SEMINAR PEMANFAATAN MEDIA DIGITAL INTERAKTIF DALAM PEMBELAJARAN IPA

In the current digital era, integrating technology into the learning process has become essential to enhance both the effectiveness of instruction and student engagement in understanding scientific concepts. In response to this need, this community service activity was carried out in the form of a seminar focusing on the utilization of interactive digital media in science learning at the elementary school level. One of the featured tools introduced during the seminar was Canva, a visual design platform that enables teachers to present learning materials in a more engaging, visual, and interactive format. The implementation method of this seminar consisted of four stages: initial observation of teachers’ needs, planning of training materials and strategies, socialization on the importance of digital media in education, and hands-on training sessions centered on the use of Canva for developing science learning content. The results indicate that the integration of interactive digital media can significantly enhance students’ learning motivation and facilitate comprehension of abstract science concepts. Moreover, teachers reported increased enthusiasm and creativity in developing technology-based learning strategies. This seminar also supports the implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum, which emphasizes student-centered learning and adaptability to technological advancement. Therefore, this activity is expected to serve as a preliminary step toward improving the quality of science education at the elementary school level through the innovative use of interactive digital media.
