Ini adalah edisi pertama Teatime IP Komunikasi UII bersama Shadira Firdausi dengan tema: Muda Kreatif dan berbakat. Acara diadakan oleh Program Internasional Jurusan Komunikasi Universitas Islam Indonesia. Tea Time  adalah forum untuk mendorong dan menginspirasi siswa dan kaum muda untuk memperkaya kapasitas, pengetahuan, dan pengalaman mereka di tengah pandemi saat ini. Bintang tamu pertama dari Program Teatime adalah Shadira Firdausi yang merupakan mahasiswa sarjana Jurusan Ilmu Komunikasi. Ia memiliki kemampuan berbicara banyak bahasa.

Setidaknya Shadira menguasai tiga bahasa yang berbeda. Shadira dapat berbicara bahasa Italia, bahasa Inggris, dan Indonesia. “Karena jika Anda tahu bahasa, baik bahasa Spanyol, Italia, maupun Perancis, Anda dapat dengan mudah berbicara dan memahami bahasa asing lain karena tata bahasanya serupa,” kata Shadira di Program Internasional (IP) Komunikasi UII Instagram. Tapi bagaimana dia bisa mendapatkan kemampuan itu?

Shadira mengikuti program pertukaran pelajar ketika dia masih di sekolah menengah. Dia belajar di sekolah di luar negeri selama setahun. Dia juga melakukan kursus bahasa Italia, kursus bahasa Prancis, dan bahasa Spanyol,” katanya. “Anda juga dapat mengunduh aplikasi bernama duolingo, pada saat pandemi ini, Anda tidak dapat berbuat apa-apa selama pandemi. Ini Gratis. Anda juga dapat belajar bahasa Arab di sana.”

Shadira mengatakan Anda dapat berbicara bahasa Italia dan Indonesia sedikit sama dan agak mudah dipelajari karena jenisnya yang mirip.

“Aku bisa mengajarimu bu Ida, jika kamu mau. Haha, kamu dulu sudah mengajariku di kelas dan sekarang giliranku  akan mengajarimu bahasa itu,” kata Shadira tertawa. Ida Nuraini Dewi, pembawa acara Live Instagram itu juga tertawa setelah tawaran itu. “Agak gugup jika saya mencoba belajar bahasa lain, tetapi saya akan mencobanya nanti, ha-ha-ha,” kata Ida.

Shadira pernah bernyanyi dalam sebuah kompetisi di italia, “Saya adalah satu-satunya orang Indonesia di sana, tapi saya harus menghadapinya,” Shadira berbagi cerita ketika dia memulai karir menyanyinya.

Menjawab Pertanyaan dari Audiens

Di tengah percakapan Instagram itu, seseorang bertanya di Instagram Live Chat,

“Mana yang lebih sulit? Bahasa Spanyol atau Italia?”

“Bagi saya bahasa Spanyol. Ini agak sulit untuk mengucapkan bahasa Spanyol. Dalam bahasa Italia, sama seperti Anda menulis, bagaimana Anda mengatakannya di Indonesia,” kata Shadira.

Ida dan Shadira juga berbagi tentang pengalaman mereka #stayathome #dirumahaja selama pandemi. Mereka memberi tahu kami bahwa, sepertinya semua orang melakukannya, virus korona sangat mengganggu. “Aku tidak pernah begitu merindukan aktivitas akademik di universitas,” kata Shadira. “Itu membuatmu frustasi. Kita tidak bisa bertemu dan kita bisa mengungkapkan sesuatu ketika bertemu seseorang. Aku berharap ini akan segera berakhir. Dan kemudian pergi ke kantin lagi seperti yang kita lakukan sebelum pandemi.”

Ida, sebagai pembawa acara, kemudian mengajukan pertanyaan kunci kepada Shadira. “Apa yang Anda pikirkan dalam situasi seperti ini, sebagai generasi muda, bagaimana memaksimalkan untuk mencapai talenta? Mungkin Anda berencana mengambil studi master di luar negeri? karena kita sepertinya tidak dapat melakukan apa-apa selama pandemi,” kata Ida bertanya.

“Yah sebenarnya untuk saya, 4 bulan sekarang ya, ini seperti waktu yang sangat lama bagi saya, dan saya mendapatkan banyak kesempatan untuk mengenal diri sendiri sekarang. Saya mencoba untuk belajar memahami diri secara mendalam, belajar untuk memeriksa kembali rencana saya. Sekarang saya tahu apa yang harus dilakukan, meng-cover lagu lagi, melakukan apa saja, mempelajari bahasa baru, jika Anda di rumah sekarang  membuat Anda lebih kreatif, ” jawab Shadira.

Pengalaman saat Pandemi

Apa yang Anda sadari saat ini ketika pandemi mendera, tanya Ida.

Shadira mengatakan bahwa sekarang dia dapat menghabiskan lebih banyak waktu dengan keluarganya. “Karena ibuku adalah ibu pekerja keras, wanita karier, sekarang kami terjebak dalam satu rumah, kami meraih ikatan emosional kami kembali, ini adalah semacam anugrah, itu efek positif dari virus korona.”

Pertanyaan lain dari peserta live chat Instagram muncul lagi: “apa yang harus kita lakukan untuk mengatasi kemalasan?”

Shadira menjawab, “Tergantung pada hal apa yang Anda sukai. Jika Anda suka memasak, Anda bisa menjual masakan Anda. Jika Anda ingin mengedit video, Anda dapat mengunggah vlog atau sesuatu di Youtube. Saya pikir Anda dapat menemukan apa pun di Youtube sekarang. Yang harus Anda lakukan adalah, Anda hanya perlu berpikir apa yang cocok dengan hobi dan keahlian anda. Unggah di tiktok atau Instagram. Lakukan pemotretan virtual untuk Anda yang suka memotret, atau lainnya. ”

Pengalaman karir bernyanyi

Ida juga bertanya tentang pengalaman bernyanyi Shadira. Shadira sekarang sedang menapaki pengalaman baru. Dia menandatangani kontrak dengan rumah produksi populer bernama Warner Music. Bagaimana bisa awalnya?

“Awalnya, dulu, Saya memenangkan kompetisi di sekolah menengah tanpa memberi tahu keluarga saya di awal aktivitas menyanyi saya,” kata Shadira. Dan itu menjadi begitu lama setelah orang tuanya tahu tentang hal itu. Orang tuanya tidak mengetahuinya sampai Ia memberi tahu mereka. “Sekarang mereka benar-benar mendukung saya untuk kompetisi apa pun, atau bahkan sampai Warner memberi kontrak saya dan saya menandatangani kontrak itu.”

“Aku sedang mengerjakan single saya. Ini sedang dalam proses. Aku perlu memikirkan apa saja, instrumen, liriknya pas, dan segalanya untuk memastikan lagunya cukup bagus untuk didengar.”

Pertanyaan lain untuk  Shadira lagi di live chat. “Apa hal pertama yang kamu lakukan jika pandemi hilang?”

“Aku sangat menginginkan salim (bersalaman), memeluk keluargaku, Kau tahu, kami melambaikan tangan ke yang lain sampai sekarang. Karena kami bahkan tidak bisa menyentuh salaman, tradisi kita. Bahkan kita tidak bisa memeluk seseorang. Ini hal pertama yang akan saya lakukan. Dan, juga mengambil gelar master mungkin ya? “

Kunci untuk mendapatkan Prestasi yang luar biasa.

“Tapi apa kunci untuk memiliki banyak prestasi sepertimu, kalau begitu?”

“Kuncinya adalah, saya tidak terburu-buru. Saya tidak perlu terburu-buru meraih sesuatu, jika Anda ingin sesuatu yang benar-benar bagus, Anda tidak perlu terburu-buru. Lakukan saja dan hal yang benar akan datang. Mungkin itu tidak akan benar-benar datang tahun ini. Tapi itu akan terjadi,” kata Shadira.

Shadira juga menceritakan kisah bagaimana semuanya dimulai. Dia mengatakan bahwa pada hari itu, ketika dia bangun suatu hari, dia merasa, “Mengapa saya tidak memiliki prestasi besar sampai hari ini?”

Kemudian Dia membuka “fitur explore instagram” dan dia mencari seseorang yang muncul di Instagram. Dia menemukan jika dia bisa melakukannya, mengapa saya tidak bisa melakukannya juga. Itu terjadi saat ia di sekolah menengahnya, katanya.

Dia berkata bahwa dia ingin menjadi salah satu dari mereka yang memiliki prestasi yang baik. “Aku bisa melakukan apa yang mereka lakukan. Jadi, bagaimana memulai, begitu sulit untuk pertama kalinya,” Shadira berbagi.

Sikap dalam meraih prestasi

Di akhir pembicaraan, Shadira memberikan nasihat yang bijak dan baik kepada setiap anak muda di luar sana.

“Jika kamu memiliki bakat yang kurang atau prestasi yang kurang, sesuatu yang harus kamu lakukan adalah lakukan saja. Kita harus menghancurkan dan menghadapinya. Jika mereka selalu mengatakan kamu tidak cukup baik, patahkan saja! Karena kamu adalah orang yang tahu siapa Anda. Kamu harus mencoba untuk membuktikannya. Kita hanya berusaha sebaik mungkin agar orang tidak meremehkan kita.”

Yang terakhir, namun tidak kalah pentingnya, Ibu Ida ingin menutup percakapan Teatime ini  dengan sebuah lagu yang dinyanyikan oleh Shadira. “Bisakah kita mendengar sedikit lagu? Untuk mengobati kerinduan kita selama pandemi ini? Shadira mengatakan ya untuk itu. Pembicaraan ditutup dengan Shadira menyanyikan lagu Before You Go yang dipopulerkan Lewis Capaldi.

At a glance, the summary of the AES # 1 Forum is: Journalistic History Important To Taught in the Department of Journalism and Communication Studies. Lutfi Adam, scholar graduate from Northwestern University, speaker of the Amir Effendi Siregar Forum (Forum AES) said that. This First Session held on June 28, 2020 in a Zoom video conference by the Center for Study and Alternative Media Documentation NADIM of Communication Science Department at Univeersitas Islam Indonesia. He was the first speaker at the first AES Forum this year with the theme: History of Communication.

Holy Rafika Dhona is the Head of PSDMA Nadim Communication Department at UII. He, as well as the moderator, said he and the team chose Lutfi Adam, Ph.D as the guest speaker with many reason. First, because he had a history and communication background as well. “And his knowledge is still new because he just graduated in May 2020. He is also the winner of a dissertation prize at the Department of History at Northwestern University. It was the campus where he earned his doctorate,” said Holy Rafika, Lecturer in Communication Science Department. Holy also have a specialty in the field of Geographic Communication studies.

Rafika also explained why this forum was called the AES Forum. This forum was formed by Communication Science Department of UII to talk about ideas or spirit about communication in particular. “This name is a reminder of the founder of our department. And he is also owned by all members of the press in Indonesia.”

Historical Method for Communication Research

Lutfi Adam said in his presentation at the beginning, this event was also planned to be made into a book. “So maybe in the future, I will write a method for communication research. It should be in more detail in the form of an essay. So that the picture can be clearer.”

On this occasion, first, Lutfi Adam explained what he would explain in this session. “I will discuss the historical method as communication research,” he said. “Before begining this session, there is any disclaimer: I was no longer a scholar of communication science. My last education was history. So, I represent the discipline of history, not communication,” he continued. Lutfi said, he would share a historical method. However, he can provide an overview of how to adopt historical research methods for communication research. It is because he has a background in communication and media studies.

Then, we neet to answer many question when discussing the history of communication. First, why is it important to research the history of communication. Then, how about researching history. Then, how does communication adopt the historical method for research?

Mas Marco and Journalistic History

Hence, Lutfi Adam also explained the urgency of the history of communication by recounting flash back a few years ago when in the 2005 and 2006 he composed a undergraduated thesis. The theme of the undergraduated thesis he raised was a matter of his strong urge to write journalistic history. He read many sources, especially, about the experiences and stories of journalism journey of Tirto Adi Soerjo. And at least, He finally passed on Mas Marco Kartodikromo as an early journalist.

Pramoedya Ananta Toer’s Tetralogy Book very inspiring Luthfi. That the book titled is This Earth of Mankind. “In the past, when I was composing my research, I was concerning to compose journalistic history. Tetralogy of This Earth of Mankind was inspiring me. And in my opinion was the history of the press,” Luthfi explained.

According to Lutfi, in this Tetralogy Book of This Earth of Mankind, the role of journalists is embedded in an era known as the era of nationalism.

“I am curious about this character, Mas Marco. Then I wrote a thesis on the history of Mas Marco Kartodikromo.” Then he raised the question, “how do I write history in the communication department  Faculty?”

Why is Journalistic History Important To Taught in the Department of Journalism and Communication Studies ?

At that time, said Lutfi, he used solely the instincts used in the work of journalism. “Use the journalist’s instincts,” he said. How the journalists worked, mapped out topics, searched for data, written sources, interviewed sources, “and I plotted to do that and retrieve data. I went to the National Library. Read many, including the writings of Mas Marco from other newspapers I managed to collect,” he recalled.

“Until I brought the writing and I always got insights and research topics from there. That also made me succeed in getting a historical scholarship. If I could get a doctoral research history scholarship, wasn’t that what I used yesterday as the journalist’s instincts is a meaningful historical method? actually, it is no different,” he thought later.

“What I want to say is, why I say it is important to examine the history of Mas Marco? The difficulty when I first studied journalistic theory was to contextualize the values ​​taught by my lecturers,” he explained. “But more or less what I got in the classroom, the illustrations are not detailed and not down to earth. That makes me feel journalistic history is an important course. So it should taught in the journalism department,” concluded Luthfi.

“Because in my opinion, even though history is a very practical science, but when explored, journalistic history is very rich. It also can help journalistic scholars to develop journalism. We can not develop journalism, journalistic values, and journalistic techniques, if we do not understand the history of journalistic development,” said Lutfi to complete the story.
