Abstract

The digital era brings easy access to information and challenges developing students' character. This research aims to understand the problematic character of students in the digital era through qualitative field studies. This research was conducted at Al Rifai Islamic Boarding School using qualitative methods of observation, interviews and field studies. Data were analysed using the thematic analysis method. The results of the research show that there are several problems with the character of students in the digital era, namely: 1) Exposure to Negative Content, 2) Lack of Face-to-Face Social Interaction, 3) Weak Cultivation of Noble Character in the Family and School Environment 4) Influence of Popular Culture and Globalization 5) Lack of Regulation and Education in the Digital World. This research recommends several efforts to develop a character based on Islamic values in the digital era, such as instilling faith and piety, strengthening moral education, utilising information and communication technology, and building cooperation with parents and the community. Hopefully, this paper can be useful for religion, nation and society in instilling noble character based on Islamic values in the digital era.
