Two years ago I had a chance to fly in an aeroplane. This was my first flight so I was very nervous. I feared that sorts of accidents might happen on the way. I thought that the engine might burst and come down with a crash. Sometimes I was afraid that the pilot might make a mistake and I had to pay for it with my life.
Soon after I had seated myself there, the sound of the engines rose to a roar as moved off, and gradually its speed. Then it was with a feeling of surprise I noticed that the ground was at some distance beneath me. As the plane went higher and higher up in the air, a strange sensation ran through my body. Soon, the motion was easy. The fear which overtook me at the time of flight was no more in my heart. Now I was quite bold in the air.
This did not mean that I felt the worse for it. I felt as comfortable in the aeroplane as I used to feel in my car. I felt no sense of insecurity. I did not occur to me even for a moment that my life could ever be in danger. The machine flew as smoothly in the air as a boat glides down a peaceful stream.
When the plane was at sufficient height, I looked through the pane of the window. The earth seemed to be “falling off” from us. The big building looked like a small spots of beauty. The sky was clear. Everything looked new and strange.
The most beautiful thing was the scene around me. I saw nothing but was surrounded by pure air. Occasionally I saw clouds floating here and there.
We flew over the roofs of many houses. At one place we were very near the roof and I felt that we were going to touch it. After flying for a long time, we finally touch the earth. The journey was so pleasant and comfortable that I could not forget it.

Niagara Falls is the most famous water fall in the world because of its beauty and immense size. Niagara Falls is part of the Niagara River. The Niagara is a short river, just 35 miles (56 kilometers) long. It connects Lake Erie and Lake Ontario in eastern North America. East of the river is the United States. West of the river is Canada. About halfway between the two lakes, a sharp drop in the river makes Niagara Falls.
Niagara Falls is actually two giant waterfalls and one smaller one. Goat Island, in New York state, lies between the two main falls. One big waterfall, called American Falls, is on the U.S. side of the river. American Falls has a fairly straight edge. The waterfall is 1,075 feet (328 meters) wide and 182 feet (55 meters) high. A small part of American Falls, located near Goat Island, is called Bridal Veil Falls.
The biggest of the two giant waterfalls is in Canada and is known as the Canadian Falls. It’s also called the Horseshoe Falls because of its horseshoe shape. The curved edge of the Canadian Falls measures 2,200 feet (670 meters) wide, and the water drops 187 feet (57 meters). The Canadian Falls carries nine times more water than the American Falls.
Niagara Falls is a popular tourist attraction. Millions of people come each year to watch the spectacular waterfalls. You can take a boat trip to see the falls from below. You can also watch from observation decks above or beside the falls. You can even enter the Cave of the Winds, a path that takes you to the base of Bridal Veil Falls. Visitors must wear bright-yellow rain jackets to stay dry.
Niagara Falls makes an enormous, ground-shaking roar and a huge cloud of water mist. Rainbows shine through the mist. At night, the falls are lit with colored lights, creating a brilliant display.

Ayunara Bahar Comment Artikel Guru abad 21

Tugas guru itu kompleks, menyeluruh, tidak hanya mengajar atau menyampaikan materi di kelas saja. Guru memiliki tugas dari tugas mendidik sampai dengan mengevaluasi pembelajaran. Karenanya guru mesti memiliki keterampilan yang mumpuni sebagai senjata apalagi dalam lingkungan abad 21 seperti saat ini.  Seperti kita ketahui abad 21 dikenal sebagai abad digital yang mengutamakan penerapan teknologi di bidang apapun demikian halnya dalam bidang pendidikan.

Ilustrasi gambar

Nah, berkaitan dengan keterampilan guru pada abad 21 diatas, berikut saya rangkumkan beberapa skill yang mesti dimiliki guru untuk diterapkan di kelas.

1. Membuat Video Pembelajaran
Salah satu keterampilan penting yang mesti dikuasai oleh guru abad 21 adalah kemampuan dalam mengedit, membuat, mengolah dan memanfaatkan video interaktif. Guru mesti mampu menguasai keterampilan ini. Teman- teman guru dapat memanfaatkan fitur- fitur video yang disediakan secara luas di website seperti Blubbr, YouTube video editor,  Blubbr, Teachem, TED Ed, Edpuzzle dan lainnya.

2. Membuat Website
Blog website bukanlah hal yang baru. Blog website adalah sarana untuk menumpahkan isi pikiran kita saja namun sebagai wadah juga untuk membagikan informasi kepada pembacanya. Guru bisa menuliskan  materi, pemberian tugas bahkan menuliskan pengalaman sebagai motivasi yang sangat berguna untuk keterlibatan siswa dalam pembelajaran melalui blog website. Guru bisa memanfaatkan platform blog seperti Blogger, Edublog, WordPress, Kidblog, Wikispaces, dan Weebly. 

3. Membuat Kuis Online
Kuis dalam pembelajaran akan membuat peserta didik kita menjadi lebih kreatif dan menjadikan pembelajaran menjadi tidak membosankan. Teman- teman guru bisa mencoba beberapa website yang menyediakan fitur kuis ini seperti Testmoz, Quizalize, FlipQuiz, Riddle, dan QuizBean.  

4. Memanfaatkan Learning Management System (LMS)
Learning Management System (LMS) menjadi sangat populer penggunaannya akhir- akhir ini. Penggunaan LMS dapat mencakup semua kebutuhan pembelajaran mulai dari penyampaian materi secara daring, sampai dengan pemberian tugas dan kuis dapat ditampung melalui fitur platform LMS. Beberapa LMS yang sangat populer digunakan saat ini adalah seperti Moodle, Schoology, Edmodo, dan sebagainya.

5. Membuat Digital Portofolio
Dalam dunia pendidikan, portofolio berisikan berbagai hasil pekerjaan, tugas, dan juga nilai yang ditujukan untuk memberi gambaran tentang perkembangan belajar dan prestasi siswa. Bila sebelumnya kita masih menyuruh siswa mengumpulkan semua bentuk portofolionya secara konvensional, Dalam abad teknologi sekarang ini, Digital portofolio merupakan langkah yang tepat dalam menghimpun semua portofolio siswa kita. Selain lebih sederhana dan aman,  digital portofolio juga memudahkan kita untuk mengecek satu persatu portofolio dari peserta didik kita. Beberapa situs yang bisa kita coba seperti Google Sites, Weebly, Pathbrite, dan Silk.

5. Membuat Presentasi

Membuat presentasi dengan powerpoint adalah hal yang biasa. Namun dalam hal ini, kita akan lebih mengembangkan keterampilan membuat presentasi kita yaitu dengan membuat presentasi yang menarik lagi dengan berbasis internet. Kita bisa memanfaatkan beberapa fitur yang tersedia melalui website- website tertentu misalnya Google Slides, Haiku Deck, Prezi, Zoho, dan sebagainya. 

Demikian paparan beberapa keterampilan guru abad 21. Semoga tulisan ini bisa memberikan pengalaman baru bagi rekan- rekan guru.

Semoga bermanfaat.

Ayunara Bahar Comment Info Kuliah SBMPTN SBMPTN 2019 UTBK SBMPTN 2019

Ada yang berbeda dari pelaksanaan SBMPTN 2019 mendatang tentang regulasi dan tata cara seperti pada perubahan penyelenggara, model tes, pelaksanaan tes, materi, dan daya tampung. Melalui perubahan ini diharapkan pelaksanaan bisa lebih baik lagi pada SBMPTN 2019.

SBMPTN 2019

SBMPTN merupakan salah satu jalur untuk masuk ke perguruan tinggi negeri selain jalur lainnya. Jalur ini memang dipandang jalur yang paling sulit karena menguji kemampuan peserta didik melalui ujian. Persaingan pun semakin ketat dengan adanya regulasi baru ini. Nah, apa saja yang mesti dipersiapkan menjelang pendaftaran SBMPTN tahun 2019, berikut beberapa tips yang bisa membantu.

1. Cari Informasi SBMPTN
Hal pertama sebelum mendaftar SBMPTN adalah dengan mencari informasi pendaftarannya secara lengkap. Website yang relevan untuk pendaftaran SBMPTN adalah melalui http://sbmptn.ac.id. melalui website tersebut, adik- adik bisa mencermati semua informasi baik syarat dan ketentuan, prosedur pendaftaran, jenis ujian, biaya, jadwal seleksi dan sebagainya.

2. Cermati Jadwal

Hal yang sangat penting dalam sukses SBMPTN adalah mencermati jadwal proses pendaftarannya. Berikut rangkuman jadwal pada proses seleksi SBMPTN tahun 2019 ini,

• Ujian Tes Berbasis Komputer (UTBK) : 30 Maret – 26 Mei 2019
• Pengumuman Hasil UTBK : 10 April – 2 Juni 2019
• Pendaftaran  10 – 24 Juni 2019

4. Cermati Jurusan yang akan diambil
Setelah melalui tahapan pengumuman UTBK, adik- adik akan melalui proses pendaftaran. Inilah waktunya memilih jurusan sesuai dengan grade nilai adik- adik. pastikan pilih jurusan yang berprospek cerah kedepannya. Jangan hanya asal memilih jurusan kuliah karena akan berakibat buruk kedepannya.  

5. Berdoa

Berdoa adalah hal terakhir yang sangat penting, karena dengan berdoa, kita meminta pada Tuhan agar diberikan petunjuk pada SBMPTN 2019.
