In the current era, the world of education faces challenges of how to design learning by using digital media with the intention to improve the instructional quality and students’ competencies. Digital media are important in the world of education since they help teachers to present materials contextually, visually, interestingly, and interactively. The present study was aimed at identifying student teachers’ perceptions on the use of digital literacy as a learning resource. The study was a survey involving students of the universities that had a partnership with USAID Priority as the research population. A total sample of 168 students were selected from seven universities. Data were collected using questionnaires, interviews, and documentation. The weighting of the questionnaire scores used the Likert’s scale. The variable Digital Literacy consisted of four indicators of ICT basic competencies, informational skills, media awareness, and computational thinking. The findings showed that the student teachers had good perceptions in the use of digital literacy as a learning resource. On the ICT basic skill indicator, the average score was at the high category; on the informational skill indicator, the average score was at the very high category; on the media awareness, the average score was at the high category; and on the computational thinking indicator, the average score was at the medium category. © 2020, Universitas Negeri Yogyakarta (Yogyakarta State University).
