Summary of "Deep Learning oleh Prof Yuli Rahmawati Phd"
Summary of Deep Learning oleh Prof. Yuli Rahmawati PhD
Main Ideas and Concepts
1. Introduction to Deep Learning in Education
- Deep Learning (also called in-depth learning or PM) is a modern educational approach promoted by the Indonesian Ministry of Education and Culture.
- It focuses on developing holistic competencies in students beyond rote memorization, emphasizing meaningful, mindful, and joyful learning experiences.
- The seminar attracted a large audience, reflecting strong interest in applying deep learning in schools.
2. Profile and Credentials of Prof. Yuli Rahmawati PhD
- Roles and background:
- Drafting team member for deep learning policy.
- Educational attaché in Australia.
- Lecturer at State University of Jakarta.
- Research assistant and tutor at Curtin University.
- Awards:
- Best Lecturer (2017).
- Women in Academic Leadership (DAAD, 2019).
- Lecturer of the Year (Asia Education, 2024).
- Active in research, publications, and educational framework development.
3. Theoretical Foundations and Framework of Deep Learning
- Deep learning is built on multiple educational theories and adapted to the Indonesian context.
- Aligns with global educational goals such as the 6Cs (Critical thinking, Creativity, Collaboration, Communication, Citizenship, Character), expanded into eight dimensions including faith/piety and health.
- Integrates principles of mindful, meaningful, and joyful learning.
- Emphasizes understanding students’ readiness and cognitive development before advancing to higher-order thinking.
4. Challenges in Current Education
- Indonesian students report high happiness at school but perform poorly on international assessments like PISA.
- Learning often remains at low cognitive levels (C1-C2) without sufficient progression to higher-order thinking.
- Overloaded curriculum and limited time hinder deeper learning.
- Stresses the importance of contextualizing learning materials to students’ real-life environments.
5. Core Principles of Deep Learning
- Mindful: Students are aware and self-regulated in their learning.
- Meaningful: Learning connects with students’ real-life contexts and relevance.
- Joyful: Learning should be engaging and challenging, not just fun or entertaining.
- These principles guide learning design from understanding to application and reflection.
6. Learning Experience Stages
- Three key stages:
- Understanding
- Applying
- Reflecting (including metacognitive and emotional regulation)
- Assessment should be formative, ongoing, and include self-assessment and peer assessment.
7. Pedagogical Practices and Learning Environment
- Any teaching method is acceptable if it fosters meaningful, mindful, and joyful learning.
- The learning environment includes physical, virtual, and cultural aspects.
- Teachers act as facilitators, activators, collaborators, and culture shapers.
- Collaboration among teachers and involving learning partners (community members, parents, experts) enrich learning.
8. Use of Digital Technology
- Digital tools support assessment, self-regulation, and engagement.
- Digital use should be optimized but balanced, considering issues like gadget addiction.
- Examples: videos, quizzes, simulations, digital portfolios.
9. Curriculum and Content Considerations
- Focus on:
- Essential knowledge (core concepts).
- Applied knowledge (real-world application).
- Values and character education.
- Curriculum should be adapted to students’ readiness and local context.
- Encourages differentiated instruction.
- Promotes integration across disciplines (multi/interdisciplinary learning).
10. Implementation Examples Across Educational Levels
- Early childhood education (PAUD): hands-on and sensory learning.
- Elementary to vocational schools: contextualized projects (e.g., polymers, solar panels, environmental issues).
- Special education: sensory-based experiments for blind students.
- Vocational schools: link learning to industry and practical skills.
11. Assessment and Feedback
- Continuous assessment including formative, summative, self, and peer assessments.
- Feedback is critical to support self-regulation and learning progression.
- Assessment measures understanding, application, and reflection.
12. Teacher’s Role and Professional Development
- Teachers must understand student characteristics and learning readiness.
- Design learning experiences that are contextual, relevant, and engaging.
- Teacher motivation and empathy are crucial, especially with challenging student behaviors.
- Ongoing training and support from the Ministry and institutions like Uhamka are planned.
13. Future Directions and Support
- Deep learning is a living, evolving framework with a 5-year projection.
- The Ministry will pilot and gradually implement deep learning in selected schools.
- Guidance documents and training programs will be developed.
- Collaboration among educators, schools, and communities is vital for success.
Methodology / Instructions for Implementing Deep Learning
