Abstract

Education has been shifted to a digital environment nowadays. Students must adapt to the implementation of distance learning. This online learning requires the activeness of students, especially to be independent in learning—self-directed learning. However, with many learning resources on the internet, digital literacy is also needed so that students can carry out their self-directed learning better. This study aims to determine whether there is a relationship between digital literacy and self-directed learning in high school students. This research method is quantitative with a correlational design. The sample for this study used a proportionate stratified random sampling technique and obtained as many as 259 1st and 2nd year students from SMAN 6 Semarang. The measuring instruments used are the digital literacy scale and the self-directed learning scale, with Cronbach's Alpha reliability scores of 0.827 and 0.851, respectively. The results of hypothesis testing are the acceptance of the working hypothesis, so it can be concluded that there is a relationship between digital literacy and self-directed learning. The correlation coefficient obtained is 0.217. In addition, descriptively, it is known that the subject's self-directed learning condition is in the medium category and the subject's digital literacy condition is also in the moderate category.
