Communication is needed in human life. Communication is a systematic process of exchanging information between parties through a regular symbol system. Communication
is also a discipline that studies communication that scientifically
means the process of delivering messages or information from the sender
(communicator / sender) to the receiver (receiver) by using a particular
symbol or symbol, either directly or indirectly (using media) to Get feedback (feedback). Humans exchange information through communicating to each targeted individual. Culture of communication will affect the way humans do it. Communication itself can change culture in society. The
world is changing rapidly, in the last two decades the development of
technology has been so rapidly providing its dams that touch all aspects
of human life. One of the things that developed very peat and became the trigger of the existing development is communication. In
the last development where the world of information becomes very
important in the aspects of human life, then the communication was
ultimately not negotiable and become a very important part in completing
human life. The statement confirms that the development of the era
contributed in communicating, if at a time ago Before the development of communication technology, humans can communicate to people face-to-face. But along with the development of the age and communication
technology, communication process can be done without limitation of
time, distance and place.The
development of communication technology is now very rapid, and
technological developments in some aspects have changed the pattern of
community life. A clear example of the result of the development of communication technology is the emergence of mobile phones. At
this time the use of mobile phones is not a strange thing because
almost the population of Indonesia has been using mobile phones in their
daily life. But the long distance communication tool is also experiencing rapid technological progress. The
mobile phone has switched function from a remote communication device
into a very clever object that can be used various things by
sipenggunanya. In
today's era of mobile phones is called being a smartphone, a tool that
can be used many things in addition to talking long distance or sending
short messages.
Smartphones
can be used to be personal assistants, because these tools can store
important data for business and as a reminder of what to do next by the
user. Smartphones can input applications for chat, email, phone, social media, and entertainment. Technological progress is welcomed by the masyarat of Indonesia,
especially the people of Jakarta which is almost all community groups A,
B, and C already using smatphone.
Various types and types of smartphones from the cheapest price to the most expensive price even though many people in Jakarta. The
amount of interest the public will be very large smartphone, and the
purchasing power of various elements of society is also very high. Call
it a construction worker representing the society of the class C is now
able to use the smartphone with a variety of needs. Meanwhile,
among the class A and B smartphones become an item to boost their
strata class among the community so that deviate from the basic needs of
the tool itself. No wonder the people of Jakarta are very consumptive in their lives. This
obviously has influenced the people's culture in Jakarta, a
communication tool that was originally only for the phone and sent a
short message but now a luxury item and a must to use smartphones. Besides, the smartphone is able to facilitate users in exchanging information to each individual.
With the advancement of this technology also affect the pattern of human life in getting information. Currently
all the information available from any part of the world can be easily
spread all over the world with the existence of network technology, the
digital era that uses internet systems that can make people easily and
quickly obtain information.
This change in communication technology has some impact on people's lives. Significant
positive impacts on the lines of business, workers, even school
students to college students who rely heavily on the speed of exchanging
information with each other. And can also find information spread on the internet as one of the needs of each individual enough with a smartphone. Negative impacts that can also occur in human life is the ease of
information about pronografi spread through the internet network on
smartphones.Influences in cultural aspects, of course, these changes have some positive impacts and negative impacts. The
positive impact of this technological development is the ease of
dissemination of information from the side of knowing positive things
from other cultures such as the habits of Indonesians who often stalling
time, with the development of communication technology can learn from
developed countries on how to appreciate the time and discipline that
can later be applied On the culture of Indonesian society so that can advance the nation of Indonesia.In
addition to the positive impact, the development of communication
technology can also have negative impacts of cultural aspects. The
negative impact is the lack of interest of the community to their own
culture, for example as the people of Indonesia now are more proud to
speak using a foreign language than using the Indonesian language is
actually one of the nation's identity. Not
a few also among the teenagers who prefer to learn foreign culture such
as the type of dance break-dance, sufle dance, and other types of
foreign dances than traditional dances such as kecak dance and others. This is due to the very easy variety of information obtained through the internet media.The influence of changes in communication technology also has an impact on the social life of the community. The
positive impact that can be felt from the development of this
communication technology is the ease of society in communicating with
keraba a very long distance though. With
the existence of network technology makes us able to familiarize
ourselves back with old friends, and also other relatives. With
the convenience of this does not need to wait a long time to be able to
communicate and exchange news or any event that is being experienced by
relatives or our friends as far away as before, because communicating
distance is still very limited by using the letter. But
now by using smartphones that are in content with chat apps, email,
phone, and social media we can exchange information in seconds. Besides
other positive impact is the community will be easier to spread
goodness among human beings, for example, there is a natural disaster in
a certain area then people who are close to the location can preach or
disseminate information that there is a natural disaster disaster at the
location of the person is located . Thus
if there is an organization or a particular person who wants to raise
funds to help the burden of victims of natural disasters through this
medium someone or organization will easily disseminate the information
that will make it easier to do the collection of donations to people in
need. As we know now the internet network is so vast even not only in urban areas but also in the countryside.Although
this change in communications technology has a positive impact on
society in terms of social life, it also has a negative impact. Negative
impact with the development of communication and information technology
is the decline of public awareness of the people around him. Often
encountered large family groups, complete from parents and children
along with a household assistant sitting at one table together but not
talking to each other, they seemed to be busy with their smartphonenya
to chatting with others who are more distant than His family who was nearby.This
causes adverse effects in interpersonal interactions directly can also
damage a person psychologically, beriringnya time one will be difficult
to establish face-to-face communication and build relationships with the
people around him. If
it is not prevented soon will have a very bad impact on our social
life, where people over time will be very individualistic and no longer
tone interaction or socialization is done in the real world, because the
human desire is more pleased with something that Creative, interesting and instant.
Therefore we must be wise in exploiting the development of communication technology that developed at this time. When
it comes to long distance communication as much as possible not to be
too concerned about distant relatives, we must be aware that the time
with people around us is more important to always be able to communicate
directly. Thus we can appreciate the time available to do activities with family
or relatives who are around us even as a society of Indonesia friendly
to others even though still a culture of Indonesian society.In
social life too important roles such as parents and government should
be a fence for the development of their children and society as a whole.
Having a smartphone does have many positive impacts by helping us to facilitate the activity. The
role of parents in instilling religious education in their children and
inculcate the values of life and norms that are good and bad, so that
the use of technology itself is more appropriate. The
government also took part in the supervision of the development of
communication technology by employing related ministers in the field of
communication technology. Thus the negative impact can be further filtered and minimize the negative impact itself.
