The Importance of Technology in Education Sector ?

            There is no stopping technology and education. Technology is in the straightway or even a long far way. And education is in behind or the same way. Nowadays education can be showed as an activity which has encouragement to other sectors. It can be counted as a future development. The development can not be stopped or even moved. The dynamic of these activities can be showed as a change of the human itself. The value of discovery is more equal with the human wishes to be better. In the same way, we must understand the technology, the education and the connection between technology and education.

            According to the environment observation that I ever had, technology is the one of tools, media, or system to inform or solve information and problem. In other words, with technology we will take many benefits and also another impact. Technology can be side-effect of the education or it can be opposite. Thus, education is efforts which have to create condition of teaching learning process. By keeping those good efforts we can take education as a supporter in the development of technology. And the development purpose makes the learner to be active. In hence, the education can be resulted from the potential development as Intelligence Quotient (IQ), Emotional Quotient (EQ) and Spiritual Quotient (SQ). Although those quotients have own percentages. For the example IQ is not the only one main aspect to be marked, but it must be concluded EQ and SQ aspect. All of them, technology and education have influences. Just as technology is in their capacity, so also education is in that way to educate person. It is especially for human. Technology is used in education innovation. It means, there is continuing between technology and education in innovation. But as a teacher or event student must be selective. The innovation of technology has not been taken directly. It considers the benefit and impact of the technology. Technology is not only based on the cheap or expensiveness the price but also the usefulness to the user in education. As a learner for the future, we have to prevent the bad things of technology or use technology in education that has no benefit and reduce the human right to explore their ability and chances. A new generation should change the influences of technology in education step by step. In contrast, we can add some education learning deeply before going to explore technology. So, influences of human activities in technology can be identified as an effect or causes of problem in education if we cannot control technology well.

            Education is one of the arts in teaching. Art is used in education system to make  learner comfortable with the educator in teaching learning process. Creativity of educator takes hold the role. The part of an art can be looked when an educator can draw a soul of student in studying passion. How student do their activities with all of happiness and no forcing. In teaching learning process, we can use many methods or education system. In creative method, we can invite the learner to be active or even interesting to the materials and especially the educator. On the other hand, education still may give a role obligation to face off technology. The relation between education and technology innovations can stimulate learner to be scientific thinking and be objective to give solution. Of course, the education is the first part that we must increase than others. We can arrange the education to play the role of technology development. We see that the role of education in relation with technology is development of thinking systematically, creative, innovative and realistic to be realized in application of technology. 

            Technology and education have many mutualisms interest in connection. Each of them can make the different impact. The connection between education and technology is mutual Corporation about the result and process which can influence each other. Good education will be followed by the great technology. The connection of technology and education is if the good education can walk together with developing of technology.  It is like to produce active learners we must be ready with the facilities. For example we can give them a complete library, e-book materials and information, LCD as a learning media, networking area etc. All the things can improve them and give place to create their creativity. Besides technology is as a facilitator of education, education and technology can be related and build the development of learner. It is not only good in education but also the knowledge of technology for delivering the materials. Then, it is not easy to make it real. Selectiveness and creativities are needed to improve it. For example, when we have to give English materials to the learners, we can use applications of the technology as a teaching media. We can make games for giving a task. It is like simple games with many application materials. We can also give online tutorial, independent assessment, team work additional duties and use different presentation in PPT, Webquest, Prezi etc. And as the learner believe that all of creative materials can stay to their mind and create a memorable thinking in student’s brain. It is easy to be saved and used again if someday they will need it. Some other improvements in connections are also needed to increase benefit. It can be like adding the sum of facilities, repairing wrong thing quickly, making everything comfortable, following workshop or competition, etc. Finally, the connection between technology and education can become the best thing.

            In short, technology in education can be implemented as a new innovation continuously. As a media in education, technology can inform or solve information quickly but still effectively. Along in the same lines, education also has role in teaching. Both of them have some relation. In same purpose to build education to be better with pushing of technology can make new innovation for the future development. We should create new innovation and prepare whatever the development increase or high contrast changing of technology and education in the next future. How and why education is still the first thing that we must build. Therefore, the importance of technology is in education part. We should think that the education must be built first to create different thing in technology development.
