the role of television to education in Indonesia



electronic device is a very much we meet today, either electronically all over the place there, at home, school, college, office, even on the highway. because, once a very rapid development of electronics.

But here I will not discuss all the electronics, however, I will discuss it more specifically. And here I will be more focus on one type of electronics that are often owned by people of Indonesia, namely television.
Television than as media entertainment and information can also be used as a medium of education. As revealed by Darwanto in this book. This is because, television has its own characteristics that can not be owned by other mass media. Audio visual characteristics were much more pronounced role in affecting the audience, so it can be utilized by the state in ensuring the success of development in the field of education through television programs as a means of support.

Television became the most effective media in the run or socialized government programs. Governments that want literate society, able to use television as a medium of learning through shared learning programs. As the former until now in Televisi Republik Indonesia (TVRI).
Moreover, the advantages government uses television media in disseminating the program is easy and cheap operating costs. Besides, did not take long. The government only needs to use or choose certain hours and then people will watch it anyway. This is often done by President Soeharto, Indonesia when he led with his New Order.

Thus, the television is not only a major capital in creating and facilitate government programs in education and development only. More than that, the television can also be used as a venue for "closer" the ruler and his subjects.


Because television has many advantages in the subsequent development it can affect the attitudes, behaviors and thought patterns. However, because of these advantages, the television also can lead to things that are not desirable.

Like, the death of a student in West Java a few months ago. Because it is often seen impressions smackdown-style violence and the like many children imitate and eventually lead to unlawful activity.

Not only that, since private television often show horror film genre with a bandage wrapped in religion, many people are fooled and even new styles fall into error. Many people trapped by the storyline is packaged in such a way that it becomes very beautiful kemusyikan impressed even as things of worship get the reward.

Terjerumusnya public to television because of this media using one-way communication. This resulted in the audience become the subject of the patient. Furthermore, penontong made passive and must accept what is aired by the television.

The impact of this all is, the audience is able to rebel against what is presented. Viewers like hypnotized, so what they did without the knowledge or control of common sense. Thus, the audience becomes lazy and uncreative.

Criticism for a book written by Darwanto this is television that there are now more educated than not educate. That is, the program served the private television shows in general are the same. Not far from the theme, young romance (or even still in high school), mysticism, horror, good boy vs. bad boy and so on.

Darwanto opinion about television as a medium of education is because the current research and television stations are still limited. Only TVRI and two private television (RCTI and SCTV). However, even so, this book can be used as the momentum of history that the first television can contribute something valuable to the nation of Indonesia. That is able to create a new society with a variety of events that presents a series of materials that support the education world.
