Abstract

Bullying is a serious issue among elementary school students that can negatively impact their social and emotional development. To address this problem, a Community Partnership Program was conducted at SDN 03 Kawak Jepara, focusing on digital literacy training as a strategy to combat bullying. The training aimed to raise students’ awareness of various forms of bullying verbal, physical, and social while equipping them with essential digital literacy skills for safe online interactions. The program employed the Participatory Action Research (PAR) method, which involved the active participation of both students and teachers at every stage. Evaluation results indicated a significant improvement in students’ understanding of bullying and the importance of digital ethics. To ensure the program’s sustainability, the development of training modules and collaboration with parents and the broader community were recommended. Further research is necessary to explore the relationship between digital literacy and bullying prevention, enabling this initiative to evolve and adapt to the needs of edu-cation in the digital age. The implementation of this program has far-reaching im-plications for students, teachers, and the overall education system. One of the most notable outcomes is the enhancement of students’ digital literacy skills, which are crucial for navigating the modern educational landscape and future workforce. The digital literacy training yielded a 44.73% increase in students’ understanding of bullying. By integrating digital learning tools such as Quizizz and other interactive platforms, students not only improved their technological proficiency but also developed critical thinking, problem-solving, and independent learning skills. These outcomes underscore the importance of continued efforts to integrate digital literacy into educational strategies aimed at addressing bullying and fostering holistic student development.
