Summary/Abstract: This quantitative study investigates digital literacy disparities among high school students when studying physics in various educational environments, specifically contrasting penggerak and non-penggerak schools and urban versus rural settings. Utilising a cross-sectional survey methodology with a sample size of 330 students, the research evaluates competencies across four key dimensions of digital literacy. The findings reveal pronounced disparities, with students in penggerak and urban settings exhibiting superior digital literacy. These results emphasise the necessity of enhancing digital resources and literacy programmes in under-resourced schools to equalise educational opportunities and prepare students effectively for the digital future.
