Personal Recount Kinds of Recount Text

Written by W.F. Mackey in his book Language Teaching Analysis, he said that, “The use of pictures in language teaching is as ancient as the Orbis Pictus of Comenicuss 1658, written in Hungary between 1653 and 1654. For Comenius, it was above all the picture which could be most easily impressed upon the mind, giving the most real and lasting of impressions”. 21 It is clearly stated that the existence of picture has been a long time ago to give the most real and lasting of the idea. It can be said to concrete the thought of something or somebody. Based on Webster New World dictionary of American English, “Pictures are an imagine or likeliness of an object, person or scenes on a flat surface, especially by painting, drawing or photograph y”. 22 It is stated that picture is a painting, drawing or photography of something or somebody on a flat surface based on Webster dictionary. “Pictures are not just an aspect of method, but through their representation of places, objects and people they are an essential part of the overall experiences we must help our students to cope with.” 23 , stated by Andrew Wright. This statement tells that picture can help the students to understand something or somebody through its representation. It gives the students easier way in learning their material. According to Raja T. Nasr, he said that: What a person sees and does he remembers much longer than what he hears. The use of the eyes speeds up learning in all fields including language. Language must be based upon experiences, and experiences involve situations. As visual aids, pictures provide both the situations which make the use of language possible and the subjects on which language is used. 24 21 W.F.
