Abstract

The rapid development of information and communication technology has changed the pattern of community interaction, including among students. Social media is the main space for students to acquire, share, and shape public opinion. The focus of this activity is the socialization of Law Number 1 of 2024 concerning Information and Electronic Transactions as the legal basis that regulates the use of information technology and social media in Indonesia. Through this socialization, students are expected to understand the rights, obligations, and legal consequences of the digital activities they carry out. The method of implementing this activity is carried out through a participatory approach, in the form of legal counseling, interactive discussions, and case studies. The students are actively involved in the learning process in order to understand and internalize the material presented. The socialization material includes the introduction of provisions in the law, social media ethics, how to recognize and counteract hoaxes, and the importance of maintaining the security of personal data. The results of this activity show an increase in students' understanding of digital literacy and legal awareness in social media. Students become more sensitive to the impact of each digital activity, both socially and legally. This socialization not only provides knowledge, but also builds collective awareness to create a safe, polite, and productive digital space.
