmu penerangan, bahkan ilmu publisistik dulunya di bawahnya ada ilmu penerangan,” kata Tito, panggilan akrab Justito.

Bahkan, lanjut Tito,  ilmu penerangan menjadi mata kuliah dalam ilmu publisistik. Tito melacak Diskursus ilmu penerangan ini ada sebelum 1945. Departemen Penerangan juga menjadi  salah satu dari 12 departemen pertama indonesia, kata Tito. Sedangkan istilah ‘ilmu publisistik’ berdasar pelacakan Tito, muncul pada era 60an ketiak banyak akademisi Indonesia yang terpengaruh dan studi di Jerman. Jerman mengunakan istilah publisistik sebelum menyebut studi media dan komunikasi.

“Publisistik atau publizeren atau terminologi dalam bahasa jerman itu punya lingkup lebih luas dibanding jurnalistik. Tapi tentu keduanya berbeda dengan terminologi komunikasi yang kita kenal sekarang. karena itu yang nanti akan menjadi argumen Profesor Astrid Susanto yang nanti akan mengubah itu,” ungkap Tito di tengah diskusi via aplikasi Zoom ini.

Pada tahun 1949 muncul namanya akademi politik di Jogja. Data yang Tito temukan, akademi itulah yang pertama kali mengajarkan ilmu penerangan. “Nanti akademi ilmu politik ini akan berubah menjadi jurusan ilmu sosial politik, Fakultas Ilmu Hukum, UGM,” paparnya.

Bagaimana Lika-liku Diskursus Ilmu Komunikasi di Indonesia?

Menurut penuturan Tito, ada otoritas pengajar publisistik, seperti publisistik Unpad dan UGM. Perubahan Ilmu Publisistik di 1970an ke ilmu komunikasi yang diajukan Prof Astrid Susanto, “ini pernah jadi Dekan Unpad lalu pindah ke UI,” katanya. Tito menjelaskan, menurut beberapa akademisi, ada perubahan paradigma ilmu pengetahuan saat itu. “Hampir semuanya berargumen termasuk saya, berargumen, ini merupakan transisi dari paradigma ilmu penegtahuan yang sebelumnya Jerman ya, dari paradigma eropa kontinental, ke arah yang baru nih anglo saxon Amerika,” papar Tito.

“Kalau kita lacak buku-buku periode 1950an kita bisa lihat itu di amerika sedang ramai sekali  ilmu komunikasi. Yang sebelumnya mazhabnya Laswell itu digempur, lalu muncul kontestan-kontenstan lain Lazarsfeld,” kata TIto mengungkap pelacakannya. Lazarfeld, kata Tito, pernah kerjasama dengan Horkheimer dan Adorno (ilmuwan Jerman). Mereka melakukan riset bersama walau tampak agak berbeda pendekatannya, katanya. Tito juga menjelaskan tokoh-tokoh ilmu komunikasi yang gandrung saat periode 50an di Amerika lainnya seperti Curt Levin, atau Hovland yang pertama kali mengenalkan metode eksperimentasi di ilmu komunikasi.

Legitimasi Ilmu Komunikasi di negeri Abang Sam justru mulai bergema pada 1950an di kampus-kampus di sana. Pada 1970, paradigma itu mempengaruhi indonesia. Dalam Arti, kata Tito, pada saat itu, paradigma ‘ilmu komunikasi’ sudah mulai diperbincangkan akademisi-akademisi indonesia. “Itu yang menjadi landasan banyak yang mengatakan pendidikan ilmu komunikasi mulai bergeser dari eropa kontinental ke anglo saxon,” tambah Tito.

Apakah tepat? Menurut Tito, tidak terlalu salah juga argumen tersebut, karena periode 1960an, ada Profesor Alwi Dahlan, orang indonesia yang pertama kali mengunjungi Amerika. Alwi mendapatkan gelar doktor pada 1967. Ia, kata Tito, jadi salah satu sarjana ilmu komunikasi indonesia yang pertama kali menamatkan studinya di Amerika.

Amir Effendi Siregar Forum # 2: Soeharto’s Regime Influences Indonesian Communication Curriculum and Research (2)

Reading Time: 3 minutes

>> Previous writing Soeharto’s Regime Influences Indonesian Communication Curriculum and Research (1)

Justito Adiprasetio’s opportunity in the second series of the Amir Effendi Siregar Forum revealed various influences in the Communication Science discourse in Indonesia. He explained that there were influences from German, American scholar and Suharto’s order in the Communication Studies Discourse in Indonesia.

“So, the discourse on ‘information’ as we know that in Unpad there was a study program in communication management, there used to be information science. Formerly in several campuses, there were departments majoring in communication, namely information science, even publicist science used to be under knowledge,” said Tito , Justito’s nickname.

Discourse on ‘information’, Publicist, till Communication Science

In fact, Tito continued, information science is a subject in publicist science. Tito traced this discourse of information before 1945. The Information Department was also one of the first 12 Indonesian departments, said Tito. While the term ‘publicist science’ based on Tito’s tracking, emerged in the 60s when many Indonesian academics were affected and studied in Germany. Germany uses the term publicist before referring to the study of media and communication.

“Publisistik or publizeren or terminology in German language has a wider scope than journalism. But of course both are different from the communication terminology that we know today. Because that will later become the argument of Professor Astrid Susanto who will later change it,” said Tito in the middle discussion via this Zoom application.

In 1949 the name of the political academy in Jogja emerged. The data that Tito found, the academy was the first to teach the science of information. “Later this political science academy will turn into the department of social political science, Faculty of Law, UGM,” he explained.

How about the twists and turns of Communication Studies in Indonesia?

According to Tito, there are publicist teaching authorities, such as Unpad and UGM publicists. The change of Publication Science in the 1970s to communication science proposed by Prof. Astrid Susanto, “this was once a Dean of Unpad then moved to UI,” he said. Tito explained, according to some academics, there was a paradigm shift in science at the time. “Almost all of them argue, including me, to argue, this is a transition from the paradigm of science that was previously German, from the continental European paradigm, to the new direction of American anglo saxon,” said Tito.

“If we trace the books of the 1950s, we can see that in America there is a lot of communication science. Previously, the Laswell school was stormed, then other contestants appeared, Lazarsfeld,” TIto revealed his tracking. Lazarfeld, said Tito, had collaboration with Horkheimer and Adorno (German scientists). They did joint research even though the approach seemed somewhat different, he said. Tito also explained communication figures who were infatuated during the 50s period in America such as Curt Levin, or Hovland who first introduced the method of experimentation in communication science.

USA’s Effect?

The legitimacy of Communication Studies in the United States of America actually began to reverberate in the 1950s on campuses there. In 1970, that paradigm affected Indonesia. The Meaning is, said Tito, at that time, the paradigm of ‘communication science’ had begun to be discussed by Indonesian academics. “That is the basis of many who say communication science education has begun to shift from continental Europe to the Anglo-Saxon,” Tito added.

Is it right? According to Tito, this argument is not too wrong, because in the 1960s, there was Professor Alwi Dahlan, an Indonesian who first visited America. Alwi got his doctorate in 1967. He, said Tito, was one of the first scholars in Indonesian communication who completed his studies in America.
