Abstract

In September 2023, the Diocese of Atambua's 9th Pastoral Conference (Muspas) in Emmaus initiated a mission to redefine its pastoral vision to address current social challenges. Led by the Bishop, the quinquennial plan emphasizes enhancing understanding of Church teachings amidst socio-economic and human development concerns. Particularly in the Mena deanery of North Central Timor, a culturally diverse and pivotal area, STP St. Peter's efforts aimed to align pastoral agents with this renewed vision. The collaborative educational approach underscores the importance of education, economic prosperity, and synodal collaboration as church success cornerstones. This strategy fosters a uniform approach across the diocese, encouraging ecological farming initiatives for sustainable development, and dynamic evangelization. The ultimate goal is fostering a community that progresses in intelligence and prosperity, in harmony with the Church's evolving vision and mission.

Abstract

Paulo Freire’s concept of liberal education is still not implemented in the world of education in developing countries. Educational actors still adhere to the banking system to oppress students. This study raises a social correlation between educators and students called school family kinship. The education curriculum needs to be used as an indicator of success in terms of the intelligence of the children. The curriculum has continued to transform since 1947 to 2022 but has not found its identity. Now, the independent learning curriculum is intensively grounded, but there are gaps between regions and between socio-economic groups in terms of learning quality. The implementation of the independent learning curriculum is considered not to have a significant positive effect in the outermost and marginalized areas. Therefore, the old pattern called banking system of education is still used. Students are considered empty piggy banks that must be filled by the teacher. Teachers are still recognized as the all-knowing in knowledge that must be poured into the brains of students. As a result, students can only follow what is transferred by the teacher. This is the basis for the author to try to provide briefings to Catholic teachers and education personnel in Wini and Wekfau parishes regarding the implementation of an independent curriculum in Catholic Schools. This study uses qualitative methods with observation techniques carried out in coastal parishes (Wini) and in the mountains (Wekfau) in terms of geographical location to find out the similarity of perceptions of the independent curriculum. This study applies a qualitative method with observation techniques carried out in the coastal parish (Wini) and in the mountains (Wekfau) in terms of geographical location to find out the similarities in perceptions of the implementation of the independent curriculum in two different areas.

Abstract

Indonesia has a motto Bhineka Tunggal Ika. It means unity in diversity. Thismotto binds all of Indonesian people to not to discriminate one nation from another,including race, skin color, religion, language, etc. The proper attitude in plurality is torespect and to appreciate one another. To respect and to appreciate are social basicattitudes that relevant in every encounter and togetherness with the others. Without these attitudes, our lives will be so vapid and full of social tensions because each personjust to prioritize his/her own interests and neglect even spoil the others’ interests.Respect and appreciation are shown by the act of recognition that there are the otherswho need to be noticed beside ourselves. Fraternity is a gift. This gift is a graceful lifethat makes us become Jesus’ brothers and sisters in the family of God. It is because faithand love, not because of blood relationship, feeling and the descendant. BhinekaTunggal Ika: a lot gifts but one Spirit.

Abstract

Abstract:  This study examines the implementation of an experiential-based literacy program through a feature writing competition aimed at strengthening students’ literacy skills in North Central Timor Regency. The program was carried out through several stages, including perception alignment, school-based mentoring, writing practice, and evaluation and reflection on the outcomes. The study employed data triangulation through observation, interviews, and analysis of students’ written works. The findings indicate that the experiential learning approach increased students’ engagement, particularly in the affective and reflective dimensions, and supported the development of narrative ideas. However, the study also identified a gap between students’ storytelling abilities and their mastery of journalistic writing techniques, including weaknesses in language use. Nevertheless, the program had a positive impact on students’ self-confidence, motivation, and reflective awareness. The study concludes that experience-based literacy is effective as an entry point for developing contextual literacy. However, this approach still requires continuous reinforcement in technical writing skills and students’ linguistic competence.   Key Words: Experiential learning, Literacy, Feature writing, Narrative competence, Contextual literacy   Abstrak: Penelitian ini mengkaji implementasi program literasi berbasis pengalaman melalui lomba penulisan feature untuk memperkuat kemampuan literasi siswa di Kabupaten Timor Tengah Utara. Program dilaksanakan melalui beberapa tahap, yaitu penyamaan persepsi, pendampingan di sekolah, praktik menulis, serta evaluasi dan refleksi hasil. Penelitian menggunakan triangulasi data melalui observasi, wawancara, dan analisis karya siswa. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pendekatan experiential learning meningkatkan keterlibatan siswa, terutama pada aspek afektif dan reflektif, serta membantu pengembangan ide naratif. Namun, masih ditemukan kesenjangan antara kemampuan bercerita dan penguasaan teknik jurnalistik, termasuk kelemahan pada aspek kebahasaan. Meski demikian, kegiatan ini memberikan dampak positif terhadap peningkatan kepercayaan diri, motivasi, dan kesadaran reflektif siswa. Penelitian menyimpulkan bahwa literasi berbasis pengalaman efektif sebagai sarana pengembangan literasi kontekstual. Akan tetapi, pendekatan ini tetap memerlukan penguatan berkelanjutan pada kemampuan teknis penulisan dan kompetensi kebahasaan siswa.   Kata Kunci: experiential learning, literasi, penulisan feature, kompetensi naratif, literasi kontekstual

Abstract

Abstract:   Concerns about the quality of education resonate deeply among education advocates. These grievances raise questions about the future of education. In fact, there are still many heart-wrenching issues in education. In this situation, educational reform is necessary. Various projects have been implemented, but the results have not been optimal. The “banking” style of education continues to prevail. When the budget runs out, mentoring activities stopped, as if education were merely about money. This situation causes the Church’s concern, particularly at the parish and deanery levels. Therefore, efforts to revitalize the education section have become a strategic alternative. This is important because members of the Education Section are pioneers in education. The main issues are the suboptimal quality of education and the lack of a robust system to empower human resources. The method involves ongoing animation and empowerment activities. The focus is on the leaders of the parish and deanery education sections. Through these efforts, hopefully a solid and competent education section team will be formed. They will not only be implementers but also innovators to ensure the sustainability of educational programs without relying on funding. In conclusion, improving the quality of education is not a short-term project, but a serious effort to empower and strengthen human resources. The active role of the education sections in parishes and deaneries, education can proceed in a more sustainable, meaningful, and high-quality manner.   Key Words: animation; empowerment; education section. Abstrak: Kecemasan akan kualitas pendidikan menggema dalam sanubari pemerhati Pendidikan. Keluh kesah tersebut menimbulkan pertanyaan tentang masa depan pendidikan. Ternyata. masih banyak persoalan pendidikan menyayat hati. Dalam situasi ini pembaharuan pendidikan diperlukan. Berbagai proyek telah dilaksanakan namun hasilnya belum maksimal. Pendidikan gaya bank terus bergulir. Ketika anggaran habis, kegiatan pendampingan terhenti seolah pendidikan hanya soal uang. Situasi ini menjadi keprihatinan Gereja khususnya di paroki dan dekenat. Maka upaya animasi bagi seksi pendidikan menjadi salah satu alternatif  strategis. Hal ini penting dilakukan karena anggota Seksi Pendidikan merupakan pionir pendidikan. Masalah utama adalah belum optimalnya kualitas pendidikan dan belum adanya sistem yang kuat untuk memberdayakan sumber daya manusia. Metodenya berupa kegiatan animasi dan pemberdayaan berkelanjutan. Fokus kegiatan ditujukan kepada pengurus seksi pendidikan paroki dan dekenat. Melalui upaya ini diharapkan terbentuk tim seksi pendidikan yang solid dan berkompeten. Mereka tidak hanya menjadi pelaksana tetapi juga inovator yang mampu menjaga keberlanjutan program pendidikan tanpa bergantung pada dana semata. Kesimpulannya, peningkatan kualitas Pendidikan bukan proyek jangka pendek, tetapi. upaya serius dalam memperdayakan dan memperkuat sumber daya manusia. Melalui peran aktif seksi pendidikan di paroki dan dekenat, pendidikan dapat berjalan lebih berkelanjutan, bermakna, dan berkualitas. Kata Kunci: animasi; pemberdayaan; penguatan; seksi pendidikan
