Abstract

The development of educational technology requires teachers to be able to create innovative and interactive learning media. This workshop aimed to train teachers at UPT SMP Negeri 3 Galesong Selatan to use Canva as a digital design platform for developing interactive learning media. The activity was conducted by Educational Technology students through hands-on practice, including an introduction to Canva features, learning media design techniques, and the creation of educational content such as interactive presentations, infographics, instructional videos, and digital worksheets. This study aimed to describe the management of Canva utilization by teachers in developing interactive learning media. A qualitative approach with a descriptive method was used. The research subjects were teachers who actively use Canva in the learning process. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The results show that Canva utilization is managed through four areas of educational technology, namely design, development, utilization, and evaluation. Canva helps teachers create engaging learning media and supports interactive learning, although challenges remain, such as limited internet access and differences in teachers’ technological skills
