Abstract
The rapid development of digital technology has significantly influenced learning patterns and character formation in education. Teachers from Generation Z, who are closely connected to digital culture, possess strategicpotential to integrate technology into learning processes. This study aims to analyze the synergy between Generation Z teachers and the Love Curriculum as an innovation in character education in the digital era. This research employs a qualitative descriptive approach through a literature review, examining recent journals, books, and policy documents related to digital literacy, character education, and innovative learning practices. The findings indicate that Generation Z teachers are capable of designinginteractive, creative, and technology-based learning environments that are relevant to students' needs. The integration of the Love Curriculum provides a strong value foundation, emphasizing empathy, tolerance, compassion, and social responsibility. The study concludes that the synergy between Generation Z teachers’ digital literacy and the values of the Love Curriculum contributes to a balanced educational model that combines technological competence with humanistic character formation. The limitation of this study lies in its conceptual nature, indicating the need for future empirical research to test its application in classroom settings.
