Meso and Micro Systems that Cause Child Lazy Learning
0 Comments | Posted by Dudy Adityawan in Education
The definition of micro systems are those closest to children and every day contact with the child (father-mother, brother and sister, bro, aunt, grandfather, servants, drivers, school friends, teachers, etc.), or the places in which children are daily (home, neighborhood, gardens, schools, cities, etc.). The interaction between the elements in the system is called Micro Meso system.
In connection with the development posmo (which by Alvin Toffler called “The Third Wave” QUOTATION), then the system of micro-and Meso children will also change drastically. Parents, teachers, teacher of the Koran, his parents’ friends, especially television, is no longer a single language and unanimous-one word in educating children. In the past, every word parent is almost always consistent with the guidance of teachers in the school or talk of the people in the mosque or in the market. But now what is said is very different from their parents who were shown on TV, or to talk her parent’s friends, or advice of a teacher mother. Even between fathers and mothers often do not agree, because mothers today are aware of gender, have their own income (sometimes even bigger than her husband), so feel entitled also to decide in a household environment.
Create their own parents, who felt that the child is no longer just listening to his own parents. Children more often denied, even against the parents, because he saw many examples beyond that is not the same as what the parents. If the child is forbidden to drive pad 14 years of age, he could immediately appoint another child who is allowed drive since elementary school; if a child is told to pray, he was immediately referred to Mr. De his not praying. If he was forbidden home tonight, he even came home early, because all her friends took her to the disco or the cafe.
Child
Meanwhile, the children themselves still children as from the days of yore. Childhood children form a personality through the primary input from the environment (the family). Until the age of 5-8 years he is still accepting input (stage Formative). By the teens (ages ABG) he began to rebel and find his true identity and will become increasingly strained as he was a teenager (more difficult to set) so that this period is often called the transition period.
This transition period is essentially the final stage before children enter the age of mature and responsible, because he already knows benchmarks that must be followed and be able to establish themselves what is right and wrong, what’s good and bad and what is beautiful and the ugly.
But the transition period within the individual would be more difficult to achieve stability and maturity, if the conditions in the outside world also transition continues, as in this posmo era. The impact is the emergence of generations of teenagers and young adults who continue and become the adulthood. This generation whom I met in the office with the confusion which direction you choose, hesitated because his girlfriend is not approved by parents, desperate for pregnant out of wedlock or because they can not get out of the habit of using drug abuse.
Paradigm Change
Facing the era of the all posmo is not clear, the biggest mistake, but that it is most often performed, is to educate children based on old traditions and without alternative. That is, all taught by parents absolutely must be followed; parents rights and power wire for the child, the child should be filial to parents, etc. At school the teachers are still often BASED ON THE adage “the teacher is obeyed and imitated), that is true or false teachers have always obeyed. Similarly in the field of religion, politics and even (respectively the political elite and a group of students felt he was the most correct).
This constantly otority approach, then the children will confusion and more confused so as not confident or even more rebellious and became outlaws. Therefore, in the era of the macro posmo system, the child’s education should be oriented to the development of the child’s ability to make judgments and decisions (judgment) own more precisely and quickly. In other words, children must be educated to judge for themselves which is right / wrong, good / not good or beautiful / ugly, and on that basis he decided where the best action for himself. Children are taught to always obey their parents, in the struggle will find someone else or others (in his Micro system) that can made new reference and then he would obey the call or just another person’s direction (which it is likely very misleading).
Closing
Must be recognized that a parent or educator is very difficult today. First, because most have never experienced parent current situation in their childhood; second, because they tend to mimic only ways to educate parents do or seniors themselves in the past and the third, it is very difficult to change one’s mind from traditional thinking and alternative thinking in accordance with the demands of today.
But no matter how tough and difficult, the effort must be done, because if not then we will plunge our young generation in greater difficulty.
