Learning Strategy (Strategi Belajar)

Learning Strategies are the thoughts and actions that help make learning easier or more effective.

The learning strategy for this lesson is Respond. In many everyday situations, we have to respond to what we hear. Speaking English as a second language might make it hard for you to respond quickly. The strategy respond is part of listening actively. After listening to what the other person says, you respond on the same topic.

Jonathan at a Food Truck

In the video, Jonathan listens to the food truck worker. She says they are out of shrimp. Jonathan responds. First, he repeats the sentence, "Oh, you're out of shrimp." That shows he understands. Second, he asks for a different dish. "I'll have the beef, then."

When you talk with someone in English, how do you usually respond? Write to us in the Comments section or send us an email. Teachers, see the Lesson Plan for more details on teaching this strategy.

Strategi belajar adalah gagasan dan tindakan yang akan mempermudah pembelajaran dan membuatnya lebih efektif.

Strategi belajar untuk pelajaran ini adalah Respond atau merespon. Dalam berbagai situasi, kita harus merespon apa yang kita dengar. Karena bahasa Inggris adalah bahasa kedua Anda, mungkin Anda kesulitan merespon cepat. Strategi respond adalah bagian dari mendengarkan dengan aktif. Setelah mendengarkan apa yang dikatakan orang lain, Anda merespon dengan topik yang sama.

Di video ini, Jonathan mendengarkan staff food truck. Ia mengatakan mereka kehabisan udang. Jonathan menjawab. Pertama, ia mengulang kalimatnya, "Oh, you're out of shrimp." Dan itu menunjukkan ia memahami pertanyaannya. Yang kedua, ia meminta makanan lain. "I'll have the beef, then."
