THE TECHNOLOGY PYRAMID
Technologies and the tools in the classrooms should be seen as a tool, not a methodologies. These are some situation in the classrooms where neither the students and teacher have nothing at all in terms of educational technology.

THE STUDENTS THEMSELVES
Students can be the most useful resources in the classrooms by using their thought, experiences and acting out using their body. They can be a good resources for explaining and practising the meaning by sharing : be a “living clocks” (studying about the times) using their arms and their fingers.

Cards : matching and ordering (bagus untuk kinaesthetic learners), selecting (phonetics and phonology), card games (“snap” satu kelompok gambar, satu kelompok kata)
