“…The presentation of data in the form of a questionnaire was to view and present data in the form of a percentage as a reference to see the high and low percentages of ICT skills objectively in elementary schools in the border area of Cirebon. The indicator measured was the grade V elementary school students' ICT literacy skill, consisting of three aspects: basic skills to operate ICT devices, the ability to explore information using ICT devices, and the ability to communicate using ICT devices (Cirus, 2014;Fisser & Thijs, 2015). Besides, measurements were also carried out on the ownership of ICT devices and the ICT devices' time of use by students as supporting data in measuring students' ICT literacy levels.…”

The rapid development of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in the 21st century has influenced various aspects of people’s lives, one of which is in the educational field. ICT has a vital role in the development of learning systems. This study aims to analyze the elementary school students’ ICT literacy skills in the border area of Cirebon Regency. The research method used was a survey method with a quantitative descriptive approach. Data collection techniques utilized a questionnaire. The research sample consisted of 157 grade V elementary school students in the Sedong Sub-district located on the border of Cirebon Regency, Indonesia. The results showed that 82% of students had ICT devices, such as laptops, smartphones, or tablets, with 61% of students accustomed to using ICT devices in their daily lives for between 2-6 hours per day. However, the students’ ICT literacy level was still at level 1 out of 6 levels. Only 32% of students used ICT devices to find information as needed, and 27% of students utilized ICT devices for discussion about learning. Students used it more for entertainment, such as listening to music, watching videos, playing games, and joking with their friends on social media. In this case, students need guidance and direction in using ICT devices to be used as needed in daily life even though they are in the border area between regions. This study’s benefit is to see the percentage of elementary school students’ ICT literacy level as a preliminary study for other ongoing studies.

In these countries, curricula are developed in which components such as teacher skills, teaching materials, measurementand evaluation techniques are integrated to develop students" 21 st century skills (Fisser & Thijs, 2015).…”

The study adopted document analysis, one of the qualitative research methods, and employed descriptive analysis technique in data analysis.Partnership21 framework was used as the frame of reference in addressing research data.As a result, the 2018 LSClearning outcomes and the texts and activities in the Life Studies textbooks were found to aimat developing critical thinking and problem-solving to the most, and collaboration to the least among learning and innovation skills. In terms of the information, media, and technology skills, the LSC focused on improving information literacy to the most, and information, communications, and technology (ICT)literacy to the least. It was also determined that the curriculum and the textbooks ignored the learning outcomes and activities to improve students’ media literacy skills.Moreover, the LSC attempted to promote flexibility and adaptability to the most, and productivity and accountability to the least with regard to life and career skills. However, it was concluded that there was an overall harmony between the learning outcomes in the curriculum and the activities in the textbooks in developing 21st century skills.In other words, it was ascertained that both the learning outcomes and the activities and texts in the textbooks simultaneously intended to develop similar 21stcentury skills.
