Therefore, Nurokhmah suggested the need for a change in the traditional paradigm to be focused on students by actively seeking information so that education provides more stimulus so that students become active learners. The teacher can utilize the supporting media of teaching learning process in digital and non-digital form, as well as various learning methods that inspire students.
