Abstract:
Not all the teacher leader graduates have been appointed as educational leaders because their value is not yet known. To find out the value of a teacher leader, we can use their skills in digital literacy and their roles at school and outside school. This research uses a qualitative phenomenological approach through interviews and observations in Kendal Regency, Central Java Province, Indonesia. The research results show that the digital literacy skills of teacher leaders were more advanced than those of regular teachers, and that their roles were broader and more varied. Based on these results, it is recommended that the teacher leader program be disseminated and continue to be developed. Regional heads are recommended to appoint teacher leaders as school principals and supervisors.
Keywords: digital literacy, role of teacher leaders, guru penggerak, program guru penggerak
