Abstract

The impact of the pandemic of Covid 19 forces students to stay on top of online learning. Technology with reasonable sophistication can be used better by English education students than Indonesian Language Education students because, in addition to language acquisition, information and applications in digital are generally English-speaking and are more numerous and easily obtained. This study aims to describe digital literacy in language learning among Indonesian Language Education students and English Language Education students in the new normal era. This research is a quantitative descriptive study with qualitative data verified in the form of a percentage. The data was obtained using Google forms for each of 100 students (200 samples) in Java and Sumatra randomly and by purposive sampling. The instrument uses closed questions with a Likert scale (five options) and open questions. Research results show that digital literacy in language learning among Indonesian Language Education students and English Language students in the new normal era is not significantly different, at the same level. Digital literacy in language learning is at level 4, that is, students have been able to improve significantly (quantitatively stated) the performance of daily life activities through the use of information and technology with an average bind of 3.59 (71.8%) and bind 3.46 (69.2%). It shows that learning in networks has increased students' mastery and digital literacy abilities.
