Analysis Of The Use of Technology in Improving The Literacy Skills of Elementary School Students : Literature Study

Citra Virdiana Fitri

Abstract


This study examines the use of technology to improve the literacy skills of elementary school students. The background reflects the challenges of low interest in reading and comprehension of texts in the digital age, driving the need for innovative solutions. The purpose of the research is to analyze the effectiveness of digital tools such as educational applications, e-books, and interactive games in improving literacy. Using a qualitative descriptive approach and a literature review method, data were collected from journal articles and research reports in 2013–2024. The results show significant improvements in reading ability, digital literacy, and critical thinking through technology integration, as evidenced in studies on "Let's Read" apps and digital media such as Kahoot and QR codes. However, challenges such as limited infrastructure and teacher training remain. The conclusion emphasized the potential of technology as a strategic solution for literacy development, provided that there is collaboration to overcome obstacles. Recommendations include teacher training, equitable access to digital resources, and curriculum-based content development.
