Abstract

The rapid growth of digital technology is reshaping how young people learn, communicate, and participate in civic life. Guided by Ribble’s digital citizenship framework and Choi’s multidimensional model, this study examines the level of digital citizenship literacy among Indonesian high school students. It proposes a practical reinforcement model for civic education, using a quantitative, descriptive design and a cross-sectional survey. Data were collected from 40 eleventh-grade students using a validated 19-item questionnaire covering four dimensions: digital awareness, digital ethics, digital social responsibility, and digital civic participation. Results show a high overall literacy level (86.94%), with students demonstrating strong social responsibility and civic participation but lower critical awareness of digital information. Significant correlations among dimensions indicate that ethical awareness helps shape responsible civic engagement. Based on these findings, a Two-Phase Reinforcement Model was developed, emphasizing value exploration and critical reflection. This model offers a relevant approach for strengthening civic education in Indonesia’s transition toward a human-centered digital.

Abstract

This study examines the representation of anxiety through child imagery in Indonesian horror film posters, employing Roland Barthes’ semiotic framework. The depiction of children as protagonists in horror movie posters creates a complex interaction between innocence and terror, utilizing visual clues to elicit emotions and capture viewers' attention. The objective of this study is to analyze how children's visual representations evoke sensations of fear and anxiety by interpreting their denotative and connotative meanings. A qualitative content study was conducted on ten meticulously selected Indonesian horror movie posters, spanning from Danur (2017) to Taghut (2024). The study concentrates on visual elements, including lighting, color palettes, body posture, face expressions, and symbolic objects, to uncover the fundamental cultural and psychological significances. The results indicate that child imagery serves as a powerful semiotic tool that embodies socio-cultural anxieties around family, morality, and social norms, while simultaneously amplifying terror through the contrast of vulnerability with supernatural or perilous elements. This research demonstrates the use of Barthes' semiotic theory in interpreting complex visual texts and enhances our comprehension of horror aesthetics within Indonesian cinema. The study offers significant insights for scholars examining media semiotics, visual culture, and film studies, particularly those interested in the dynamics of terror representation in cinematic marketing.
