The Rise Of Students Against Teachers At School Becomes Urgent Attention
JAKARTA - The phenomenon of students fighting teachers in schools is an urgent concern.
No longer just as the sole authority in classrooms, teachers now have to face new challenges from students who are more daring at expressing their opinions.
The problem is when it triggers students' hatred for their teachers and has a negative impact, for example, students get angry, go on a school strike, their academic value goes down, or is difficult for the teacher to regulate. This phenomenon provides a little picture that a small part of education in Indonesia is not in a good state. Student events against teachers both directly and through legal channels are increasingly being heard.
Psychologist from the Indonesian Talenta Profile Yasinta Indrianti revealed that this behavior against teachers is also supported by the characteristics of teenagers who are in the era of searching for their identity, wanting to compete in showing their existence but sometimes unable to channel it properly.
To prevent students from fighting teachers at school, it is important to create an inclusive, safe, and supportive learning environment.
According to him, the steps that can be taken are that teachers need to build positive relationships with students by showing appreciation, empathy, and attention to their needs.
"Open communication is important to open open open communication channels between teachers and students. Students should feel comfortable conveying their problems or concerns," he told reporters, Tuesday, April 30.
In addition, he continued, giving students the opportunity to participate in decisions that affect students can give them a sense of belonging to the school environment.
Providing social skills training to students can help them learn how to communicate well, resolve conflicts constructively, and work together in the team.
"Currently students should be given positive activities with teacher support, for example creating competition so that students can compete in a healthy manner," he explained.
There are several positive competitions so that students can channel their ideas and talents by participating in various activities.
One of them is participating in the Yupi Good Talent event held by Yupi Gummy every year.
