In the world of education this has a tremendous impact. Education today is not just to insight and make smart. Education today is shifting toward analytical and intelligence analyzing information very much.

Education in many countries should be prepared for this. In this case the central role is held by the teacher as the first gate that bersebtuhan with students. A teacher should not reject technology but a teacher must be able to control information.

In this case there are some points I want to point out, this is related to the role of the teacher in charge of his job.

Hi-Tech

The term Hi-Tech I mean for teachers who must be able to master all the computerized innovations. Teachers must be able to learn new things about the digital world. This is so easy to teach. With these various tools, teachers are certainly able to present a fresh new nuada.

Analytical

Currently the world of education is no longer focusing on instant knowledge or reproducing information. Currently education is focused on improving analytical and problem-solving skills. Power analysis can not be taught instantly but slowly. And before a teacher educates his students to be intelligent then himself must be smart.

Reference

In the digital world many things are invalid. Each foam document is easily changed. Therefore, a teacher becomes a reference center that must be able to absorb information from other sources to be more valid. A teacher will be the place to ask students and if a teacher loses his or her analytical power and is incapable of becoming a reference then the educational world will be chaotic.

Filtration

This is very important. In today's digital world we have excess information that must be filtered very well. The flow of misinformation can harm many things. People can chaos only by posting erroneously on social media. The filtration system must start from the world of education or litarasi.
