AbstractThe main challenge in learning history in the current digital era is the lack of understanding and knowledge of historical facts for students regarding the historical value contained in past events. In addition, the gap in access to technology also affects the effectiveness of learning, which ultimately impacts the quality of education. This study aims to explore the potential of digital media in learning history, especially to improve historical thinking skills in generation Z. The characteristics of this generation that is open to technology allow them to access historical information quickly and interactively. The method used in this study is a literature review with a qualitative approach, which analyzes various relevant literature sources. The results of the study show that digital media has a significant impact on enriching historical understanding, developing students' analytical skills, and fostering values of nationalism and love for the country. However, the challenges faced are low interest in reading and lack of digital literacy, which can hinder the maximum use of digital media. However, the use of digital media can increase learning motivation and provide a more flexible, interesting, and accessible learning experience at any time, so that it can help students understand history in a more enjoyable and effective way.
