TRANSFORMASI PENDIDIKAN PADA ERA DIGITAL: LITERASI BERBASIS SASTRA DIGITAL SEBAGAI UPAYA PENGUATAN KARAKTER PESERTA DIDIK

Abstract

The development of digital technology has brought about major changes in the education system, especially in the way students access, understand, and construct knowledge. However, this transformation has also brought about new problems, such as a decline in interest in reading traditional literature, weak social empathy, and personality degradation due to uncontrolled consumption of digital media. The aim of this article is to analyze how digital literature-based literacy can be an effective strategy for strengthening students' personalities in the digital age. The research method used is a literature review with a qualitative descriptive approach, which involves the analysis of various sources such as scientific journals, research reports, and digital literacy learning methods based on literature. The results show that the integration of digital literature- Like interactive poetry, digital short stories and virtual plays can foster moral sensitivity, empathy, and social responsibility through aesthetic and reflective experiences that remain relevant to students’ digital world. Furthermore, the use of digital platforms as a medium for evaluating and producing literature can strengthen critical, creative, and collaborative thinking skills. Thus, digital literary literacy serves not only as a means of adapting to educational changes in the digital age but also as a tool for strengthening a personality grounded in humanistic values.
