THE TEACHER OBLIGATIONS BEFORE TEACHING

At the previous post, I have already mentions about The Principle of Teaching Learning which talked about the principle of teaching (if you are interested about this post just click here), and Language Learning (if you are interested about this post just click here). This post would be talked about THE OBLIGATION OR A MUST FOR THE TEACHER BEFORE TEACHING.

 

Teaching is a process of giving information to the students from the teachers. The information must be true and shouldn't be fabricated. It means that the Teacher should responsible to the informations or knowledges which given to their students. Teaching also has a meaning to facilitate the students. Because teaching also means facilitating the learning process, there are some important factors that a teacher should prepare.

 

1. Master the teaching material (the Content)

Like I said before that the teacher should be responsible for the content of teaching. He / she must be 100% sure about what they are talking about and follow by the explanation that should be given to the students. In term of English teaching, the teacher must master every part of the material, or English skills (Grammar, Speech, etc) in order to prove their credibility on teaching, and also to make sure that the students have the right information.

2. Know how learning can best take place

The very principle that the teacher must covers: why do the students need to learn it? who are the students? what are the teaching points and steps to cover? When can they learn the lesson? How can they learn the lesson effectively?

3. Know how to measure learning achievement

This is an evaluation part. Every learning process should be ended by an evaluation to measure the students ability and to make sure what are steps that the teacher should takes in order to teach their students. There are three aspects involved in the evaluation:

a.    Have your students learned all the things expected in your plan?
b.    Is your plan or way of teaching effective?
c.    Have you as teacher played the required roles?

That's all that the teacher should pay attention. Considering the Elements of teaching, this Obligation should be covered by the teacher to make the teaching learning successful and effective.

Thank You.

LANGUAGE LEARNING

In earlier post, I have posted about the Principle of Teaching Learning which talked about the teaching as the optimization medium in improving student’s quality and learning as the process of the human to be a human.

In this article I would like to post about the Language Learning especially English Language as the international language.

The purpose of the language is to provide the people to communicate to others people. It means that language is becomes a tool that connect to others people as a communication. Language is a human need which necessary as a media in interaction among people. Because of that, in Language learning students should be participated actively. In others words, it should involve experiencing. The students need practice and experience the use of the language in a range of situations. Because Language Learning should involves experience to the students, so it should cover cultural issues, emotions, social, and all aspects of life.

There are three principles that suitable with Language Learning, they are:

I hear, I forget

I see, I remember

I do, I understand

As the purpose of the language itself, the language as the communication tool so it is related to the speaking ability as the function of the language. The process of speaking is described as Penner (1984) stated that the oral or written communication processes are included:

1)    The communication source;
2)    The message;
3)    The encoder (encoding is done through language expression);
4)    The channel or medium;
5)    The decoder (used by the receiver to understand the message); and
6)    The person who receives the communication.

English as one of the acknowledge language around the world is something that should be mastered now a days. The complexity of English is one of the problems that struggle the students in learning English especially for the Second Language Learner. In order to master English, the students considering these elements in order to make it use effectively:

⦁    Speaking Ability;
⦁    Reading Ability;
⦁    Writing Ability; and
⦁    Listening Ability.

SORROWNESS

                                                                                                                                                   
Do you notice something?

That this scenario has been being played over and over

Till now, until we breath right now

Do you notice?!

Do you notice if you and i was just played

By him? Or by her? Or maybe by them?

This sadness was flowed for along time

Could you? Could you notice?

Can you feel it?

This feeling was hurt me for thousand mile you walked

Can you feel it? This tear? Be drown out the blood?

Please tell me! If you could! But…. i know you can’t

 Now the sun rises at the night

Try to warm us who suffer because of your greedy

Try to make us be better

Although, it impossible to make it right

Now, close your eyes, it won’t happen again

Never ever again

I promise you

Take a bed, and sleep well forever

FREE SEX

Banyak yang bilang bila pergaulan remaja saat ini sudah sangat jauh berubah dibanding pada masa-masa sepuluh tahun silam. Remaja sekarang lebih mampu berekspresi pada emosi dan mengungkapkan perasaan tanpa sembunyi-sembunyi dan malu seperti dulu.

Sudah lumrah saat ini kita melihat remaja mengungkapkan kemarahan, sedih dan kegembiraanya dengan kata-kata yang terucap secara langsung, tanpa basa-basi seperti halnya remaja pada zaman dahulu. Dengan santai mereka bisa mengungkapkan ketidak sukaanya pada ayah atau pun ibunya.

Merangkul dan mencium mesra ibu mereka tercinta. Perilaku ini pun diterapkan pada pergaulan mereka sehari-hari. Dengan biasa mereka mengexpresikan perasaan cinta dan sayang pada pacar mereka di tempat-tempat umum. Sudah umum dilihat saat ini bila di mall-mall para remaja biasa bergandengan tangan, berpelukan bahkan berciuman.

Buat para orang tua, perilaku seperti ini sangat mengejutkan dan membuat mereka merasa kuatir. Namun, seringkali para orang tua lupa, bahwa saat mereka remaja, perilaku mereka pun sering membuat kecut hati para orang tua mereka sendiri!

Namun, apabila orang tua terlalu keras akibat perasaan kuatir yang mereka miliki, maka remaja akan cenderung memberontak dan bersikap jauh lebih keras dan pertikaian antara orang tua dan anak pun tidak dapat lagi dihindari.

Remaja bergaul memang adalah sebuah kebutuhan. Sama halnya dengan dahaga yang ingin terpuaskan. Mereka ingin mengenal banyak orang dari berbagai lingkungan. Ini sebetulnya tidak terlepas dari proses pencarian jati diri semata. Dengan membebaskan perasaan dan isi hati, mereka juga mengharapkan kebebasan dan ketenangan jiwa. Bila dikekang, mereka nampak begitu sedih dan terkekang.

Tapi bila pergaulan terlalu dibebaskan, juga sangat mengkuatirkan. Yang penting berkomunikasi dan terarah. Bilamana sang remaja masih mampu berkomunikasi dengan keluarga dan orang tua, maka bimbingan untuk pergaulan pun dapat tersampaikan. Informasi tentang apa yang sebaiknya mereka lakukan dengan teman-teman dan apa efek dari apa yang mere lalukan dan perbuat juga perlu dikomunikasikan.

Dengan demikian, besar harapan kita agar remaja mampu memilih apa yang baik dan tidak untuk dilakukan. Tidak ada kata benar atau salah, tapi lebih tepat kepada yang baik atau bermanfaat dan yang merugikan.

THE PRINCIPLES OF LEARNING AND TEACHING

Days after days, English becomes more important than we have expected. Every jobs and opportunities are limited with the requirement of English proficiency. The learning that should be covered by the students is not enough to fulfill the world's need, especially at junior and senior high school only.  That means formal education is not quite enough in developing student ability especially in English. It should be supported by informal educational institutions, or non-formal education to maximize the effect on the students itself. 

WHAT IS TEACHING?

Teaching is a process of transferring knowledge, skills and expected behavior set in a well-structured program. And the most important thing is to change the attitude or manner of the students. This is the hardest part for the teacher as the agent of change.
The teacher has varieties of role depending on the situation and the lesson that the teacher teaches. Although in fact the teacher should cover all the roles to manipulate the classroom to be an effective classroom and encourage the students to maximize their ability. 

In the speaking classroom, at least there are three particular relevance roles that a teacher should cover to make the students speak fluently Harmer (2001: 275-276), they are:

a.    Prompter

There are many conditions that could happen in the classroom as the teachers used their method in teaching learning activity. The students lose their words to speak, cannot think any further, do not have any idea that support their arguments, miss pronunciation or some other way losing their fluency. It is clear that the role of teacher as prompter would help the students in their stuck condition in their activity in the classroom. The most important that it could loose the sense of stress that the students may feel when they would face a serious problem in their activity.

b.    Participant

 
The teacher could act as the participant who helps the students inside of the students. It would be a good idea when the teachers are giving their additional information to support the discussion or the role-play of the students has. In that way the teacher could prompt the students covertly, encouraging the students to actively involved in the classroom. However, in some terms, the teachers should not dominate the activity itself which could be drawing all the students’ attention to the teachers.  

c.    Feedback Provider 

Harmer (2001: 276) stated the vexed question of when and how to give feedback in speaking activities is answered by considering carefully the effect of possible different approaches. It reflects that the result of the teaching learning activity is depending on the teacher respond to the varieties activities that students do in the classroom. 

 WHAT IS LEARNING?

Learning is a process of change from one mental setting into another. In a simple way, it not only makes the people know, understand or do the lessons but also change their behavior and their manner expected from the set program. Learning can be optimized by the present of the teacher who makes the learning more effective, although learning could be done without it and could be achieve everywhere, anywhere, anytime. In contrary, teacher could not stand alone without its’ learners. 

As the explanation above, although the learners could learn anything and everywhere, it still needs a teacher to guide him, because the purpose of learning is not only the knowledge, but also behavior or manner. The teacher must be able to help the learning process happen and make it more effective. Therefore, teaching becomes ineffective when at the end of the class students have not achieved any learning.
