“In welcoming the first 21st-century learning, ladies and gentlemen, of course, we must first understand the context in which we are now, where we are now active, and the challenges ahead, so that first, we will try to unravel and analyze the phenomena and characteristics of learning. 21st century. Then, secondly, we will analyze the characteristics of students, especially children today, which is called the possible generation, which will be facilitated by you ladies and gentlemen, is the alpha generation, which they are already attached to with ICT tools, so we need to understand the characteristics of children. at an early age, because these characteristics become the main basis for us to manipulate learning,” he explained.
