Based on the explanation about the key points in teaching Passive Voice which has been stated before, there are some parts of grammar should be taught by teachers to their students related to the subject of Passive Voice. Teachers should introduce the rules of language before they get students to produce passive sentence correctly. The process in introducing such information in front of people may be defined as presentation. Conducting presentation in the classroom is more emphasized on teachers because they are the source of information for their students. As the experts say that presentation can help teachers enhance the outcomes of teaching and learning because a good presentation may lead to good production. In line with the necessity of delivering good presentation to help students understand about Passive Voice, the researcher suggests Power Point, one of software from Microsoft Office, to be a learning media to facilitate the communication between teachers and students. Some theories stated in this chapter define that Power Point is a computer program provided by Microsoft Office to enable people to create a sophisticated presentation. By functioning Power Point, people may modify the information become an interesting and easily understandable talk to the audience through showing animations, pictures, and videos. Power Point can make the comprehensible input for students through the use of well-designed multimedia. By utilizing Power Point as a learning media, teachers may simplify Passive Voice subject which involves some grammar rules. Teachers can show the change of active to passive sentence through moving and running texts. Then, students will see the example of sentences through pictures, videos, and colorful presentations. The use of Power Point to teach Passive Voice may give some benefits to teachers and also students. By interesting visual and audio effects, teachers can grab students’ attention to learn. Teachers may decrease verbalization in explaining Passive Voice to avoid boredom, so it will indirectly increase students’ motivation in learning. Then, the functioning of visual, audio, and audiovisual effects can appeal students’ sense, thus it will help students process the information before storing in their mind. Good input provided for students will strengthen their ability in remembering the subject, and it leads to good output. Based on the explanation above, it is assumed that Microsoft Power Point can be an alternative media to design an entertaining Passive Voice presentation in teaching and learning process for the students. By utilizing Power Point, teachers may reinforce presentation through showing colorful pictures, videos, sound effects, and animations to get students’ attention.
