Essay : Pengertian, Bagian, Dan Contohnya Dalam Bahasa Inggris
Essay : Pengertian, Bagian, Dan Contohnya Dalam Bahasa Inggris
Sebuah pendapat dapat kita tuangkan dalam bentuk lisam maupiun tulisan. Dalam bentuk lisan biasnya kita dapat langsung mengutarakannya hal ini dapat kita lakukan dalam forum seperti diskusi maupun acara bercakap ria. Sedangkan dalam bentuk tulisan kita dapat menuangkan pendapat kita menggunakan media tulis biasa maupun virtual (media sosia).

Pengertian Essay (esai)
Apa yang dimaksud dengan essay? yang dimaksud dengan Esssay adalah ekspresi dari opini seseorang terhadap sebuah hal. Jadi essay sesungguhnya sangat berbeda dengan artikel ilmiah atau sekadar opini eksposure (laporan faktual). Perpaduan antara fakta dengan imajinasi, antara pengetahuan dengan perasaan membuat essay berbeda dibanding jenis tulisan lainnya.
Sebuah essay selayaknya dapat menghantarkan pembacanya untuk memahami persoalan dengan cara yang tidak njelimet dan (kadang) bernuansa santai, tetapi tetap sarat makna. Secara singkat dapat diartikan sebagai suatu tulisan yang menggambarkan opini penulis tentang subyek tertentu yang coba di nilainya.

High School and College
High school students are usually eager to graduate and continue their study in college. However, most of the time college students dream of being a high school student back again. “If I could just go back to high school again” is a common expression heard especially in the first semesters of college. What makes both high school students and college students think. What are the differences between learning in high school and learning in college? Some of the many aspects of differences in learning in high school and learning in college are: the responsibility, the teachers, and the tests.
The first different aspect in high school and college is the responsibility. In high school, your time is structured by the school. We just need to proceed from one class to another of hours of learning in classes, and the classes are arranged for you. We will be guided and reminded of our responsibilities in learning – taking the tests, doing homework and tasks, etc. There is not much we need to worry besides getting good scores. Meanwhile, in college, we manage your own time. We often have time between classes; class times vary throughout the day and evening. We arrange your own schedule in consultation with your adviser. We are expected to take responsibility for what we do and don’t do, as well as for the consequences of your decisions. In short words, there is no one taking care of your responsibilities except yourself.
The second different aspect in high school and college is the teachers. Teachers in high school will usually take care of us, remind we of our tasks and homework, provide you with information and learning material, and are often available for conversation before, during, or after the class. Meanwhile, lecturers or professors in college are different. They don’t remind you of our tasks and homework, because it is our responsibility to do so. They will reference the learning material, but it is not their responsibility to provide us with information, instead, we are the one who need to collect information we need. Lecturers in college are usually hardly available for conversations out of class except you make an appointment with them beforehand.
The third different aspect in high school and college is the tests. In high school, tests are frequent and cover small amount of material. Make up tests are available, and if you get low score at a test, we can have a remedial test. Meanwhile in college, tests are infrequent and they cover big amount of material. There will only be two to three tests for one subject in one semester, and our scores matter a lot. There will not be any make up tests unless we need to request one. Furthermore, there will not be a remedial test if we get low score. Instead, you will need to fight for the upcoming test or exam to better the score.
Provided by the differences in learning in high school and learning in college, it can be concluded that learning in college requires more attention and responsibility of the student. Not that learning in high school does not require them, it does, but in a more flexible way. Both high school students and college students need to focus on their study and follow the way of the institution they are in, in order to succeed in their study.
Itulah tadi penjelasan mengenai essay meliputi pengertian, bagian dan contohnya dalam bahasa Inggris. Semoga materi tentang essay yang disampaikan pada kesempatan kali ini dapat bermanfaat dan dapat dijadikan referensi belajar bahasa Inggris bagi sobat sekalian.

CONTOH ESSAY , Joy and Sorrow Online Learning during the Corona Pandemic
Joy and Sorrow Online Learning during the Corona Pandemic
The Corona pandemic or coronavirus disease 2019 (covid 19) provides many valuable lessons in every aspect of life. Most of the employees carry out work from home (WFH) and students also “move” learning activities at home, online. This is all in line with the government's efforts to reduce the impact of the spread of the coronavirus. And as has been determined, this home learning activity will continue until next year.
The transfer of learning activities from school to home, as an effort to maintain social distancing, inevitably makes parents have a new role, namely as impromptu teachers. That means parents are at the forefront of guiding the learning process until this pandemic ends.
With all the limitations that exist, it is not surprising that parents encounter many obstacles in its implementation. Just look, most of the social media pages upload the joys and sorrows of parents who become impromptu teachers to guide their children to study in their homes.
Not only the heart screams or sorrow felt by parents who become impromptu teachers at home, but not a few also rejoice to be impromptu teachers guiding their children to learn from home. So, do you want to know what are the ups and downs of learning online during the corona pandemic?
Not all parents are ready to become online learning guides for their children. There have been many positive responses, ranging from psychological closeness to children because they directly guide the online learning process; knowing the academic development of children and fostering togetherness and building good communication in the home environment.
For parents who usually budget for catering for children's school supplies, this time they can save budget to be allocated to other needs.
Even so, not a few also experienced several obstacles as long as they became guides in the implementation of online learning at home, starting from external and internal constraints.
External constraints are mostly dominated by the internet network which is not supportive or the condition is slow. Even in some areas, many do not yet have the supporting tools, such as gadgets, so they are forced to rely on internet cafes to carry out online learning. Well, not a few of them ended up playing online games.
There are also many internal obstacles, ranging from parents who admit difficulties because they do not have mastery of school subject matter to less disciplined children, because they think at home means holidays.
Besides, changes in children's moods in online learning are another important thing that needs to be maintained. Because, too many school assignments that cause children's boredom. Meanwhile, learning with this method requires fast catching power.
Besides, in terms of teaching staff, for example, providing online learning material is considered more difficult than face to face in class. Teachers find it difficult to invite students to be active, communicative, even in discussion rooms that are deliberately held.
Well, how about you? What's good, studying at school or studying at home online?
CONTOH ESSAY , The Effectiveness Of Online Learning In Teaching And Learning Activities To Achieve 21st-Century Skill Goals
The Effectiveness Of Online Learning In Teaching And
Learning Activities
To Achieve 21st-Century Skill Goals
By: Aris Priyanto, S.T, M.M.
Teacher of Indonesian SILN School in Makkah
The
increasing number of positive cases in Indonesia due to COVID-19 has made the
Ministry of Education and Culture (Kemendikbud) recommend online learning as an
effort to reduce the spread of the virus.
Even
though there are several well-known schools and universities in Indonesia that
are ready to do so, the presence of COVID-19 shows the unpreparedness of far
more educational institutions in Indonesia in implementing an online learning
system. For example, the use of online learning technology is still dominated
by schools and universities in big cities because of the financial capacity and
availability of digital learning systems that are better than small schools and
universities in rural areas.
Problems
arise
The
online learning implementation that has been running for several months has
generally run smoothly. However, over time many problems have emerged. Among
them are too many teacher assignments to complain about quotas and internet
networks.
Of
course, it would be unwise to immediately blame the teachers. In an emergency
situation, the teacher at that time had to act quickly so that learning could
be effective. Cellphones, which were originally only a medium of communication,
now have multiple functions. Included in providing material and assignments a
very short duration.
Appreciation
deserves to be given to teachers, schools, and students because they can adapt
quickly. However, over time all parties need to evaluate online learning so
that its goals can be achieved optimally.
Principles
of Online Learning
In
terms of the process, actually, this online learning model has been regulated
in Permendikbud no. 22 of 2016 concerning Process Standards with the following
principles:
1.
From
the students are notified towards the students to find out
2.
From
the teacher as the only source of learning to learn based on various learning
resources
3.
From
a textual approach to a process as a strengthening of the use of a scientific
approach
4.
From
content-based learning to competency-based learning
5.
From
partial learning to integrated learning
6.
From
learning that emphasizes single answers to learning with answers that are
multi-dimensional in truth
7.
From
verbalism learning to applicative skills
8.
Improvement
and balance between physical skills (hard skills) and mental skills (soft
skills)
9.
Learning
that prioritizes the culture and empowerment of students as lifelong
learners
10.
Learning
that applies values by giving an example (ing ngarso sung tulodo), the
building will (ing madyo mangun karso), and developing the creativity of
students in the learning process (tut wuri handayani)
11.
Learning
that takes place at home in schools and in the community
12.
Learning
that applies the principle that anyone is a teacher, anyone is a student, and
anywhere is a class.
13.
Use
of information and communication technology to increase the efficiency and
effectiveness of learning
14.
Recognition
of individual differences and cultural backgrounds of students.
If
the learning principles above are aligned with the 4 pillars of education
compiled by UNESCO, namely Learning to Know (learning to know), Learning to Do
(learning to do something), Learning to Be (learning to be something), and
Learning to Live Together (learning to live together), now is the most
appropriate opportunity to rearrange the direction of our education world which
has strayed far from our goals.
The
world of education must again teach how to learn (Learning How to Learn), not
Learning What to Learn (learning about something). All of this is reflected in
the content of this online learning where initially the teachers are still
struggling with content or material that is made to inform students rather than
leaving them to find out for themselves.
With
the internet, students can learn to know, learn to do, learn to be something,
and learn to live together with a very different approach in the pre-internet
era where teachers were the only source of learning. Educators simply facilitate
how students can find out reliable learning sources, not hoaxes, and not just
the opinion of someone whose credibility is still in doubt.
If
educators and parents understand that these skills are needed to be developed
in students in facing the challenges in the 21st century, then the learning
model can be directed to lead there. For example, during this period of study
at home students can be directed to look for solutions to problems related to
Covid-19. The solution can be in terms of health, food, social, economy, and so
on.
The
solution offered must have a strong theoretical basis and not just a wild idea;
this is where the students will learn to find out. These solutions must be
worked out in groups even if they do not meet face to face. The solutions
offered must be presented in the form of a video and uploaded to social media
such as Youtube, Facebook, Linkedin, Line, or others. The rating will be based
on the number of views (how many times it has been watched), how many thumbs up
(likes), and how many comments/interactions that arise from the upload.
We
will all be surprised by the creativity and innovation of the next generation
of the nation, which so far has not been given the opportunity because their
study time has run out to be told what to study. And, this concept will change
the views of parents and educators who have seen only consumption devices, now
they will turn into means of production. And this is the real process of
developing superior human resources
Measurable
Task
A
large number of assignments from teachers is often a complaint in online
learning. The learning load of students, of course, must be calculated,
measured, both materially and in time. Of course, it needs to be remembered
that learning in class is not always filled with assignments or doing a large
number of questions. The teacher can give the task of observing, experimenting,
and analyzing, making it more interesting and challenging.
Although
distance learning, greetings, responses, and feedback or appreciation of the
work done is something that should not be forgotten. There should be no
assumptions, students feel cheated because of the large number of assignments
given, but there is no feedback from the teacher, such as work that has been
done maximally but the teacher does not correct.
Appreciation
for the work of students needs to be given by the teacher so that learning
objectives can be achieved. One of the goals of learning including online is
the achievement of student competencies known as the 4 Cs, namely Critical
thinking which directs students to be able to solve problems
(problem-solving).
Creativity thinking (creative
thinking) can be interpreted as a teacher can assist students who have high
creativity able to think and see a problem from various sides or perspectives.
Collaboration (work
together or collaborate). This activity is important to apply in the learning
process so that students are able and ready to work together with anyone in
their future lives.
Communication can
be interpreted as the ability of students to convey their ideas and thoughts
quickly, clearly, and effectively (Directorate of PSMK, 2019).
Online
learning tasks that are given to students are geared towards these 21st-century
skills. Cellphone applications such as WhatsApp are no longer just a means of
providing one-way information. But the goal is to build skills in 4C.
The
Covid-19 pandemic can be an entry point to change textual learning into
contextual. Contextual learning is a learning concept that links subject matter
in everyday life. Students are expected to find and develop new knowledge and
skills according to the knowledge they have. Thus, they will better understand
and better interpret their knowledge.
In
mathematics, the ability to graph the development of the Covid-19 pandemic and
its predictions can be sharpened. Through cultural arts lessons, you can be
trained to analyze the impact of Covid-19 on the development of performing arts
and alternative solutions. In Indonesian lessons, they are trained to make proposals
to seek aid funds for the response to the Covid-19 pandemic or to make poetry,
articles, short stories harmonized with situations that have recently occurred.
Thus,
when students have honed their ability to see the real world and neutralize it
to the public through the results of their analysis, it has proven the value of
strengthening character education, especially the value of integrity as an
aspect of the expression of compassion and empathy for others.
I
hope online learning does not only produce students like robots who only do
exercises with as many tasks as they can without being able to think at a high
level. For this reason, the success of online learning requires synergic
collaboration between teachers, schools, parents, and students. Schools need to
pay attention to parents of students who cannot afford quotas or do not have
adequate cellphones by facilitating so that online learning can run optimally.
In
addition, the success of online learning during the Covid-19 crisis depends on
the discipline of all parties. Therefore, the school here needs to make a
scheme by compiling good management in managing the online learning system.
This can be done by creating a systematic, structured, and simple schedule to
facilitate communication between parents and schools so that their children who
are studying at home can be effectively monitored.

CONTOH ESSAY , Pembelajaran Jarak Jauh Solusi Pada Masa Pandemi Covid-19
Pembelajaran Jarak Jauh Solusi Pada Masa
Pandemi Covid-19
Oleh : Aris Priyanto, S.T, M.M.
Indonesia dan banyak Negara di dunia tahun ini
tengah mengalami musibah besar, berupa penyakit yang disebabkan oleh virus
jenis baru yang dikenal dengan istilah COVID-19 (Corona Virus Diseases).
Virus Corona membuat aktivitas manusia berubah total untuk beberapa minggu
bahkan bulan. Perubahan ini terjadi pada banyak aspek, mulai dari aktivitas
perekonomian, industri, sosial, bahkan pendidikan.
Aktivitas manusia dalam mengenyam pendidikan
biasanya identik dengan interaksi secara langsung (tatap muka) antara guru dan
juga siswa-siswi di gedung sekolah. Menyampaikan bahan ajar dan menerima materi
pelajaran, kegiatan tanya jawab, diskusi, presentasi, dan segala macam metode
pembelajaran kreatif digunakan guru agar pembelajaran di lingkungan sekolah
dapat berjalan efektif dan menarik hati peserta didik.
Namun sayangnya, virus Corona membuat suasana belajar di bangku sekolah sirna untuk beberapa waktu lamanya, pembelajaran tatap muka, kini beralih pada kegiatan belajar tatap maya. Guru dituntut untuk lebih kreatif dan inovatif dalam mengemas pembelajaran dengan memanfaatkan teknologi. Sementara siswa, dituntut untuk tetap aktif dan disiplin dalam pembelajaran online atau terjemahan bahasa yaitu daring (dalam jaringan).
Tapi ternyata, untuk sebagian masyarakat
perkembangan teknologi dan segala kecanggihannya justru terasa menyulitkan.
Seperti pada kegiatan belajar mengajar yang mengharuskan guru dan siswa
menggunakan Handphone ataupun laptop sebagai alat penunjang,
tentunya tak lupa kuota internet untuk mengakses info perintah belajar. Mungkin
jika hanya satu hari atau satu minggu bisa saja terasa nyaman dan
menyenangkan. Tidak perlu susah payah bersuara keras untuk sekedar menjelaskan
materi agar siswa memahami, tidak perlu lelah memikirkan tingkah siswa-siswi
yang terkadang menyulut emosi, dan tak perlu menghabiskan banyak tenaga untuk
melangkah ke sekolah. Para siswa juga tentu setuju, jika pada pekan pertama,
mereka merasa senang karena belajar beralih di rumah. Tidak perlu bergegas
mandi terlalu pagi untuk siap-siap ke sekolah, tidak perlu datang lebih awal
agar tidak terkena hukuman, tidak perlu menahan kantuk karena mendengar
penjelasan guru yang terlalu panjang, atau tugas diskusi dan presentasi
yang bisa membuat mereka grogi tak terkendali.
Iya, kenyamanan itu terjadi hanya pada pekan
awal saja, saat Pemerintah mengumumkan untuk belajar dari rumah dengan jeda
tidak lebih dari satu bulan. Tetapi seiring berjalannya waktu, ternyata virus
corona mampir di Indonesia lebih lama dari yang kita semua kira, tujuh bulan
berjalan para siswa belajar dari rumah dan entah akan sampai kapan.
Rasa bosan mulai menyelimuti para siswa,
keluhan dari para orangtua pun kerapkali muncul. Mulai dari masalah jaringan,
biaya kuota internet yang mahal, laptop yang mengalami kerusakan, handphone hasil
pinjaman, hingga perasaan malas belajar kian hari kian menghantui. Ternyata,
gurupun mengalami hal serupa, terlebih hampir setiap hari harus memikirkan
terkait bahan ajar dan metode yang tepat, agar materi dapat diterima dengan
baik dan siswa dapat memahaminya.
Oleh karena hal tersebut, pendidikan dalam
jaringan benar-benar menjadi tantangan besar. Semua elemen masyarakat terlibat
dalam mewujudkan proses belajar dan mengajar di masa Pandemi, sebab
bagaimanapun juga pendidikan merupakan hal yang sangat vital dalam mementukan
masa depan bangsa.
Lantas, hal apa saja yang kiranya dapat
dilakukan? agar guru dapat menjadi seorang Pendidik yang tidak hanya khatam dalam
menguasai materi, tetapi juga mampu menjawab tantangan zaman yaitu dengan
menguasai teknologi untuk kepentingan dalam dunia pendidikan.
Berikut merupakan beberapa cara yang menurut
saya dapat diterapkan oleh para guru, guna kelancaran proses pembelajaran
selama masa Pandemi:
1.
Hendaknya guru membiasakan diri untuk mengikuti
berbagai seminar atau workshop secara daring (webinar) untuk
menambah wawasan tentang pembelajaran di era New Normal.
2.
Merancang materi ajar sekreatif mungkin (baik
dalam bentuk power point, pdf, atau bahkan video)
3.
Memanfaatkan social media (facebook,
instagram, google+, youtube, dll) atau social messaging (whatsapp,
telegram, dll) sebagai media belajar agar dalam proses belajar tidak monoton.
4.
Mencoba dengan melakukan tatap maya/video
conference pada pertemuan belajar tertentu.
5.
Tidak membebani siswa dengan setumpuk tugas di
setiap pertemuan.
6.
Mengimplemtasikan pendidikan karakter sesuai
mata pelajaran pada siswa agar tidak terfokus pada buku/catatan/tayangan materi
formal saja.
7.
Menerapkan komunikasi serius tapi santai kepada
siswa, agar mereka tidak merasa tegang dengan cara pengajaran yang dilakukan
guru.
8.
Memberikan respon kepada siswa yang telah tunai
dalam melaksanakan tugas atau perintah belajar, agar mereka merasa dihargai dan
tidak merasa sia-sia mengerjakan tugas sekolah meski secara daring.
Transformasi digital memang bukan pilihan,
tetapi sebuah keharusan, dan merupakan tugas kita bersama selaku Pendidik untuk
mau belajar lagi dan lagi menghadapi perkembangan teknologi. Sementara tugas
orang tua, membimbing anak-anaknya dengan penuh sabar dan tulus agar tidak
merasa jenuh untuk belajar sebagai langkah menata masa depan mereka. Terlebih
untuk siswa, sebagai pribadi yang memegang kendali penuh untuk merangkai mozaik
masa depan mereka sendiri.
Pandemi Covid-19 kiranya bisa menjadi pintu masuk
untuk mengubah pembelajaran tekstual menjadi kontekstual. Pembelajaran
kontekstual merupakan konsep belajar yang mengaitkan antara materi pelajaran
dalam kehidupan sehari-hari. Peserta didik diharapkan dapat menemukan dan
mengembangkan pengetahuan dan keterampilan baru sesuai dengan pengetahuan yang
mereka miliki. Dengan demikian, mereka akan lebih memahami dan lebih memaknai
pengetahuannya.
Dalam pelajaran matematika bisa diasah kemampuan membuat grafik perkembangan pandemi Covid-19 beserta prediksinya. Melalu pelajaran seni budaya bisa dilatih menganalisis dampak Covid-19 terhadap perkembangan seni pertunjukan dan alternatif solusinya. Dalam pelajaran Bahasa Indonesia dilatih membuat proposal menggali dana bantuan untuk penanggulangan pandemi Covid-19 atau membuat puisi, artikel, cerpen diharmonikan dengan situasi yang baru terjadi.
Dengan demikian, ketika peserta didik diasah kemampuannya untuk melihat dunia nyata dan memviralkan kepada publik melalui hasil analisisnya, sudah membuktikan nilai penguatan pendidikan karakter terutama nilai integritas sebagai aspek ungkapan bela rasa maupun empati kepada sesama.
Harapannya, jangan sampai pembelajaran daring hanya menghasilkan peserta didik sebagaimana robot yang hanya melulu mengerjakan latihan soal dengan seabreg tugas-tugas tanpa mampu berpikir dalam level tinggi.
Untuk itu keberhasilan pembelajaran daring tersebut perlu adanya kerjasama sinergis antara guru, sekolah, orang tua, dan peserta didik. Sekolah perlu menaruh kepedulian kepada orang tua peserta didik yang tidak mampu membeli kuota atau tidak memiliki ponsel memadai dengan memfasilitasi, agar pembelajaran daring bisa berjalan optimal.
Di samping itu, kesuksesan pembelajaran daring selama masa krisis Covid-19 ini tergantung pada kedisiplinan semua pihak. Oleh karena itu, pihak sekolah di sini perlu membuat skema dengan menyusun manajemen yang baik dalam mengatur sistem pembelajaran daring. Hal ini dapat dilakukan dengan membuat jadwal yang sistematis, terstruktur dan simpel untuk memudahkan komunikasi orang tua dengan sekolah agar putra-putrinya yang belajar di rumah dapat terpantau secara efektif.
