Kemerdekaan Berfikir dalam Hak Asasi Manusia dan Islam

Abstract: In Islam, reason is put on the most honor place and make it as one of the valuable means to realize the exixtance of God. It is inevitable that some of the Islamic teachings are mobilizing sense, opening mind, and opening human reason, body and soul. Islam does not like the people who do not use their minds, the people whose minds are bound by beliefs and isms that are not based on a correct basis. The independence of thinking can reinforce and strengthen the faith, humility 'and awareness of the greatness of Allah. Independence of thinking is quite important. Because without it, there would be no innovation and creativity. After 68 years of Indonesian’s independence politically, independence of thinking is something that needs to be realized. Without freedom of thinking and social justice, the so called independence is just imaging. Independence of thinking is a golden bridge towards a common welfare. Independence of thinking and freedom of expression are the right of every citizen to express their thoughts orally and in a written form freely in accordance with the provisions of the legislation in force.Keywords: Freedom of thinking, politics, human rights, Islam

Mentoring: Are We Doing It Right?

Most clinicians and researchers will acknowledge the importance of mentoring in their respective fields but whether what is done is truly mentoring is presumed rather than explicit. This paper explores the nature and importance of mentorship in the development of a junior faculty member, and the qualities of a good mentor and mentee. It emphasises the multi-faceted complexity of this relationship including its potential problems, and its inevitable termination. This ending might be unexpected, premature and traumatic; or it may be planned when the mentee has developed a certain level of maturity and independence of thinking and judgment. Either situation requires working through this feeling of loss.

Independence in School Education and Scientific Work

The paper discusses the importance of independence of thinking and acting, so in the school education as in the scientific work. In broader understanding independence means such an attitude of the intellect, emotions and will that makes one willingly undertake different tasks-problems and realize-solve them in a responsible way. Thus independence means the steady disposition to intellectual and practical activity in schools, universities and in the research work. When this activity is emotionally positive, it may create the basis for the development (in the process of school-university education) of scientific, social and moral convictions and attitudes, necessary not only for understanding the universe and for changing it, but also for the development of wisdom, which may be understood as harmony between to have and to be, among material needs and moral values.
