How
to Developing the Design of Innovative Teaching Learning?
PREFEACE
Learning is an active activity students to construct
knowledge. Students themselves are responsible for the events of learning and
learning outcomes. Students themselves who do reasoning through experience and
integrate it with what is already known.
Prefer learning problem solving, developing the concept,
rather than memorizing procedures and using it to obtain a correct answer. More
learning activities characterized by experimentation, the questions and the
models generated by the students themselves.
Teacher
as the person most responsible for the child must have an attitude to creative
and innovative. Students need a teacher who can guide him reach adulthood and
discover the true identity of the student. Students should not always depend on
the teacher in learning. It is necessary to exercise the independence and
creativity of the student if he had plunged in the community.
CONTENT
In
innovative method, we change from the situation "teachers teach" to
the situation of "the children learn". Nature of the child who always
wants to know should be best utilized for education. Organizing the
school not to teach but to our children learn. The teacher is the person who is
facilitated child's learning process. He put the
children to the center of learning, helping and encouraging children to learn,
how to phrase questions, how to discuss and find answers to problems.
In general, there are five basic principles that need to be
considered, namely (1) put the issues relevant to the needs of students, (2)
develop learning around primary concepts, (3) the views of students, (4) adapt
to the needs of the learning materials students, (5) assess contextual
learning.
If we can
harness the natural experiences of the child to develop the mathematical
concepts of number, measurement and objects, in addition to maintaining the
required skills, then the kids will like math because it is relevant in everyday
life. They will realize the usefulness and beauty of mathematics because they
can be used as a communication tool of thinking. Activities in mathematics can
be used by almost all activities, whether it is social science, music or other
lessons.
In innovative
mathematics teaching success or failure is determined by several factors: a)
Selecting students, for students of different abilities despite its age the
same, b) Curriculum is good, c) Way of teaching, because teachers are factors
that greatly determine the success of students in addition to master the
methods of teaching and teachers also need to have a broad mastery of the
field, d) guidance and counseling is better, and e.) evaluation of learning
outcomes better.
Innovative teachers who have the following characteristics.
1. Students
appreciate the autonomy and initiative
2. Give
priority to the performance of students in the form of classifying, analiyze,
predict, and creative in doing their jobs.
3. Include
the responses of students in learning and teaching strategies to change the
model or in accordance with the characteristics of the subject matter.
4. Explores
students' understanding of the concepts that will be studied before sharing his
understanding of these concepts.
5. Provide
opportunities for students to discuss with other students.
6. Encourage
students to question the attitude of open inquiry that requires them to think
critically and discuss among friends.
7. Provide
ample opportunities to students in thinking about and working on tasks.
8.
Foster students' curiosity through the use of a
variety of learning models.
The characteristics innovative
mathematics, namely:
1.
Prefer the notion of innovative
mathematics to numeracy skills and memorizing
2. Prefer the use of innovative
mathematical language and terms that are more appropriate
3. Stresses of innovative
mathematics to study the structure of mathematics as a whole
Role of Teachers in Learning
Ability to be possessed by the teacher in the learning of
them have the taste and the ability to collect and analyze data, has the
ability to help student understanding, have the ability to speed up the true
creativity of students, and has the ability to work cooperatively with others.
The teachers are expected to lifelong learning in tune with the knowledge they
need to support the work and the challenges and progress of science and
technology.
Teachers are not required to have all the knowledge, but
should have sufficient knowledge in accordance with what they need, which
acquired it, and how to interpret it. In addition to the mastery of the
material, teachers are also required to have a model or a diversity of learning
strategies because there is no single model of learning that can be used to
achieve the goal of learning from a variety of topics.
If the concept of learning is understood by teachers, the
design effort of learning rather than a burden, but a challenging job. Tasks as
facilitator is relatively more severe than just a learning transmitter. Teacher
as the facilitator will have direct consequences as a scaffold, model, coach,
and mentor.
In addition, as a facilitator, more specifically the role of
teacher in learning is as expert Learners, as manager, and as a mediator. As an
expert Learners, teachers are expected to have a deep understanding of learning
materials, provide sufficient time for students, providing the problem and
alternative solutions, monitoring the process of teaching and learning, it is
difficult to change strategies when students reach the goal.
As a manager, a teacher is obliged to monitor students'
learning outcomes and the problems facing them, monitor classroom discipline
and interpersonal relationships, and monitor the correct use of time in
completing the task.
As a mediator, the teacher guides the students develop a
positive attitude toward learning, concentration, linking new information with
prior knowledge. Engage students throughout the course. Technology is used to
engage students in learning, not just for accessing content but for interacting
with other students or with the course content: learner support and resources,
instructional design, assessment and evaluation of student learning.
Examples of innovative learning models, namely: models
reasoning and problem solving, inquiry training models, and models of group
investigation. Multimedia elements can help to learning process. Range of media
formats are used to address varied learning styles. Examples: tutorials with
Screen Captures and voice over, audio clips, graphics, video clips, PowerPoint
presentations, learning objects, simulations or interactivities.
