Contoh Terbaru Discussion Text.

Setelah membahas tentang apa itu Discussion Text pada posting sebelumnya, maka berikut ini kami berikan beberapa contoh Discussion Text yang terbaru. Selamat membaca dan semoga bermanfaat...


Should tablets replace textbooks in K-12 schools?

Publishing for the K-12 school market is an $8 billion industry, with three companies - McGraw-Hill, Pearson, and Houghton Mifflin Harcourt - capturing about 85% of this market.  Tablets are a $72 billion industry with 42% of US adults owning a tablet.  As tablets have become more prevalent, a new debate has formed over whether K-12 school districts should switch from print textbooks to digital textbooks on tablets and e-readers.

Proponents of tablets say that they are supported by most teachers and students, are much lighter than print textbooks, and improve standardized test scores. They say that tablets can hold hundreds of textbooks, save the environment by lowering the amount of printing, increase student interactivity and creativity, and that digital textbooks are cheaper than print textbooks. 

Opponents of tablets say that they are expensive, too distracting for students, easy to break, and costly/time-consuming to fix. They say that tablets contribute to eyestrain, headaches, and blurred vision, increase the excuses available for students not doing their homework, require costly Wi-Fi networks, and become quickly outdated as new technologies are released.

Tablets and textbooks have their own advantages and disadvantages. Whether you choose tablet or textbooks, it is totally your call. Choose the one that best suits you as a student.



The Pros and Cons of Using Vaccines

The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) recommends getting 28 doses of 10 vaccines for kids aged 0 to six. No US federal laws mandate vaccination, but all 50 states require certain vaccinations for children entering public schools. Most states offer medical and religious exemptions; and some states allow philosophical exemptions.  

Proponents say that vaccination is safe and one of the greatest health developments of the 20th century. They point out that illnesses, including rubella, diphtheria, smallpox, polio, and whooping cough, are now prevented by vaccination and millions of children’s lives are saved. They contend adverse reactions to vaccines are extremely rare.

Opponents say that children’s immune systems can deal with most infections naturally, and that injecting questionable vaccine ingredients into a child may cause side effects, including seizures, paralysis, and death. They contend that numerous studies prove that vaccines may trigger problems like autism, ADHD, and diabetes.

Choosing to have vaccination or not for children are still debatable, and the decission to use or not to use is yours.




The advantages and Disadvantages of Building Skateboard Park

There are two sides to every issue.  Whether to build a skateboard park in the community is an issue that definitely has two sides.  There are many people who believe the city should build a skateboard park to accommodate the number of skateboarders in the community.

This group feels that skateboarding is a new and upcoming sport and that city officials should allow skateboarders to enjoy it.  The city already provides basketball courts, tennis courts, racquetball courts, and more.  Among the many benefits of a skateboard park is that it would keep skateboarders off the cement driveways of banks and other public buildings.  The only reason skateboarders skate there is that they have nowhere else to go.

Those with an opposing point of view feel that there should not be a public skateboard park built. The main reasons for the disapproval have to do with safety and security.  A skateboard park has a reputation that comes with it.  Many kids that skateboard tend to be rowdy kids who don’t behave
appropriately.  Building a skateboard park attracts these kids, and it brings down the surrounding neighborhoods in the area.

Choosing to build a skateboard park or not is still debatable in our community. But, it depends on the government’s policies. The good and bad effects must always be considered by them.

Here is An Innovative New Category Cards Game




Hi guys, here is an innovative cards game that I invented to improve my students' vocabularies. It's very attractive game to play and all of my students really love to play it even in their free time in the class. It can be played by anyone in various levels of English. Besides improving vocabularies, the purpose of playing this is getting fun, fun, fun and fun.

I have 5 sets of cards, Animals, Things, Jobs, Transports and Activities. Each of them has 60 cards, 60 vocabularies. So, after playing this game  hopefully the students will be able to memorize the vocabularies without feeling bored. They will be happy to do it and never realize that they are actually learning vocabularies. 

This game is not very complicated to play. The teacher needs to give the explanation and demonstration before playing it and next, students only need some practices to learn this game.


Do you want to try it in your class? Here are some samples of my cards..
If you are interested to have it, you can call or message me at :

What Is Icebreaker for?

Icebreakers can play an important role in helping young people integrate and
connect with one another in a group environment.

Icebreakers can also enhance
your teaching by helping to stimulate cooperation and participation. They can
provide positive momentum for small group study and discussion by:


  •   Helping a new group get to know one another. 
  •   Helping new members to integrate into a group. 
  •   Helping young people feel comfortable together. 
  •   Encouraging cooperation. 
  •   Encouraging listening to others. 
  •   Encouraging working together. 
  •   Encouraging young people to break out of their cliques. 
  •   Developing social skills. 
  •   Building a rapport with leaders. 
  •   Creating a good atmosphere for learning and participation. 
What should be prepared?


A 10 SECOND CHECK LIST! 
  •   Be enthusiastic, whatever happens, be enthusiastic! 
  •   Choose volunteers carefully and don't cause embarrassment. 
  •   If something is not working move quickly on to the next activity. 
  •   Timing is important. Don't flog them to death. Use only 2 or 3 icebreakers as a 20-30 minutes     introduction to your programme. Finish each icebreaker while young people are still enjoying it. 
  •   Choose icebreakers appropriate for your age group. No group is the same and your understanding of what will and will not work with your group is a core youth work skill.

DOWNLOAD POWER POINT PRESENTATION, SIMPLE PAST TENSE WITH " TO BE"



Hi, guys..Posting ini melanjutkan posting terdahulu tentang Media Pembelajaran Simple Present Tense. Kali ini kita akan membahas Simple Past Tense With "Be". Kadangkala kita masih mengalami kesulitan ketika kita membedakan kalimat Simple Past Tense yang menggunakan "To Be" (Was & Were) dengan yang tanpa "Be".

Nah, sebenarnya prinsipnya sama dengan tenses yang lain, bahwa kita menggunakan " To Be" suntuk kalimat nominal yaitu kalimat yang predikatnya terdiri dari Kata Benda (Noun), Kata Sifat (Adjective) atau Kata Keterangan (Adverb).

Misalnya :
I was so happy yesterday. Perhatikan bahwa Subject I diikuti oleh Kata Sifat (Adjective) "happy".
They were at school last week. Subject "They" diikuti oleh Kata Keterangan (Adverb) "at school".
He was a student of SMA 2 years ago. Subject "He" diikuti oleh kata Benda (Noun) "a student".

Mudah bukan?? Oke, untuk lebih mudahnya anda bisa mendowload File Presentation di sini...
Selamat belajar, semoga sukses.
