Indeks Literasi Digital Muslim Milenial di Indonesia

Abstract

This article reports on a quantitative explanatory research conducted with nationwide survey 1000 of millennial Muslim generations in five major cities in Indonesia regarding the digital literacy. The results found that the digital literacy level of millennial santri in Indonesia was quite good. Although the majority learn the internet independently, they were quite quick to adapt to cyber culture. Unfortunately, the duration of internet access has remained quite high that was likely to open up opportunities for negative effects from the internet. In addition, it was also found that several generations of millennial Muslims contributed to spreading hoax, even though without any intention. This occurred because they tended not to check or validate information to authoritative sources.
