Global Education Network
Globalization provide enormous impact on life in this world,
especially in technology. in this era of globalization rapidly evolving
technologies in various sectors, such as economics, business, politics,
culture, education, and so forth. because his role is so important, then the
man was required to follow all the developments and changes that occur
particularly in the field of technology. inevitably, people must follow in order
to survive in today's era.
Technology, particularly in the education sector have a
major impact. It is reminiscent of :
- Ivan Illich forecast early '70s on "Education without school (Deschooling Society)" which suggests the existence of communities that conduct education without requiring a place called school. (Henry Wardiana; 2007).
- Alisjahbana I. (1966) argued that the approach to education and training will be "At that moment (Just on Time). New teaching techniques will be two way, collaborative and inter-disciplinary.
- Bishop G. (1989) predicted that the future of education will be supple (flexible), open, and accessible to anyone who requires without differentiating factor in the type, age, and previous education experience.
By exposure to these experts could conclude that technology
has become a master of education. can not be denied that technology plays an
important role in education, with the development of this technology and use it
in education, access to studying easier and wide open. We are increasingly free
to absorb knowledge from various scientific fields. The application of
technology in education is also easier between students and teachers to
interact, for example, the media used by teachers can not be separated from
technology or is not primitive. Access to teachers and students to learn
science in the world as there is no limit. Technology helps the students easly to leran all over the world. Therefore, the technology is very
important in education. We as human beings who live in the era of
globalization, Let's take advantage of it as much as possible. It should be noted that the technology does not always
have a positive impact for us, but the technology in this era of globalization
also had an adverse impact. As a well-educated people who let us study it again,
that the use of technology, particularly in education also need to pay
attention to certain limitations that global change is really beneficial for
us.
