MEWUJUDKAN INSAN INDONESIA CERDAS KOMPREHENSIF DAN KOMPETITIF

Abstrak / Ringkasan

In the Opening (Preambule) of the 1945 Constitution, it has
been stated that one of the Republic of Indonesia govemment's goals is
to smarten the national life. Thus, if the goal is achieved, then output
obtained is intelligent Indonesian figures. The question needs to be
forwarded is: What is actually the meaning of "intelligenF? Can education
be said qualified if it just guide its pupils to be intellectually intelligent? In
other words, what intelligent Indonesian Figures are expected by this
country?
The Department of National Education in the long term of the 2025
Strategic Plan about Building National Education mentioned that national
education vision in 2025 wishes to yield intelligent, and Competitive
Indonesian Figures. What meant by "intelligent" here is comprehensively
intelligent, including spiritual, emotional and social, intellectual, and
kinestetic intelligent (the Department of National Education, 2005).
The national education vision can be achieved through long education
process at schools. As known that education is able to include both
academic and non-academic education, so the development of the four
kinds of intelligence and competitive characteristic can be included
through education. Education strategy used can be done by means
making inclusive goal aspects that is going to be achieved into co-
concentric curriculum. It means that education materials provided from
the kindergarten up to the high school, even to university always contain
goal aspects that are going to be reached and be increased gradually
both in content and concentration in the higher education degree. In
addition, it is necessary to pay attention that the institutionalization of
education goal aspects should be done as appropriate and balance
without ignoring any roles of the aspects. In this matter, besides the
relationships of Inter-intelligence between physical one and spiritual one
had to be balance and mutually support, then the relationships of Intra-
intelligence, that is, between spiritual one, emotional and social one, as
well as intellectual one should be appropriate and balance.
