Bandar Lampung – Universitas Teknokrat Indonesia continues to strengthen its role in educational innovation by promoting the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into school learning. This commitment was highlighted during a talk show titled “Optimizing Artificial Intelligence in the Digital Learning Ecosystem,” held at the Universitas Teknokrat Indonesia Auditorium on Wednesday, April 15, 2026. The event was organized as part of the Branch Conference of the Forum Komunikasi Kepala Sekolah Swasta (FKKS) of Bandar Lampung Vocational High Schools, bringing together school principals to discuss the opportunities and challenges of implementing AI in education. The session featured Ridwan Mahenra, S.Kom., M.Cs. (AI), a lecturer at Universitas Teknokrat Indonesia and an Artificial Intelligence specialist. He highlighted the potential of AI to support the learning process in the digital era, emphasizing that AI should not replace teachers but instead serve as a tool to improve the efficiency and quality of education. AI as a Solution to Educational Challenges During his presentation, Ridwan discussed one of the major challenges faced by educators: limited time due to heavy administrative responsibilities. These demands can reduce the time and attention teachers are able to devote to classroom learning. “AI is a collaborative solution. It works like a personal assistant that can read, summarize, and even write within seconds,” said Ridwan. He also pointed out the growing gap between rapid technological development and conventional teaching methods. As students become increasingly familiar with digital technology, educators need to adapt their approaches to ensure that learning remains relevant to the changing digital environment. AI-Powered Learning Innovations One of the innovations introduced during the session was Google NotebookLM, which can transform learning materials, such as textbooks, into podcast-style audio content. This approach can support auditory learners while providing students with a more engaging way to interact with educational materials. Ridwan also demonstrated how AI can assist teachers in preparing presentation materials. From summarizing teaching resources to creating slide outlines, AI can help reduce the time required to prepare classroom materials and allow teachers to focus more on the learning experience itself. Promoting Accurate and Responsible AI Use The workshop also addressed some of the limitations of AI, including the possibility of generating inaccurate information, commonly referred to as AI hallucinations. As a potential solution, participants were introduced to AI systems that can be configured to rely only on selected reference materials, such as textbooks and official documents uploaded by teachers. “AI can be configured to provide answers based only on verified sources and can even include page references, helping maintain the accuracy of educational content,” Ridwan explained. Participants were also introduced to effective prompt-writing techniques to produce more specific and practical AI outputs. These techniques can be applied to various educational tasks, including lesson-plan development and the preparation of assessment instruments. Encouraging Collaboration and School Implementation Suprihatin, S.Pd., Chair of the FKKS of Bandar Lampung Vocational High Schools, welcomed the initiative and highlighted its value in helping educators adapt to technological developments. “We hope that our collaboration with Universitas Teknokrat Indonesia can continue so that technologies such as AI can be implemented effectively in schools,” she said. A similar view was expressed by Sigit Haryadi, S.ST.Par., M.Par., Principal of SMK Kridawisata Bandar Lampung, who emphasized that understanding AI should begin with educational leaders before being introduced more broadly to students. He also expressed his commitment to following up on the program through further training for teachers and school principals. University Commitment to Educational Innovation The Rector of Universitas Teknokrat Indonesia, Dr. H.M. Nasrullah Yusuf, S.E., M.B.A., expressed his appreciation for the initiative and described it as part of the university’s efforts to promote innovation in education. “The use of AI in education is becoming increasingly important. This technology is not intended to replace teachers, but to strengthen their role so they can focus more on meaningful learning,” said the Rector. He emphasized that Universitas Teknokrat Indonesia will continue promoting the integration of technology into education to create a learning environment that is adaptive, innovative, and capable of competing in the global era. Supporting the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) The initiative reflects Universitas Teknokrat Indonesia’s commitment to supporting the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 4 – Quality Education, through efforts to strengthen teachers’ competencies and promote technology-based learning innovations. The integration of AI into education also contributes to SDG 9 – Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure by encouraging digital transformation in the education sector and preparing human resources with the skills needed to navigate an increasingly technology-driven global environment. Through initiatives such as this talk show, Universitas Teknokrat Indonesia continues to strengthen collaboration with schools while encouraging educators to explore the responsible and effective use of AI in education.

Technokrat University Students Launch Women’s Empowerment Project “Girls Go Beyond”

By Admin LEDPosted on Posted in COE Gender Studies

Three students from Universitas Teknokrat Indonesia (UTI) have launched a youth-led initiative focused on women’s empowerment called “Girls Go Beyond.” The initiative was founded by Shavina Lestiani, Sekar Kinasih, and Rizma Amalia Sa’adah, sixth-semester students from the English Literature Study Program at Universitas Teknokrat Indonesia. The project was developed under the guidance of Intan Hamzah, M.Pd. and Suprayogi, M.Hum. Girls Go Beyond is a series of educational and training activities designed to help young women in Lampung build greater self-confidence, develop self-awareness, and learn how to protect themselves from potential threats and violence. The program consists of two main activities: self-care training and a seminar on sexual violence against women. Through the self-care training, participants are introduced to the importance of personal hygiene, grooming, and personal branding as part of their personal development and future career preparation. The program was developed in response to survey findings from several institutions indicating that many young women experience insecurity regarding their physical appearance and body image. Through self-care education, Girls Go Beyond encourages participants to develop positive attitudes toward themselves and strengthen their sense of self-love and self-confidence. Beyond personal development, the program also aims to encourage young women to recognize and maximize their potential so they can pursue better opportunities in education and future careers. The second component of the program focuses on sexual violence awareness. This activity was initiated in response to concerns about cases of sexual violence in Lampung, particularly those involving children and adolescent girls. Information about such cases has frequently been reported through local news outlets. During the seminar, participants learn to recognize different forms of sexual harassment and violence, understand their potential impacts, learn about available reporting mechanisms, and develop the ability to become supportive allies for victims and survivors within their communities. The seminar also includes basic self-defense training to introduce participants to practical responses in situations that may involve harassment or potential violence. Girls Go Beyond represents an effort by university students to respond to gender-related issues while contributing to Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 5, which promotes gender equality. The initiative also supports the “Perempuan Berdaya” (Empowered Women) campaign promoted by the Lampung Provincial Government. The first Girls Go Beyond session was successfully held in October 2022, involving 40 participants aged 17. The organizers invited Shana Makhmood Khan, a student with an interest in personal branding, and Kania Dea, a student and member of Persaudaraan Setia Hati Terate, to contribute to the training sessions. More than 90 percent of the participants reported feeling highly enthusiastic about the activities and considered the knowledge provided through the program important for their future. “I believe this is a great opportunity to show how important it is to learn about these issues at a young age,” said Shavina Lestiani in a written statement on April 15, 2023. She added, “Some people may think that these topics are not relevant to young girls and that they will learn about them as they grow older. However, many teenage girls do not have access to this kind of knowledge and grow up without fully understanding what is happening around them.” Shavina is an accomplished student in the English Literature Study Program and has won several national English speech competitions. She is currently focusing on language research related to gender issues while also developing gender education initiatives for rural communities. Meanwhile, Girls Go Beyond continues to evolve, particularly in terms of its curriculum and program activities. One of its development efforts has been connected to the Young Southeast Asian Leaders Initiative (YSEALI), which Sekar Kinasih became involved with during her time at the University of Nebraska at Omaha. Moving forward, Girls Go Beyond plans to introduce additional programs and involve more volunteers to expand its reach and impact. Updates and activities from the initiative are also shared through its Instagram account, @girlsgobeyond.
