JAKARTA - Teachers in Sangihe Islands District, North Sulawesi (Sulut) use both mobile (guru keliling/mobile teacher, abbreviated as guling) and offline (offline) teaching-learning methods to overcome the absence of internet at several points in the region.

"In urban areas (district capitals) it is still accessible, but in certain areas, such as those on the outer islands, it is increasingly difficult. We hope that the availability of the internet network can reach evenly throughout the region," said the Head of the Education Office Branch of the Sangihe Islands Regency, North Sulawesi, Maximilianus Tielung in Sangihe, as reported by Antara, Thursday, May 6.

Some areas that have difficulty with internet networks for learning activities for SMA/SMK/SLB education units are Marore Island, Tatoareng, Nusa Tabukan, Pintareng Village, and Lapango.

Meanwhile, sub-districts that have adequate internet network access are Tahuna, Manganitu, North Tabukan, and parts of Tamako District.

"For the internet, it is still difficult. Even if it is available, not all schools can enjoy it, the network coverage is still in certain areas," he said.

Maximilianus hopes that the availability of the internet network can reach all educational units because many of the innovations made by schools depend on the internet.

"School exams use computers, as well as semester exams that can be connected to the internet. If there is no internet network, it will be very difficult," he said.

The Sangihe Islands District Education Office branch, he said, oversees 30 schools consisting of SMA (Senior High School), SMK (Vocational High School) to SLB (Extraordinary School).
