Education has a very important role in human life because without education humans will not be able to develop. At present, changes in educational patterns that occur are one of the characteristics of the globalization era known as the 21st Century. So teachers must be able to make one-step changes both in terms of methods and learning models. In dealing with changes in the education system in the 21st century, planning is certainly needed so that the process of implementing education can be truly directed. In this 21st century learning, not only by relying on the field of knowledge but the field of skills also plays a role so that teachers and students must be ready to take new steps in facing this era. The research used is using a qualitative research approach using the Library Research method (literary study) by describing articles related to education studies in the 21st century. The results of this study indicate that the development of science and technology is currently not an obstacle for teachers to be. Teachers or educators in the 21st century are expected to be able to design and plan innovative learning so as to create a comfortable atmosphere to make it easier for students to face the times and compete in the national and international arena.
