Abstract


Low literacy and critical thinking skills pose challenges to improving the quality of education in Indonesia, particularly in lecturer-centered learning. This study aims to analyze the transformation of critical digital literacy-based learning models in Islamic boarding schools (pesantren). The study employed a qualitative approach with a multi-site case study design. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, then analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model. The results show the development of critical digital literacy characteristics in students, including the use of digital devices, information management, digital content transformation, and socio-cultural understanding. Furthermore, the evolving learning model is adaptive, with technology integration, information exploration, collaboration, project-based learning, and a shift in the role of lecturers to facilitators. These findings confirm that critical digital literacy is not only technical but also reflective and contextual, integrated with Islamic boarding school values.
