the differences among approach, method, technique and strategies,

English Show Program. “Content based language instruction is based
on the theory that language acquisition is based on input that is
meaningful and understandable to the learners”.

instruction which is organized around the content.

something new.

Please be focused.

4 Imelda Way to write: Garrison et al. (2000). It is a good work. Improve your style. What
theory do you use for the collaborative learning. Do you know the steps of
collaborative learning that make it different from cooperative learning? How
about the steps you have adopted/adapted here? Ibu Imelda, your work is
similar to Bpk Zaini’s; please read my feedback to Bpk Zaini. Why do you think
the theory you adopt is the best to cope with the problem?
5 Zaini Yth. Bapak Zaini, your work is similar to Ibu Imelda’s. Please read my comment
for Ibu Imelda. How do you make your collaborative instruction with Edmodo is
doable. Also, in terms of content and language development, how can you call
your instruction innovative? They work collaboratively only for developing the
ideas? To develop ideas don’t they read as extensively as possible? Writing
involves so many components to develop. In what component, is collaborative
learning more useful?

course to attain the goal you want to achieve? How about the modality?
How about each feature of SCP for extensive reading? How can students
easily get the materials to read?
8 Fitriatul Ibu Fitriatul, please start with the problem to solve. The theory to adopt. The
situational analysis perhaps. What theory of Microteaching do you use? Then
why do you land on WA, GM and YouTube? Why do you call your procedure
innovative?

diagram.
