The Tanzanian government has enacted policies aimed at ensuring that children attain a level of proficiency in reading, writing, and arithmetic by the time they finish either their second or third grade. Nevertheless, empirical research suggests that a section of children is completing the obligatory seven-years’ duration of primary education without attaining essential proficiencies in reading and writing. However, it has been noted that the utilization of digital technology has a positive impact on the advancement of reading and writing abilities. This study examined the impact of digital media on the educational practices of lower-grade classrooms, specifically in relation to the enhancement of reading and writing abilities. The research encompassed a total of 36 individuals, comprising 12 teachers in the early grades, 6 school administrators, and 6 professionals specializing in information technology. These respondents were selected from 6 primary schools located in Dodoma City. The investigation focused on 3 government-run primary schools and 3 non-governmental primary schools. The research included a combination of qualitative and quantitative approaches within a contemporaneous triangulation methodology. The study's primary findings indicate that digital media is frequently employed for educational objectives. Students are not just utilizing technology, but also developing literacy competencies, and this early integration can be perceived as advantageous for further scholarly pursuits. Educators commonly hold the belief that various multimedia tools, including cartoons, instructional videos, digital media such as projectors, and online platforms like as YouTube, Twinkly, Akili, and Pinterest, have the potential to augment students' literacy abilities. This study proposes that educational institutions should prioritize the selection of digital resources that are specifically developed for educational purposes, in accordance with the curriculum, incorporate diverse media formats, and cater to various learning styles.
