"TLL " The usage of ICT in SMA N 43 Jakarta

            In this 3rd semester, We asked to be a teacher assistant and do teaching practice in SMA N 43 Jakarta. It was my first experience to be assistant teacher and do teaching practise in senior high school. I got a lot of fun, interesting, new experience and know-Ledge there. I observed in first grade of senior high school, it is X1, X2, and X3.
            This school has 4 Floors, Some of the rooms are renovating. In one class they have white board, marker, and 2 fans (but move it so smooth, so we can not feel the wind therefore the class is very hot. They have LCD but it is in the office so, if there is a teacher wants to use it they may take it in principle room.

My mentor teacher has been teaching for 28 years, and next year she will retire. She is Digital Immigrant. So he did not know much about new technology. In language teaching teacher uses white board, markers, books, and etc. She never use digital media. Once, she  told to my friends and I in the school they have a few LCD that can be used by teachers. Because she did not know anything how to use it, how to make a power point presentation so she never use the LCD in learning process. What she do is just follow the text book, submit assignments using a paper, do a practice model such as reading a dialogue in front of the class and write something in a white board.
            I ask the teacher about why don’t teacher use 2.0 technology, blogs, facebook, tweeter,or  others. The teacher just answers that they never use that in language learning. facebook is not for study We cannot use it for study,  what can we learn from facebook. She also do not

know much about facebook, so it better to study using their text book. She said that maybe because she has been old, so she cannot follow the technology updates. She said that,

“You as a young generation of teacher you should be much better than me, you should be more creative by use many kind of technology in language teaching”.
            From my observations of students, I saw that they have a great handphone, very supportive if we want to use some technology 2.0. To take advantage of this situation if I have to teach the Same lesson I think I can do many thing. As an Example  the most familiar is facebook. Where we can discuss the material in there, I will first create a new account specifically for English language lessons and then I will open forum discussion, I will make a "status" which contained questions or anything that we can discuss. Students can give comment on it and They may discuss it with their friends, share a link, and etc.
