Peningkatan Kesadaran Literasi Digital dan Keamanan Siber melalui Relawan TIK di SMP IT Satu Muharram

Abstract

The digital literacy and cybersecurity outreach program implemented by the ICT Volunteers of the Institut Teknologi Garut at SMP IT Satu Muharram aims to improve students' understanding of the challenges and risks of using information technology. This community service was carried out through outreach and data processing using a quantitative approach with a post-test only design. The sample consisted of 43 students in grades 7A and 7B who were selected purposively. The instruments used in the evaluation included a post-test, a Likert scale, and an observation sheet. The evaluation results showed that the average student understanding score reached 79.77 out of 100, with the majority (58.14%) in the high category. The digital literacy aspect scored an average of 81.86%, while the cybersecurity aspect was 77.67%. The success of this program was supported by the delivery of age-appropriate materials, an interactive approach, and the relevance of the topics to students' needs. However, some students still showed low understanding, especially in the cybersecurity aspect, which is a note for improvement in the next program implementation.
