Abstract

The use of digital technology in the 21st-century education era demands innovative learning strategies that are able to foster student creativity and engagement. Canva for Education is a cloud-based graphic design platform that provides special features for educational purposes, offering great potential to be implemented in elementary school learning, especially in lower grades (grades 1–3). This research aims to explore the utilization of Canva for Education features in creating interactive learning in lower-grade elementary school classrooms. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques including observation, interviews, and documentation. The research subjects were grade 2 and grade 3 students and teachers at SDN 111/I Muara Bulian. The findings reveal that Canva for Education features—including interactive presentation templates, collaborative whiteboard, animation elements, educational infographics, and assignment features—successfully created an interactive, creative, and enjoyable learning atmosphere. Students showed high enthusiasm, increased motivation to learn, and improved digital literacy skills. Teachers also benefited from time efficiency in preparing visually appealing learning materials. This study confirms that Canva for Education is an effective, practical, and inclusive digital learning medium suitable for lower-grade elementary school environments and aligned with 21st-century education demands.
