Bias-bias Dikotomi dalam Buku Ajar Matakuliah Pendidikan Agama Islam di Perguruan Tinggi Umum
Abstract: The kind of Islamic
sciences being taught in many higher education institutes in Indonesia is that
which tends to make students isolated from their world. These Islamic sciences
in themselves are kind of separation from the religious and worldly, Islamic
and secular. This dichotomous character had inflicted upon the students
mentality, who in turn become equally dichotomous in their attitude, and way of
thinking. This paper tries to explore this, and attempts to seek the best way
in which the dichotomous curriculum can be replaced with the integrative one. It
argues that, like the nature of Islam, religious sciences cannot be separated
from the non-religious ones. The one must work hand in hand with the other so
that. The paper addresses specifically the dilemmas intrinsic within the text
book used by many higher religious institutes in the country called
“Reorientasi Pendidikan Islam: Menuju Pengembangan Kepribadian Insan Kamil”.
The book—we argue—directs the students to adopt a single identity, disregarding
therefore the multi and diverse racial, religious and even cultural background
of the students. The paper is simply about a warning of the danger of the
implication that the book can come up.
