Contextual Learning Method

<data: post.body />
   
It is a holistic educational process aimed at motivating students to understand the meaning of the subject matter they are learning by linking the material to the context of their daily lives (personal, social and cultural context) so that students have the knowledge / skills that can be flexibly applied (transferred ) from one issue / context to another. . Contextual principles are essential for any learning situation. There are nine learning contexts covering students, namely:1) Objective context (What goals will be achieved?)2) Context of content (What material will be taught?)3) Source context (What learning source can be used?)4) The target context of the students (Who will learn?)5) Teacher context (Who will teach?)6) Context of method (What learning strategy is suitable to apply?)7) Result context (How will learning outcomes be measured?)8) The context of maturity (Are students already prepared with the presence of a new concept or knowledge?)9) Environmental context (In what environment do students learn?).Forms of Learning in Contextual Methods1. Relating (Relating)Example: the teacher uses a relating strategy when he or she associates a new concept with something the student already knows. Clearly, linking what students already know about new information.2. ExperiencingIt is the core of contextual learning where linking means connecting new information with new experiences and knowledge with new experiences. Learning can happen more quickly when students utilize (manipulate) equipment and materials and perform active forms of research.Example: The experience of a student when a tsunami occurs, then he will see the sea suddenly receded, then followed by big waves from the sea. Then he sketched the tsunami to be presented.3. Applying (Applying)When students apply concepts in learning activities to solve their problems, teachers can motivate students by providing realistic and relevant exercises.Example: take shelter under the table when an earthquake occurs4. Cooperation (Cooperating)Students working grouped together are usually easy to deal with complex problems with little help than students working individually. The experience of working together not only helps students learn learning materials but is consistent with the real world.Example: doing tasks in groups5. Transferring (Transferring)The function and role of teachers in this context is to create a variety of learning experiences with a focus on understanding not hapalan.Example: knowledge transfer by educator to learners through learning process.<data: post.body />

Learning takes place when students try to connect new phenomena into their knowledge structures. That is, the lesson material must match the student's abilities and must be relevant to the cognitive structure of the student. Therefore, the lesson should be related to the concepts that students already have, so that the new concepts are completely absorbed by it. Thus, students' emotional intellectual factors are involved in learning activities.      Meaningful learning is a fun lesson that will have the advantage of reaping all the information intact so that the final consequence improves the student's ...
