The current millennial era has the characteristics of the postmodern era and the era of globalization, which is marked by the existence of fierce competition due to the free market demands for more just, egalitarian, humane and democratic treatment, as a result of political fragmentation, political hegemony, as result of interdependence, we must learn again from the progress of science and technology and the existence of moral decadence. Education must able to answer the challenges of the millennial era teachers are required to be creative using technology as learning resource learning media and the process of teaching and learning activities. Teachers in the millennial era must be literate in IT and technology.
