While full concentration on information submitted by the professor, suddenly heard the strains of music. All eyes turned toward the sound source, the owner immediately took the handy hers, held it to the ears, then hear the greeting "Hello!" And half-whispered conversation even took place.
I immediately turned the attention back to the professor, saying in his heart:
"lecturer koq ya ... not bothered by various strains of music in class? Koq other friends looked calm ya? Koq only My own feeling disturbed? " Some information from lecturers miss just like that, without knowing whether that information is important and needs to be understood even noted that still remember, or not.
After a few strains of music from the phone sounded student, heard again the music is much slower than the earlier music. Apparently, now turn to professors who answered the phone, chat, and we all listened carefully what dipercakapkan. Sure we may not converse with friends because the situation was at the lecture.
These events happened almost every day in the lecture. At first sebualn ago, precisely July 27, 2009, I felt very shocked, surprised, annoyed and wondered, when student phone ring tones and call was answered. There are also calls SMS, which is followed up by reading it and respond, while still delivering the material lecturers without visible disrupted.
So far I always explain the order of lectures at the beginning of the semester, among others, are not expected to have a voice communication tool during lectures take place, let alone received a phone call, read or reply to SMS messages, as all will feel disturbed.
But it seems the different habits of different places. Cultural taboo which for me is done in the course, turned out in Yogyakarta are common. Even the mounted volume is sufficient to be heard from outside the room with the door in closed state.
Is this a new phenomenon in the world of education?
If in the classroom is 20 students which enable all phones with voice enough to be heard and the chance at a not too long ago read in tandem, whether professors will continue to deliver the material? And every student is busy with keperluannya respectively.
Well ... I am so confused, am I too old-fashioned in the classroom, or less indifferent to the environment?
Observation Results from July 27 to September 4, 2009 in class, during lectures took place.
