Introduction
We can think or imagination about mathematics. And talking mathematics have same way. This way is like having an imaginaton line that divides between traditional teaching and innovative teaching. In the schools, both of methods are often in teaching learning activities. And they also have different characteristics. What are the characteristic of both methods is that many schools are using it ?
Content (about innovative and traditional learning)
Between traditional teaching and innovative teaching there is an imagination line. There's a line in the world (in our imagination), a world system in which there are things that distinguish between two things. The things in the world include the characteristics, religion, phylosophy, paradigm, theorities, design, scheme, models, program, aktivities, and example.
We know that our self is world, but we need to characteristic to different with other. Only who have a lot of experiences we can find our charactheristic. We are trying to analyse about traditional and innovative teaching. Both the teaching is often applied in the school.
About Innovative Teaching Learning
We have four pillars of education, there are learning to know , learning to do, learning to live together, learning to be. Learning goal of innovative are wisdom (values) , knowledge (internalized), information, and data (discrete). Curriculum need for : facilitator of the learning process, which is individualized and allows time to complete the learning cycles.
Innovative Teaching Methods : Cooperative learning, action research, role play , participate learning, seminar adnd discussion, paper persentation, case studies, projects, field visits, brain stroming, guided self-study, internship.
In innovative teaching, the teacher as a facilitator for the students. The paradigm (system) is construc of knowledge by the students. Moreover, the pros of innovative teaching method in teaching help a lot where there is a centered classroom which is created by the teacher and accepted by the students. In innovative teaching, students are aware of their learning process through the computers. Thus with the help of computers teachers prepare their work in their thumb drive and present it to the class through slides show which is an easier way. And students can do their studying and their work all in the computer without depending 100% on their teacher in schools. Innovative teaching is a long term and the process such as mathematics is students himself.
About Traditional Teaching Learning
Traditional teaching is concerned with the teacher being the controller of the learning environment. Power and responsibility are held by the teacher and they play the role of instructor (in the form of lectures) and decision maker (in regards to cirriculum content and specific outcomes). They regard students as having 'knowledge holes' that need to be filled with information. In short, the traditional teacher views that it is the teacher that causes learning to occur (Novak, 1998).
Learning is cheifly associated within the classroom and is often competitive. The lesson's content and delivery are considered to be most important and students master knowledge through drill and practice (such as rote learning). Content need not be learned in context. (Theroux 2002, Johnson &Johnson 1991).
In traditional teaching, the teacher totally control his/her students. The paradigm (system) is transfer of knowledge by the teacher. Traditional lerning still adopts the behaviorism, consider the students as an empty vessel, just as an investment education is not a requirment.
Conlusion
So, innovative lerning and traditional learning is totally different. In the schools at our country, the teacher sill predominantly used the traditional lerning because they are sometimes reluctant to make innovations in learning. They prefer to used traditional lerning they think it is easier and less complecated. But if teachers are willing to use innovative learning, the students will not fell bored in mathematics learning and teacing aid because the method used is more diverse, it can help students understand the lesson. Indeed the teaching methods should be balance because it both brings good intentions in educating a person for the better future of everyone. Thus it sends out the same message even in different way but yet it is useful.
