Reyhan Cahya Pratama, Candra Utama

Abstract


The transformation of the digital era requires elementary school students to master digital literacy skills from an early age. However, there are still students who encounter difficulties in applying technology wisely and productively. This study aims to examine the role of YouTube media as an interactive learning resource in supporting the improvement of digital literacy of elementary school students. The method applied is Systematic Literature Review (SLR) by examining ten articles from national journals published from 2020 to 2024. The results of the study show that the use of YouTube contributes to increasing students' learning motivation, independence, critical reasoning capacity, and digital literacy skills. In addition, YouTube also supports the cultivation of positive character values through educational content. Thus, YouTube has great potential as a learning medium if used in a targeted manner under the guidance of educators.
