HOW TO BE GOOD TEACHER
A.
Teacher
Teachers indeed occupy a respectable position in society .
Teachers can be respected by society because of his authority , so that the
community does not doubt the figure of the teacher . People believe that the
presence of the teacher , it can educate and shape the personality of their
students well in order to have a high intellect and soul responsible leadership
. So in simple terms , the teacher can be defined as a person who gives
knowledge to the students . While teachers in the view of society itself is the
people who carry out specific education in places , not necessarily in a formal
educational institution but also can be implemented in a non - formal
educational institution such as a mosque , in the surau / mosque , at home and
so on .
A teacher has a distinctive personality . On one hand the
teacher should be friendly , patient , show understanding , trust and creating
a safe atmosphere . But on the other hand , the teacher should assign tasks ,
encourages students to achieve the goal , reprimand , assess , and conduct
correction . Thus , the personality of a teacher as if divided into 2 parts .
On the one hand is empathy , on the other hand is critical . On the one hand
receives , on the other hand refused . So a teacher who can not portray his
personal as a teacher , he would side with only a personal one . And based on
these things , a teacher must be able to sort and choose when to empathize with
students , at a critical time , when to accept and when to reject . With other
perkatan , a teacher must be able to play doubles . This dual role can be
embodied in different ways according to the circumstances and conditions in the
face .
The task of the teacher as a profession , calling on
teachers to develop themselves according to professional development of science
and technology . Educate , teach , and train students is the task of the
teacher as a profession . The task of teachers as educators , continue and
develop life values to their students .
The task of the teacher as a teacher means to continue and develop science and
technology to their students . The task of the teacher as a coach means to
develop skills and menerapakannya in life for the sake of future students .
Teachers also have the ability , expertise , or often referred to as
professional kompetinsi . Professional competence in question is the ability of
teachers to master the academic problems that are very concerned with the
implementation of teaching and learning process , so that teachers have
absolute competence in carrying out their duties as educators and teachers
Teachers in the Java language is to be pointed at a digugu
and emulated by all the students and even the public . Should digugu means
everything delivered by him and diyakkini always believed as truth by all
pupils . While emulated means a teacher should be a role model ( role model )
for all of his students .
Traditionally
teacher is one who stands in front of the class to present science .
Teachers
as teacher educators and child , teacher likened to a mother who teaches a wide
variety of both new and as facilitators so that children can learn and develop
the basic potential and ability to be optimized , it's just a different scope
of teachers , teachers educate and teach in public schools or private .
The
understanding of teachers according to the experts :
- According to Noor Jamaluddin (1978 : 1 ) Teachers are educators , the adults in charge to give guidance or assistance to students in the physical and spiritual development in order to reach maturity , able to stand alone to carry out their duties as a creature of God caliph in the earth , as social beings and individuals are able to stand alone .
- According to Government Regulation Teachers are functional position , ie the position that shows the duties, responsibilities , authority , and the right to a civil servant in an organization that is based expertise in the execution of their duties or specific skills and be independent .
- According to Decision Men.Pan Teachers are civil servants were given the duties, powers and responsibilities between the competent authorities to carry out education in schools .
- According to Law no . 14, 2005 Teachers are professional educators with the primary task of educating , teaching , guiding , directing , train , assess , and evaluate students on early childhood education , formal education , elementary education , and secondary education .
B. Role and Function Teacher
The education experts in the West have been doing research
on the role of a teacher who should acted . The role of diverse teachers have
been identified and studied by Pullias and Young (1988 ) , Manan (1990 ) and
Yelon and Weinstein (1997 ) .
The roles are as follows :
1 . Teachers as Educators
Teachers are educators , who become
leaders , role models and identification for the learners , and the environment
. Therefore , teachers must have a certain quality standard , which includes
the responsibility , authority , and self- discipline . The role of the teacher
as an educator ( nurturer ) related to the growth and development of children
to gain more experiences such as the use of physical health , free from the
parents , and other adults , the morality of civic responsibility , knowledge
and basic skills , persiapan.untuk marriage and family life , the election
office , and the things that are personal and spiritual . Therefore, the task
can be called a teacher educator and child maintenance . The teacher in charge
of disciplining the child must control every activity the children to the level
of child's behavior does not deviate with the existing norms .
2 . Teachers For Teachers
The role of teachers as tutors and
mentors in the learning activities of learners are affected by various factors
, such as motivation , maturity , relationships with teachers learners , verbal
ability , degree of freedom , security and communication skills of teachers .
If the above factors are met, then through learning learners learn best .
Teachers should strive to make something clear to the learners and skilled in
solving problems .
There are several things that must be
done by a teacher in learning , namely : Making illustrations , Define ,
Analyze , Synthesize , Ask , Respond , Listening , Creating trust, Providing
varying views , Provides medium to assess the standard material , Adapt
teaching methods , Gives tone feeling .
In order for learning to have maximum strength , teachers
must constantly strive to maintain and enhance the spirit which has been owned
when studying the standard material .
3 . Teachers As Advisors
Teachers can be described as supervising
the trip , which is based on knowledge and experience is responsible for the
smooth running of the trip . In this case , the term travel is not just about
the physical but also the mental journey , emotional , creative , moral and
spiritual deeper and complex .
As
a mentor teacher trips require high competence to carry out the following four
points :
- Teachers should plan identifies objectives and competencies to be achieved .
- Teachers should look at the involvement of students in learning , and most importantly that the students carry out the learning activity was not only physically , but psychologically they should be involved .
- Teachers should interpret the learning activities .
- Teachers should carry out an assessment .
- Teachers as Leaders
Teachers are expected to have personalities and science .
The teacher becomes a leader for learners . He would be a priest .
Teachers as business Learning
Teachers should be able to master the various methods
pembelajaran.Selain it , teachers are also required to increase their knowledge
and skills so that knowledge and skills dirnilikinya not outdated .
- Teachers as Model and Example
The teacher is a model or example for the students and all
those who regard him as a teacher . There is a great tendency to assume that
this role is not easy to challenge, let alone rejected . For example , personal
and of course what the teacher will come under scrutiny learners and people
around the neighborhood who consider or acknowledge it as a teacher . There are
several things that must be considered by the teacher : basic attitude , speech
and conversational style , work habits , attitudes through experience and
mistakes , clothing , human relations , the process of thinking , neurotic
behavior , taste , judgment , health , lifestyle in general .
Teacher behaviors affect learners , but the learners should
dare to develop their own personal lifestyle .
Good teacher is aware of the gap between what is desirable
with what is in him , then realized the mistake when it was in the wrong .
Errors must be followed by a feeling and attitude trying not to repeat it .
- As a Community Member
The role of the teacher as communicator community
development . A teacher is expected to play an active role in the development
of all fields that are being done . He can develop his abilities in the areas
under their control . Teachers should also have the ability to blend in with
the community through its ability , among others, through sporting activities ,
religious and youth . Dexterity associate must have, because otherwise it would
be a stiff interaction and result in question is less acceptable to the public
.
- Teachers as administrator
A teacher not only as an educator and teacher , but also as
an administrator in the field of education and teaching . Teachers will be
exposed to a variety of administrative tasks in schools . Therefore, teachers
are required to work a regular administration . Everything in relation to the
implementation of the learning process needs to be administered properly .
Because the administration is done as to make teaching plans , noting the
results of learning and so is a valuable document that he has carried out his
duties properly .
- Teachers As Advisors
The teacher is an advocate for students as well as for the
parents , even though they do not have special training as a counselor and in
some cases can not hope to advise people .
Learners are constantly faced with the need to make
decisions and in the process will run to his teacher . In order for teachers to
be aware of his role as confidant and advisor in more depth , he must
understand the psychology of personality and mental health sciences .
- Teachers For Renewal ( Innovators )
Teachers who have past experience translate into a
meaningful life for students . In this case , there is a wide chasm between
generations within and with each other , such as the experience of older people
have more sense than our grandmothers . A learner is learning now ,
psychologically being away from human experience that must be understood ,
digested and embodied in education .
The task of the teacher is to translate policy and this
valuable experience into modern terms or language that would be accepted by learners
. As a bridge between the older and younger genearasi , who is also the
translator of experience , teachers must be educated person .
- Teachers as Drivers of Creativity
Creativity is very important in learning and teachers are
required to demonstrate and show the creative process . Creativity is something
that is universal and is a hallmark aspect of the living world around us .
Creativity is characterized by the activity of creating something that
previously did not exist and was not done by a person or a tendency to create
something .
As a result of this function , the teacher always trying to
find ways to better serve learners , so that learners will menilaianya that he
did not do something creative and just regular basis . Creativity shows that
what is done by the teacher is now better than it has done previously .
- Teachers As Emansipator
With ingenuity , the teacher is able to understand the
potential of learners , to respect every human being and realize that most
human beings are " slaves " cultural stagnation . Teachers know that
experience , recognition and encouragement are often exempt from the learners
" self- image " is not fun , folly and of feeling rejected and
inferior . Teachers have been carrying out the role as emansipator when
learners are cast in moral and experiencing various difficulties raised back
into a confident person .
- Teachers as Evaluators
Evaluation or assessment is the most complex aspects of
learning , because it involves a lot of background and relationships , as well
as other variables that have meaning when associated with a context that is
almost impossible to be separated by any terms valuation . Whatever the
technique chosen , the assessment should be done with clear procedures , which
includes three stages: preparation , implementation and follow-up .
- Teachers As Kulminator
The teacher is a person who directs a gradual learning
process from beginning to end ( culmination ) . By design students will pass
the culmination stage , a stage that allows each student to know the progress
of learning . Here the role of Kulminator integrated with the role as
evaluators .
True teacher is a person who should be versatile and
all-knowing . And able to directly pass on his ability and knowledge in a
manner consistent with the development and potential students .
So many roles that must be carried by a teacher . The role
that bear so heavily on the shoulders of teachers should not make the teacher
candidates withdrew from the noble task . These roles should be a challenge and
motivation for prospective teachers . He must realize that in society there
must be teachers who take on the role . If not , then some people will not wake
up intact . Full of inequality and ultimately the society is moving towards
destruction
C. STUDENT
As the students also have to understand
the obligations , ethics and melaksanakanya . Liability is something that must
be done or performed by students . While ethics is a code of conduct , which
should in customs tati and implemented by the students in the learning process
.
Yet it can not be separated from student
involvement , as an educator must understand and provide an understanding of
the dimensions inherent in self-learners to the learners themselves , if an
educator does not know the dimensions , the potential of these students will be
difficult to develop , and students also recognize its potential .
In this paper , we try to serve the
above issues in order mncapai educational goals expected , particularly in
Islamic education .
a. Definition of Students
Etymologically students in the Arabic
language is called denganTilmidz Talamid plural , meaning " disciple
," that is " the people who covet education " . In the Arabic
language also known as Talib , plural is Thullab , which means " seek
" , referring to "those who seek knowledge
But definitively more details expert
teleh write some understanding of the students . Students are immature and have
the number of potential ( ability ) base still needs to be developed .
According to Article 1, paragraph 4 of
Law No. . 20 of 2003 on the national education system , students are community
members who are trying to develop themselves through education on line level
and type of education.
Abu Ahmadi also wrote about student
understanding , students are minors , that requires effort , assistance ,
counseling others to become adults , in order to carry out his duties as a
creature of God , as human beings , as citizens , as members of society and as
a personal or individual .
From the definitions expressed by the
experts can be concluded that learners are those who have the nature of (
potential ) base , both physically and psychologically , which need to be
developed , to develop the potential of greatly in need of education of
educators .
Samson Nizar , as quoted by Ramayulis
classify students as follows :
- Students are not miniature adults but has his own world .
- Students have the periodization of development and growth .
- Students are creatures of Allah who have good individual differences caused by heredity and environment in which he berad
- Students are the two main elements of the physical and the spiritual , physical element has a physical and a spiritual element has a sense of conscience and lust .
- Students are human beings who have the potential or nature which may be developed and evolve dynamically .
Students are also known by other terms are like , Students
, Citizens Learning , Palajar , Students and Pupils .
- Students is the term for students in elementary and secondary education .
- Student is a general term for students on college education .
- Residents Learning is a term for non-formal learners such as Community Learning Center ( CLC ) .
- Student is another term used for students who follow the formal education secondary level and upper level .
- Pupils have a definition similar to the student and the student .
Pupils are terms for students on the
path of non -formal education , especially boarding schools or schools -based
religion of Islam .
Education is the guidance given aid
educators on learners towards maturity . So far and for any help that is given
by the influential educators view to the possibility of a current learners in
the learner .
In accordance with his nature man is a
cultured , in which human beings are born in a state that does not know anything
and he has the readiness to be good or bad .
b. Ethics Students
So that students gain the pleasure of
Allah in their studies , the students should be able to understand the ethics
that should dimilkinya , namely :
- Students should always cleanse his heart before the study.
- Learning objectives should be addressed to decorate with various nature spirits virtue .
- Having a strong will to seek and study at various places .
- Each student is required to honor educators .
- Learners should be studied seriously and steadfast .
However,
these students need to be refined ethics with morals four learners in their
studies , namely :
- Students must cleanse his heart from impurities and mental illness before he was studying , because learning is a worship that should be done with a pure heart .
- Students must have a study destination in order to adorn the soul with the nature of faith , draw closer to God .
- A student must be steadfast in acquiring knowledge , and patience in the face of challenges and trials that come .
- A must be sincere in their studies with respect to the teacher or educator , trying to obtain the willingness of teachers to use a few good ways .
D. Teaching Technique /
Teaching Strategy
1 . Grammar Translation
Method
In the method of Grammar ( the Grammar
Method) students learn the rules of grammar together with a list of vocabulary
or groups . The words are then used phrases or sentences based on rules that
have been studied . In this method the control rules take precedence over the
application . Verbal skills , such as pronunciation , not done . This method is
an easy application because the teacher does not have to be fluent to speak the
language to be learned , while the evaluation and supervision were not
difficult .
Translation method ( the Translation
Method) contains text translation activities conducted from easy to difficult .
First of native language to the target language and vice versa . Text
translation is done by translating word for word and idea by idea , including
idiomatic expressions . The combination of the two methods mentioned above bore
Grammar - Translation method ( the Grammar Translation Method / GTM ) which has
the following characteristic :
1.
Teaching begins with the provision
of the rules of grammar and refers to the framework of a formal grammar .
2.
Vocabulary is taught depends on
the selected text so that there is no continuity between the groups or
vocabulary lists with each other .
3.
Memorization and translation are a
prominent feature of activity , ie memorizing and translating vocabulary and
grammar rules .
4.
Pronunciation is not taught or
highly restricted in some aspects .
5.
More emphasis on reading and
writing skills rather than listening and speaking .
From
the above description , GTM can be defined as a method of teaching language
through the analysis of language rules in detail and followed by the
application of knowledge of the rules for the purpose of translating sentences
and texts climates , both from the target language into the mother tongue or
vice versa
The
characteristics of GTM :
- emphasize accuracy ; students are expected to achieve high standards in penerjamahan .
- meruntutkan grain or the rules of the grammar of the target language in the syllabus closely .
- menggunakan mother tongue as the medium of instruction students
The
techniques in the Grammar Translation Method :
1
. Translation of a literary passage ,
2
. Reading comprehension questions ,
3
. Antonyms ,
4
. Cognates ,
5
. Deductive application of the rule ,
6
. Fill - in-the - blanks ,
7
. Memorization ,
8
. Use words in sentences ,
9
. Composition
2 . Direct Method ( DM )
Direct instruction is a revision of the
Grammar Translation Method because this method can not be considered to make
the students able to communicate using the foreign language being studied . In
the learning process , the translation is forbidden . The learning process with
DM , the teacher asks the students to read aloud. Then , the teacher gives a
question in the language being studied . During the learning process takes
place , realia such as maps or objects that can actually be used . Teachers can
draw or demonstrate .
The
techniques in the Direct Method :
1
. Reading aloud
2
. Question and answer exercises
3
. Getting students to self -correct
4
. Conversation practice
5
. Fill - in-the - blanks
6
. Dictation
7
. Map drawing
8
. Paragraph writing
3 . The Audio - Lingual
Method
The term audio - lingualisme first
proposed by Prof. . Nelson Brooks in 1964 . These methods claim to be the most
effective methods and efficient in learning a foreign language and claim to
have changed their methods of language teaching is only an issue to a science .
Audio - Lingual Method ( ALM ) is the result of a combination of views and
principles of Structural Linguistics , Contrastive Analysis , Aural - Oral
approach , and behavioristic psychology . ALM rationale regarding language ,
teaching , and learning the language is as follows :
1
. Language is spoken , not written
2
. Language is a set of habits
3
. Teach language and not about language
4
. Language is as spoken by native speakers
5
. Language with each other is different .
Richards & Rodgers ( 1986; 51 in
Prayogo , 1998:9 ) adds some learning principles that have been the basis of
audio - lingualisme psychology and its application as follows :
1. Learning a foreign language is basically a process of habit formation
mechanistic
2. Skills are learned more effectively if the language aspects that should
be studied in the target language are presented in the form of oral
sebelumdilihat in written form .
3. Analogy forms provide a better foundation for language learners than
other forms of analysis , generalization , and the distinctions better than an
explanation of the rules .
4. Meaning of the words that are owned by a native speaker can be studied
only in the context of language and culture and not stand alone .
Richards & Rogers also said that the language skills
taught in this order: listening , speaking , reading , and writing . Forms of
teaching and learning activities ALM is basically a conversation and exercises
( drills ) and exercise pattern (pattern practice) . The conversation serves as
a tool to put the key structures on the context and provide illustrative
situations where such structures are used by native speakers , so as well as
the implementation of the cultural aspects of the target language .
Repetition and memorization became the dominant activity in
this method . Certain grammatical patterns in conversations selected to be a
pattern of exercise activities . Learning activities based ALM are : repetition
, inflection , relplacement , restatement , completion , transposition ,
expansion , contraction , transformation , integration , rejoinders , and
restoration . Procedure learning using ALM : Teacher Activity
- Become a model at all stages of learning .
- Uses of English mother tongue as much as possible and as little as possible
- Coaching listening and speaking skills of students without written language first .
- Teaching practice structure through sound patterns , sequences , shapes , and not through explanations .
- Provide written forms of the target language as sounds completely overpowered students .
- Minimizing giving vocabulary to students prior to all general structure controlled .
- Teaching vocabulary in context .
Student
Activities
- Listen to a conversation as a model ( teacher or cassette ) that contains key structures are the focus of learning , they repeat each line of the conversation individually or together, memorize it and students do not see the book .
- Changing the settings dialog with the place or the other according to the tastes of students .
- Practicing the key structure of the conversation together and then individually .
- Referring to textbooks and follow up with reading , writing or vocabulary based on existing conversations , writing begins in the form of activity can then copy and ditingkatkat
Teaching
techniques in ALM ( Audio - Lingual Method) :
1
. Dialogue Memorization
2
. Transformation Drill
3
. Backward Build - up ( expansion ) drill
4
. Question - and- Answer Drill
5
. Repetition Drill
6
. Use of Minimal Pairs

. Chain Drill
8
. Complete the Dialog
9
. Single - slot Substitution Drill
10
. Grammar Game

.. Multiple - slot Substitution Drill
4 . THE SILENT WAY
The experts in cognitive psychology and
language transformation - generative thought that learning a language does not
need to go through repetition . They believe that learners can create
expressions that have never been heard . Furthermore, they argue that language
learning is not only mimicked but the rules can help them speak the language
being studied .
In the learning process , the teacher
just pointed to a chart that contains the vocal consonant . Master points
several times in silence . After a while the teacher just gave an example of
the pronunciation . Then refer students to recite to correct . Teacher in the
learning process a lot of silence , he only directed / pointed to learning
materials .

. Self - Correction Gestures
5 . SUGGESTOPEDIA
Georgi Losanov believe that there are
obstacles in the process of learning psychology . Suggestopedia an app
suggestion in pedagogy where learners experience a feeling of failure can be
eliminated . In suggestopedia learning model , learners can overcome the
constraints of psychology ..
In applying this model of learning ,
classrooms arranged such that different from the regular classroom . Students
sat on the couch in the form of a half circle with the dim lighting . Some
posters related to learning materials posted on the wall . Teachers greet the
mother tongue and then convince the student / learner if hell does not need to
try to learn but the learning will take place naturally . Teachers play
classical music then directs learners to relax by means of a sigh. The teacher
invites learners to imagine about the material being studied . When they opened
their eyes , they play a role . After that , the teacher read while making
music . Teachers do not give homework .

6 . COMMUNITY LANGUAGE
LEARNING
This method is believed in the
principle 'whole persons ' , which means they not only pay attention to the
feelings and intelligence of students but also relationships with fellow
students . According to Curran ( 1986:89 ) students feel uncomfortable in new
situations . By understanding prasaan fear and sensitive student teacher
student can eliminate negative feelings into positive energy to learn .
A circle of chairs with a table in the
middle . There was a tape recorder on the table . The teacher explains the
purpose of learning . Teachers mnyuruh students make dialogues in English . If
the student does not know the teacher help . Students recorded conversations .
Then , the tape is written in the form of transcripts in England and mother
tongue language . After that the rules of language are discussed .

techniques of Community Language Learning :
1
. Tape - recording Student Conversation
2
. Reflective Listening
3
. Transcription

. The Human Computer
5
. Reflection on Experience
6
. Small Group Tasks
7 . THE TOTAL PHYSICAL
RESPONSE METHOD
This method is also called 'the
comprehension approach' which touches on the importance of ' listening
comprehension ' . In the early stages of learning a foreign language focused on
listening comprehension . It is based on the observation of how children learn
their mother tongue . A baby listening to the sounds around him for months
before he could mention one word . No one told the baby to talk . A child speak
when he was ready to do it .
In the Natural Approach ( Krashen &
developed by Terrel ) , students listen to a teacher who communicate using the
foreign language learning process started early . Teachers can help students to
understand the material by using a picture and a few words in the native
language . Natural Approach is almost the same as the Direct Method . At Total
Physical Response
( TPR ) , students listen and respond
to verbal instructions of teachers . Form of instruction given as ' Turn
around' , ' Sit down ' , ' Walk ' , ' Stop ' , ' Jump' , etc. .
The
techniques in the Total Physical Response Method : .
1
. The Using Commands to Direct Method
2
. Role Reversal
3
. Action Sequence
8 . Methods Direct ( Direct
Method )
Direct direct means . Direct method or
the direct model is a way mengajikan foreign language subject matter in which
the teacher directly using the foreign language as the language of instruction
, and without the use of language students in teaching slightest . If there is
a word that is difficult to understand by the students , the teacher may
interpret the use of props , mendemontstrasikan , describe and others.
This method rests on the understanding
that the teaching of a foreign language is not the same as teaching the exact
sciences . When teaching science , students are required to be able to memorize
certain formulas , think , and remember , it is in language teaching , student
/ students trained langsunng practice saying the words or phrases given . Even
if the words or phrase initially unfamiliar and do not understand the students
, but little by little the words and sentences that will be spoken and can also
interpret it .
Similarly, if we look at a mother teaches
her children wet the direct teaching him , led him to say the word by word ,
sentence by sentence and his son obeyed terihat though still funny . For
example, mothers teach " father " then they say " aah " and
so on . But over time the child to recognize words and finally he understood
that he meant anyway
In principle, the direct method (direct
method) is very major in foreign language teaching , because through this
method can directly train students without language proficiency mother tongue (
language environment ) . Although at first seem difficult to menuirukannya
students , but it is interesting for the students .
The characteristics of this method are :
The subject matter is first given word for word , then kalimatGramatika
structures are taught only in passing, and students are not required to
memorize grammatical formulas , but that utam is able to pronounce the language
students well . In the process of teaching always use tools ( props ) props
either directly , indirectly ( bnda clone ) and show through symbols or certain
movements Upon entering the classroom , student or protege is really
conditioned to accept and carry a conversation in a foreign language , and are
prohibited from using other languages .
9 . Berlitz Method ( Berlitz
Method)
Berlitz Method ( Berlitz Method ) is
there a direct method ( Direct Method )
is always used in the Berlitz schools as the primary method .
All schools Berlitz method (direct
method ) in the teaching of foreign languages in school and again bnyak other schools in America and Europe who
routinely apply this method .
They have been convinced that this is
the method most suitable and most successful for teaching foreign languages in order to achieve a more harmonious and active foreign language
capabilities .
Because of this direct method is also
called the Berlitz method , because the Berlitz schools more to popularize the
use of this method continuously and they did in fact work very well .
10 . THE Communicative
Approach ( Communicative Language Teaching )
Mumbly (1978 ) refer to as the
Communicative Approach ' Communicative Syllabus ' . Widdowson call it the '
Communicative Approach ' , sedan
gkan Richards & Rogers calls it '
Communicative Language Teaching ' ( CLT ) . Terms such as Notionol - Functional
Approach or Functional Approach .
Communicative Aproach / CA (
Communicative Language Teaching ) is derived from the change in the tradition
of language teaching in the UK in the late 1960s and was reinforced by its
appearance :
- Failure Audio Lingual Method which produces foreign language speakers or danger YSA both good and fluent but not able to use the language learned in meaningful interactions .
- Chomsky's views on creativity and uniqueness of the sentence as a basic feature of a language .
CA aims to make communicative
competence ( communicative competence) as the goal of language teaching and to
develop techniques and procedures for teaching language skills based on the
interdependent aspects of language and communication . Communicative competence
includes grammatical competence , sociolinguistic , and strategies .
Communicative language ability ( communicative language ability) includes
knowledge or competence and proficiency in the application of the competency in
the use of communicative language , contextual , and appropriate .
Some descriptions of the communicative
competence of the general view that the meaning of proficiency in a language is
not just knowing the rules of grammatical systems ( phonology, syntax ,
vocabulary , and semantics ) . The focus of this method is basically the
elaboration and implementation of programs and methodologies that support a
functional language skills through learning participation in communicative
activities .
D. Class management ( how to
manage your class )
A. Need a management strategy
class
Improving the quality of education will
be achieved when the learning process is organized in a class truly effective
and useful to achieve the capability of knowledge , attitudes and skills
expected . Because, basically, the learning process is the core of the
educational process as a whole , of which the teacher is one of the important
factors in determining the success of teaching and learning in the classroom .
Therefore, teachers are required to enhance the role and competence , competent
teachers will be able to create an effective learning environment and will be
able to manage the class so that student learning outcomes are at an optimal
level .
Adam and Decey ( in Usman , 2003)
suggests the role of the teacher in the learning process is as follows :
a)
teacher as a demonstrator ,
b)
the teacher as classroom manager ,
c)
the teacher as a mediator and
facilitator , and
