This study describes the paradigm shift in disciplinary education from a rule-based system to a value-based one at the Pesantren Tamaddun in Jatinangor in response to the challenges of digital disruption. The background study is based on the urgency of strengthening the character of students who are vulnerable to the negative impacts of cyberspace, necessitating a reorientation of the educational model capable of intrinsically internalizing Islamic values. The purpose of this study is to analyze the effectiveness of implementing value-based discipline in strengthening students' moral resilience and to examine the transformation of the role of educators as role models in the virtual realm. Using a qualitative method with a case study approach, data were collected through in-depth observation and document review related to teaching practices at the Pesantren. The results show that the shift to a value-based model fosters students' independence in managing cyberspace, where the integration of digital literacy with the values of ta'dib and tarbiyah transforms technology into a creative and responsible means of da'wah. This fundamentally supported by the capacity of educators as uswah hasanah who actively contextualize religious teachings in virtual interactions. In conclusion, this model successfully builds integrity and adaptive character amidst the current digitalization. The recommendations include formalizing a values-based digital literacy curriculum, developing educators' capacity as digital mentors, conducting a large-scale comparative study to test the validity of the model, and fostering collaborative synergy between Pesantren, families, and the community to maintain the consistency of students' character in an increasingly complex cyber ecosystem.
