Abstract

The development of information technology and globalization has created various challenges in fostering students’ citizenship character, including low digital literacy, the spread of misinformation, and declining participation in democratic life. These conditions highlight the importance of strengthening civic awareness through Civic Education. This study aims to analyze the concept of civic awareness, explain the process of its construction, and identify the factors influencing its development in Civic Education learning at junior high schools in Lampung. The research employed a qualitative approach using a library research method. Data were collected from scientific journals, books, and relevant previous studies, then analyzed through data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that civic awareness is constructed through the integration of civic knowledge, civic skills, and civic disposition. The construction process occurs through value internalization, critical reflection, and the actualization of civic behavior. Both internal and external factors influence this process. Therefore, Civic Education learning should be designed using participatory and contextual approaches integrated with digital literacy to foster democratic, critical, tolerant, and responsible young citizens
