CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTION
1.1. Background
Technological developments have made many remarkable progress. Many things from life sector
that has used the existence of the technology itself. Presence has a considerable impact on the lives
of human beings in various aspects and dimensions. Likewise with the communication technology
is hardware equipment in the organizational structure that contains social value that enables
individuals to collect, process and exchange information (in Rogers, 1986). Such a situation, in
which a technology capable of changing something that may not be possible to be a reality. For
example, if the first person can not talk to other people who are in a place that is far away, then after
the phone people can talk without limits of time and distance. From here, beginning with the
discovery of a variety of simple devices, ranging from phones, analog-based, developed and
developing countries continue to emerge many other electronic devices. Until finally this
technology integrate with one another. Existing communication technology is an answer from any
of the times. This occurs because of growing human civilization developed a technology that will
continue to experience growth pattern to align civilization itself.
The term information technology became popular in the late 70s. In the past the term information
technology or computer technology called electronic data processing (electronic data processing).
Information technology is defined as technology processing and dissemination of data using
hardware (hardware) and software (software), computer, communications, and digital electronics.
Information and communication technology is an important element in the life of the nation. The
role of information technology in human activity at this time was so great. Information technology
has become the main facility for the activities of the various sectors of life which contributed
greatly to the change - a fundamental change in the operation and management of organizational
structure, education, transportation, health and research. Therefore it is very important to increase
the ability of the human resources (HR) ICT, ranging from skills and knowledge, planning,
operation, maintenance and supervision, as well as increasing the ability of ICT leaders in
government, education, corporate, SME (small and medium enterprises) and NGOs. So that in the
end will produce output that is useful to humans as individuals themselves and for all sectors of life.

CHAPTER II
DISCUSSION
2.1. Information and Communication Technology
Judging from the wording, information and communication technology is composed of 3 (three)
each word has its own meaning. The first word, technology, means the development and application
of tools, machines, materials and processes that help people complete the problem. The term
technology is often portray discovery of new tools using the principles and processes of scientific
discovery. Said second and third, information and communication, closely related to the data.
Means of information processing results, manipulation and organizing a group of data that gives
the value of knowledge (knowledge) for its users. Communication is a process of delivering
information (messages, ideas, ideas) from one party to another to enable the interplay between the
two. In general, communication is done by using the words (verbal) that can be understood by both
parties. If no verbal language that can be understood by both, communication can still be done nonverbally using body movements or showing certain attitudes, such as smiling, shaking his head, or a
shrugged.

2.2 Development of Communication Technology


Current technology needs, both information technology and telecommunications are very
high from the start of middle class and upper middle class. All individuals desperately need
technology to accelerate the development or increase the development of both individual and group
development. Technological development today is very fast communication technology, which
presents a selection of forms of technology and sophistication. The development of the
communication itself is actually in line with the life and existence of man himself. There are four
major defining point in the history of human communication. According Nordenstreng and Varis
(1973) are:
1. Acquisition (aquisition) language that is at the same time with the birth of man.
2. alongside the development of the art of writing based on speech communication. reproduction of
the written word (written words) by using alt printer, so
3. enable the realization of the actual mass communication.
4. the advent of electronic communication, starting from the telegraph, telephone, radio, television,
to satellite.
Subsequent developments have progressed a step a little better, for example, in a letter
pictograf form of communication used by the Sumerians, hierogliph by the Ancient Egyptians. At
that time both types of letters are also often used when a king gives a kind of regulatory rules for
the people who will put in the middle of the city where the shape is like building the monument,
known as Act-shaped memorial. Advancement of communication technology felt better after the
invention of paper by the Chinese people made from Papyrus leaf fibers. This development even
today is still used and very useful for mankind. Such as the paper used in printing newspapers or
newspapers, magazines, books and so forth.

2.3. Implications of IT and Internet Education


IT and Internet history can not be separated from education. Internet in the United States began
to grow from the academic environment (NSFNET), as told in the book "Nerds 2.0.1". Similarly,
the Internet in Indonesia began to grow within the academic (in the UI and ITB), although it
appears the exciting stories in the field of business. May need to be propagated stories about the
benefits of the Internet for education. The existence of open Internet resources that had been
inaccessible. Access to resources not being again.
Library is one of expensive resources. (How many libraries in Indonesia, and how the quality
is?.) The Internet allows a person in Indonesia to access the library in the United States.
Mechanisms library access can be done by using a special program (typically using Z39.50
standard, such WAIS5),
Distance learning and the virtual university is a new application for the Internet. In fact no
less than economists Peter Drucker said that "Triggered by the internet, continuing adult education
may wll Become our greatest growth industry". (See Forbes magazine article May 15, 2000.)
Virtual university scalable characteristics, which can provide education accessible to many people.
If education is only done in a regular classroom, how many people can participate in a class? The
number of participants may only be charged 50 people. Virtual university can be accessed by
anyone, from anywhere. For Indonesia, the benefits already mentioned above can be a good reason
to make the Internet as an educational infrastructure. To summarize the benefits of the Internet for
education in Indonesia.

2.4. Communication Technology in Education


Of the many new discoveries that turned out very broad impact for a human civilization in
the various areas of life, one of which is education. Development of technology and
communication in the fields of education, development of technology and communication in
education, According to Rosenberg (2001), with this development there are five shifts in the
learning process, namely: (1) from training to performance, (2) from the classroom to the place
where and at any time, (3) of the paper to "on line" or channel, (4) physical facilities to network
facilities, (5) from time to time cycle shifts the learning process changes from paper to "On -Line
"to date has been its presence can be felt or seen as an educational institution to implement a
computerized system. Many things as well as the benefits of its existence.
Such as education all activities are easily accessible via a computer network or the internet
that is certainly the case thanks to the satellite which is operated, the student, student, teacher,
lecturer or all citizens in the sphere of education are able to obtain all the information to be obtained
. most recent example is the development of "Cyber Teaching" or virtual teaching, the teaching
process is carried out by using the internet.
Another term poluper today is e-learning is a model of learning by using media communication
technology (internet). According to Rosenberg (2001: 28), e-learning is the use of Internet
technology in the delivery of learning in a wide range with a foundation based on three criteria such
as:
(1) E-learning is networked with the ability to update, store, distribute, and share materials or
information,
2) Delivery up to the end users through a computer using standard Internet technology,
(3) Focusing on the most expansive view of learning behind traditional learning paradigms.
Nowadays e-learning has evolved in a variety of ICT-based learning model as: CBT (Computer
Based Training), CBI (Computer Based Instruction), Distance Learning, Distance Education, CLE
(Cybernetic Learning Environment), Desktop Videoconferencing and so on. (Quoted from http :/ /
puskom.man3malang.com/index.php? Com_conte option = t & task = view & id = 21 & Itemid =
26, Prof.. Dr.. H. Mohamad Surya).
. For now, many other examples as above but beyond the scope of the school or college, for
example, there is a kind of educational institution or course guidance tutoring using computer
media (internet) to access the materials and exams as well as the test via the Internet. Surely this is
a step forward in the context of education. In addition to the development of communication
technology in education has touched the scope of learning systems in the academic field, actually
have been encroaching on other aspects (although still within the scope of education).

CHAPTER III
CLOSING
3.1. CONCLUSION
Technology is now increasingly experiencing rapid growth in all aspects of human life. As well,
when we talk about communication technology, it has also experienced growth. Whereas
communication technology itself according to Rogers, 1986 is a hardware equipment in the
organizational structure that contains social value that enables individuals to collect, process and
exchange information. Of the former in the days primif still very simple form of communication,
then growing and growing until finally comes the digital era as it is today. Of it is also explained
that there are three kinds of civilizations according to Alvin Toffler namely, agricultural age, the
industrial age and the last time information (quoted from the Perspective of Communication
Technology Background & Progress, Zulkarimein Nasution). Communication technologies in
education itself is now also experiencing extraordinary change where the presence of sophisticated
communication technology has brought a lot of significant impact for the development of education
itself. Can be seen in the development of such a nature that the learning system of e-learning, as
well as other matters of a technical nature ie with the computer, then the education offices provide
convenience in data collection and so forth.
Over it all, the development of communication technology itself remains essentially carry a very
wide range of effects, both positive and negative impacts. When the positive impact a bigger role, it
will be very beneficial in life. Makes them a very easy job. Conversely, when the development of
the communication technology more display negative impact, it will appear new problems such as
cyber crime and so forth. For every user that has the technology to be critical and skeptical attitude
toward communication technologies ..

3.2.Recommendations
Information technology is a technology that is very easy for us in terms i including in education.
The more the technology is getting more and moret so our work becomes easier to do. positive side,
technology has a negative side as well. Once we know the impact caused by the development of
information and communication technology in we should take advantage of every available
technology is good technology a maximum and can also avoid the negative effects that can harm us.
