Pentingnya Literasi Sains di Era Digital

Abstract

Digital technology has transformed how people access, process, and share information. Although it expands access to scientific knowledge, it also increases exposure to misinformation and disinformation. This article examines the importance of scientific literacy, its challenges, and strategies for strengthening it in the digital era. Using a library research approach, the study reviews books, scholarly articles, international reports, and policy documents. The findings show that scientific literacy supports critical thinking, problem-solving, informed decision-making, and responsible technology use. Its development requires contextual learning, digital integration, teacher competence, and collaboration among schools, families, governments, and communities to build a sustainable scientific culture.
