This research aims to explore innovations in elementary school teacher education based on digital technology and its impact on learning quality. Using a qualitative descriptive approach and case study design, this study involves several elementary schools that have implemented digital technology in the learning process. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observations, and documentation analysis. The results of the study show that the application of digital technology can increase student engagement, teaching creativity, and teachers' digital competence.
