Meanwhile, the development of the education system is concerned with how to teach people to read, but now the education system for the community is important to develop proficiency in computers. According to Bungin, the development of information technology has undergone an evolution, starting from the era of computerization, the era of information technology, the era of information systems and the era of information globalization (Bungin, 2. can be briefly presented in Table 1 below. technology, needs to be sought and studied in order to find the right way out for human life. McLuhan saw media as the main thing that determines or influences other things. In general, this theory seeks to explain how technology, especially media, determines how individuals in society think, feel and act. His premise is that changes in the way humans communicate shape our existence and as a culturalist he argues that culture is formed based on how we To understand the above statement, this theory has three sequential frameworks of thought, namely: New discoveries in the field of communication technology cause cultural changes. Changes in human communication shape the existence of human life. AuWe shape our tools, and they in turn shape usAy. McLuhan stated that media is the core of human The dominance of media in a society determines the basis of human social organization and collective life. To explain his idea. McLuhan examines the history of human development as a society by identifying media technologies that have an important role and dominate human life at any given time and dividing them into four different media periods, namely: The flow of development of communication technology is widespread and also penetrates into all walks of life Experts are cautiously accepting this revolution in communication technology because it also has a negative impact. From historical records we can see and learn that every technological advance will have a significant impact on the development of society. Technological developments also have an influence on the political, economic and military fields. Therefore, the development of technology, especially communication Table 2.

Data communication Data communication is an important part of an information system because it supports the provision of infrastructure that allows computers to communicate with each other (Suryadi, 2. Data communication can run well if it refers to the rules or standards that have been recommended by the main international bodies that regulate . Picture 1. Communication System Components Source Recipient Media Data communication is a fairly important element because data communication provides an infrastructure that allows communication between devices or tools. The data in question is electromagnetic signals generated by the data source which are then received and sent to the receiving In order for data to be communicated properly, the The communication model consists of the following things: A Source, which generates data to be transmitted. A Transmitter which functions to convert data into signals that can be transmitted. A Transmission System which is in charge of carrying data. A Receiver which functions to convert the received signal into data. A Destination is the final data destination or data There are 3 types of data communication models based on the type of transmission channel, namely one-way transmission type (Simplex or one way transmissio. , alternating two-way transmission (Half Duplex or either Journal IJCIS homepage - https://ijcis. net/index. php/ijcis/index way transmissio. , or simultaneous two-way transmission (Full Duplex or both way transmissio.
