Abstract


This community service program aimed to enhance the digital literacy competencies of elementary school teachers at SDN Ratu Jaya 3, Cipayung, Depok. Recognizing the growing importance of digital integration in education, the program was designed and implemented by a team of university lecturers to support teachers in utilizing digital tools effectively in classroom instruction. The activities included interactive workshops, hands-on training sessions, and the introduction of various educational platforms and digital learning resources. Through this initiative, teachers were equipped with practical skills in using digital technology to support student learning, manage digital classrooms, and develop engaging learning materials. The outcomes showed a significant improvement in participants' confidence and ability to implement digital strategies in their teaching practices. This program underscores the importance of ongoing professional development to prepare educators for the demands of 21st-century learning environments.
