Abstract

The decline in children’s exposure to local folktales is closely linked to the lack of digital literacy media that transform oral traditions into formats suited for digital-native learners. Kebo Kicak, a well-known folktale from Jombang Regency, holds strong cultural value and requires revitalization through accessible digital storytelling. This study aims to develop an interactive digital literacy medium in the form of an illustrated and narrated audiobook designed for kindergarten-aged children. A qualitative case study approach was applied using the Design Thinking framework, consisting of the stages of empathy, define, ideation, prototype, and user testing. Data were collected through field observations, interviews with cultural and early childhood education experts, and usability trials in local kindergartens. The prototyping process produced two audiobook modes: a self-reading mode supported by child-friendly digital illustrations, and a read-to-me mode integrating voice-over narration with gamelan-inspired background music to reinforce cultural identity. User evaluation through the User Experience Questionnaire (UEQ) indicated strong appeal, clarity, engagement, and perceived novelty. Children demonstrated positive attention, enjoyment, and improved motivation to read or listen independently, while teachers affirmed the media’s relevance for early literacy learning.The implementation of this digital storytelling medium shows that the Kebo Kicak audiobook effectively connects traditional folklore with contemporary multimedia practices. It enhances early literacy experiences while serving as a practical strategy for cultural revitalization among the digital-native generation.

Abstract

In the Early Childhood Education (PAUD) curriculum, the use of digital media in learning is necessary to adapt to technological developments and be able to create a mindful, meaningful, and joyful learning experience. However, KB Alfi Munir Jombang as an early childhood education institution is still dominated by conventional learning so it is not able to accommodate the characteristics of children as a digital native generation. This community service activity aims to improve the quality of learning through training and implementation of interactive visual learning media "Njombangan" based on Jombang local culture. The program is implemented through teacher training, mentoring media implementation for children through digital storytelling activities, coloring local cultural characters, and interactive digital games based on Jombang local culture. The evaluation of the activity utilizes Artificial Intelligence (AI) as an assistant for user behavior analysis. The results of the activity show an increase in teacher competence in creating simple digital learning media and a very high level of enthusiasm for learning in children. All students were able to complete the coloring activity well and achieved a 100% accuracy rate in the interactive game. The evaluation results showed a User Experience Questionnaire score of 90 (very good category), so the media is proven to be effective in supporting local cultural learning that is more interactive, fun, and adaptive to technological developments.
