The current shift in educational paradigms requires all educational stakeholders to be innovative and creative in designing engaging learning experiences with the aid of digital technology. Consequently, it is essential to equip prospective educators with technological competencies that align with the future landscape of education. As students' current technological proficiency remains insufficient, training on the use of Canva AI for designing interactive teaching materials is necessary for students of the PSPBSI program at FKIP UIR. This training aims to enhance students' technological mastery and competence in creating interactive teaching materials. The training employs a guided practice method utilizing guided simulation techniques. The participants consist of 32 students from the 6A semester who are preparing for their teaching internship program (KPLP). Data collection involved a pre-test, the intervention itself, and a post-test. Following the guided practice intervention, a survey and evaluation were conducted via a reflection questionnaire distributed at the conclusion of the activity. The results indicate that, in terms of competence, students gained the awareness and ability to design interactive teaching materials using Canva AI. Furthermore, student reflections—gathered through the questionnaire—revealed that they recognized the significant value of this activity in preparing them for their upcoming field teaching practicum.
