Abstract

The limited availability of digital literacy media and contextual reading materials based on local wisdom poses a challenge to reading literacy in elementary schools. Furthermore, teachers' competency in developing digital learning media still needs to be strengthened so that technology can be optimally utilized in the learning process. This community service activity aims to increase teachers' capacity in developing and implementing digital flipbooks of folk tales as a reading literacy medium based on local wisdom. The activity was carried out at SDN Padahanten I, Majalengka Regency, using a participatory and collaborative approach based on the needs of partners. The implementation method included socialization and needs mapping, training in digital flipbook development, media application in learning, mentoring and evaluation, and strengthening program sustainability. Through a learning-by-doing approach, teachers were directly involved in selecting and adapting folk tales, compiling scripts, selecting illustrations, and packaging reading materials into digital format. The activity results in the availability of seven digital flipbooks of digital literacy media based on folk tales that integrate text, visual illustrations, digital technology, and local wisdom values. This activity also provided teachers with practical experience in developing learning media and implementing them through shared reading activities, independent reading, and reading comprehension discussions. This program has the potential to strengthen teachers' capacity to independently develop media, enrich contextual learning resources, and support the preservation of local culture through reading literacy. Therefore, mentoring the development of digital flipbooks can be an alternative teacher empowerment strategy to support contextual and sustainable literacy learning innovations.
