Questions
:
Provide
your rationales to support your opinions in choosing a teaching model for
teaching English skills (reading, writing, listening, and speaking).
Answer
:
Cooperative Learning (CL) is a model where
students do learning activities in small groups that share the workload
relatively and ideally together to achieve a goal, and they usually receive
awards or recognition based on their performance. This learning model is also
known as a collaborative or interactive learning model, this teaching model
refers to authentic and original language learning which of course takes place
between two or more people. The aim is to create meaningful learning
experiences that will help students to develop their thinking.
This cooperative learning model combines
elements of task structure, reward structure, and authority structure. Task structures
are the mix of activities that make up the school day. The reward structure can
be based on behavior, tangible results, or rewarded performance in the form of
better grades, teacher approval, or tangible rewards. Meanwhile, the authority structure
refers to the control exercised by students over their activities, not by
teachers or other adults.
Although in cooperative learning there is an
element of competition, students are required to primarily work together
cooperatively and not competitively.
And in my opinion, the learning model with cooperative learning will be very suitable to be applied in the classroom for reading, writing, listening, and speaking skills. This is because :
1. Reading Skills with Cooperative Learning
With reading skills when studying in groups, it will allow students to work together, each of them can mark words that they think are foreign and also important, to then be able to exchange information or find out together the meaning of these words, so that their understanding will increase even more, and their vocabulary will also be richer.
2. Writing Skills with Cooperative Learning
By applying the Cooperative Learning learning model when they want to be skilled in writing, of course this will hone their understanding of how to use tenses correctly. With group learning, each of them can only master 2 or 3 tenses, and when a member of one of these groups has difficulty adjusting the tenses, he can ask other members of the group who master the tenses to help each other and explain. And when the cooperation of asking each other like this continues and is often said, it is very likely that they can memorize it by themselves. Due to repeated occurrences, it is possible for an individual to get used to it. And in fact, someone can do something because they are used to it.
3. Listening Skills with Cooperative Learning
In listening skills, the Cooperative Learning learning model is also very suitable to be applied, for example if the teacher is reading a narrative or an English reading, then for some students there must be some words spoken by the teacher who are still very foreign when they hear them, so they are not so understand what the teacher said. Therefore, with the learning method in groups, they can ask each other questions in the discussion session when the teacher has finished reading. And then, they will discuss each other, and can also ask each other what the meaning or command has been conveyed by the teacher.
4. Speaking Skills with Cooperative Learning
And for speaking skills, by applying the
Cooperative Learning method, students will be able to discuss with each other
and together formulate words in accordance with English rules in advance, so
that they will try to do the best they can, because later they will present it
to their friends in front of class to another group too. And this is also one
of the healthy competitions, because actually the Cooperative Learning method
is to have a reward structure. So that at the end of the lesson, the teacher
can give an award to one of the groups that is considered superior to the
others. And of course this can stimulate the enthusiasm for learning in each
group, which of course will also have an impact on the success of learning and
understanding for a student.
THANK YOU.
