Abstract

This article focuses on a teacher identity shift in the Javanese community in nowadays digital era. Teachers in a traditional situation are those with an honorable position because of being the reference and role model for their community. In addition, the teacher is also considered as responsible for all students behaviors both in and outside the classroom. However, those teachers identities seem to have shifted due to the occurrence of socio-anthropological alteration in society. Despite these changes, they remain pivotal in terms of values learning transformation. Such a task has genuinely become their professional responsibilities. The qualitative approach in this study is to deeply investigate how the reconstruction of the teacher identity is carried out in the modern Javanese society. The findings show that in the context of Javanese peoples lives, socio-anthropological conditions have an effect to the shifting of the meaning of teachers. Teachers have been considered as only ordinary professions. It may happen because in the recent massive digital knowledge transformation, any information has been easily searched for and obtained. Consequently, the position of teachers has no longer been regarded as the only source of knowledge. Therefore, teachers need to revitalize their identities in the context of globally digital knowledge.
