Welcome to Southeast Asia Education Network For several years we have been trying to establish an education network that crossed borders and began to maximize the region's education resources, both physical and intellectual.
The primary objective of this website is to provide an open forum for the exchange of ideas and information with the hope that together we can assist education development in the region and strengthen the bonds between our countries.
We have established what we like to believe is a useful Indonesian education network consisting of some 70 or so websites. Most of the content is in Bahasa Indonesia but we receive visitors from all over the world including large numbers from Malaysia, Brunei and Singapore.
While most of the websites are perhaps simplistic in nature, the fact that teachers, students, principals, and other interested parties can have access to a forum (many forums in fact) to share ideas has made the concept very worthwhile and successful. We have been operating our network for almost nine years.
Currently in the top left hand section of this page we have links to a few of our sites, many more links can be found from our Pendidikan Network site. We are hoping that this section of the website will eventually become highly populated with your education websites, thus forming an international education network for the region.
It is hoped that at this website we can form a group of active dedicated professionals who are genuinely concerned about education development in Southeast Asia.
Please register your organization or institution's website in our database, join our forums, send us items of news from your region for posting in our regional news section (left), and please send us any information you have about innovations in education, technology developments, or other developments in your region. If you would like to become an active member of this network please send your information to Contact Us.
From our experiences here in Indonesia we have found that while corruption in education management is still the main obstacle to education development, and eventhough tens of thousands of schools are in a pitiful condition, and many teachers still remain confused about what is effective methodology, issues like Intenational Standard Schools (SBI) that only widen the equity gap, and high-technology that threatens the quality of education (through e-Learning) in our schools seem to be the main thrusts of our Ministry of Education. Why?

What Is A Quality Education?
Teacher-based education where the welfare and abilities of the teachers are satisfactory, and the schools are in good condition, with a curriculum that meets the needs of the students, and is 'well balanced' (includes many forms of skills training including technology), that is implemented using Active Contextual Learning is the solution for preparing our children for the challenges of the future.
