Abstract

Indonesia is one of countries that has high quantity of people but low in quality. It is shown from the low rating in human development index. Thus, the quality improvement i.e. educational improvement should be implemented effectively. Reading is one of the most crucial element in the field of education. The low rating of reading interest among Indonesian people becomes a tremendous issue which needs to be solved. To tackle, government implements the reading movement as contained in Act of the Republic of Indonesia number 20 of 2003 and ruled by Ministry of Culture and Education (Permendikbud) number 23 of 2015 about 15 minutes of literacy activities prior to the beginning of the study session. The study aims to identify the university students’ reading interest in University of Bangka Belitung as well as to examine the determinant and the obstacle of the university students’ reading interest. Structured questionnaire and online data collection methods were employed to obtain the primary data from 182 university students in University of Bangka Belitung, Indonesia. The study showed that the reading interest of university students in University of Bangka Belitung were at low score. About one-third of the respondents visited library once a week, one-fourth visited library twice a week and only 8.3 % of the respondents visited library 4 – 5 times a week. Almost one-fourth of respondents had 1 – 4 reading materials. Around half of respondents read less than an hour a day. As the determinant of book reading and library attendance, 61.3 % of the respondents were due to do assignment while only 16 % of respondents were due to habit and need to read. Whereas, as the obstacle to reading, almost half of respondents preferred using gadget, around one-fourth of respondents spent their times with friends and 39.2 % of respondents were too busy with their extracurricular activities on campus
邦加勿里洞大学学生的阅读兴趣
印度尼西亚是人口多质量低的国家之一。这可以从人类发展指数的低排名中看出。因此,必须有效地实施质量改进,即教育改进。阅读是教育领域中最重要的因素之一。印尼民众对阅读兴趣的低评价成为一个亟待解决的巨大问题。为了解决这个问题,政府实施了2003年印度尼西亚共和国第20号法案所载的阅读运动,并由文化和教育部(Permendikbud) 2015年第23号法案规定,在学习开始前进行大约15分钟的扫盲活动。本研究旨在识别邦加别里洞大学大学生的阅读兴趣,并考察大学生阅读兴趣的决定因素和障碍。采用结构化问卷调查和在线数据收集方法,对印度尼西亚邦加别里东大学182名大学生进行了初步调查。研究表明,邦加勿里洞大学大学生的阅读兴趣得分较低。约三分之一的受访者每周参观图书馆一次,四分之一的受访者每周参观图书馆两次,而只有8.3%的受访者每周参观图书馆4至5次。近四分之一的受访者有1 - 4份阅读材料。大约一半的受访者每天阅读不到一小时。61.3%的受访者是由于做作业,而只有16%的受访者是由于习惯和需要阅读。然而,作为阅读的障碍,近一半的受访者更喜欢使用电子产品,约四分之一的受访者花时间与朋友在一起,39.2%的受访者忙于校园课外活动
