It isn’t only aware about how to use it, but also how to apply the technology inside the learning process. So, every teacher can provide students’ needs of technology.
                This digital era also have an impact to the students’ thinking process. Their thinking process now is extremely different from their predecessor. Dr. Bruce D Perry of Baylor College of Medicine said that different kinds of experiences lead to different brain structures. It means that the teacher should keep updating their knowledge of technology, so they can handle this development of thinking process.
