Implementation of the Hybrid History Information System On This Day as a Medium for Improving Digital Literacy
Keywords:
historical information systems, On This Day, digital literacy, digital learning, digital historyAbstract
The development of digital technology demands increased digital literacy so that people can access, evaluate, and utilize information critically, including in understanding historical content. History, as a field of knowledge widely spread in the digital space, is vulnerable to simplification and misinformation if not presented through appropriate educational media. This study aims to implement the hybrid historical information system On This Day as a medium for increasing digital literacy. The research methods used include system design, application implementation, and system evaluation for users. The developed information system presents historical events based on the date of occurrence using a hybrid approach that integrates digital content, interactive presentation, and flexible access. The results show that the hybrid historical information system On This Day is able to increase user engagement and support understanding of historical context and digital literacy skills, particularly in the aspects of information evaluation and understanding the chronology of events. Thus, this system has the potential to be an alternative history learning medium that is relevant and adaptive to the needs of society in the digital era.
