Abstract: This study aims to examine the impact of strengthening digital literacy on students' interest in learning and academic abilities in Natural and Social Science (IPAS) education. Digital literacy is an essential competency in facing educational challenges in the digital era, particularly in enhancing concept comprehension and critical and analytical thinking skills. This research uses a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design and a pretest-posttest non-equivalent control group. The subjects of the study consisted of 102 students from four classes at MI Nasyiatul Mubtadiin Duwet Wates Kediri. The experimental group received treatment through strengthening digital literacy using interactive media, digital learning platforms, and online information navigation training, while the control group followed conventional learning. The instruments used were cognitive ability tests and a learning interest questionnaire. Data were analyzed using a t-test to compare the results between the experimental and control groups. The findings revealed significant differences between the pretest and posttest scores of the experimental group compared to the control group in terms of both learning interest and academic ability. Strengthening digital literacy plays a crucial role in creating an engaging, interactive learning environment that encourages active student participation. In conclusion, strengthening digital literacy in IPAS education has a positive effect on students' learning interest and academic abilities. Keywords: digital literacy, learning interest, academic ability, IPAS education, quasi-experiment.
