Indonesia has entered the digital era. Many sectors have been affected by the development of existing digital devices and platforms, including the higher education sector. Sociologically, this influence must be anticipated because it will influence the transfer of knowledge and the phenomenon of qualification. If the transfer of knowledge is ineffective, the quality of the individual produced by the higher education level may be incompetent. This study aimed to dissect the role and attention on the transfer of knowledge that occurs, along with its impact during the digital era. This study used a qualitative approach with descriptive methods through literature study techniques to synthesize existing empirical facts. The primary empirical data analyzed was the results of research on the transfer of specific knowledge and the phenomenon of qualificationism. The researcher found that digitalization influenced online learning and publication that were inter-related, despite differences in access, skills and benefits for individuals. On the other hand, the quality of higher education faced challenges because there was tacit knowledge that must be fulfilled and the phenomenon of qualification as the impact of higher education growth.
<p><em>In addition, access to digital devices and platforms, there are other factors for individuals to utilize information appropriately. If the information on the rampant is not considered in depth, then it is possible that a new social inequality will be formed because there are hoaxes and other content in it. The symbolic interactionism perspective can be an analytical tool to find the advantages and disadvantages that are formed on the meaning of individuals on the acquisition of information around them. The purpose of this study is to describe the new social inequality that is present through the analysis of symbolic interactionism related to functions that present information from an individual. The study is written using a qualitative approach with descriptive analysis methods and literature study techniques whose content must be related to digital sociology in the perspective of symbolic interaction. The results of the study show that the meaning of the individual as the recipient of information will result in two information utilization functions which in turn can form a new social statement. One side can be used as self-formation according to the correct meaning of information it receives. The other side can be used to disseminate misinformation according to the misinterpretation of information. But before that, these two functions were behind the meaning formed by the knowledge of each individual.</em></p><p><strong><em>Keywords:</em></strong><strong> </strong><strong><em>Symbolic Interactionism, Social Inequalities, Meaning</em></strong></p><p> </p><p><strong>Abstrak</strong><strong></strong></p><p>Selain dipengaruhi oleh akses terhadap perangkat dan platform digital, terdapat faktor lain bagi individu untuk memanfaatkan informasi dengan tepat. Apabila maraknya informasi ini tidak diperhatikan dengan secara mendalam, maka bisa saja suatu ketimpangan sosial baru akan terbentuk lantaran terdapat hoaks dan konten lain di dalamnya. Perspektif interaksionisme simbolik dapat menjadi salah satu alat analisis untuk menemukan keuntungan dan kerugian yang terbentuk atas pemaknaan individu terhadap perolehan informasi di sekitarnya. Tujuan kajian ini hadir untuk mendeskripsikan ketimpangan sosial baru yang hadir melalui analisis interaksionisme simbolik terkait fungsi kehadiran informasi dari seorang individu. Kajian ini ditulis menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode analisis deskriptif dan teknik studi literatur yang isinya harus terkait dengan sosiologi digital dalam perspektif interaksionisme simbolik. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahwa pemaknaan dari individu sebagai penerima informasi akan menghasilkan dua fungsi pemanfaatan informasi yang akhirnya dapat membentuk sebuah kesenjangan sosial baru. Satu sisi dapat digunakan sebagai formasi diri sesuai pemaknaan informasi yang tepat diterimanya. Sisi lain dapat digunakan untuk penyebaran informasi yang salah sesuai pemaknaan informasi yang kurang tepat. Namun sebelumnya, dua fungsi ini hadir di balik pemaknaan yang terbentuk atas pengetahuannya masing-masing individu.</p><p><strong>Kata kunci : </strong><strong>Interaksionisme Simbolik, Kesenjangan Sosial, Pemaknaan</strong><strong><em></em></strong></p>
Peranan perangkat digital saat kini turut memasuki pada upaya mengurangi risiko atau mitigasi di kala bencana. Hal tersebut tergambarkan pada sistem peringatan dini yang manfaatnya telah dapat dirasakan sampai level individu sebagai pengguna perangkat digital. Pengawasan di dalamnya pun harus diberikan penjelasan agar individu pemantau aktivitas alam menyadari penggunaan sistem yang ada. Apabila tidak turut menghadirkan makna pengawasan yang dialamatkan pada sistem peringatan dini, maka pengabaian di dalamnya terhadap proses sistem peringatan dini akan mengundang kerugian sebagaimana dampak bencana alam. Analisis ini ditulis melalui pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode analisis deskripsi serta teknik studi literatur yang berhubungan dengan konseptual pengawasan. Hasilnya, tak hanya melekat pada sistem peringatan dini saja, pengawasan yang ada pada perangkat itu membuat makna di dalamnya turut mengubah konsep pengawasan yang selama ini ada. Dari sisi struktur, kemudahan, waktu, dan fungsionalitasnya hal tersebut telah mengalami transformasi. Walaupun demikian, tak serta merta adanya pengawasan langsung membuat sistem peringatan dini berjalan optimal, melainkan masih terdapat catatan tantangan yang harus disikapi jika ingin dimasifkan peranannya di luar kebencanaan.
KP2C has implemented a flood early warning system through Whatsapp groups since 2016. However, in the areas of Bojong Kulur and Jatirasa, which are the focus of KP2C information and downstream of the Cileungsi and Cikeas rivers, there are still losses for members. The interaction illustrates that achievement of KP2C’s goals has not been maximized, so the meaning of effectiveness is important to explored sociologically with variables thought to be related to it such as the digital divide, social structure’s form, and social capital’s level. This study uses a postpositivism paradigma and survey methods with data qualitative as a support. Respondents in this study were obtained by purposive technique with 40 individuals in RW 24 Bojong Kulur and RW 8 Jatirasa Village as affected areas. The results showed the majority of all variables were dominated by the medium category. Digital divide variable is strongly and positively related to social structure. Both are simultaneously also related to social capital. Therefore, it can be said that if the role of the early warning system is to be effective, then the three variables must clearly be considered.
Secara global, hingga kini upaya untuk mengatasi permasalahan sosial-ekonomi dengan lingkungan selalu dikaitkan melalui Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Namun, di dalamnya sendiri ada masalah kemiskinan sebagai hal utama yang harus dianalisis untuk perencanaan pembangunan ke depannya secara holistik. Kajian ini dengan menggunakan alat analisis three divides, iceberg model, dan systems theory melalui pendekatan kualitatif harus bisa mendeskripsikan fenomena kemiskinan dalam SDGs ini. Hasilnya; ketiga alat analisis tersebut memiliki poin utama masing-masing yang menjelaskan fenomena kemiskinan dalam SDGs sesuai porsinya masing-masing.
