This
is a very extraordinary day. The first time I went abroad to find a new
experience, new friends and see a broader insight together with friends from
Indonesia. finally it was time for me to fly to the land of the white elephant
for a month. gain knowledge so that what I will get with my friends can be
applied in my country. and how about a good education system and how to teach
good techniques. how's the story of my journey read it out. Happy reading.
August
4, 2018 the journey is started. we had to leave leaving Jambi to fly to
Jakarta. right at 09.00 we departed. I was joined by friends and lecturers from
the University of Jambi. his name is rahmalia's mother. and I will start the
journey with my friend named Abdul Azis. lots of messages delivered before we
left. ranging from maintaining worship, eating regularly and focusing on
devotion. because our goal is to serve together to create an important idea for
a teacher. that's what I remember. and we entered the plane and then flew to
Jakarta for one hour. after that when we arrived in Jakarta, we immediately
rushed to the flight to Bangkok. this flight takes 4 hours. quite a long
journey. so I thought this was a boring trip. sit down, shut up in a plane.
this is the first time I've been on a plane for four hours. I hope I'm not
sick. our journey was carried out until late afternoon. coincidentally azis sat
right next to me. at least we can tell stories while on the plane and reduce
boredom on the plane.
Before
go to Jakarta
Upon
arrival in bangkok. Very crowded people at this airport. and all communicate
with English. this is a challenge to follow the sea teacher. the language we
use must be an international language, namely English. the first time we were
looking for was a cellphone card to give news especially to family, friends and
friends in Indonesia. that's where I first used English. I am not very smart
but they understand what I say. vice versa. the price of the starter card at
the airport is 299 bath (Thai currency) for 8 days. then after we contacted the
family. I sat on the floor and felt a new atmosphere. this is what is called
overseas. where many people are walking fast. nothing is slow and they just
think of working to work and work. apart from that. we have problems finding a
domestic flight terminal. we almost got the bus to go to the terminal which
even though the terminal was upstairs. luckily there were two women who
approached us and showed us where the road was going to the domestic terminal.
they are very kind. from there I realized and believed that there were still
many good people here who wanted to help each other. and from here also I feel
this Thai person is very good and I'm happy to be here. When I arrived at the
terminal, I had to sleep in a chair because the pilot to Loei was at 8 a.m that
night we spent resting and lying in a chair even though it was very cold in the
room.
August
5, 2018
Morning
arrived. I was prepared to put the goods in the baggage. we boarded the plane
three times because our location was far from Bangkok. entering the baggage
turns out to have to pay 900 baths again. very good value for us because we
only brought 5000 baths for one month. but that is not a problem for an
experience. because experience is the most valuable teacher. the trip was taken
for one hour. and we arrived at Loei. a beautiful, green and cool province.
very similar to a district in Jambi, namely Kerinci. a little treat longing
because of the similarity of the surrounding atmosphere that made me believe
that I would be comfortable in this location. I was waiting to be picked up
with Loei Rajabhat University. interval of one hour, finally we were picked up
with several students who also followed sea teacher, namely yokz, yo, and phim.
they are my new friends here. not only that. there is one friend from fhilipina
named paul. he is also a sea teacher who will adventure with us. short of our
story was taken to the inn. we stayed at international dormitory. 3rd floor
above and I was one room with Azis. We are very happy to find that at our
location we have wifi that we can at least use to communicate with family. when
we put down the items we were so hungry that we were ushered into the cafeteria
at LRU. order food. this is not easy for Muslims. we must be careful in
choosing food. that's the first time I ate Thai food

We
have time to tidy up the clothes in the closet and take a full rest after a
long, tiring journey. while waiting on the 8th because we will introduce
ourselves to lecturers and teacher teachers at Loei Rajabhat University
August
8, 2018
It's my first day
speaking in public. in front of friends of Thailand and lecturers in Thailand.
this is an extraordinary experience and very rarely obtained by many people. I
also introduced myself. and also introduced to Jambi University and our home
region, Jambi Province. 9 and 10 August 2018 we have two days to go around Loei
Rajabhat University. I am accompanied by Pham. a student of the same social
sciences with me. because here I teach social science even though I come from
economic education. he also invited me to surround all the locations in this
university. and most importantly he is very kind and friendly.

Academic support system
Regarding the academic support
system in this school is very complete. starting from teaching facilities such
as infocus, air conditioning, lights, and speakers to help and support the
teacher to deliver the subject matter to be taught. then about the room is also
very complete. maybe this school is still newly founded so it still has a few
students. but in general all facilities in this school are very complete. there
is a computer room, a teacher's room, and a multipurpose room if there is a
holiday or a memorial.
Teaching system
At this school uses a teaching
system called the school curriculum. where scores for students for Thai,
mathematics, natural sciences, social, English and history are 70% based on
daily assessments and 30% based on final tests.
Then for sports, arts, thailand dan
computers (local content) the scoring system was 80% taken from the day and 20%
based on the final test results. The teacher explains according to the
circumstances that occur in life and uses applications that are useful to add
insight (kahoot) so that students do not tend to be monotonous and bored.
Materials and other learning sources
The materials and learning resources
at this school are using textbooks in Thailand and using applications and media
such as youtube and using the internet to support teaching materials.
Measurement and evaluation system
Measurement and evaluation systems
to students can be in the form of tests and assessments of how students can
understand what the teacher has explained in the classroom. sometimes there are
those who give assignments or homework but sometimes the teacher always
monitors how students are developing in the classroom and from there the
teacher can evaluate or measure how far the students' ability in learning.

In
that school there is elementary school. junior high school and even early
childhood education until kindergarten also exists. incorporated in one
container and name. this is a school that is made directly by the university to
develop the ability of students and female students in LRU kardna every week
there are those who practice teaching directly at this school. remarkable. I
was introduced to the principal here. I called her aunt Sasi and the Deputy
Head of School named Meow and there were also other teacher teachers who were
also extraordinary friends for a month. the names are noon, bombe, pham, and
other teachers that I can't name one by one. because I have a problem in
remembering the Thai name name. in
Thailand they have two names, they are long names and nicknames and the second
has no connection. that makes it difficult for me to remember their names. we
also immediately held the inaugural meeting discussing learning plans, rules
and introducing mentors and advisors for a month here. the name of my mentor is
pat Sartsin and the advisor who has a ajan dear.
Meet
with Director, advisor and mentor in Deminstration School of LRU
We
spent the five days observing into the classroom even a few minutes we talked
in front of the class and introduced our biodata to students and students. I
taught at the first high school in this school. I also feel very happy. at the
time of observation they were very pleased with my arrival here. seen from
their smiles on their faces. and I continue to see how to teach here with my
mentor. very exciting. begins with the game then the material and ends with the
game. of course this really makes students comfortable in learning. this is
what makes students better able to understand the lesson delivered by a teacher
rather than having to moton using the lecture method. because it can make students
not understand and get bored with it. from here I can learn that this is how to
educate students. even when we teach. they don't dare to hold the cellphone
even though in every corner the room has wifi.

That day was the first
day I taught and two hours were full of mine to explain and become a real
teacher. I was very enthusiastic at first, but with the help of the facilities
I was getting more excited. In addition, my friend bombe helped me in preparing
the lesson plan and preparing all the facilities in teaching such as infocus,
speakers and even mic in the room and fan which made me not overheating. this
is the first day and the language I use is international language. of course
this is not easy to do. need mental and strong confidence to be able to speak
here. I explained the social interaction of my students at that time. as a
result the first day was quite satisfying although not yet conducive. but I
didn't give up. I still have the next week to fix it all.
Teaching methods
1. Teacher centered method
The teacher is looked upon by the learners as an expert or an
authority. Leraners or the other hand copious recipient knowledge from the
teacher (spoon feeding)
a. Lecture method
Lack of
involvement of the learners.
2. Learner centered method
The teacher
becomes a resources rather than an authority.
a. Discussion method
Discovery or inquiry based approach interaction of the learner and
teacher in teaching learning process.
3. Learning
materials and innovation
Based on my observation, the teacher
used learning materials in the lesson like textbooks power point, group
activity, videos, and picture. Some of the teacher uses motivation activity can
become innovation in this lesson. I don’t only aid instruction, they help
learners to be motivated and ready for learning as well.
4.
Sources of learning and technology
Learning resources used for teaching
junior high school are student books and learning media from YouTube and the
internet that support teachers to be able to explain to students about daily
subject matter.
Then the technology used is power point, projector, speaker and wifi
which are always there to support learning
5. Authentic assessment
Authentic assessment is the
measurement of intellectual accomplishments that are worth while, significant
and meaningful. It can be devised by the teacher or in collaboration with the
student by engaging student voice.
1.
Real life situation
2.
Real world task
Authentic
assessment attempt to demonstrate what a student actually learns in class
rather than the students ability to do well on stand traditional tests.

that
day was a very extraordinary day for Indonesia. because on that day is the
independence day or the country's birthday. on that day I was in the land of
people. here I feel that nationalism is very strong in me. I also commemorate
it by holding and kissing the red and white image that I consider as a form of
my love for Indonesia.

Birthday

I
was invited by my friend named tack and nathi. they took me for a vacation and
walked to the hill called phu bho bhit. it is a hill with a height of
approximately 700 meters above sea level. I was very happy to see Loei,
Thailand from the top of the hill while watching the sunset.
Holiday Phu Bo Bit
August
22, 2018
A big day for Muslims
that coincides with my teaching hour. I really miss my parents because this is
our holiday. here I feel very high tolerance from teacher teachers in school.
they allow us to enter in the afternoon and in the morning we are invited to
worship. this is a form of extraordinary tolerance. we also don't waste time.
until finally we left for school.
On that day I also
taught material about money in Southeast Asia. still using the warm-up stage
with the game then the material and this time in the closing I gave a gift to
students who could answer my question correctly. the prize was in the form of
rupiah money which I took deliberately for them so that they always remember me
when I returned to Indonesia, worth 2,000, 5000, 10,000 and even 20,000 rupiah
for those who could and dare answer correctly. I did not get bored repeating
the material if they did not understand what I explained. As a result this
meeting is better than before and I feel more conducive.
Second week Teaching
August
25, 2018
I
was invited by the advisor from Azis for a vacation to the river surrounded by
hills. of course I really like it because I like to walk here I hear a lot of
stories about how to live in Loei, Thailand. the majority here are rice and
vegetable farmers because this area is cool and green. the motorbikes and cars
are very orderly. not even solid. the vehicle here is not as dense as in Jambi.
and can not be said to be jammed. that makes me comfortable being here. they
also maintain the authenticity of the forest. then the way they eat is
different. most of them eat using sticky rice which is eaten with grilled
chicken or grilled fish. very tasty. although a little difficult to find foods
that are classified. as very spicy like that in Indonesia. we were given free
service by the azis advisor. thank you.

The last day I teach.
that same day I had to give the best to my students and mentors and advisors
who had been guiding me at school. I also tried better than the previous
meeting. keep using the same stages and they still like and pay attention to me
in explaining. at the end of the learning I also told all my social media and
told them to write their messages and impressions to me while teaching here.
they are very antiquated to give the letter. some even write it in Indonesian. Remarkable.
August
30, 2018
After
finishing teaching and serving, it's time to prepare for leaving Thailand and
Loei. I get a lot of experience. starting from culture, education, economics
and so on. they also highly respect and preserve culture. a lot of memorial
days celebrated by the people in Thailand. starting from mother's day,
education day and international day. all presented with the cultural culture
displayed on the agenda. Loei dance area, Thailand is also displayed. and on
this date I was invited to go to enjoy Chiang Khan. a location for selling
souvenir centers that sell various kinds of souvenirs to be brought back to
Indonesia as supplies and memories for family, friends and lecturers at the
University of Jambi. there are clothes, key chains and bags that I deliberately
bought for friends in Indonesia. the trip to Chiang Khan was decorated with a
view on the roadside. lots of rice and hills lining up while welcoming us to
buy souvenirs. we are certain in a house called a museum. see ancient relics in
this area and join in dancing with them. we also wear Thai clothing for
dancing. this is how it turns out it feels like following a dance using
traditional clothes. it feels very happy. about an hour passed. we continued
the journey to the location of buying souvenirs. in short, we finished shopping
and headed for the inn. and at the same time packing goods for preparation for
returning to Indonesia.

Our
last day was at the same time parting with the president of Loei Rajabhat
University and the lecturer lecturer and all the friends here. it feels very
short time to talk. remembering when it arrived here it felt like going home.
but when approaching home time it feels like still wanting to survive. farewell
begins with a lunch with the president. but before that. we also attended the
farewell agenda at the school where we were teaching. it feels very sad to
leave this location. although there are not many stories because only one month
of service. but quite impressive. lunch is adorned with laughter releasing our
last seconds here. after that proceed to the meeting in the president's room to
convey what I got here. I also spoke up. and this is what I say. "thanks
to all from the beginning we met up to now. thank you for all the greetings you
gave to us. thank you for the amazing experience. this was the first time I was
present and went to the international world. I had to leave my family in
Indonesia. very sad and feel alone, as time goes by I feel the warmth of the
family here, education using complete facilities and learning methods that are
not boring makes me really want to go back to Indonesia and put it into
practice. ancestor, here I learned a lot of things, independence and discipline
I also got, thank you for picking us up in the morning to school, I understand
a lot of student characters here, this is a fortune given by God to me so I can
get here and meet o extraordinary people. not until here is our family. after
this we can still communicate through social media. and to exchange opinions
about education or otherwise we can also do it through social media. Once
again, thank you. and I am very happy to meet you. I hope there will be more
time for us to just tell stories. " that's what I say. I can't lie, I shed
tears. the meeting ended with the issuance of certificates and joint photos.
