Information and communication technology (ICT) is the main support for the implementation of globalization. With the support of information and communication technology, information in any form and for various purposes, can be disseminated easily so it can quickly affect the outlook and lifestyle to the culture of a nation. The speed of information flow that can quickly overwhelm us as if it never gives us the opportunity to absorb the mental filters and critical attitude. The more sophisticated the technology support, the greater the flow of information can be streamed with the reach and global impact. Therefore, it is known principle of "free flow of information" in the form of two-way process that can be balanced enough to give each other influence each other.

But remember, the impact of globalization with the support of information and communication technology (ICT), covering two sides of the positive and negative influences. Positive influence can be felt in the presence of ICTs is the increased speed, precision, accuracy and convenience that provide efficiency in various fields, especially in a matter of time, effort and cost. For example ICT manifestation that is easily seen all around us is sending letters require only a short time, because the presence of electronic mail (email), the calculation accuracy can be enhanced by the existence of numerical computing, management of large amounts of data can also be done easily is to database (database), and much more.

While the negative impact that could emerge due to ICT, such as the economic aspects of globalization, the opening of the free market allows the entry of foreign products with ease. With so many foreign products and ditambahnya relatively cheaper prices can reduce the sense of affection of domestic product. With the loss of a sense of love towards domestic product showed reduced symptoms of our society a sense of nationalism to the nation of Indonesia.

In essence the technology was created, since the past until now intended to assist and provide facilities in various aspects of life, both at the time people work, communicate, and even to solve various complicated problems arising in society. ICT not only assist and facilitate people but also offer new ways of doing those activities that may affect people's culture that have been previously embedded.

Culture or culture is a frame of reference for the behavior of his supporters in the form of values ​​(truth, beauty, justice, humanity, wisdom, etc.) that are influential as a framework to form a view of human life are relatively permanent and can be seen from the citizens of that culture to determine his attitude toward a variety of symptoms and life events.

So how ICT can affect the values ​​that have been growing in society in a nation that depends on the attitude of the community. Should, people should be selective and critical of ICT is growing very rapidly, so that all the positive benefits that is contained in ICT can be manifested to be able to assist and facilitate people's lives, and the negative effects can be minimized.

How is the effort to maintain the value - the value of culture in public life? There are some things that should be done by humans in an attempt to shield themselves from the negative flow of technology. Some things include:
1. Introducing the importance of values ​​- cultural values ​​to children from an early age
2. Provides an understanding to children, communities and other elements of how vital the value - the value of culture to life
3. Provide restrictions on the negative things that go in life and the life of a society
4. Making the value - the value of culture as the spearhead of the norm of family and community life
5. Uphold values ​​- cultural values
6. Looking at the technology with all the advances and changes in a positive sense
7. Using the facilities of technology advancement for the good and positive thing
8. As parents are obliged to provide extra supervision to children, both in the use of technology or daily life.Description: The Influence of Technology on Culture Rating: 4.5 Reviewer: seputarwisata.com - ItemReviewed: The Influence of Technology on Culture

Now, when independence was more than 59 years, the issue of education in Indonesia is still facing many problems and even crash. Many education experts argued that the deterioration of the Indonesian nation today is the direct or indirect result of government policy mistakes of the New Order (1966-1998) who do not care about education, for example for the education sector only budgeted only 7% of the Budget (Budget and Expenditure State), while Malaysia and Thailand at that time already budgeted for more than 20% for his education from the state budget. This budget issue though is not the only factor, but its existence has huge implications for the progress of the nation.

After the collapse of the New Order regime, and now Indonesia is in the advanced democracies began, many problems still continue to haunt the world of education in Indonesia. As reported by Political and Economic Risk Consultancy (PERC) headquartered in Hong Kong, announced the results of its survey on the assessment of the quality of education in the Asian region which put Indonesia as the country worst their education in Asia and even one level below that of Vietnam. In addition, the quality of human resources in Indonesia are also low, as outlined in the Human Development Index (HDI) in 2004. At this time Indonesia was ranked 110 of 173 countries, the worst in Southeast Asia. Variables used in calculating HDI covers three strategic areas of development: education, health and economy.

Then, how do we mensikapi phenomena of our nation above adversity? It is difficult indeed to change the nation's problems that its population of more than 210 million inhabitants. Yet the future of our nation will face a tough challenge, concerning the life of Indonesian people nationally and in global life among the peoples of the world.

The main key to the success of education for our nation's future is how far we remain optimistic look to the future, without losing rationality us to always self-correct and improve the existing shortcomings. Glimmer of optimism has now started to appear, for example can be seen from the total education budget that will be increased to 20% of the national budget. No responsibility educational estimate increase is stipulated in the amendment of the 1945 Constitution. Although until now the realization is still not visible, but optimism for the realization of the mandate of the 1945 Constitution that must be maintained. Moreover, our nation has become a Democratic nation in the eyes of the international world (after the 2004 elections became the country's largest democracy after the U.S. and India), and this became the capital essential for the progress of a nation's identity.

Optimism alone is not enough if not followed by concrete steps. Then, what concrete steps can we do to improve the quality of our education for the future? Of course the answer is very very much, but the authors try to answer is simple. Some simple answers below can also as a reflection for both us ponder.

First, education is the responsibility of all citizens, not just the responsibility of the school. Consequently all citizens have a moral obligation to save education. So supposedly there are citizens who can not schools just because they do not have money, then the citizens of rich countries or relatively wealthy have a moral obligation to become foster parents for the continuation of school children who are not lucky. (Remember! Due to the prolonged crisis, the number of children drop out of school this year to reach tens of millions of children across Indonesia).

Second, the authors believe the paradigm which says that "education begins from family". This paradigm is important to be owned by all parents to shape the future of the human character of this nation. Family is the most environment first and foremost felt by a child, even since I was in the womb. Therefore, the enlightening education on family and child capable of forming a pious character and creative capital is important for children's success in subsequent periods.

Third, educational curriculum, teaching methodology, evaluation system and the welfare of teachers, also is the important thing to keep in repair. Problems curriculum for example can be seen from the dense curriculum or too many lessons also be a separate issue that often inhibit creativity although  student teacher. The author is actually more in agreement if the school system to apply credits (Semester Credit System), where students are given the freedom to choose a compulsory subject and any provision of choice and the minimum number of credits that must be resolved so that the stated pass a certain education level. (Especially for junior high and high school levels .) Moreover, if the credit system is combined with the Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC), may be more to make students enjoy learning. Problems of teaching methodology also needs to be developed (this is the obligation of teachers). While the problem of evaluation systems also need to be improved, such as the National Examination problem which is still disputed. And the problem of teachers' welfare, it also needs to look at. Because, how can teachers be fun to teach while performing their welfare affairs. Or how can teachers teach not stutter and information technology, while he had no money to buy magazines, journals, new books, let alone buy a computer that can access easily to the internet!?. Therefore, the welfare of teachers should also be considered.

Fourth, to improve the quality of education for the future of assertiveness is also necessary to enforce the rules of education play a consistent and consequent. Schools often do not appreciate students who are studying seriously, the proof is a lot of students who learn baseball, lazy, its value is always red, but also to the next grade! Just 100% always the next grade. It's just means do not appreciate kids really learn. Because that would take it easy the next grade. And also at the same time do not educate children to learn to deal with risk. Therefore do not be surprised if human mental Indonesia tend to baseball dare to take risks, because the schools are not taught to deal with risk.?

Fifth, education was not only to educate children in a single category of intelligence, such as only intellectual intelligence (IQ) but also to develop other intelligence-intelligence. As spiritual intelligence (SQ), intelligence taste (EQ), and intelligence  (AQ), and so forth. Or psychologists call it a Multiple Intelligence. Therefore, one of the causes of our nation in a protracted crisis of our nation as well as poor or rather poor SQ . Therefore, the things that are spiritual as well be something important to keep on guard and developed through education. Included also formed the spirit of team work, pluralism, and optimistic needs to be developed in schools, for example, could be through extracurricular activities, student council, and religious activities. That's why since the beginning of Ki Hajar Dewantara founded Taman Siswa school also emphasizes education blossom flavor.

Sixth, begin to change them yourself. The reason for the progress of our nation's future should be able to start from ourselves. Of course, by continuing to improve the quality of self. Is not the progress of a nation can not be realized with the behavior of relaxed and loungingDescription: Reflections on Education for the Future Rating: 4.5 Reviewer: seputarwisata.com - ItemReviewed: Reflections on Education for the Future
