        Dalam penjelesanya mengenai dampak ICT dalam kehidupan sosial yang kompleks, dengan perkembangan pengetahuan dan teknologi serta pola pikir masyarakat yang harus direspon positif,  disimpulkan :

"The challenge for education in a technical society is complex. The complexity relates to the development of science and technology which can displace human-life existence. Social impacts of ICT need proactive response so that the ICT use at schools does not negatively affect the learning process. In this process, in order to anticipate its negative impacts, both teachers and parents always need communicative and critical dialogues. ICT implementation needs school strategies so that the schools can always sonduct character education by using ICT as medium. In this case, school condition in implementing ICT needs to consider the aspects of stay safe, be healty, enjoy and achieve, achievement economic well being, and make a positive
contribution.
The right uses of ICT for students can help the process of character building in children. However, this requires a positive appreciation towards the existence of ICT because it can actually give additional scientific insights which re useful in responding the challenge of science-technology development. Nonetheless, this challenge actually motivates students even more to learn and to improve the achievement as well as to maintain their self-belief in the flow of information revolution."
