Perspectivas de los docentes sobre la implementación del currículo de alfabetización digital en escuelas primarias

The application of digital literacy in elementary schools is a curriculum-driven approach to create independent and student-centered learning through the effective and efficient use of digital technology. This study explores teachers' perceptions of the application of digital literacy in the curriculum to improve the quality of elementary schools. The research uses a quasi-qualitative approach. Data was collected through structured interviews with 48 teachers from 26 elementary schools, while data analysis used thematic analysis. The results of the study summarize the statements of elementary school teachers that revealed three main themes: the urgency, strategy, and positive and negative impacts of implementing digital literacy in the curriculum in elementary schools. The teachers stated that implementing digital literacy is critical because it impacts the efficiency and effectiveness of the use of school resources, improves the quality of schools, and helps develop 21st-century skills. This study concludes that school principals need to manage the curriculum and prepare regulations that regulate the availability of infrastructure for implementing digital literacy in elementary schools. This study also recommends that the Indonesian government make policies on the rules for implementing digital literacy in elementary schools and elementary schools can implement digital literacy in a sustainable manner and be prepared based on the curriculum according to the potential and culture of the school.
