CHAPTER IIDISCUSSION

2.1 Lifelong Education

2.1.1 Definition of Lifelong EducationIn the broadest sense of lifelong education (Lifelong Education) is that education does not stop until the individual becomes an adult, but continues throughout life. Lifelong education into a higher sense of urgency at this time because people need to constantly adapt in order to survive naturally in a community that is always changing. In sisilain of lifelong education are vast opportunities for a person to continue learning in order to achieve better living conditions.The things that cause and allow such things it is:a. Rapid advancement of science and technologyb. Technology products which need to be studied because it is associated with working toolsc. For those who use technology-based working toold. Social change as a result of the rapid advancement of science and technology [1]

Lifelong education is the answer to criticisms leveled at the school. The school system has traditionally had difficulty in adjusting to life changes very quickly in the last century and can not meet the needs or demands of human increasing. Education in schools is limited to the level of education from childhood to adulthood, will not meet the necessary requirements of the world that is growing very rapidly. Changing world requires a flexible system. Education must remain engaged and recognize continuous innovation. Through a process of lifelong learning is this man capable of improving the quality of life continually, able to follow the development of science and technology and the resulting development of society and culture to face future challenges, as well as willing and able to turn challenges into opportunities.

Definition of lifelong education, according to some education experts, among others:

1. Delker (1974) suggests that lifelong education is a natural human actions and natural processes do not always require the presence of a teacher, tutor, or educator. The learning process may not be based on a person or group that he or they have been or are involved in it. Lifelong learning activities achieved if there is a boost in a person or group to meet the learning needs and satisfaction, and if there is awareness and enthusiasm for learning for life is still in the bladder body.

2. Gestrelius (1977) suggests that lifelong education includes learning interactions (learning), determination of learning materials and methods of learning, the providers, facilities, administration, and environmental conditions that support ongoing learning activities. Into this pendidikaan including the role of educators and learners should and mutual learning, the management of learning activities, and other factors that support the learning process.

2.1.2 The Four Pillars of the UNESCO Education Lifelong EducationEfforts to improve the quality of a nation there is no other way except through improving the quality of education. Departing from the idea that UNESCO declared the four pillars of the current and future education are: learning to know, learning to do, learning to be and learning to live together.

a) Learning to knowEducation is essentially an attempt to look for in order to determine the necessary and useful information for life. Mastery in the broad field of science and specific, including Learning to How. To implement the "learning to know" (learning to know), teachers must be able to place itself as a facilitator. In addition, teachers are required to be a dual role as a friend of the dialogue for their students in order to develop students' mastery of knowledge.

b) Learning to doEducation is also a learning process to be able to do something (learning to do). The process of learning produces changes in cognitive, increased competence, as well as the selection and acceptance are aware of the values, attitudes, appreciation, feelings, and willingness to act or respond to a stimulus. Education equips man is not just to learn, but more to do skilled or do something so as to produce something meaningful for life. Learn to apply knowledge, work together as a team, learn to solve problems in various situations. Schools as learning communities seyogjanya container facilitates students to actualize the skills possessed, as well as their talents and interests to "Learning to do" (learning to do something) can eventuated. Although real talents and interests of children affected by hereditary factors, but the growth and development of talent and interest is also dependent on the environment. As we all know that skills are the means to sustain the life of a person's skills even more dominant than the acquisition of knowledge alone.

c) Learning to beMastery of knowledge and skills is part of the process of becoming yourself (learning to be). It is closely related to their talents, interests, physical, psychological, personal typology children as well as environmental conditions. Eg for students who are aggressive, will find herself if given the opportunity extensive enough to be creative. And vice versa for students who are passive, the teacher's role as a compass direction as well as a facilitator is needed to develop the full potential of students and maximum. Being yourself is defined as the process of understanding the needs and identity. Learn to behave according to the norms and rules that apply in the community, learn to be successful, is really the process of achieving self-actualization. Learning to be independent, be a responsible person to achieve a common goal. Unesco declared the third pillar is "learning to be" (learning to be a man).

d) Learning to live together

Learn to understand and respect other people, their history and values of religion. The process of "learning to live together" (learning to live together), the fourth pillar of this, the habit of living together, mutual respect, open, giving and receiving needs to be developed in school. Conditions such as these that enable the growth of mutual understanding among racial, ethnic, and religious. With capabilities, as a result of the educational process, can be used as a preparation to be able to act in an environment where the individual is located, and at the same time able to put themselves in accordance with their role. Understanding of the role of self and others in the study group is a provision in socializing in the community (learning to live together).

By applying these pillars, expected education that goes around the world, including Indonesia could be better, but the problem is education in Indonesia, which is still lack of facilities, especially in remote areas, the uneven educational facilities, will certainly be an obstacle for students to develop themselves. For all that, education in Indonesia should be directed at improving the quality of intellectual and professional abilities and attitudes, personality and moral.

d) ReproductionIn the process of learning, a person must not only accept and remember new information, but it also must be able to reinvent anything she had ever received. So that learners are able to reproduce, educators need to present teaching in an impressive manner.

e) GeneralizationAt this generalization stage, learners should be able to apply the lessons learned elsewhere and in a broader scope. Generalization can also be interpreted the application of lessons learned from one situation to another situation.

f) Applying What Have Taught and FeedbackIn this phase, learners should have understood and can apply what has been taught. To ensure that students have really understood, then the supervisor can give assignments or tests to be done by learners. Tests can also be given a written or oral test.

With such feedback, students can find out how he understands what is being taught and can correct itself.
