Implementation of Islamic Religious Education Based on Religious Moderation Through Digital Literacy in Preventing Radicalism Among Students in Indonesia

Study in Indonesia

Abstract

Radicalism among students has become an important issue in the digital era due to the abundance of extreme religious content that is easily accessible on the internet. Islamic Religious Education needs to adapt to technological developments. This study aims to examine the implementation of Islamic Religious Education based on religious moderation through digital literacy to prevent radicalism among students in Indonesia. Unlike previous studies, this research combines religious moderation values with the ability to use and understand digital media. The method used is qualitative research. The results show that the application of religious moderation through digital literacy can help students become more critical, tolerant, and less susceptible to misinformation. In addition, digital-based learning also helps to better instill religious values. These findings indicate a new approach to learning that is more in line with the development of the times. Therefore, there is a need for educational policies that combine religious moderation and digital literacy. Further research is recommended to develop more practical and easily applicable learning models.
