Industrial Revolution 4.0, which is often called the era of disruption, is also known as the digital revolution or the information age or the so-called digital era. As an era, today's society has changed or at least harmonized its perspective and behavior with everything digital, which is different from the previous revolution, both the industrial revolution and the agricultural revolution.
In Indonesia, it has observed since 2009, which reflected in the number of people using the internet. The frequency of internet usage is getting higher from year to year. The Ministry of Communication and Information Technology (Kominfo) said that as of June 2019, there were 171 million internet users in Indonesia. Of that amount, 64.8 percent are active internet users who access entertainment content such as videos and films. That condition is undoubtedly encouraging because it has an impact on the level of digital literacy of young people and students in Indonesia.
The birth of the digital age has brought changes in many walks of life, including education. The use of technology has a positive impact on online-based learning innovation and is becoming a trend at various levels of education. However, online learning can reduce the intensity of teacher and student meetings, although character education requires strengthening the face-to-face meetings needed for the formation of noble morality.
The Japanese government has begun to introduce Society 5.0, where digital technology is applied and centered on human life. In an article written by Mayumi Fukuyama on the Japan Economic Foundation website, it is written that Japan was preparing "a brilliant society," a vision that was first introduced in 2016. Japan planned to adopt all technologies, ranging from artificial intelligence to extensive data, the use of the Internet of Things (IoT), for drones in everyday life. "This era will change habits and life in various aspects, such as health, finance, politeness, infrastructure, etc." Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe explained his vision of Community 5.0 and said that community 5.0 would be linked to data to increase future growth. Education and health services, from elementary to tertiary levels, will reach villages in remote areas.
The digital age must be responded wisely so that all related determinants can be utilized as optimal as possible for the life of humankind. In this case, college teachers (LPTK) must be able to answer the problem of how to prepare prospective teachers to have the readiness of knowledge, skills, attitudes, and behaviors that are appropriate to the characteristics of students in the digital age.
In addition to addressing the problem of education in the digital age, UPI has established the Main Employment Indicators (IKU) in 2020, which produced 1,650 indexed article processes. The target, of course, must be supported by the achievement of IKU in each unit, especially faculties. FIP itself is still constrained in achieving this goal, partly because of the long process of scientific publications by leading publishers. The first ICES, which was held in 2017, produced output that exceeded the target set with 167 articles ready to be published, 96 of which were written by faculty members from FIP. At the 2nd ICES, there are 56 articles ready to be published besides 35 articles from the UPI-UPSI conference. Articles of 3rd ICES are still in the process of publication. Hopefully there will be an increase in the number of articles published at the 4th ICES in 2020.

The research underway in our laboratory is directed towards understanding of how the structural and electronic properties of metal oxides influences their properties. To do this it is necessary to study the oxides using:
Various synthetic method, in addition to conventional solid state reaction, several synthesis method such hydrothermal, sol gel, and flux methods were employed to prepare the various materials of interests.
Bulk structure determination, the structure of the metal oxides can be determined by powder diffraction, using neutron or X-ray (laboratory and synchontron) source. The former measurements carried out in collaboration with Neutron Scattering Lab at Serpong and Bragg Institute, AUS, are particularly appropriate in determining the position of lighter elements.
Atom simulation, despite the steady increase in computer power, we are not yet able to model all physical process, so methods employing inter atomic potentials are still very useful. We are using atomic simulation methods for structure and doping predictions and complementing the lattice energy approximations.
