Introduction This catalogue contains details about the interactive digital learning objects available from The Le@rning Federation (TLF). The content has either been produced by TLF or licensed from other sources and made available by TLF.

TLF produced content The TLF Languages online curriculum content is designed to produce high-quality digital learning resources and online tools to help students in years P–10 learn Indonesian. The TLF produced content for Indonesian is part of the Close encounters project. In the Close encounters set of learning objects, based on the principles of Intercultural Language Learning, students use the target language to communicate and interact in authentic activities that portray the socio-cultural characteristics of the target country. The learning objects incorporate a range of rich multimedia with spoken dialogue enabling immersive intercultural language learning experiences not easily generated by students and teachers in the classroom. The learning object scenarios also offer opportunities for teachers and students to integrate other complementary and contributory online and offline activities.

Content from other sources TLF also licences Indonesian content from a range of other sources to include in the pool of digital resources available to all schools in Australia and New Zealand. Currently language content has been licensed from the Department of Education Science and Training (DEST) and is described in this catalogue.

General information The catalogue provides details of all Indonesian learning objects released to date. An asterisk (*) indicates that a learning object/s in a series is still in development. Learning objects are grouped into series and each series has a key graphic representing the series. Many of the learning objects are aggregated into a sequence or theme. Aggregated learning objects are identified with the symbol . Content from other sources, as well as some learning objects produced by TLF, contain licensed copyright material (non-TLF content). See the Acknowledgements and Conditions of use in the learning objects for details. Government and non-government education authorities in each Australian state and territory and in New Zealand have responsibility for facilitating access to the pool of learning objects. Contact TLF’s Contact Liaison Officer (CLO) in your state, territory, school sector or country for details.

INDONESIAN CLOSE ENCOUNTERS

Close encounters Lost bike (Years P–2) In the Lost bike series, designed for younger language learners, students build bikes based on the characteristics of size, colour and bike accessories. They then go to find the bikes in a village.

The activities involve students learning descriptive words and phrases, terms of comparison, adjectives and word order, and familiar language around thanks and greetings. Repetition and visual, textual and spoken feedback supports students’ language learning. The context is appropriate to the target culture and country using images showing the prolific use of bicycles as modes of transport and recreation, and draws comparisons and contrasts with Australia.

‘Lost bike’ is an aggregate learning object containing the other two objects in a sequence.

Kite kit (Years P–6) Students make kites based on the characteristics of shape, colour, designs and tails. They can design as many kites as they like, and then help a friend make a kite. These kites can be ‘flown’ in various different locations and flying conditions, which can be controlled by the student using language around types of weather. The activities involve students learning descriptive words and phrases, terms of comparison, adjectives, and word order and familiar language around thanks and greetings. Language repetition plus visual, textual and spoken feedback supports students’ language learning.

Kite kit: flying ‘Kite Kit: flying’ allows students to fly kites in a range of places in Indonesia. They can adjust wind direction and flying height and are introduced to a number of basic vocabulary items. This learning object is the least complex of the three learning objects.

Kite kit: colour, shape and design Students use and recognise simple words describing colour, size, shape and cultural images. They choose simple words to complete instructions for making a kite. They then make another kite by following instructions given by an Indonesian friend. Opportunities are available to fly the kites in a range of places in Indonesia by adjusting compass directions, wind speed and flying height.

Scenarios (hotel, village, the base, the climb, the top) provide students opportunities to use appropriate language for the context. All spoken dialogue is in Indonesian and the text is seen in speech bubbles. Feedback text is in both English and Indonesian. The learning objects help to demonstrate that effective cross-cultural communication often involves a dynamic process of mutual accommodation of each other’s culture.

Students read about the popular Indonesian ball game sepak takraw and how it is played. Students can also experience a simulated game in which they are required to serve and rally the ball with different body parts, such as the head, chest, shoulders, knees and feet. Students need to be quick in identifying and applying the correct body part in Indonesian before missing the ball and point entirely! A coach congratulates and advises students in Indonesian after each shot. The final screen revisits the vocabulary of body parts in Indonesian as students apply the correct term to a sepak takraw player. This final activity aims to consolidate the main vocabulary of the learning object.

‘Sepak takraw: choose and aim’ includes left and right body parts.

Lost bag: hotel reception [Indonesian] 1259 9–10

* Learning object in development.

Lost bag: ask a baggage handler Consider your options when you land at Bali airport and realise that your luggage, which contains important travel documents, is missing from the baggage claim area. This is the challenge posed in this learning object designed to sensitise students to culturally appropriate ways of communicating in Indonesia. Students listen to how another traveller handles a similar experience and notices how the baggage handler reacts to phrases, tone of voice, gestures and facial expressions. Students then select the most culturally appropriate way of asking a baggage handler to help.

Lost bag: hotel reception In the sequel learning object, ‘Lost Bag: hotel reception’, students continue to the hotel, where they follow up on their room booking and explain to hotel reception their predicament in terms of lost luggage and passport documents. The key for students is to try to maintain a level of politeness, which will determine how well they are treated in the hotel.

Movie mayhem: putri dan labu (Years 9–10)

Learning objects LO ID Years Movie mayhem: putri dan labu [Indonesian] 1246 9–10

In ‘Movie mayhem: putri dan labu’, students edit a film about a young girl in a poor Indonesian family based on a Cinderella-style fairytale. Students progress through a series of film scenes, reading and listening in Indonesian to a set of three shots that make up each scene. They then choose the correct take of a missing shot depending on the meaning of the text. Students must ensure that all images match the given dialogue and that the emotions shown and the spoken words used suit the cultural setting. The dialogue of characters are designed to highlight a range of emotions, making it a useful starting point for examining how emotions are conveyed in an Indonesian context.

Travels in Indonesia: museum 1891 9–10

The Travels in Indonesia series highlights cultural differences and similarities between Indonesian culture and the culture of Australian and New Zealand students as they travel in Rantepao on the Indonesian island of South Sulawesi. The learning objects encourage students to use culturally appropriate language as they interact with Indonesian people in different contexts on their travels: in a small eatery, on a bus tour, in a souvenir shop and in a museum. If successful, the Indonesian counterpart characters show evidence of altering their communication in a culturally appropriate way to accommodate the traveller.

Students hear the responses of the Indonesian counterpart character in Indonesian and receive summary feedback in English on the appropriateness of the language used in each encounter.

Each object in the series also contains a printable Notebook, in which students record answers to questions relating to cultural aspects in the various scenarios.
