Learners can easily access various information about knowledge through information technology. This reality is a challenge for educators. “In the era of the industrial revolution 4.0, the role of educators has shifted. With the presence of Google, so often students or students looking for information, literature only through Google,” he said.
Furthermore, Lanang Parwata said that there are five strategies that educators can apply in the era of the industrial revolution 4.0. The first is to help students in learning. Second, provide opportunities for students to develop and excel. Third, strengthening character education. Fourth, is technology literacy. Finally, make the teacher an effective educator. “Regarding technological literacy, the material in this activity is one of the media that needs to be developed by an educator.
