This academic article aims to present ideas and approaches for developing innovative teaching methods in social studies to prepare teacher education students as instructors in the digital age. It emphasizes the use of technology in teaching and learning processes to stimulate deep learning and to help learners recognize the true value of education. In the digital age, both instructors and learners must adapt to the design and development of effective learning innovations. Key approaches include using technology to solve problems, developing learning processes, promoting student engagement, and enhancing the quality of learners. These learning innovations should focus on developing the skills and knowledge necessary in today’s world. Innovations in learning management that are widely used can be categorized into various types, such as innovations in educational product media, teaching methods, technology, assessment, and participatory learning. Categorizing these innovations helps instructors choose appropriate tools and strategies to improve the teaching and learning process, especially in the fields of social studies, religion, and culture, thereby creating more quality and effective learning experiences in this digital age.
