Putera Sampoerna Foundation Annual Report 2011 - Fostering the Seeds of Hope
Indonesia’s consistent economic growth as the world itself shrinks and economic linkages intertwine, not only in the region but also worldwide, is opening up a wide range of opportunities for economic partnerships and cooperation.
Putera Sampoerna Foundation has set systems and networks into place nationwide to facilitate the channeling of Corporate Social Responsibility and other
assistance from its domestic and international donor partners into effective, sustainable programs to empower individuals and communities toward enabling Indonesia to embrace the challenges and opportunities of global participation.
Since its beginning, Putera Sampoerna Foundation strives to provide access to and improve the education quality through innovative ways.
One of the ways is by establishing School Development Outreach (SDO), an education development services provider, which aims to advance standards and improve the quality of schools and individuals in order for Indonesia to meet the challenges of global participation.
SDO impacts to today’s education improvement came from over a decade long of best practices and lessons learnt.
Here is the journey of SDO from the beginning until today, and this is just
the beginning of more SDO stories in the future.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

Sampoerna School Of Education
Hunting for the best talents for Indonesia’s future teachers
Our future teacher candidates posing together after their social project
In this quarter, Sampoerna School of Education (SSE) is actively shortlisted 1,200 scholarship applicants to be the first batch of
students at SEE. These candidates were put to the test through SSE rigorous selection process that included psychological profiling,
academic potential test, panel interview and focus group discussion. The tests aimed at selecting only the best for the program.
Out of 1,200 applications, 400 potential scholarship recipients were selected. They came from all over Indonesia and were asked
to undergo social activities in Depok and Plumpang. Home visits to the homes of short listed candidates were then conducted. This
is to determine the candidates’ true need for financial aid.
The SSE aims to prepare a new generation of Indonesian teachers with the attitudes, skills and knowledge to meet Indonesia’s
21st century education challenges and opportunities. This will be achieved by selecting and enrolling the highest quality of indi-
viduals, with sound academic and personal qualities to set high standards as future leaders in their profession. Graduates will be
equipped with the highest order of teaching skills and quality practices that will make them in high demand for both their personal
attributes and their professional teaching qualities.
It is planned that in October this year, 100 selected scholars will enjoy 4-years-study program at SSE where they will go through
education process, practical work and research program. The SSE graduates are prepared to become professional teacher who
are able to meet the needs of schools with international standards.

Dreams of our teachers of tomorrow
“To become a teacher noble”
Andi Firmansyah comes from a simple family. For 17 years he lived in a rented house
in an area called Duri Kosambi, Cengkareng with his mother and his little sibbling. His
father passed away six years ago and since then on, his mother worked as a masseuse
and at a local laundry to fulfill family needs and to pay for Andi and his sibbling’s
schooling. The latter did not continue on to high school and instead helped earn extra
income to ease his mother’s burden.
In school, Andi excelled in his study and had always received scholarships. Besides
focusing on school work, Andi made use of his spare time by becoming a counselor
for OSN participants at his school. Currently he is a volunteer teacher at the school
for street children. Andi’s academic, organizational and social achievements is very
outstanding.
This is shown through several awards that Andi has received, such as:
- Third Place National Flag Bearing (Paskibra) Competition, 2007
- Top-100 at the National Science Olympics (Olimpiade Sains Nasional/OSN)
in the field of Physics
- The Organizing Committee for the Monitoring of the National Elections 2009
His experiences as a counselor for OSN participants and as a volunteer teacher at the
school for street children have strengthened his will to become a teacher. This is what
led Andi to enroll at The Sampoerna School of Education majoring in Mathematics. He
also shows this strong will by opting to enroll to the Sampoerna school of Education
rather then enrolling to the Department of Aeronautics at ITB, in which he was ac-
cepted to through the 2009 national exams (SMPTN).
“I have a strong will to become a teacher because I consider the work as something
noble. My other dream is to make my mother proud and happy. I want to make my
mother and sister happy. I pledge that I can one day realize their dream of owning a
house”, says Andi.
“A dream come true to become a qualified teacher”
Endang Sriwahyuni was born as a second of two children from a modest family living
in Sumberrejo, Kotzigajah, Lampung Tengah. Both of her parents as well as her eldest
sibling work as a farm labor. Their very limited education inspired Endang to reach for
the highest education level possible.
Her limitations did not discourage her in reaching achievements, particularly in English
studies. Several accomplishments made include:
• First place in the Writing of English Scientific Paper 2008, DCC Bandar Lampung
• Third place in the English Debate Competition in Lampung, SOSEC EC of UNILA
• Third place in the English Speech Competition, Teknokrat 2008
• First place in the English Debate Competition, MKKS Lampung Tengah
“Attending the Sampoerna School of Education is a dream come true that will enable
me to become a qualified teacher, ” Endang said on her dream of becoming a high
quality English teacher. She believes that going to the SSE and taking English major can
truly make her dream come true.

PARTNERS’ HIGHLIGHTS 13
Support for SF’s “A Dollar for Scholar” Program
Aston Bandung Hotel & Residence and Sampoerna Foundation
(SF) launched “A Dollar for Scholar” Program on Friday 1 May
2009. Through this program, every guest at the Aston Bandung
Hotel & Residence will be approached to spare USD 1 or any
equivalent amount, dedicated to students in primary to high
schools who have good academic achievements yet could not
afford further studies.
Executive Assistant Manager Aston Bandung Hotel & Residence
Dino Leonardi, explained that the program would start immedi-
ately after the launch. “The collected donation from the guests
will be handed to Sampoerna Foundation to be distributed to
deserving students,” said Leonardi. He also said that as a start,
this program would be held for the whole one year.
At the launch, SF Public Relations Officer Agatha Simanjuntak
explained that SF has been partnering with the Ministry of Edu-
cation to obtain student’s information who are deserving of
scholarships across Indonesia. “In our collaboration with Aston,
the donation gathered will be given to underprivileged students
around Bandung and West Java,” added Agatha.
Meanwhile, Director of Sales Sampoerna Foundation Vira Soekardiman said that across Indonesia, SF has donated around
33.000 scholarships to underprivileged students who have good academic achievements. “Most of them who have been dropped
out from their schools, are now able to continue their studies again,” said Vira.

”As a student myself, I believe that education is important for the nation’s development. Hopefully, in this second album, songs
like ”Meraih Mimpi”, “Melangkah Lagi” and “Ayo, Come On” would inspire those who are less fortunate to keep having the faith
and spirit to continue with their studies as well as encourage all young people in Indonesia to help their friends who have limited
resources”said Gita.
Toto Widjojo added, “Sony Music is proud to present the album which supports education in Indonesia. I hope all music lovers
and the people of Indonesia would appreciate this album so that Gita Gutawa’s goal to help poor teenagers stay in school could
be accomplished”.

On 13 May 2009, MRA Media Group signed a Letter of Agree-
ment with Sampoerna Foundation (SF) as part of their support
for improving both access and quality of education. This agree-
ment continues our partnership with MRA Media Group, one of
the biggest radio networks in Indonesia since 2008.
Though their network, MRA Media Group as SF’s media part-
ner will take part in generating public awareness on the impor-
tance of education. In addition, MRA Group will support SF to
socialize our initiatives.
“Our working inspiration is “Touch the Heart”; this means in
everything we do, we must add positive value to everyone’s
hearts, especially our listeners. I believe that partnering with
SF will bring this aspiration into reality” said Hario Wijanarko
- Director of MRA Media Group
With this partnership, our programs and initiatives will be
broadcasted through radios under the MRA Media network:
90.4 Cosmopolitan FM, 101.4 Trax FM, 87.6 Hard Rock FM,
and 89.6 FM I Radio.
