Study
is one of many important topics which students meet every day. Study is their
task and main demand. As task, Students often feel that study is
hard-difficult-and-boring thing. Moreover study with
just-listen-someone-speak-there method or reading book at all their time,
students going to feel bored and sleepy.
For
facing this problem, education scientists made another method called peer
discussing group method. This method was made to make study activity became
more fun and enjoyable for students. In this method, students collect
information actively and share the information which they got and discuss it
with their friends in the group in accordance with the main topic of the task.
Although
peer discussing group method is considered as enjoyable studying method,
actually many people judge that this method is not efficient at all. Actually, many people consider that this method is not efficient at all. This is why this method when it will be realized in the
real world it is so
difficult. One of these assumptions is that group members often lose focus on the main
issues. It happens because
so much information and ideas from each member of the group that mingled into one and it make discussion
activity run from the main issues slowly. But this assumption was refused by
discussion which has a good regulation. With the good regulation in the
discussing activity, peer discussing group method will walk easily and stay in
order. It peacefulness can made by put a chairman in the group the he/she will
help their group to still talk about the topic with the enjoyable method.
Besides
that, peer discussing group also time-wasting because there are many kind of
people, the students in the discussion group, and their character as some children
and teenagers. Adolescents
and children is a period in which an individual is still unstable and more
playful than serious discussion, discuss can change become
another conversation with another issues, or worse the discussion become a joke
event. And this assumption can break because the discussion group can make a
discussion’s schedule to direct the way of discussion. So, the discussion will
not walk out from the main topic.
There are other
assumptions related to time wasting. This assumption says that discusses a
waste of time for students to make just talking about the same topic of
discussion in all the time and just walk in place without any progress and a
better conclusion, just make stagnation. But
the bad assumption that it's exactly the positive impact on students. The material they discuss their memories tied in with
strong, they are also trained express their ideas, respect for others, and
mature thinking.
Basically, the method of learning by creating peer groups to
discuss is one method that is quite pleasant and eliminate boredom learners in
their learning activities. The assumption is that this discussion is just a
waste of time because it does not focus or other problems can be rebutted with
a focused discussion and scheduled. Should not such a tight schedule, the
schedule is pretty flexible, comfortable, and stay focused
