Power Point presentation make the teacher tends to practice delivery method with the following characteristics:
1. Teacher dominate initiation
2. Teacher dominate talking
3. Teacher dominate the class activities
4. Teacher dominate question
5. Teacher deliver the problems and not expect that the students doing so
6. Teacher guide to solve the problem
7. Teacher practices guide teaching
8. Teacher practices directed teaching
9. The teacher seem to have not a perception that the student need to be active.
10 Teacher question "Are you clear" seem to conclude and control the students.
11. At the end of the lesson the teacher distribute the worksheet however they are still as a collection of problems.
12. Teacher delivers her suggestion to the students seemed to control the class situation.
13. Conclusion: teaching learning process is still teacher centered orinted
Additional Question from Mrs Arie Wahyuningsih:

TEACHER 2: lAMINTO (Sukoharjo, Central Java)
Topic: Proportion
Grade : 7 Junior High School
Activity: The teacher posing the some problems
a. Problem1: As we add more water to a container holding some water, the weight of the water increase
b. Problem2: The more strength we use to push an object, the greater the acceleration of the object?
Can we predict how the weight of water or the acceleration of the object will change?
The teacher further to communicate the problems to the students and explain every aspect for solving the problems:
Comment from peer:
A. Pujiastuti (SMP 1 Surakarta, Central Jawa)
1. The pictures in the first slide make me confuse. It is better to use table to show the problems
B. Martutwuri Handayani (SMPN 1 Magelang Central Jawa)
1. It is better for the teacher not always to sit down
2. Not every content can be used by Power Point

Supervisor's Obervation: (Marsigit)
1. The teacher initiates the ideas
2. The teacher uses the Power Point presentation to deliver the explanation in such away that teacher styles of teaching is characterized as:
a. The teacher implements directed teaching
b. The teacher implements guided teaching
c. The teacher dominate initiation
d. There is no indication that the teacher encourage initiation
3. From the explanation of the problems the teacher then let the students to define what does the direct proportion?
4. There is a student to answer: The direct proportion is if one part of the proportion is added the the other part is added also.
5. The teacher resume the students answer then to explain to the whole class. So the teacher uses students answer to give more explanation and to conclude the meaning of direct proportion
6. The teacher continues to give orally the other problem referred to Power Point to the whole class and asked the students to answer his question.
7. The teacher uses long closed sentences to explain and to guide the whole students
8. The teacher continue to explain to the whole class based on his power point.
9. Even for solving the problems the teacher always refer to Power Point while sitting and read by word and deliver it the the whole class.
10. At the end the teacher read from power point " What can we learn from this"
11. The teacher conclude for himself his explanation and ultimately asked the students whether they have understood clearly.
12. The teacher then give another problem however the teacher itself try to solve the problem orally and deliver to the whole class.
13. The teacher continue to give another problem however the teacher itself try to solve the problem orally and deliver to the whole class.
14. Conclusion: the teacher implements traditional teaching
TEACHER 3 : Sukamti SPd, SMP N 5 Sragen Central Jawa
Topic: The Are of Triangle
Grade: 7 Junior High School
Objective:
Apperseption: Remember the homework, Have no problem with your hoework?, Do you remember the area of rectangle, Q-A on the area of rectangle-teacher uses whiteboard to draw a skecth of rectangle
Proses:
Teacher use Power Point to:
- show the process of finding the area of triangle from the area of rectangle
- the area of rectangle A= L x W
- the teacher explain that from the area of rectangle we can determine the area of triangle.
- the teacher question if we have the area of rectangle A = L x W the what is the area of triangle ? student answer La = 1/2 (L x W)
- the teacher ask the students to conclude that the area of triangle is La = 1/2 (L x W)
- any question, Noo..., Thank you
- How about the following triangle (different triangle) is there any different formula for the area? Students choirly aswer: No.
- Then, the teacher deliver one problem by writing it at the white board
- The teacher guided students to answer word by word of the process of using the formula.
- Any question? Noo. No?
Conclusion:
- The teacher lets the students to conclude
- The teacher chose one student and guide him to come into conclusion that the area of triangle is 1/2 x base x height
- Any question? No?
- Okey, ..
- The teacher read the conclusion for herself that: " If A is the area of triangle whose base is b and height is h, then the area of the triangle can be stated as: A = 1/2 (b x h)"
-the teacher give the students: Student Worksheet
The teacher chose one students to solve one problem in front of the class, check, tru or false?, True. and praise, all students applause.
Repeating above activity up to three times
- At the end of the lesson the teacher give the students Evaluation
Comment 1: Laminto SMP N 1 Sukoharjo Cenral Jawa
- the last slide the conclussion is for the right triangle why the students solve the other?
Comment 2: Hasman (English)
- communication in Englih is very good
- no much mistake of the grammar
Comment 3: Supervisor
- the structure of lesson is clearer than yesterday lesson
- the teacher not only use Power Point but also use white board
to conduct the procces of teaching learning
- however, the teacher dominates initiation and class communication and class situation
- the teacher still implements directed and guided teaching
- the students are still more passive
- because of the room setting then the teacher seems not to develop the schema for interaction
In conclusion: the teacher has an effort to perform innovative teaching but there are still many constraints.One of the constraint is coming from the teacher itself i.e. delivering teaching and domination the class as well as still not trust on the students competencies to develop problems.
TEACHER 4: Zubaidah, SMPN3 Kota Langsa Nanggro Aceh Darussalam
Topic: Intersection and Union of Two Sets
Introduction/Apperception:
- Teacher: What is the set
- Student: A set is a collection
- Teacher: Give me example
- Other Students: The collection of four leg animal
- Teacher : Ari, give me universal set, only example
-Student : the collection of flowers
Problem 1:
Nana likes {pop music, jazz music, dhangdut music}
How do you express in sentence:
Student: Nana like ... music
Teacher: yes
Budi likes = {jazz music, rock music, blues music}
How do you express about Nana and Budi?
The teacher and the student, firstly answer together, however the teacher continue to explain and write in the white board as follows:
Nana and Budi = { jazz music}
A and B = {jazz music}
The teacher guided the students and write in white board:
Nana and B = { P, M, J, d, R, B}
The teacher then show the Venn Diagram using Power Point
Next, the teacher show the problem using Power Point:
Given A = {1,3,5,7,9}, B = {2,3,4,5}, C = {1,5,9}. D= {6,8,10}
List the element and determine:
1. A and B, 2 A or B, 3 A and D. 4. Draw the Venn Diagram
The teacher then chose one student to solve the problem in front of the class.
While one student solve the problem, the teacher pays attention and wait and so their students.
The teacher invite one student (Laminto) to come to front to conclude the problem.
Laminto: Using bilingual to explain his conclusion. First in English then explain in Indonesian. ... saling lepas ...(no intersection). Finish. Applause
The teacher resume and revise the student's work.
The teacher shows the key answer using Power Point and chose othe students to come forward to continue solving the problem.
Students answer: 1) A U B = {1,2,3,4,5,7,9}, 2) AUC = {1,3,5,7,9},
3) AUD = {
The teacher then chose the other student to come forward to draw the diagram.
The teacher communicate to the whole class one solution to have a confirmation from the students. Then she chose other students to come forward to solve other students.
The teacher comments on students works and revise as well as to judge whether the solution is right or wrong.
Can you conclude about the intersection and union set? No students answer.
The student resume to explain and expects students to conclude. However, they still silent.
Then the teacher chose one students to come forward to write the answer in the sentence form as follow:
A and B = { x/x is member of A and B}
The teacher poses and read the conclusion on Power Point as follow:
- The intersection of two sets A and B is a set which consists of all element common to A and B, formally it is written as the following notion:
....
How about this day lesson, good? Students: Swear it is good.
Comment 1: Martutwuri SMP n 1 Magelang
