This limitation is quite extensive and includes in-depth understanding of the source, the environment, human and methods used for the purpose of learning / training.
Instructional media encompasses all the materials and physical means an instructor might use to implement instruction and facilitate students' achievement of instructional objectives. This may include traditional materials such as chalkboards, handouts, charts, slides, overheads, real objects, and videotape or film, as well newer materials and methods such as computers, DVDs, CD-ROMs, the Internet, and interactive video conferencing.
The Roles of Instructional Media
The Roles of Instructional Media, among others:
1.Clarify the presentation of the material in order to not only be verbal (in the form of written words or writing).
2. Overcome the limitations of space, time and the senses, because according to experts absorption ability of humans to understand the problems with the five senses, namely: 1) Ear (hearing) 13%, 2) Eyes (vision) 75%, 3) nose (olfactory) 3 %, 4) Leather 6%, 5) tongue (taste) 3%.
3.Use appropriate and varied media can overcome the passive nature of the students.
4.Avoid misunderstanding of an object and concept.
5.Connecting the real with the unreal.
Kinds of Media in Instruction (Including the advantages and disadvantages)
1. Visual Media
Is the media which rely on the sense of sight. This media is no display still images such as film strips (film series), slides (frame) photographs, drawings, or paintings and prints. There are also visual media that displays images or symbols that moves like a silent film, cartoons.

Excess visual media is in this media, students can see objects that are shown in the teacher in the learning process so that students know what the object is being explained and studied.
Weakness visual media that is in the media is only faculties visionaries who honed his ability, so students only able to see the image without sharpening the sense of touch and the sense of hearing, and limited to those who had abnormal vision or blindness.
2. Media auditif
Is the media that rely on voice capabilities, such as radios, cassette recorders, etc. This media is not suitable for the deaf or have a hearing disorder.
Is the media that rely on voice capabilities, such as radios, cassette recorders, etc. This media is not suitable for the deaf or have a hearing disorder.
Excess auditif media is in this media can focus more students because students are required to be more sensitive in the hearing. So the students' skills in listening can be honed.
Weakness auditory media that is in the media is only sharpen auditory only, without being able to sharpen the other senses such as the sense of sight and touch. Also the media is very limited for those who had abnormal hearing impaired.
3. Audio-visual Media
Is a media that has elements of sound and image elements. These media types have the ability better, because both types of media which includes first and second.

Excess audio-visual media in the media that include all aspects of auditory, and tactile viewing. So the ability of all the senses can be honed well as used with balanced and shared.
Weakness audio-visual media are cost limitations and their application should be able to cover all aspects of the sense of hearing, sight and touch.
Types Of Learning Media For Detailed Of the three types of instructional media above, can be developed kind commonly applied in related learning activities. Here are the types of instructional media in detail as well as the strengths and weaknesses of each. That is ; Print, Transparency, Audio, Slide Sound, Interactive Multimedia, E-learning.
1. Print
Print technology is a way to produce or deliver the material, such as books and static visual materials mainly through mechanical or photographic printing process.

2. Transparency
Advantages:
- Its use is practical
- Does not require a dark room. Therefore students or learners can watch while noting
- Easy to operate, so it does not require special operator
- Teachers can present it face to face with the students / learners.

Disadvantages:
- Requires equipment for appearance, is Overhead Projector
- Requires special arrangement
- Requires special skills in the making
- Demanding a systematic way because the arrangement is chaotic sequence.

3. Audio
Advantages:
- Imaginative
- Individual
- Relatively cheaper
- Mobile
- Can stimulate the active participation of listeners
- It is appropriate for the material of music and language
- Overcoming the limits of time and space
- Radio: actually, it can reach a wide audience, the live broadcast, it cannot be repeated
- Records: it can be played back, it can be used to re-record

Disadvantages:
- One-way communication
- Abstract, especially with regard to the number, size, counting, etc.
- Auditory, thus requiring concentration in listening
- Radio: cannot be repeated, there is control on the radio station, vulnerable to the weather, if it does not attract listeners switch other stations
- Records: can be erased, can tangle, cannot be stored longer
