REVIEW OF LITERATURE

2.1   Definition of media

Based on Heinich, (1993), The word "media" comes from the Latin word is the plural of the word "medium". Literally the word means an intermediary or an introduction.

Available types of media include printed, audio, visual, audiovisual, real object. Print usually refers to newspapers, magazines and book. Electronic media are usually referred to as broadcast media, or radio and television.

Media provides many benefits to users expecially in school element, such as:

·         Meets the needs of students to be wise consumers of media, managers of information and responsible producers of their ideas using the powerful multimedia tools of a global media culture.

·         Students can bring the media into the classroom connects learning with "real life" and validates their media culture as a rich environment for learning.

·         Gives students and teachers alike a common approach to critical thinking that, when internalized, becomes second nature for life.

·         Increases the ability and proficiency of students to communicate and disseminate their thoughts and ideas in a wide range of print and electronic media forms and even international venues.

·         Media literacy's "inquiry process" transforms teaching and frees the teacher to learn along with students becoming a "guide on the side" rather than a "sage on the stage."

·         By focusing on process skills rather than content knowledge, students gain the ability to analyze any message in any media and thus are empowered for living all their lives in a media-saturated culture.

In my observations directly into the 7 D-class for 2X40 minutes, there are basic media such as tables, chairs, white board, markers, and etc. and there are teacher and students, teacher named Mala Hartati, S.Pd. In teaching and learning activities, I made some observations. at the time the material is about family, every student already has a book and LKS. In opening teacher first explain about the family, and create a family chart on the board.

After that  the teacher asked students to tell their families, this is very interesting, because students with a passion to tell his family, and I like it. After that teachers instruct students to open the book and the teacher pointed to each student to read the story and answer the direct question that has been available in books.

And than I take data in a direct interview (simpe dialogue) with the English teachers, by using Indonesian, namely: Mala Hartati,S.Pd, she teach in the 7D classroom:

Saya              :  Mam, dalam mengajar media apa yang biasa mam gunakan?

Guru             : Tergantung materinya, tapi yang jelas untuk materi sekarang tentang family mam menggunakan text book yaitu LKS dan buku paket

Saya              : Bagaimana dengan media yang lain mam, seperti LCD, TV, laptop, dan lain-lain

Guru             : LCD kita ada, tapi sangat terbatas jadi untuk menggunakannya sangat jarang sekali, bahkan mam belum pernah menggunakannya. Heee….. (she smiled )

Saya              : Ohh, hee…emm bagaimana dengan metode pembelajarannya mam?

Guru             : Yaa, kayaknya sama saja dengan guru-guru yang lain, seperti metode picture dan example, belajar yang menggunakan gambar dan contoh, kemudian metode ask the students, kemudian metode debat antara pro dan konta dalam suatu masalah, emm… apalagi yaa,, ???? oh ya dengan metode Team Games Tournament (TGT), metode ini pernah  mam gunakan, untuk memancing daya piker siswa, tapi jarang, hee… tapi semuanya sesuai dengan materi apa yang sedang di pelajari

Saya              : Dari berbagai media dan metode, menurut mam mana yang paling murid sukai?

Guru             : Mereka banyak yang suka yang tadi seperti games, debat, dengan metode ini mereka memiliki antusias yang tinggi, terkadang kelas jadi rebut, tapi mam sangat suka degan keeadaan seperti ini. Kalau masalah media, mereka biasa aja, maksudnya mengikuti, seperti untuk materi sekarang mam Cuma menggunakan text book

Saya              : Ooh begitu ya mam, saya rasa sudah lebih dari cukup ni mam, maaf ya mam sudah mengganggu, dan terima kasih banyak atas waktu dan kerja samanya.

Guru             : Sama – sama,, ya gak apa-apa, mam juga pernah seperti kalian

Saya              : Saya permisi yam am, assalamualiukum
