ISFiT 2011

2010-09-02T02:13:00.000-07:00

As we commit to you to provide information about study overseas and any international activites that you can join into them. We start first information with ISFiT.

What is ISFiT 2011?

Here it is...
ISFiT - The International Student Festival in Trondheim, Norway is the world’s largest student festival with a thematic focus. About 450 students from all over the world attend the festival. The themes have changed over the years, but have always been related to social and political topics with international relevance.
Do you remember Khaerul Umur? First class of CEC that went to Germeny last year? He attended a kind of even like ISFiT 2011. It was ISWI - International Student Week in Ilmenau, Germany.

World figures often attend ISFiT and past speakers include His Holiness the Dalai Lama, former Director-General of WHO Dr Gro Harlem Brundtland and Nobel Peace Prize Laureates Dr José Ramos-Horta and Professor Wangari Maathai. Using modern technology, both former US president Bill Clinton and Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Dr Desmond Tutu have relayed their thoughts about the global significance of ISFiT to plenum ceremonies at the festival.

As students are the future leaders of the world we believe that their voices should be heard and international networks established. Thus, the purpose of ISFiT is to be a meeting place for discussion and debate, an arena where ideas are born, friendships are made and valuable lessons are learned. The festival aims at fostering inspiration and being a starting point for international cooperation amongst students. ISFiT is a non-profit festival.

The ISFiT participants take part in different workshops, which highlight the festival theme in various ways. Several lectures and thematic meetings will be arranged, where well-known international speakers share their views with the participants and others. The ISFiT audience is also welcome to join a vast cultural programme of concerts, art exhibitions and performing arts.

In order to organize ISFiT, more than 350 students in Trondheim work voluntarily, making sure every detail goes as planned. ISFiT has been arranged in Trondheim, Norway every second year since 1990.

Financial Support

Don't worry about the financial. Actually ISFiT 2011 can offer financial support to selected students. So, if you make great aplication to send. Be confidence! you are one of selected student to attend ISFiT and get the financial support. Not only from ISFiT 2011, you can also send a proposal to your university and government.

Food and accommodation

As a participant at ISFiT 2011 there will be no expenses for food and accommodation. During your stay in Trondheim, you will be living with a host who will provide you with a bed and breakfast. Lunch and dinner will be served at the workshops free of charge.

Language

During the festival, English will be the working language. As a participant it is therefore important that you have sufficient knowledge of both oral and written English.

So, This is one of your way to growth your english!

Treasuring Education at Bali 2

2009-01-20T00:18:00.000-08:00

Salah satu materi yang di bahas dalam workshop

di Bali adalah Wellbeing, Change, and Education

yang disampaikan oleh Mr. Lyndon Baker dari

Darwin.

Terlihat Anggi, perwakilan dari PGSD UPI

Kampus Cibiru sedang menyampaikan cerita dari

kartu yang dia perolah.

Jadi gini, setiap orang diberi lima buah kartu yang gambarnya berlainan. Kemudian dari masing-

masing gambar kartu tersebut harus membuat suatu cerita.

Gampang kan? ga ada bedanya sama Cibiru English Club (CEC) di PGSD UPI Kampus Cibiru.

Bedanya tuh liat, yang ngliatin bule-bule.

"pipit... kamu nakal ya! yang lain diskusi ko kamu narsis gethoo..."

One Day in A Class

2009-01-17T04:58:00.000-08:00

One day in a computer class, David, our teacher, asked the students to discuss a task in pairs. So, I asked the guy who was sitting beside me to work with me.

Before doing the task, he asked me, "Hi, what's your name?"

"I'm Winti", I replied.

"Wendy?" he tried to make sure.

"No, Winti. W I N T I", I told him.

"Oh...Winti! You know, your name is just like one of our Prime Ministers", he said.

" Oh... Really? where do you come from?" I was surprised

"PNG, Papua New Guinea", he replied.
"Yeah, but now,he is not the Prime Minister anymore because he lost at the last election", he explained. " And where do you come from?" he asked me.

"I'm from Indonesia", I answered.

"Oh, I thought you're Philippines", he said.

"No, I'm Indonesian, I said, and you are....."

"Oh, I'm Kingston", he replied

"Sorry?"

"Kingston, K I N G S T O N"

"Oh... I see. You know, your name is just like one of my USB Flash Drive!"

TREASURING EDUCATION AT BALI

2009-01-17T04:33:00.000-08:00

Mungkin sudah telat kalo saya posting ini sekarang...
Kalo ada yang bilang Bali is beautiful island, dia ga bohong. Memang benar!
Tapi buat kita bertiga (Elung, Pipit, Anggi), kita belum bisa merasakan semua keindahannya... kayaknya hanya 0,1 % kami bisa menimati keindahan pulau ini.

Iyalah, selama lima hari disana, kita lebih banyak belajar daripada liburan. Karena memang tujuan kita ke Bali adalah untuk menghadiri Treasuring Education yang diselenggarakan oleh Time To Shine. Bukan untuk sekedar Vacation.

Jadi, waktu kita untuk jalan-jalan lebih sedikit. Jangan kaget kalo teman-teman nanya sama kita tentang Tanah Lot, Sanur, Ubud, dsb kita bertiga cuma bengong. karena memang kita belum bisa kesana.

Jadi, saya akan tulis disini tentang pengalaman kita di workshop bersama bule-bule dari Australia.
Sebagian besar dari mereka memang seorang guru, Secondary School. Mungkin kalo di Indonesia semacam SMP-SMA. Dan tentunya selama workshop berlangsung, pengantarnya bahasa Inggris.
Mereka kaget lho pas kita cerita, di Indonesia kita ngajar untuk 80-45 siswa. Karena di Aussie paling banyak 25-27 siswa dalam satu kelas. Untuk bahasa, mereka nggak terdengar inggris british atau american. Mereka menggunakan Inggris Australia, dan itu lebih asing kita dengarkan daripada British atau American.
Tapi jangan salah, mereka semua baik hati dan tidak sombong. Kalo kita ngomong terus kita bilang "Sorry, my english is not good" mereka bilang "No, your English is good".
Banyak sesi-sesi yang kita ikuti di sana, diantaranya Multiple Intellegences; Songwriting; Wellbeing, Change, Education; The Golden Frame; The Power of Choise, The Future is Not to be found, but to be Created; Winning Secrets with People.

To be Continued...

e-Learning

2009-01-08T01:13:00.000-08:00

Untuk yang pertama, pertanyaannya...

Kemukakan pendapat tentang penggunaan storytelling dalam pengajaran bahasa inggris, apakah bermanfaat atau tidak? Jika bermanfaat mengapa? Jika tidak mengapa?

Ok, pertanyaan selanjutnya menyusul ya...

WELCOME TO MELBOURNE

2009-01-03T04:06:00.000-08:00

Dear Cibiru English Concentration Students,
HALOOOOOO.......
How's the life going on?
Finally I'm in Melbourne. It's kinda perfect city to live in. Well, I'm not exactly staying in the 'city'. I'm staying in a suburb called Clayton. My house is quite near from campus only 10 minutes walk. So far, I haven't had any activity at campus. It is closed until the 4th January 2009. Therefore I spent my time by roaming around the city and some surrounding areas. Trying the buses and trains here. Those are quite comfortable public transportation, well-at least,if we compared to the ones we have in Indonesia.
I also want to suggest you to update the blog periodically, so that everyone can get the more fresh, different and newer things.

OK, that's all for now. I'll catch you up with another experiences that I can share with you.

Miss you Guys,
Best Regards,

Winti Ananthia

ENGLISH CONSENTRATION

2008-10-26T23:44:00.000-07:00

Tahun ajaran 2008/ 2009 ini, PGSD UPI Kampus Cibiru pertama kali membuka konsentrasi baru. Yup, konsentrasi Bahasa Inggris. Ini juga kali pertama dalam sejarah UPI. Jadi satu-satunya konsentrasi bahasa inggris ya di Cibiru ini.
Eit.. walaupun masih baru, tapi jangan salah. Mahasiswa yang masuk konsentrasi ini bukan sembarang mahasiswa. Dari awal mereka sudah melalui tahap seleksi yang "super ketat". Konsentrasi ini diasuh oleh Mrs. Winti. Beliau semangat sekali loh membimbing anak-anak bahasa inggris. Dari mulai ngajarin tensis sampai change chair!.
Belajar di kelas bahasa inggris sangat menyenangkan. Sampe mahasiswa dari konsentrasi yang lain banyak yang bilang "konsentrasi bahasa inggris belajar nyanyi aja ya?". Sebenarnya engga juga, kita tidak hanya melulu bernyanyi, banyak juga materi yang kami dapatkan, seperi karekteristik anak-anak SD kelas rendah dan kelas tinggi, perbedaan antara keduanya, dan tentunya metode pembelajaran bahasa inggris untuk anak-anak SD.
