2.7 Technology

It would appear that we have reached the limits of what it is possible to achieve with competence technology, although I should be careful with such statements, as they tend to sound pretty silly in 5 years Neuman, 2000. Technology is also play important role for our live. So, we need to think to combine the learning process with the technology. In this paper the writer use such kind of technology like computer that is used to produce the multimedia and internet. Technology is the usage and knowledge of tools, techniques, crafts, systems or methods of organization. People in the world can not live without technology because almost all of people do and need, are presented by the existent of the tools that are created with technology.

2.8 Media

This part discusses about the definition of media, types of media, and the principal of audiovisual selection.

2.8.1 Definition of Media

Media is very important in teaching learning process to help students to become effective. The use of media is badly needed to reach the purpose of teaching and learning and it should be various as stated by Hammer 2001:134 that “as language teacher, we use variety of teaching aids to explain language meaning and construction, engage students in a topic or as the basis of a whole activity”. 25 Gerlach and Elly 1980:241 propose, “A medium is any person, material, or event that establishes condition that unable learners or students to acquire knowledge, skill and attitudes”. While Sadiman et al as cited in Curriculum 2004 Diknas, 2004:12 states that media is everything that can be used to transmit a message from the sender to receiver so it can stimulate the students’ thought, feeling and attention here for the teaching learning process. It enables students to acquire knowledge, skill and attitude easily. Media has important roles in teaching learning. Sukarwati as cited in the Curriculum 2004 Diknas: 13-14 lists the function of media in general and audiovisual aids as follows. To improve the students’ motivation, it means that by using the media such as audiovisual aids can attract the student’s interest and motivation. If they are interested and motivated, they will give such attention to what is being taught or discussed. They will be curious and motivated to know about the lesson. To prevent the students’ boredom in teaching learning process, many activities can be created through applying audiovisual aid in the teaching learning process for example watching film. This activity is relatively more interesting than the activity of listening or reading that is instructed by the teacher. To make the teaching process works more systematically, it means that teaching learning process refers to the media we use. It directs the teacher and the students to do first and what then. So, the purpose of the teaching learning process can be achieved more easily. Every medium is a means to an end or to a goal, for 26 example in this study I use a computer program as a means to improve students’ skill in writing narrative text.
