Abstract

This program aimed to enhance STEM education at SDN Bringinan, Jambon, Ponorogo, by integrating PhET Interactive Simulations. The program focused on two main topics: energy transfer and energy transformations. Students from grades 4, 5, and 6 were divided into groups and guided by facilitators to explore these concepts using PhET. The program began with problem identification through discussions with the school's Principal and teachers, followed by careful planning and execution over two sessions in August 2024. The first session introduced students to heat transfer, while the second focused on energy transformations. Post-session evaluations showed that students successfully understood and applied these concepts, identifying energy sources, converters, and users, and explaining the process of energy transformations. The success of the program suggests the effectiveness of interactive technology like PhET in improving students' comprehension of complex scientific concepts, highlighting a valuable approach for future educational initiatives.

Abstract

This community service focuses on training teachers to use technology-based interactive learning media, especially the Wordwall platform, for Tsanawiyah Dharut Thalibin, Sampung, Ponorogo, and East Java. This training aims to improve teachers' skills in creating interactive digital worksheets to overcome student boredom and increase active participation in learning. The training was carried out in several stages, starting from problem identification and planning to evaluation. The results of this training showed that most teachers had not previously used technology-based learning media. After the training, teachers can use the Wordwall platform to create interactive learning activities, such as quizzes and games, which are expected to increase student engagement and create a more dynamic learning atmosphere. The evaluation showed increased teachers' understanding and skills in interactive learning media.
