Association for Education and Communication Technology AECT defines media as the things used to help the information transfer successfully. 4 In line with AECT, Association for National Education says that learning media are all kinds of communications through either written or spoken form. Media should be used as the channels to help people deliver the information. 5 Based on both definitions above, learning media can be argued as a something that supports the conveying knowledge in the educational process. Teachers may creatively organize or construct the media which are going to be implemented in the classroom depends on the instructional objective. Thus, teachers have authority to select and apply the instrument as a learning media as long as it is appropriate to the curriculum, provided facility, and capacity of school. Quoted from certain book, media is roughly defined as a mediator of communication derived from the Latin word ‘between’, the term refers to anything that carries information between speakers to receivers, and media need such equipment to deliver the information. 6 Actually, communication and media connect to each other. When people communicate with others, they directly use media to convey their intention. It is necessary to carry the information to receiver easily. Therefore, media which are used in the learning process proposes to deliver knowledge to students, and help them comprehend the delivered information quickly. Media in learning are all kinds used to convey the information in the classroom between teachers to the students. It can be printed and non-printed media. Both kinds of media should be something that can be seen, listened, and read by students. Teachers may create, organize, or construct their own media to design an interesting teaching style. In another word, learning media must be something that can be used by teachers to stimulate and attract students’ interest in learning. 4 Arief S.
