Discover an innovative International Boarding School in South Jakarta, integrating eco-technology architecture for sustainable learning. Fostering an advanced, independent, and globally competitive generation.

Abstract

Educational innovation is an important factor for educational progress. Unfortunately, the implementation of educational innovation in Indonesia has not run smoothly as expected. This situation requires systemic reformulation by taking into account various factors such as political, economic, social and cultural factors. Judging from the importance of education, the combination of international schools and boarding schools is the right innovation choice in the current era. International Boarding Schools can be a way to create a generation that is advanced, independent, responsible and able to compete in developing science, technology and skills at an international level. By using an international curriculum and combining it with a boarding system in learning practices, it is hoped that the Indonesian generation can achieve a generation that is intelligent, independent and broad-minded. Not only about the educational aspect, International Boarding Schools can also be a solution to overcome traffic jam problems that occur, especially in big cities. With the Boarding system, parents no longer have to pick up and pick up their children to study at school, thereby reducing the quantity of motorized vehicles on the road. The construction of facilities in a city does not always go well and produce good results, many facilities are built which make the quality of the environment worse. Therefore, to reduce negative impacts on the environment, facilities to be built should apply an environmentally friendly design approach to reduce damage to the environment around the building in the short and long term. The international boarding school is planned on a site of 1,154 ha, on Letnan Jendral Soepeno Street, Kebayoran Lama, South Jakarta, Special Capital Region of Jakarta. The facilities at the school include classrooms, laboratories, dormitories and other supporting facilities that follow international school standards.

Review

This abstract outlines an ambitious and multi-faceted proposal for an International Boarding School in South Jakarta, integrating an eco-technology architecture approach. The paper commendably identifies critical societal challenges in Indonesia, ranging from the slow progress of educational innovation and the need for a globally competitive generation, to urban traffic congestion and the negative environmental impact of new construction. The proposed solution—combining an international curriculum with a boarding system—is presented as a strategic choice to foster intelligent, independent, and broad-minded individuals, while simultaneously offering a unique perspective on alleviating urban issues like traffic. The clear identification of the project site and preliminary facilities provides a tangible foundation for the concept. However, the abstract could benefit from greater clarity and depth in several key areas. While the "eco-technology architecture approach" is central to the title, its specific application and underlying principles are not elaborated upon in the abstract. Understanding what particular technologies, design strategies, or environmental certifications are envisioned would significantly strengthen this aspect. Similarly, the initial premise of "systemic reformulation" considering political, economic, social, and cultural factors is a powerful statement, but the abstract quickly shifts focus without explicitly demonstrating how these broader considerations inform the architectural or educational model, beyond the general benefits mentioned. A clearer articulation of the *specific* educational innovation, beyond the combination of curriculum and boarding, would also enhance the perceived contribution. In its current form, the abstract presents a compelling vision but leaves several methodological and conceptual questions unanswered. It appears to be a design proposal or a conceptual study, yet some claims, such as the efficacy in solving traffic problems or being "the right innovation choice," would typically require supporting evidence or a more robust analytical framework. The full paper should clearly define its scope—is it an architectural design project, a feasibility study, or a policy recommendation? Elucidating the theoretical underpinnings for both the educational model and the eco-technology architecture would be crucial. Despite these points, the project holds significant potential for contributing to sustainable urban development and educational reform in Indonesia, provided these areas are rigorously addressed in the forthcoming work.
