Literasi Digital dan Pemanfaatan Teknologi Dalam Pembelajaran Mendalam : Urgensi Pendidik Menciptakan Pembelajaran yang Aman dan Menyenangkan

This community engagement program aimed to strengthen early childhood education (ECE) teachers’ digital literacy and their ability to use technology to support deep learning in safe and enjoyable learning environments. The program involved 25 ECE teachers in Parigi Moutong, Central Sulawesi, Indonesia, and employed a participatory approach through interactive presentations, discussions, demonstrations, hands-on practice, and mentoring. Evaluation was conducted using pre-tests, post-tests, and observations based on three indicators: understanding of digital literacy concepts and implementation in ECE, the use of technology to support deep learning, and the ability to create safe and enjoyable learning experiences. The pre-test results showed that 5 teachers (20%) were in the good category, 8 (32%) in the moderate category, and 12 (48%) in the low category. Following the program, the post-test results showed that 10 teachers (40%) were in the good category, 10 (40%) in the moderate category, and 5 (20%) in the low category. The proportion of teachers in the good category increased by 20 percentage points, while the low category decreased by 28 percentage points. The findings indicate positive improvements across all three indicators.
