Classroom Reflection II (from english lesson on February 25th, 2013 with Mr. Marsigit)

        On that day, Mr. Marsigit was explained about the difference between traditional and inovative method of teaching. Its important for all people in this world to know about this Mr. Marsigit’s idea, so, i made this reflection.

The picture above is the ilustration about the difference between traditional method and inovative method of teaching learning mathematics. On the left side, there are a picture of teacher and his students that represent the traditional method of teaching. And on the other side, there are a picture that represent the inovative method of teaching learning mathematics.

            In the traditional method of teaching, the teachers always behave as if he/she is the only resources of learning mathematics for the students.. In this method, teachers always deliver or give their knowledge to the students. The students just act as a receiver on class, just be a listener, just sit on their chair and waiting for their teachers knowledge to be transfered to them. So that, this method also called as a transfer of knowledge method of teaching. This method of teaching is the most method that most of us used to experienced in the elementary school, junior on maybe in our senior high school.

            In the inovative approach of teaching learning mathematics the paradigm is that the teacher must facilitate the students on their way to develop their knowledge. So, there is must be exist a trust between the teacher and the student. Good teacher are teacher that be able to facilitate their student well. Therefore, the teacher need to use all technology such an IT like web blog that we can easily make them on the internet. It is important to do because students have different characters in the way on getting knowledge. In the junior or senior high school its a important to use the student worksheet. In the Mr. Marsigit’s class, we have web blog http://powermathematics.blogspot.com as our worksheet. In this method, students need to construct their own knowledge. In the English class, its a hope that we will achieve something good in english. The formal criteria is TOEFL.

We cant get better in english if we dont study by our confidence. Our future is in our own hands, so to learn english is our choice.
