Interactive Medium

Developing an interactive teaching medium is one of the solutions to deal with student diverse learning styles. This study attempted to develop an interactive medium to teach english vocabulary to young learners in the form of CD. Borg and Gall’s (1989) model of research and development which consisted of nine stages was employed. Needs analysis, planning, product development, product validation, main product revision, main field testing, operational product revision, operational field testing, and final product revision were performed. The data were gathered using interview and questionnaires. Both qualitative and quantitative data analyses were run. The result of prototype tryout to 40 fifth-grade students suggested no significant revision. Thus, the product could be tried out, at a larger scale, to 200 fifth-grade students who were selected randomly to represent ten elementary schools in Banyuwangi. Due to students different levels of proficiency, various problems appeared during the product implementation. Yet, findings of the study in general have confirmed the effectiveness of an interactive medium in improving student motivation to study English vocabulary.   Keywords: Interactive medium, English vocabulary, young

Imagine that you are an air traffic controller on a busy evening, responsible for directing 100 planes per hour heading to a major metropolitan area. (see fig. 1.) your job is to keep all these planes safely separated and on time to their destinations. To do this, you must quickly and accurately solve a multitude of distancerate- time problems. This air traffic control scenario provides an exciting, challenging, and meaningful context for prealgebra and elementary algebra students to “model and solve contextualized problems using various representations” (nCTm 2000, p. 222) that address diverse learning styles and preferences as well as different levels of mathematics preparedness.

The Relationship

<p>Previous studies have shown that students, who have high levels of metacognitive awareness, perform better achievement levels than other students.<strong> </strong>Besides,<strong> </strong>it can be said that learning styles may affect metacognitive awareness of students. In the literature, studies about metacognition focused on problem solving and learners’ mathematical achievement, improvement in metacognition, and supporting some learning environments with metacognition. Therefore, in this study, relationship between metacognitive differences, learning styles, genders and mathematics grades of the fifth grade students are examined. This study was designed as descriptive study and conducted by using relational screening model. The participants consist of 330 fifth grade students from public middle schools. Data collection tools of this study are “Metacognitive Awareness Scale for Children” and “Learning Styles Scale”. The data gathered through these scales were analyzed by using Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) 21.0. As a result, there is no statistically significant relationship between learning styles and gender. But, there is statistically significant relationship between learning styles-mathematics grades, metacognitive awareness levels<strong> </strong>(MAL)—grade levels in mathematics, MAL-gender and MAL-learning styles. Learning styles may affect individuals’ way of thinking in every moment of the life. Thus, this result has a significant part in education. In fact, parents, teachers and administrators should know metacognitive awareness and learning styles. Thus, knowing these terms can be helpful to understand how the problematic and unsuccessful students show undesirable behaviors since those students’ learning styles and metacognitive awareness levels are not considered.</p>
