Interactive Learning Multimedia: A Shortcut for Boosting Gen-Z’s Digital literacy in Science Classroom

Generation Z in Indonesia is facing conditions where there are a lot of challenges such as violences in school, career, and sustainibility development. Therefore, Indonesia has developed an Independent Curriculum to acomodate and promote student’s self-reliance as a part of Pancasila Profile dimensions as a preventive action to face 21st century challenges. This research aims to assess student’s self-reliance among generation Z in Junior High School. This study is quantitative research explaining the quality of instrument and classifying student’s abilities based on questionnaire analyzed by using Rasch Model. The sample used in this research consist of 104 students from Junior High School that have been given a P5 program and required to be tested using 26 test items. The result of self-relliance quistionnaire is analyzed using the rasch model. The findings explained that students score and mostly get the lowest score in gender or demographic analysis. In conclusion, student’s self-reliance among generation Z is still unequal and low neither in gender or demographic. Furthermore, school should train student’s self-reliance intensively to prepare students facing future challenges.

“…The characteristic of Generation Z, being technologically literate, certainly makes them accustomed to using technology, such as social media, to connect with friends even without meeting them. Educators must apply technology in learning activities so students become focused and motivated to learn because they use interesting learning media (Fakhrudin et al, 2024;Natsir et al, 2022). This technology-based learning media can be developed in games because Gen Z is highly interested in playing games (Eva et al, 2022b;Fang et al, 2023;Perkins & Echeverry, 2022).…”

et al. 2024

This research aims to determine various technology-based media used in the world of education to shape character for Generation Z Research design and method should be clearly defined. The method in this research is a literature review of various research studies published in Scopus-indexed journals. This is the basis for researchers to choose general keywords, namely "technology media," "Generation Z," and " character education. " These keywords are then used to obtain internal literature data from the Scopus database. The search was carried out in the period 2010 – 2024.The search results obtained 57 metadata, including titles and abstract and analysis was carried out with the help of VOSviewer to find patterns of interrelationship between studies. The result showed learning media, character and character education, and Generation Z began to be discussed in 2020, so research discussing this can still be said to be new research. The visualization image above shows that most of the research that has been carried out discusses students and education. In contrast, more research needs to be carried out regarding learning media. Research on character education and Generation Z is also based on the above visualizations, which previous researchers have yet to carry out much. Based on the research that has been conducted, it can be seen about several benefits from using technology-based learning media, such as AR Alphabet Book, Game Animation Software, Whiteboard Animation Video, Visual Based Learning, Social MediaVideo Games, Visual Game Character Design Digital Anti-Corruption, Interactive Teaching Physics Materials, and E-Assessment

“…Meanwhile, based on the total dimension score, the critical thinking ability of new students reached 78.27%. Digital safety is the ability of students to maintain the security of personal data when doing activities in the digital space (Natsir et al, 2022). The important role of educators in maintaining students' internet safety in using digital technology (Manik, 2022).…”

The research aims to analyze the map of students' digital literacy capabilities as opportunities and challenges in implementing hybrid learning. The research uses a survey method with descriptive analysis. The sample was 35 Mathematics Education students, FMIPA, Indraprasta PGRI University, taken using a purposive sampling technique. The research results showed 82.83% digital literacy skills, with the largest percentage being the ability to use technology, namely 30.0% and information and data literacy skills at 21.83%, communication skills at 12.68%, critical thinking at 12.20%, and digital security (e-safety) capabilities of 11.74%. These results show that students' digital literacy skills are still not evenly distributed in every dimension, where the ability to use technology and information and data literacy is quite good, while communication, critical thinking and digital security skills are still lacking. The implementation of hybrid learning is still in the transition stage, namely the ability to utilize technology, literacy and data information. Thus, based on the map of students' digital literacy abilities, it can be concluded that students' digital literacy abilities need to be improved to answer the opportunities and challenges of implementing hybrid learning.
