Indonesia Plans Centralized Studios to Support Remote Learning
Prabowo said this facility would be staffed with Indonesia's best teachers.
President Prabowo Subianto announced that the Indonesian government intends to establish centralized studios to facilitate remote teaching and learning. These studios will be operated by selected teachers, who will deliver classes online. President Prabowo emphasized that the facilities will be accessible to thousands of schools across the nation.
He elaborated that the program will encompass various subjects, with a specific focus on foreign languages. The languages that Indonesian students will be expected to master include English, Mandarin, Arabic, Japanese, Korean, Spanish, Russian, and French, starting from primary education. Prabowo asserted that by the first grade of elementary school, students must begin conversing in a foreign language, as young children are believed to have an easier time absorbing new information.
As part of the initiative, the government plans to distribute three additional screens, or interactive flat panels, to each school in Indonesia. President Prabowo aspires for every educational institution to have a minimum of four classrooms equipped with these smart interactive screens, enabling teachers to access the curriculum or educational content repeatedly.
This approach allows students to review lessons as many times as necessary, either at home or within the school environment.
