Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This community service program addressed the need to improve high school students’ digital literacy and promote responsible internet use. Implemented by three lecturers and four undergraduate students from the D4 Media Production Study Program at Politeknik Indonusa Surakarta, the program involved 31 participants, slightly exceeding the target. The activities were structured in three stages: assessing baseline digital literacy and providing interactive learning on constructive internet use; guiding practical exercises in exploring and applying online resources for independent study; and facilitating reflection sessions to consolidate learning and plan follow-up actions. Pre- and post-assessments showed a substantial increase in comprehension, with high-level scores rising from 19.4% to 64.5%, and marked improvement in attitudes toward productive digital engagement. Observations indicated that students gained confidence in accessing reliable information, collaborating in group tasks, and incorporating digital tools into their learning routines. The results demonstrate that structured, participatory approaches effectively foster knowledge acquisition, positive behavioral changes, and self-directed learning, emphasizing the value of school-community collaboration in equipping adolescents with the skills to navigate digital environments responsibly.
