Strategies to Overcome Learning Challenges Faced by Elementary School Students in Utilizing Technology

Abstract

The use of technology in learning in primary schools has great potential to improve the quality of education. However, various obstacles are still faced by students in their utilization, such as limited access, lack of digital literacy, as well as lack of support from the learning environment. This study aims to identify the main obstacles facing primary school students in using technology and formulate effective strategies to overcome them. The research method used is a qualitative study with a descriptive approach, involving observation, interviews, and study of literature. The results showed that strategies such as improving digital literacy training for students and teachers, providing adequate technology infrastructure, and collaboration between schools and parents can significantly reduce barriers to technology-based learning. In addition, innovation in teaching methods and the integration of more interactive technologies are also important factors in improving the effectiveness of learning. With the implementation of appropriate strategies, the utilization of technology in elementary education can be more optimal, so as to support the improvement of learning quality and academic results of students.
