Abstract

The high penetration of the Internet and social media among young people is a serious concern for all groups, including teachers at the elementary school level. Media literacy at the elementary school level becomes the foundation or fundamentals in preparing young people, especially elementary students in facing the increasingly changing environment in the current information age. Media literacy for educators, especially teachers at the elementary school level is a must amid the current wave of information and technology. Teachers at Tirtomoyo 1 Elementary School are parents of students who are responsible for education or media literacy. Media literacy for elementary school children is an important way and strategy in counteracting the flow of negative information circulating through social media. This activity is expected to be beneficial for teachers and students of Tirtomoyo 1 Elementary School in understanding how to use social media responsibly.
