as a result of rapid population growth rate in Indonesia 2.0, or about three and a half
million new man born in one year and technological advances on the other hand, in
many developed countries even in Indonesia, efforts made toward improvement of
teaching especially concerning aspects of quantity turned to science and technology. Eg
teaching through radio, teaching through television, distance learning system through
the system module, the engine of teaching computer, or even learning to use the system
E-learning electronic learning is learning, both formally and informally conducted
through electronic media, such as internet , CD-ROM, video tape, DVD, TV, mobile
phone, PDA, and others Lende, 2004. However, e-learning is more dominant
learning to use the internet.
Yet teachers are still needed. For example in teaching modules, the role of
teachers as mentors to learn is very much emphasized. In teaching through radio,
teachers are still needed, especially in developing
and developed
a design
instruction. Similarly, in teaching through television.
Thus, in any teaching system, the teacher has always been an integral part, only
the role it plays will vary according to the demands system. In the teaching or learning
process the teacher role as director and actor. That is, in teacher duty and responsibility to
plan and carry out teaching in schools.
As already disclosed above, that the role of a teacher is very significant in the
process of learning the role of teachers in the learning process involves many things such
as teaching, class manager, supervisor, motivator, counselor, explorers, etc. Which
will be presented here is considered to be the most dominant role and classification of
teachers as a demonstrator, the manager manager
class, mediator
facilitator, evaluator
1. Teacher as a demonstrator
Through its role as a demonstrator, lecturer, or lecturer, teacher should always
mastered the material or subject matter to be taught and constantly develop it in the sense
of increasing its ability in terms of their knowledge as this will greatly determine the
learning outcomes achieved by students. One of the things that must be considered by the
teacher is that he himself was a student. This means that teachers must learn continuously.
In this way he would enrich himself with a variety of science as a provision in his duties
as a demonstrator to be able to demonstrate what he taught Didactic. The idea is that it
conveys what it actually owned by students.
2. Teachers as manager class
Teaching successfully means there must be an active student involvement in
learning. Both go hand in hand, none of which predate between teaching and learning
because each has a role that influence one another. Success success is determined by
the teachers teach students in learning activities, as well as student success in
learning is also determined by the role of teachers in teaching. Teaching means
conveying or transmitting knowledge and vision Ad. Rooijakkers, 1990: 1. William
Burton argued that teaching is defined effort to provide stimulus, guidance, direction, and
encouragement to students so that learning occurs. In this case the role of the teacher is
very important in managing the class to enable the going well.
Teaching is an activity activities that teachers do in the classroom or school
environment. In the process of teaching, there must be goals to be achieved by
teachers that
students understand,
understand, and be able to apply the knowledge they gained. The purpose of
teaching is also interpreted as a way to hold the desired changes in the behavior of a
student Muchtar Samsu, 2001: 39.
In this case of course the teacher expects students to learn, both in the school
hours or after he received material from the teacher. According Sagala 2003: 12,
learning is an individual activity acquire the knowledge, attitudes, and skills by learning
how to process materials. The learning process will take place properly if teachers
and students alike understand what materials will be studied resulting in an active

interaction in the classroom and this is the key to success in teaching. Thus the learning
process takes place in the student. Learning is a process in which a person intentionally
managed environment to enable students participate respond to specific situations he
faced Corey, 1986: 195
Students as a subject of study, has the view hope in him for a teacher who they
think is successful classroom teaching. Students assess successful teacher teaching it
is the teacher who: • do not make students bored and scared
• have a sense of humor • not easily upset
• wanted to have a dialogue with students • appreciate the students’ opinions and not
easily blame • appreciate the presence of students
• no favoritism toward students • master and explain the material well and
understood by students and would expose students back when there were not clear not
understood.
Turns diverse student opinion that none of them considers the success of a
teacher if a whole class of complete current competency test quiz. If so, whether the
completeness of the test to be unnecessary? The students replied that the thoroughness of
the examination is part of the responsibility of students to learn because it is related to
individual success. However, as teachers, we are certainly not going to relinquish
responsibility for student learning outcomes. In addition to students, the author was a bit
can describe the opinions of the teachers about the topic. The father and teacher
mother taught successfully found it: • if the student can receive the material
teaching materials and the results fit the expected target,
• If students listened enthusiastically and provide in-depth questions about the material
they receive and apply it, • if the program is reached in time, the
material can be absorbed by the student, and there is a change in the student
• if it is able to make the students understand what is being taught by the teacher, and there
are changes in students, and they feel comfortable in the PBM,
• if it can deliver the material in a manner method is good and interesting, students
understand and respond in a positive, active, and good evaluation results,
• if a classroom atmosphere conducive to learning,
• if there is active interaction in the PBM, changes occur in all aspects.
Of the various opinions on the above can be authors conclude that teaching
successfully is if the teacher can provide materials to students with media and methods
are interesting, create a conducive learning atmosphere in the classroom so as to create
an active learning interactions. So will be the process of changes in students not only on
learning outcomes but also on the behavior and attitudes.
So, teach with success is not merely impart knowledge which are cognitive, but in
it there should be a change of thinking, an attitude, and a willingness to keep learning so
that students want. The emergence of the spirit of learning in students to seek other
sources of learning is one indication that successful teachers teaching the students.
Thus the success in teaching is how the students were motivated to want to continue
to learn so that they will be humans learners. How? As a teacher would let us open
ourselves
and see
clearly what
the expectations of students in us.
