There are much to be considered when implementing teaching learning activities in order to be effective. Among others, the delivery and the behavior of students. Actually in learning activity students should be able to create excitement in their study .But it  can not be denied that many students are reluctant to follow the lessons in class because the teacher is not attractive in delivering course material as well as not paying attention to the lesson that relevant .For example, teachers still use the lecture method. It only makes students are getting bored with lengthy explanations and not draw it. On the other hand, the students a hard time understanding the theory / concepts presented by the teacher.In additional it can make students increase their knowledge so that they can master the material being taught.In the era of ICT, student touch points already begun shifting students can fulfill curiosity through search engines, a lot of interesting information media beyond schooling and lifestyle.If friend first be obedient and subject students in learning activities in class this time could have been critical of his teacher if subjects deemed irrelevant explained by contemporary teachers let alone the
difficulties involved in
providing explanations.A
professional teacher is required to manage a classroom learning behavior passionate and meaningful learning. Given the focus of interest of students can get distracted by temptation that exposed learning through ICT media therefore teachers need to shift from a one-way communication to the communication insight of learning to students.Besides ICT has become a driving force in the changes students socialize and interact with their peers. The world of mobile communications and online students make getting "stuck" for active in conveying the message through gadgets such as, sms.chatting, video streaming, email through social networking. While the students were able to form their own community group that across to social networking groups like facebook fan page for it that accommodate their interest across the region.

 
Therefore, teachers are required not only ICT literate but can follow the trend of the behavior of students in using ICT as a whole, to create a moment of truth, the most memorable moment of the students like the teacher. Besides the need for face-to-face communication that enables students to openly discuss issues that held so that at least the teacher can provide direction and guidance to the students' behavior..Because it may  not  be affected by ICT media but peer pressureThings to consider learning to be a teacher so effective was given his mental-attitude students have a critical power in assessing the unconsistency between words and actions as a teacher. Which it can reduce the respect the students as well as interest in learning.  It due to the image of a teacher is image driven and imitated,obeyed and imitated.Further we need recognize the psychological behavior of students riding the emotional scars. Students generally do not like to use the excuse or the inability of teachers in teaching as the instinct to defend itself from a sense of laziness and fragile and fighting spirit. And if students have emotional intelligence will be easier for him to adjust to less favorable conditions while focusing on his achievements. So this is where the role of the teacher students manage emotions play a full role, given the emotions can affect the concentration of students learning .. foster emotional attachment to the students is "long-term investment" but many have forgotten educators.In terms of students, class room reseach can be effectiveness of the teacher to the learner as well  absorption of individual students. The methodology may vary such as diagnostic, participants, empirical and experimental etc.. But the essence of the methodology should be able to evaluate the response of students in the learning behavior of both passive and active.The general mistakes level that occurs in evaluating the competence of students without a class action based on the research.Have ICT skills alone are not enough for teachers to influence students in a positive attitude. Given the current students are active users of ICT products with the advent of new media, especially the Internet and mobile. Both of these media is the future of the students in the media behaved considering both have advantages that are interactive. The strength is what should be in the grip of teachers to interact and communicate to students, so that both learning activities and personal relationships can deliver messages from two directions.So what kind of learning that can touch the emotional, psychological students. ..?Emotional Intelligence, aka competency personality that needs teachers when teaching right Implemantation:1. Empathy; students can feel like meeting empathy classroom teachers because emotionally and benefit  the obligations . So teacher learning is focused on student experiences delight.2. Persuasive: creating an active and positive response from all the students in class that encourages active learning.Teachers need to develop it into a learning implementation methods and tools are analytical, quantitative and verbal.3. Impact; meeting memorable class will make students have a strong memory and also great interest to learn more in the meetings conducted next.. A teacher can touch "sensory, affective, creative relations, and lifestyles with the teaching".4. Communicative, a teacher can convey a positive message to students that meet the students' motivation in learning activities. Thus the teacher must be able to communicate "engages the student's level of the senses and emotions".Educational challenge next era of ICT is the ability of a teacher to use it to progress and the best interests of students be critical point.
