PERAN LITERASI DIGITAL DALAM PENDIDIKAN BAHASA INDONESIA DI UPN "VETERAN" JAWA TIMUR

Abstract

The development of information technology requires the general public to acquire basic skills related to digital concepts themselves.  Given the acceleration of digital technology today, the ability to find and use information sources effectively is crucial.  In the context of digital literacy, each individual needs diverse access to digital devices, various forms of expression, communication strategies, and the ability to analyze, design, reflect and act.  This article presents some initial thoughts on the impact of digital literacy and the language learning challenges associated with implementing digital literacy.  This research uses a quantitative method by collecting data through an online questionnaire (Google Form) which was distributed to UPN "Veteran" East Java students.  The questionnaire contains questions about the role of digital literacy in Indonesian language education at UPN "Veteran" East Java.  The positive impact of digital literacy on Indonesian language learning includes supporting the learning process, identifying quality, meaningful and useful learning resources, as well as providing opportunities for lecturers to increase their productivity through the use of digital educational media.  This can also improve the character of UPN "Veteran" East Java students.  This model involves active communication and collaboration in learning and research activities, and involves elements of individual competence such as usage skills, critical understanding, and communication skills.  This research contributes to the development of a digital literacy model through the use of e-learning.
