It's Time for Homework to Resign

Education is the most basic human needs and by the development of the times, evolved into a prestigious education. Speaking of education, indirectly related to the main points of the process of teaching and learning that is school. In the classroom the teacher has a different way to make the students understand and master the material, one of which is homework.

Of course, the teacher gives homework to students with a specific purpose, one of which is to assist students in mastering the material provided by the teacher. During the hour lessons are often some of the students are not listening intently and even worse they sleepy or fall asleep in class. Seeing that some teachers might be just ignores it, not because they do not know and do not want to know, but there is a separate record on the issue, and some are directly give punishment. That's why the teachers think that homework is a solution to fix this problem, here is expected that students have a desire to master the material taught. In addition to the homework, you can see the difference between students who are diligent and lazy students doing homework. Students who have completed their homework will feel calm, and felt ready to go to school, without worry. It is a satisfaction and pleasure for a student. If students cannot do their homework by their self, then they will automatically ask their friends, parents, or their senior in school, so students are able to interact and build relationships with other people. Moreover, if it can make student have a group to solve their problem in learning.

However, in some contexts, homework can be something very difficult. One is too much homework given by the teacher. With so much homework, students are difficult to focus to homework because pressed for time to finish the other homework. Sometimes teachers give homework to the quantity but less quality. It is a huge waste of time that should be used to develop the talent of the students. In addition, because too much homework, students often sleep in the morning to finish their homework. Those that is not able to finish it at home, at work instead of cheating by school friends. 

Homework is important and useful, but too much homework can be especially difficult for students, moreover if the homework is less quality but pro quantity. Perhaps it is time for teachers to change the method of homework with new fresh method that more effective to make students master the material, such as debates. Whatever it is its form, students always try to do their best.

Bring Balanced to the World

Indonesia is known as the Asian’s largest archipelagic nation which uses democracy system. Democracy means of the people, by the people and for the people. As a democratic country Indonesia promotes the interests of its people, restore the decision into the hands of the people, and subject to majority.

But nowadays, the meaning of democracy increasingly misused by the people and leaders of the State. With the excuse of 'democracy', many of the people who staged a demonstration. As for the leaders, they are competing to get the highest power through society vote. A concrete example can be seen in the general election. No question, it is clear that there is a general election had been unfair, whether selection of instruments of government, village, or other device. Vote less, play back, and etc. are coloring elections in our country. This happens because the goals and the way from the beginning were wrong. The purpose of the candidate is power, and the way in which politics is black.

Unlike what happened in SMAN 10 Malang (Sampoerna Academy) International Boarding School. Besides academic education we also learn about leadership. Not just theory, practice real leadership applied in school and dormitory life. Selection committee chairman and chairman of the student council is one obvious example.

Elections conducted in a transparent and really ‘luberjurdil’. Campaign carried out is really a big influence whether or not a candidate was selected, because the candidates' campaign the vision and mission and are required to answer questions that given by public. From the answers we can look how wise enough them in response to a problem. From here we can see a side of 'democracy', where people have the right to speak. After that the public has the freedom to choose their own choice, without previous authorization or 'bribes' of the candidate. Furthermore, counting of votes is done in front of the school, so transparency became clear. In addition, if there is a discrepancy in the committee did not decide by their self but return the decision to the school society. Finally, after knowing who the candidate with the most votes, the elected candidate and the other candidate shaking hands with each other and encourage each other, it shows that any candidate who is not elected as the chairman can tolerant. That picture of the general election is in SMAN 10 Malang (Sampoerna Academy) International Boarding School.

The candidate got question from audience and should answer it before the time over

How do you think about image above? Whether elections are run in our school is very good and fair?. Compared with the general election in society, elections in SMAN 10 Malang more structured and fair, without any competition that characterizes dirty, and leaders who thoroughly deserved as a role model. Do you know about the animated film The Avatar? Main character in the film, the Avatar is a figure that is believed to bring balanced to the world. Likewise with our leaders, who should be able to bring balance in this country, especially in terms of the balance of justice. Therefore, if we want to have a fair leader, choose them in a fair manner as well. If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader-John Quincy Adams
