Kang GURU English Language Interactive
Radio Presenters Network
|
On August 4th 2005, seven eager and hard-working radio presenters met at IALF Bali for a two day meeting.
All seven of these people present English language interactive radio programs in their respective cities.
They were invited to meet with each other, and with KGRE. The main reason for the meeting was to begin the
process of forming a KGRE English Language Interactive Radio Presenter's Network.
|
In the past KGRE has assisted and encouraged English language interactive radio programs in many parts of
Indonesia. KGRE wants to encourage more radio stations to further develop, or even introduce, their own interactive
programs. KGRE plans to produce a set of ‘Hints and Suggestions’ to help radio stations and their
presenters to do this by December 2006.

On Day One of the presenter's workshop each participant described their own radio programs. They talked about
some of the difficulties and successes that had experienced since beginning their programs. It was interesting
to note the variety of differences between programs. The seven enthusiastic participants considered many interesting
questions about their programs and about KGRE.
What are the most common problems in presenting interactive programs?
How were or how can these problems be overcome?
How can members of a presenter's network help each other?
What makes an interesting interactive radio program?
How can we make English language interactive programs interesting and appropriate for language learners in listening
audience?
|
KGRE presented some ideas for ‘on air’ activities which have already been used by some of the
participants. It is planned that KGRE will produce a bank of such activities designed to help presenters make
their programs more interesting and informative.
On Day Two the group listened to some sample programs from participants. This was followed by a brief discussion
of each other's programs. The group talked about how they plan their programs. This session was led by Jack
and Nada from RRI Mataram.
|
|
Final sessions were based on the how KGRE and the participants can best develop a Presenter's Network during
2005 - 2006. How can KGRE help you AND how can you help each other and how should KGRE go about ‘selling’ English
interactive programs to other radio stations? The involvement of participants is going to be important in
this part of the network's goals.
|
If you know of an Interactive radio presenter (English language) then why not tell them to contact KGRE and maybe
they too can join this new and exciting network of people helping people in Indonesia.
