Abstract

This research explores the use of social media platforms as a means of political education for early voters. The aim is to identify the form and content of digital media platforms that can raise awareness and promote citizenry. The research methodology is qualitative, using Participatory Action Research (PAR), which includes in-depth interviews, focus group discussions, observations, and document analysis. The study finds that the existing digital content of political education focuses more on voter education rather than political education. As a result, the design of political education content needs improvement to develop political content. The research has implications for the design of digital platforms for political education, especially for early voters who cannot separate their daily lives from internet-connected devices.
