Keywords:
community service, teacher competence, digital learning mediaAbstract
The development of the industrial revolution 4.0 era and the Merdeka Learning policy requires educators to have the ability to be adaptive to changes in digital technology in the learning process. However, the reality is that there are still many teachers in rural areas who experience a digital competency gap so that they are not able to integrate technology optimally in teaching and learning activities. This community service activity aims to improve the competence of elementary school teachers in Suratmajan Village, Magetan Regency, in designing and developing creative and interactive digital-based learning media. The implementation method uses a participatory approach through hands-on workshop-based training, which involves interactive lecture stages, application use demonstrations, guided practices, and project-based learning. This activity resulted in a significant increase in teachers' skills in using digital platforms such as Canva and Quizizz to create innovative teaching media. In addition, this activity also builds teachers' confidence and creativity in innovating, as well as producing digital learning media products that are ready to be used in the classroom. The impact felt includes improving the quality of learning, active student involvement, and strengthening digital culture in the school environment. This program is expected to be a model for teacher empowerment that can be replicated in other regions in an effort to equalize the quality of technology-based education.
