Abstract
The phenomenon of digitalization, which manifests itself in almost every field of daily life, strongly affects education processes, and traditional education methods and techniques are replaced by digital technologies. The rapid digitalization experienced today has brought the concept of digital literacy. In its most general definition, digital literacy refers to the ability to find, understand, analyze, produce and share information through network devices such as smartphones, tablets, laptops and desktop computers. Digital literacy also includes knowing the unique legal rules and ethical norms of online environments, production and sharing patterns. Digitalization seems inevitable in religious education and Quran Courses as in all fields of education. This research aims to examine the digital literacy levels of Qur'an Course Instructors. The sample consists of 351 Qur'an Course Instructors working in Sakarya and Düzce provinces. For collecting the data, a questionnaire prepared by the researcher to determine the demographic variables of the participants and the Digital Literacy Evaluation Scale developed to measure the digital literacy level of the participants were used. The scale consists of “awareness, contextual use, secure participation, digital identity management and basic tool and media knowledge” sub-dimensions. The findings show that the digital literacy level of Qur'an Course Instructors differs according to the type of course they work. It has been observed that the digital literacy level of those who need training on the use of digital technologies is significantly lower. It is thought that providing basic digital literacy training to Qur'an Course Instructors will increase the quality of service
