               In this term, I have a task to make a media for teaching English. Alhamdulillah, I choose to make a map. First, I thought what would I teaach, I remember when I learned "Direction", I need more focus, because it's so difficult to be understood. Well, here I will introduce my media.

1.      The Name of Media
Road Map - Chart
2.            The Meaning
Chart is a drawing which shows information in the form of a diagram, a map of the sea or the sky, etc. (Dian Kardijan, M.Pd)
Accordingto brown, James W. (1983;112), “to present visually ideas or concepts which are likely to be difficult to understand if they are presented in oral or written form. Chart also can highlight important points of presentations. An effective chart tends to be composed of mixture of several different types of graphics, pictures, drawings, graphs, diagram, ad verbal materials”.
3.            The Characteristic
Pictures in the charts should be big enough so the students sitting in the back of the class can still see them well. (Brown, James W : 1983)
Map is a picture that shows some locations and the ways to get the locations.
4.            The Usage
Map is used to show the locations. Why a map is used as media in teaching learning?
a.      To make students understand about position of a place;
b.     To make students understand the directions to go some places;
c.      To make the student can show the direction to go some places;
d.      To make students know and understand the vocabulary in direction.

Untukmu Bangsaku “Saya tidak seperti kamu, Kaum akademisi. Yang menggendong tas berisi buku-buku tebal, Yang hilir mudik rumah-sekolah atau rumah-kampus dengan menghabiskan ongkos dari orang tua. Saya bukan kaum intelektual. Yang mampu berbicara mengeluarkan pendapat Mengeluarkan setumpuk ilmu dari gunungan ilmu di kepala mereka. Saya bukan kaum terdidik. Yang mampu membela diri, mampu membela nusa bangsa dan tanah air. Yang setiap hari bergaul dengan modernisasi dan globalisasi. Saya bukan siswa ataupun mahasiswa Yang setiap hari dicekoki ilmu dan pengetahuan hingga ia… hingga ia mampu bicara dan berdiri tegak di zaman yang semakin mengguncang ini.” Muak aku mendengar dan selalu mendengar ungkapan ini. Tak sadarkah mereka, siapa mereka? Tak sadarkah mereka akan status yang jauh baik dari sekedar aku, seseorang yang tercatat sebagai siswa/mahasiswa, calon akademisi, calon kaum intelek. tak sadarkah mereka atas apa yang mereka dapatkan, yang tak sekedar pengetahuan...

Begitu pun manusia, yang terseret alur hidup dan permasalahannya yang semakin rumit, membuatnya percaya diri dalam mengubah setiap perspektif yang diyakininya lebih dulu. Lagi-lagi aku disadarkan seseorang, yang dulu pernah sering mengatakan, “inni uhibbuki fillahi ta’ala uti”. Dan aku selalu menjawabnya, “inni uhibbukalladzi ahbabtanillahi ta’ala” sambil tertawa geli. Dia bilang kita perlu menyatakan cinta pada sahabat kita setiap hari, dan aku selalu menjawabnya, “aku kikuk, ngga bisa ngomong langsung gitu, maaf ya?” Dan malam ini, aku mengatakannya. Ah, aku akhirnya mampu melakukannya. Aku memahami betul makna persahabatan kita, seperti akhir-akhir ini...
