Strategies for Digital-Based Islamic Education Learning to Enhance Students' Islamic Literacy in the Era of the Industrial Revolution 4.0

Abstract

The development of digital technology in the era of the Industrial Revolution 4.0 has brought significant changes in various sectors, including in the field of Islamic education. Digitalization in the learning system provides opportunities for students to access Islamic teaching materials in a more flexible and interactive manner, increasing their involvement in understanding Islamic values. However, on the other hand, the adoption of technology in Islamic learning also faces various challenges, such as limited digital infrastructure, low digital literacy among educators, and the validity of Islamic content in online platforms. This study aims to analyze digital-based Islamic education learning strategies to improve students' Islamic literacy in the era of the Industrial Revolution 4.0. This study uses a literature study method with a descriptive qualitative approach, which examines various previous research results related to the use of technology in Islamic education. Data was obtained from scientific journals, academic books, and research reports that discussed the implementation of digital strategies in Islamic education. The results of the study show that digital-based learning can improve students' understanding of Islam through interactive media such as e-learning, learning videos, gamification, and artificial intelligence (AI)-based technology. However, its effectiveness is still influenced by the readiness of educators, access to technology, and regulations in the application of digital-based learning methods. Therefore, a more adaptive and innovative strategy is needed in the development of a digital-based Islamic learning system to ensure success in improving students' Islamic literacy in the digital era.
