Implementasi Service Learning dalam Penguatan Pola Asuh Digital Orang Tua

Abstract

The era of digital disruption has brought significant changes to parenting practices in early childhood education. Lack of digital parenting literacy has led to various problems such as gadget addiction, lack of supervision, and changes in children's behavior. This community service activity aims to improve parents' understanding and skills in implementing appropriate parenting practices in the era of digital disruption through a service learning approach. Service learning is a learning approach that integrates community service activities with academic reflection. The methods used include needs identification, program planning, outreach, and evaluation through pre- and post-tests. The participants were parents of students at RA Al-Bayan Parigi Pangandaran. The results of the activity indicate an increase in parents' understanding of digital parenting, particularly in managing screen time, monitoring content, and communicating effectively with children. Therefore, this activity is effective in increasing parents' awareness and competence in facing the challenges of parenting in the era of digital disruption
