My learning situation picture describes how I interpret the learning itself with making a picture track. The picture track tells us about what happen with the learning and also the tools and people who related in the learning process. The first picture is ME as an important element in the learning process. After that, I drew the tools, people and places which are helping me in the learning process. The last picture means that the learning process makes me understand and knowing what I don’t know before.
My picture belongs to co-construction model of learning. The model concerned with the learner’s construction of meaning through interaction and collaboration with others, especially through the dialogue. Why? Because, in my picture I see that the learning process is not only receive material from the teacher but also through discussion. It is proven by the picture which saw the people who are talking each other.
Why we have to learn the models of learning? As an effective teacher, we have to prepare what the strategies of learning will be in the classroom. From the models, we can find the alternative ways if we failed in one method or we can combine it in order to make an effective teaching. It also represents our expectation about the learning itself.
