Abstract

To use the discussion method in a lesson, the Christian Religious Education teachers must understand well the principles and basics of the discussion method. They should do understand what the essence of the discussion material is. This paper shows that it is essential to understand and master the discussion method as a teacher before using it. For this reason, a teacher is required to have skills regarding this discussion method. This paper presents the phenomena of classroom action research that applied two cycles before using the discussion method and after applying the technique in an elementary school in Jayapura, Indonesia.
