Abstract

ABSTRACT

Digital learning at SMP Negeri 2 Sakra Timur still faces challenges related to limited infrastructure, differences in teachers’ technological adaptation skills, and limited access to devices and internet connectivity among students. These conditions indicate that the success of digital learning is determined not only by technology availability but also by the principal’s strategies for managing resources and addressing implementation barriers. This study aimed to (1) analyze the principal’s strategies in supporting digital learning at SMP Negeri 2 Sakra Timur; (2) identify the technical and non-technical challenges encountered; and (3) describe the solutions implemented to address these challenges. This study employed a descriptive qualitative approach involving nine informants selected using purposive sampling, consisting of the principal, vice principals, teachers, IT personnel, and students. Data were collected through observations, interviews, and documentation and analyzed through data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion verification. Data validity was ensured through source and technique triangulation, member checking, and observation. The findings showed that the principal’s strategies included strengthening infrastructure, developing teacher competencies, optimizing technology utilization, and conducting supervision and evaluation. Solutions were implemented gradually and adaptively according to the school’s conditions.

ABSTRAK

Digitalisasi pembelajaran di SMP Negeri 2 Sakra Timur masih menghadapi persoalan keterbatasan infrastruktur, perbedaan kemampuan adaptasi teknologi antarguru, serta keterbatasan perangkat dan akses internet peserta didik. Kondisi tersebut menunjukkan bahwa keberhasilan digitalisasi pembelajaran tidak hanya ditentukan oleh ketersediaan teknologi, tetapi juga oleh strategi kepala sekolah dalam mengelola sumber daya dan mengatasi hambatan implementasi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk (1) menganalisis strategi kepala sekolah dalam mendukung digitalisasi pembelajaran di SMP Negeri 2 Sakra Timur; (2) mengidentifikasi kendala teknis dan nonteknis yang dihadapi; serta (3) mendeskripsikan solusi yang diterapkan untuk mengatasi kendala tersebut. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif deskriptif dengan sembilan informan yang dipilih menggunakan teknik purposive sampling, terdiri atas kepala sekolah, wakil kepala sekolah, guru, tenaga IT, dan peserta didik. Data dikumpulkan melalui observasi, wawancara, dan dokumentasi, kemudian dianalisis melalui reduksi data, penyajian data, dan verifikasi kesimpulan. Keabsahan data dilakukan melalui triangulasi sumber dan teknik, member check, serta observasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa strategi kepala sekolah mencakup penguatan infrastruktur, pengembangan kompetensi guru, optimalisasi pemanfaatan teknologi, serta supervisi dan evaluasi. Solusi diterapkan secara bertahap dan adaptif sesuai kondisi sekolah.
