This study aims to conduct a systematic literature review using the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) methodology. A systematic literature review involves the analysis of recent studies that have been carried out in this field. This approach involves an in-depth review of relevant previous studies to collect data to identify challenges in the expansion of digitalization of education among primary school teachers. This challenge becomes the main focus because of the important role of teachers in integrating technology in the teaching and learning process. Based on the results of the analysis, several key challenges have been identified, including limited technological infrastructure, professional training and development, and technical support. In addition, lack of technology skills, inability or uncertainty of teachers in using technology and lack of support and leadership were also found to hinder this digitization process. The results of this study provide important guidance for the development of training programs and more effective support strategies to improve the integration of technology in primary school education. The implication of this study is to help education policy makers formulate policies that support a comprehensive and effective educational digitization effort.
