Being a creative teacher was not easy. Need to struggle and sacrifice. In fact, you probably will experience a pain that will take you past the peak of happiness and fame. I have learned much from Professor. Dr. Arief Rachman, my father and teacher at the school Labschool.

He is a character education and examples of creative teachers in Indonesia. Beliaulah born out of the hands of forces educators like me who try hard to be a creative teacher.

Creative teachers are never satisfied with what is in themselves. He continued to study and study until his death. For him, finding something new in learning is something that should be sought and then distributed to other teacher friends. Not easy, but this is where the challenge if we want to continue instropeksi himself in learning what we do in school. Trying to constantly improve their performance as teachers by continuing to conduct action research (CAR) in order to improve the quality pembelajarannya.Saya pak Arif recalled the message if you want to be a creative teacher, then you should cease to be a teacher complainer. Try as much as possible to empower what the school for you to use to support your learning. If later you find a tool or a medium of learning that help you deliver the material to students with a quick brain, then you should prove it with the first media to perform the TOD.

By doing your TOD will be a creative teacher. In the TOD will be found that self-reflection that you do through the cycles that you do by yourself until you feel confident that you are doing has been successful. Qualitative research tends to base words, such as interviews, while quantitative research, such figures tend to be based on test scores. You can learn about it by reading the book Class Action Research in the work of Vivienne Baumfield, et al. This book can be found easily in Gramedia bookstores or you can also direct message to the publishers index.
