Teaching English By Using Multimedia For 9th Grade Of Junior High School: Best Practices During Pandemic Covid-19
Abstract
The best practice aims to describe the use of multimedia (Powtoon) in teaching
procedure text in 9th grade of junior high school. How is the use of multimedia in
teaching procedure text in 9th grade of junior high school? From the writer reflection
after doing the best practice, I learned that the use of multimedia makes the students
not engaged in the learning material. I learned that as a teacher we have to pay attention
to the student’s interest while learning in a pandemic situation. By using Powtoon as
learning media and google form as their platform to do their assignment, google
classroom unables the writer as the internship pre-service teacher to upload content
knowledge related to procedure text by using powtoon as learning media. Students can
access prior knowledge from the learning platform but in the learning process they are
still passive and not engaged. Therefore, Powtoon facilitates students more to be
engage and understand in learning Procedure Text in English. As a suggestion for the
next internship, pre-service teacher must have many methods and strategies to
implemantation powtoon and google classroom so that students are more engage in the
learning material to be taught.
