While we prosecuted, as teacher, to always adjust teaching methods us in accordance with the demands of changing times (Alexander, 1994: 20).
      Judging from the focus, there are at least 4 (four) different views  learning how should it be implemented (Kuhs and Ball, 1986 in Grouws, 1992):
1.      The group that believes that learning should be emphasized understanding the material (content focused – conceptual understanding);
2.      Groups who argue that learning needs to be prioritize the learning outcomes (content focus - performance);
3.      The group that believes that learning should learner-centric subjects, so that they can develop and build knowledge (learner focus - construction);
4.      The group that believes that learning should starting from the planning of classroom management that is conducive to learning (classroom focused - effective classroom
      In promotion of learning innovation Cocroft Report (1982: 132) recommends that at every level education, learning should provide opportunities for teachers to using the choice of teaching methods are adjusted to the level students' abilities as follows:exposition method by the teacher; discussion method, between teachers and students and between students and students;  problems solving method;discovery (investigation) method; basic training skills and principles method; application method
