At this time, technology has become a "main need" for humans. Technology can have a good impact when used properly. One example of the usefulness or positive impact of technology lies in the current disaster, namely the Covid-19 virus outbreak. After the Covid-19 pandemic, the government has set a policy to temporarily eliminate face-to-face learning (PTM), which was later replaced with Distance Learning (PJJ). Distance Learning (PJJ) cannot be separated from the role of technology. Along with the development of technology, there are currently many platforms that can easily find information and assist the implementation of online learning (Google, Zoom). With good and correct mastery of technology, Distance Learning will not be an obstacle for the world of education to continue to provide services for students. However, there are many problems in the use of information and communication technology in the learning process during the pandemic. The most frequent example is having very minimal understanding and knowledge in the use of technology to improve the quality of learning. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out socialization, counseling and training to the general public. The goal is to provide an understanding of the role of information and communication technology that supports learning during a pandemic, and to continue to maximize the use of technology to improve the quality of learning. Apart from the many positive impacts of information technology given to the field of education, technology also has a negative impact that mostly attacks the behavior of teenagers. Cases of the negative impact of technology include students who use google (source of information) incorrectly (cheating), students do not focus on learning because of technological distractions that seem more interesting than learning.
