Abstract

The Role of Digital Literacy in Preventing Academic Plagiarism Among PBA Students. Academic plagiarism is an important issue in higher education because it directly affects the quality of education and the scientific integrity of students. This problem is becoming increasingly complex due to the diversity of available digital information sources, requiring a deeper understanding of student behavior and experiences. This study aims to examine the role of digital literacy in preventing plagiarism among students of the Arabic Language Education Study Program (PBA) at IAI Badrus Sholeh. Using a descriptive qualitative method, data were collected through interviews, observations, and document reviews, then analyzed using a thematic approach. The results reveal that students with better digital literacy skills tend to be able to search, verify, and manage references correctly, thereby reducing the risk of plagiarism. Digital literacy encompasses technical skills as well as ethical and critical understanding of online sources. Therefore, strengthening digital literacy through training, workshops, and academic guidance is a strategic step toward building an ethical, honest, and responsible academic culture that avoids plagiarism.
