The Role of Young Generation in Counter-terrorism



My name is Yudha Septian Kurniawan. Now, I am studying at University of Bengkulu by taking English Education Postgraduate Study Programme. I was graduated at 2014 from Institut Agama Islam Negeri (IAIN) Bengkulu with the same major, English Education Programme. When I was undergraduate student, I was really glad joining some organization such as association of students.  There were some of coalescence that had followed by me. For example, I had experience to be a leader of student compilation of Pencak Silat Rejang Pat Petulai and association of English Student Community. Being such a leader had gave me a worth experience that would unforgetable. Those included management of organization in which handled lot of people who had different vision and mision, in which develop its organization by doing some events and many more. The important thing that I should had as a leader was selfonfidence and speaking ability in front of many people. At the time, it was really complicated for me in controlling them and being atractive speaker. But, fortunately i was be able to do it time by time. By having those experiences, I feel that I have more selftconfidence, selfcontrol and selfesteem.
I am 24 years old.   As one of young generation, I think that many ways can be followed in order to show up our role or existence in this globalization era, especially in nationalism such as counter terrorism.  Everyone can do it even they are not volunteer in the organization against terrorism. On the other side, I am not one of them but I am only an English teacher for senior high school (namely SMAN 1 Bengkulu Tengah) in Bengkulu province. Even only a teacher, I believe that I have big chance to do my role in counter-terrorism. One of my real contribute is teaching the student. I can teach them everything includes culture, language, esthetic, ethic, more over about nationalism. In doing my task as a teacher, I have the authority to teach them about the understanding of terrorism directly. Even I am English teacher, in learning and teaching process, I am not only might teach them about English but also I can play my role as young generation by combining the course among English, Islamic, and nationalism that related to the counter-terrorism. When I was teaching them, it seems that I had great way to put some moral value which antipodes with terrorism by conveying the materials which is easy understood and presenting the basic knowledge about “what terrorist is”, how to resist them, and how to defend sense of belong toward our beloved country. Those all can be applied by bring about some activities or events like as seminar that oppose any movement which aim to terrorism or indeed such positive events such as charity with the objective to implant the value of amorousness toward the birthplace.
In my opinion, terrorism is always growing and developing in our country, Indonesia. That is because of Indonesia which is not really care about citizen’s awareness toward nationalism. That’s way, some group of terrorist (e.g ISIS) can entry Indonesia easily and grow quickly. They didn’t attack us with a guns but they try to resemble the young generation because that our country’s bright future in handed on young generation. Why they pursue the young generation?  That is because they are in changing period that can be influenced easily by terrorist. They don’t have the aims or goals in their life, yet. That’s why I want to concern to be a teacher who can change the condition of the country which known that is crisis of morality. Some of Research aimed at explaining terrorism has focused on the psychological characteristics of individual terrorists, the nature of terrorist organizations, and the social or cultural environments in which terrorist organizations emerge. The psychology of terrorists. In a useful summation of the literature, Ross (a researcher that concern on terrorism) has identified seven psychological approaches that have been used in efforts to understand terrorists: psychoanalytical, learning, frustration-aggression, narcissism-aggression, trait, developmental, and motivational/rational choice. Finding some merit in each, though none is satisfactory in itself, he proposes an integration of their key features in a model consisting of five "etiological features of terrorism listed in increasing order of importance" (on his book p. 182) and it is one of reasons why I give understanding of terrorism to my students through psychology approach in my teaching learning proccess. John Quincy Adams also said that  If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader. —John Quincy Adams
Without the right kind of stimulus, people produce mediocre work and drain out quickly. Some get inspired by power, some by incentives, some by appreciation and some by interesting work. It is your responsibility to identify specific motivation factors in your employees and empower them. Your effort to nourish the team will also indicate that you care for them, which in turn is a great fuel to boost productivity and loyalty. Finally,  I believe that our country will be a country that respected by the world if young generation in this country can gives their role as well as possible.

ENGLISH FOR BUSINESS STUDENT - SUMMARY OF ENGLISH FOR SPECIFIC PURPOSE


1.      Background
Business English Course is taught to students of International Economic Relations Department within 5 years (9 semesters). To facilitate the academic process students are grouped in the first year according to their language performance and practical mastery of English. There is no arguing that teaching to more advanced students is far more challenging. You may have upper-intermediate to advanced students in the first year of study. It is something of a task to work out a five-year course with very scarce resources.
The course  is intended for the third year students. They have 5 hours of practical classes a week. Students are expected to acquire and develop their skills in carrying out negotiations, analyzing market research data, teamwork performance, business projects and so forth. It is designed a course with considerable emphasis on writing skills. It is essential for students to work out the proper approach towards plagiarism, as there is an overall neglect of copyright in the academic circles. While reading articles in magazines, newspapers, and books students find important information that they wish to include in their paper. They must know how to borrow that authors words without plagiarizing the information. Instilling this conception is also valuable for submitting papers in native language. So using quotations and writing paraphrases and summaries are important tools in academic writing, which this course facilitates.

2.      Instructional Objectives
Many graduates are being asked to use their knowledge of English for much wider purposes, for instance they work in embassies, oil and mining companies, translate documents, act as interpreters or tourist guides, serve as clerks and administrators, analysts. As we know, in many of these cases, the graduates’ use of English is a gateway to many wider responsibilities in business, economics and administration.
Learning is not just a mental process, it is the process of negotiation between individuals and society. Society sets the target and the individuals must do their best to get as close to that target situation as possible. So, that’s why English will be more important to learn for every elements.
If we talk about Instructional Objectives of this course (Business English curriculum) is to develop a curriculum for the Business English course emphasizing the use of English for developmental purposes since the established English syllabus does not adequately meet these needs.
3.      Target Participants
This course is intended for employees who need to express themselves precisely and accurately in English in business situations. At the conclusion of the course, participants:
  • can express themselves more precisely and with greater confidence in a number of business situations
  • have built up a collection of practical skills and vocabulary, which put them in a position to represent their company in a professional and effective way
4.      Skill Development
The aim of the presented curriculum is to expose the students to a variety of challenging and interesting text types in the reading and listening activities, to bring their own experiences and feelings to the fore in order to achieve accurate and confident language use.
Often at the advanced level, courses tend to be unstimulating, but a teacher is to provide balanced practice in all four language skills of reading, listening, writing and speaking by engaging students both as language learners and as people with experiences and feelings of their own.
Communicative methodology facilitates this, being embodied in the following features: students should be challenged cognitively, be involved in he learning process, take part in the realistic activities, be asked to contribute their own experiences and feelings, be encouraged to work closely with peers., to assume certain responsibility for their own learning. To implement these ideas a teacher adopts differing roles according to the stage of the lesson, like the ones of informer, monitor, resource and consultant.
This course use a regular set of teaching techniques. It will be started bydiscussion point, which launches the theme of the lesson by means of a speaking activity. This often prompts use of the target language. A reading activity enables further exposition to the topic and usually contains significant exponents of the target language. Listening activity is an essential part of the curriculum. A speaking activity related to the theme is either a role play or a discussion is normally crowned by a writing activity, focused on some aspect of the writing skill. The teacher encourage the students to have field visits at the banks, companies and production sites to complete project works assigned to them.
5.      Level
The course is based on the participants’ language level, the business needs and the requirements the company sets for its employees’ linguistic competencies. It is built up on a number of modules designed to develop language skills and vocabulary within specific business areas. The instructors work together with course participants to define their specific needs and tailor the course accordingly. Some of the areas typically covered include:
  • Business meetings
  • Presentations
  • Sales and Marketing
  • Small talk
  • Negotiations
  • Written correspondence
  • Reports
  • Accounting
  • Finance
  • Insurance
  • Telephone skills

The process of writing and revising drafts is delineated. The introduction into successful academic writing may seem too copious.
It is up to the teacher whether to make students work on their own and study the recommended readings or present the essential information to the students in a condensed form. The latter is time-consuming for the teacher but proves to be more effective as all these points will be considered in fulfilling written assignments during the whole course of study.
