Since the NCTM developed the Curriculum and Evaluation Standards for School Mathematics in 1989, dramatic changes have been taking place in high school classrooms. The role of the teacher is changing. What was once a teacher-centered lecture environment is now a student-centered cooperative-Seaming environment. Evidence of this change can be seen in many classrooms as students work in teams to teach and help each other understand and develop concepts. Students are now communicating their ideas verbally as well as in writing. The teacher's role as a facilitator is emerging.

<p><strong>Abstract:</strong> Education in this globalization era is no longer teacher-centered, but student-centered. Students must be more active in the learning process, as constructivistic learning theories. This theory bases the learning process on students who construct their own knowledge. So the teacher's role is not too dominant but still provides guidance during the learning process. Through the TANDUR type quantum learning model students, besides building their own knowledge, also explore learning material and associate it with real life. So the learning process will be more fun, interesting, and arouse students' interest in learning.</p><strong>Abstrak:</strong><em> </em>Pendidikan di era globalisasi saat ini bukan lagi berorientasi pada guru, namun berfokus kepada siswa. Siswa harus lebih aktif dalam proses pembelajaran, sebagaimana terdapat dalam teori belajar konstruktivistik. Teori ini mendasarkan proses pembelajaran pada siswa yang mengonstruk sendiri pengetahuannya. Sehingga peran guru tidak terlalu dominan tapi tetap memberikan bimbingan selama proses pembelajaran. Melalui model pembelajaran kuantum tipe TANDUR, siswa dapat membangun sendiri pengetahuannya juga mengeksplorasi materi pembelajaran dan mengaitkannya dengan kehidupan sebenarnya. Dengan demikian, proses belajar mengajar akan semakin menyenangkan, menarik serta membangkitkan minat belajar siswa.

This study examined how experienced high school English teachers defined and gauged effective literature instruction as well as how their perspectives affected their students' experiences with literature. The research focused on 3 questions: (a) How did these teachers define effective literature instruction? (b) What kinds of evidence did they look for to gauge their effectiveness? and (c) How did their perceptions of effective literature instruction inform their decisions about texts and ways of reading them with students in different grade- and ability-level classes? Profiles of 5 teachers showed that they used differing models for literature instruction against which they gauged their effectiveness. Flexible, student-centered models allowed teachers to address differences among students. Inflexible, teacher-centered models often limited teachers' ability to address student needs effectively. The kinds of models the teachers used determined whether or not they were willing to listen to feedback from students and to use it to make changes in their literature curriculum.

Twenty years ago one heard very little about “guidance” in high school mathematics. Many students took mathematics only because they were required to do so, or because they were told it was good for them. Other students took no mathematics- having been misguided by wellmeaning adults. World War II temporarily usurped the role of guidance counsellor. There was little doubt as to what had to be done.

The Curriculum and Evaluation Standards for School Mathematics (NCTM 1989) states in Standard 11 for grades 9 through 12 that students should have opportunities to “use experimental and theoretical probabilities to represent and solve problems involving uncertainty.” Standard 1 emphasizes the importance of students' learning to “formulate problems from situations within and outside mathematics.” This article discusses a simply stated problem involving uncertainty that students can investigate experimentally or theoretically. The problem places students in the role of problem formulator by giving them opportunities to generate various interesting problems of their own on the basis of a given situation. By changing certain characteristics of the original problem, students can be introduced to some fundamental concepts of decision making in two-player games.

Ask anyone who has taken high school geometry, and he or she will have a notion of a proof— generally, a two-column proof of statements and reasons. The two-column proof has fallen out of favor in such reform documents as the NCTM's Curriculum and Evaluation Standards for School Mathematics, which seeks to emphasize “deductive arguments expressed orally or in sentence or paragraph form” (NCTM 1989, 126). The two-column proof is a somewhat rigid form, yet it demonstrates to the students that they may not just give statements or draw conclusions without sound mathematical reasons.
