Students' digital technology literacy is required to develop technology-based teaching skills as prospective teachers. Therefore, students' digital technology literacy profiles must be known as a basis for learning policies. This research aims to describe the digital technology literacy profile of students as prospective elementary school teachers. Using purposive sampling, a survey was conducted with a sample of 330 education students at PGRI Madiun University who have taken the Learning Strategy course in the sixth semester. The instrument used was multiple-choice questions and questionnaires. The data analysis technique used descriptive statistics by presenting data through mean and grand mean formulas. The research results showed that the average student's ability to understand technology and digital information scored 2.34 in the low category. Meanwhile, students' abilities in using digital technology and information had an average score of 2.42 in the low category. Based on these data, efforts are needed to improve students' digital technology literacy skills as prospective elementary school teachers. This is realized in the Learning Strategy course which focuses on understanding and using digital technology and information.
