The Use of Digital World in Education 

The progress of the technology and information era nowdays can't be avoided,but they should be regarded as great challenges. The progress of the tekhnology and information have huge effects not only on our life, but also on the field of education. .

1. The Influence of Technology and Information on Everyday Life

a. Negative Influence 

The negative influences of teknlologi and informtion, or digtal world on the world of education, such as, the incorrect use of HP by students, The students almost every day are busy with the mobile telephone rather than his book. 

b. Positive Influence

Media technology, such as computers and HP is one of the media that is very urgent in life, because the computer/hp can help and facilitate the work of teachers and students. A  teachers can give the task or materials of learning through SMS, Hp,or the others more easily and attractively. Bates (2015), Laurillard (2012) also addresses the strong relationship between education and technology. She recognizes technologies as being important drivers for education, even though most technologies used in education have not been specific.

 Bates (2015) states that digital technologies are most often simply added to the schools and the way they already do things. Christensen and colleagues (2008) add that the ways in which technologies are introduced into classrooms only marginally improves the way the teachers teach and the way the school is run, never allowing the schools to fully benefit from the innovations.

2. The Influence of the Digital World in the Learning Process

The more progressive age, the more advanced the world of technology and information. The progress of information and technology of course influence the world of education, and the world of education could not avoid the progress of technology and information or digital world.

The utilization of the digital world or technology and information in the activity of teaching and learning has alot of advantages, like:

- The teacher can access the material of teaching is easier
- The presentation of subject or material is more interesting
- The process of teaching and learning is more effective and effient
- The students' motivation or concentration is better
- The students gain the material of learning is easier although she/he doesn't come or attend the
    school.


Gibson (2001), in his investigation of the forms of learning and teaching most favorable to using digital technologies, describes digital technology supported learning environments that influence and affect teachers is a number of ways, namely: 
• The teachers expect more from their students and believe the students to understand more difficult concepts 
• The teachers can meet the needs of individual students more effectively 
• The teachers are more student-centered in their teaching 
• The teachers present more complex material and are willing to experiment 
• The teachers are open to multiple perspectives on problems 
• The teachers feel more professional since they help their students to learn rather than distribute and 
   transmit knowledge.

Thus, we can conclude that the existence of technology and information or digital world has a great influences on the education; therefore, the teachers or the schools should utilize  them in the process of teaching and learning activity. Do you agree with my point of view that the digital world or technology have any great influence on the education?

                                   Kebaikan & Ketulusan  Menjaga hubungan baik merupakan tindakan yang sangat mulia, namun bukanlah sesuatu yang mudah. Hal ini disebabkan oleh dua faktor yang sering terlupakan. Kita cenderung mengingat tindakan baik yang kita lakukan kepada orang lain, tetapi seringkali sulit untuk mengingat tindakan baik yang orang lain telah lakukan kepada kita. Jika kita merenungkan kedua faktor ini dengan dalam dan penuh kesadaran, hal ini dapat memiliki efek positif yang luar biasa, seperti terciptanya harmoni dan kerukunan dalam hubungan kita dengan teman, saudara, tetangga, dan lainnya.
