- Abstract
Protist course requires students’ digital literacy skills to find various Protist problems in various information media. Digital literacy is defined as the ability of an individual to understand and apply information to various electronic media. This study aims to examine the digital literacy of students in the Protist course. A survey was conducted on 136 students who had attended the Protista course at Universitas Negeri Malang. Data were collected using a questionnaire with 29 statements consisting of technical, cognitive, and social-emotional dimensions. The data were analyzed by descriptive analysis. The results of the analysis showed that students obtained a percentage of 66.15% in the technical dimension (high), 46.14% in the cognitive dimension (medium), and 58.79% in the social-emotional dimension (medium). The average overall percentage was 57.03% in the medium category. This finding shows that students already have quite good digital literacy skills, especially related to the use of information technology. The empowerment of students’ digital literacy still needs to be improved with innovative digital-based learning strategies.
