Pelatihan Desain Infografis Interaktif untuk Mendukung Pembelajaran Kreatif

Abstract

This community service activity aims to improve the competence of students in the Indonesian Language and Literature Education Study Program at the Faculty of Teacher Training and Education, Pattimura University, in designing infographics as a learning medium. The background to this activity is the low level of understanding and skills among students in utilizing creative and communicative digital learning media. The training was conducted in three stages, namely socialization and provision of basic material on infographics, technical assistance in using the Canva application, and independent practice to produce infographic products. A total of 33 students participated in this training, with 91% of participants successfully creating infographics independently. The evaluation showed that the majority of participants considered the material easy to understand, relevant to the needs of prospective educators, the media and delivery methods interesting, and the presenters knowledgeable about the material. This training not only produced ready-to-use infographics for learning, but also training modules as additional outputs. The results of the activity showed a significant increase in students' digital literacy, visual creativity, and pedagogical skills, which supported the achievement of the university's Key Performance Indicators. In the future, this activity is expected to be integrated into the curriculum and replicated in other study programs to expand its benefits in producing educators who are adaptive to developments in learning technology.
