CHAPTER II LITERATURE REVIEW

Teaching means a process of giving instructions of knowledge, skill, etc. Oxford Learner’s pocket dictionary, 1995:425. In other word, teaching is an
activity in transferring information or knowledge until the students get the information or knowledge well. Teaching process is guided by someone who
helps students to understand the materials well. They are called teachers. The teacher gives motivation and explains the materials to the students. The teachers
deliver the knowledge or the material to the students and the students give feedback to the teachers. A teacher has an important role because he or she is as
source of information and knowledge for the students. According to Hammer 1998:1-2, there are some criteria to be a good
teacher: a teacher should make her his lesson interesting, a teacher must love her his job, a teacher should have her his own personality, a teacher should have a
lots of knowledge and a good teacher is an entertainer in a positive sense, not in negative sense.

A. Learning
Teaching and learning are connected one another. They have same roles in making the learning process running well. There are many definitions of learning.
“Learning is a process of gaining knowledge or skill in a subject or activity”. Oxford Learner’s Pocket Dictionary 2008:250. According to Harmer, learning is
defined as “The process of accepting the knowledge” Harmer, 1998:237. Learning is an important process for the learner, because they will get knowledge
and skill to improve their ability. To make the learning process successful, the students should be active. Learning does not always happen in a formal class, but
it can happen anywhere and everywhere in daily activities From the learning process we can get some effects, from unknown to known, from misunderstand to
understand, and from unable to be able to do something. According to Douglas Brown in his book
“Principles of Language Learning and Teaching
” 2000:7, he defined the learning into some definitions:
1. Learning is acquisition or getting.
2. Learning is retention of information or skill.
3. Retention implies storage systems, memory, and cognitive organization.
4. Learning involves active, conscious focus and acting upon events
outside or inside the organism. 5.
Learning is relatively permanent but subject to forgetting. 6.
Learning involves some form of practice, perhaps reinforced practice. 7.
Learning is a change in behavior.
