Abstract

The existence of technology helps to improve teaching and learning methods in schools. Islamic boarding schools as one of the many educational institutions in Indonesia are also affected by the influence of this information technology development. This research was conducted to see how Islamic boarding schools survive amid digitalization due to the emergence of information technology. This research will be carried out using a descriptive qualitative approach. This research was carried out using a literature study on various research results and previous studies that are still relevant. The results of this study then found that the use of information technology can provide an increase in the efficiency and also the effectiveness of the learning process and management of Islamic boarding schools. The existence of information technology can also help improve Islamic propagation and da'wah in society. Even though the information technology infrastructure in Islamic boarding schools is still largely inadequate, it does not mean that Islamic boarding schools need to wait until the infrastructure is completed, because this can cause Islamic boarding school education and learning to be left behind by other public schools.
