However, teachers are reverting to their lecture methods and abandoning information technology (IT) when creativity is the number one skill in learning. This research offers a Canva application that aims to develop it as an interactive multimedia-based learning media. This development research uses the ADDIE model, carried out step by step. The ADDIE model used in this research starts from the Analyze, Design, Develop, Implement, and Evaluate stages to develop the Canva application as a learning product design. The results of this study revealed that media development with the Canva application obtained valid criteria from the assessment conducted by material and media experts. Canva, as an interactive learning media is very practical to use. Its practicality supports both practicality in time, place, and from the point of use. Canva media development also obtained a feasibility response from students with interesting criteria in terms of presentation feasibility, content feasibility, language feasibility, and design feasibility because each aspect of feasibility is in the percentage of 80-100%. This feasibility percentage shows that the development of Canva as a learning media is liked and interested by students and is effective for learning Fiqh.

This research aims to describe the use of the PjBL model assisted by the Wordwall application to improve student learning outcomes. The research method used is Classroom Action Research (PTK) in one of the State Elementary Schools in South City, Gorontalo City. Data were collected through observation, interviews, documentation and tests with research subjects consisting of students of Class VI at SDN No. 25 Kota Selatan. The results showed that out of a total of 16 students, 6 students (37%) achieved the passing grade, while 10 students (63%) did not achieve the passing grade. In Cycle I, the number of students who achieved the passing grade increased to 9 (56%), while the number of students who did not achieve the passing grade decreased to 7 (44%). Moreover, in the second cycle of the action, there was a significant increase, with 15 students or 94% achieving the passing grade, while 1 student or 6% did not achieve the passing grade. The research results showed that there was a change, namely from 63% to 94% of students who were declared to have achieved the KKM. Thus, it can be concluded that the use of the PiBL (Project-Based Learning) model, assisted by the Wordwall application, bas the potential to improve students' learning outcomes on solar system topic in Class VI SDN No. 25 Kota Selatan.

The research method used in this study is descriptive qualitative. The data was collected through interviews with class teachers, classroom observations, and document analysis. The results of this study show three findings. First, there are obstacles in implementing learning methods according to the Independent Curriculum in the form of a need for teacher readiness from designing to implementing the teaching and learning process at SDN 3 Menganti. Second, there is a lack of variation in learning methods used by grade IV teachers of SDN 3 Menganti in the learning process, so they are not in line with students' characteristics and learning interests. Third, the availability of facilities and equipment is inadequate, so implementing the Independent Curriculum in schools is hampered.

The study aims to produce a valid, practical, and effective character-based IPS e-module. The research employs the ADDIE model, which includes analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation stages. Data collection involved validation instruments from material, language, and media experts, as well as practicality questionnaires for teachers, student response questionnaires, and pretest and posttest questions. Data analysis utilized both qualitative and quantitative techniques. Subjects included teachers and 20 fourth-grade students from a public elementary school in Malang Regency. Results showed validation scores of 92.3% from material experts, 95% from language experts, and 97.5% from media experts, all categorized as very valid. Teacher practicality was rated at 98%, and student responses at 92.5%, both deemed very practical. Effectiveness, measured by the n-gain test, scored 78.06, indicating effectiveness. These results indicate that the character-based IPS e-module provides engaging material, making it easier for students to understand the content, increasing motivation and learning outcomes, and fostering student character development. The e-module makes learning interactive, with students feeling enthusiastic and actively engaged. The character-based IPS e-module can be used as an innovative learning media by integrating character values, making learning more meaningful.

P5PPRA activities are carried out by carrying out projects often not following local wisdom. This study aims to develop a P5PPRA module based on local wisdom in Bojonegoro. This study uses the ADDIE development model (analysis, design, development, implementation, evaluation). The results of this study are the development of a P5PPRA module based on local wisdom containing material about Bojonegoro's typical batik, which can equip students to understand local batik and have the skills to make simple batik using the eco print technique. It is evidenced by the percentage of student questionnaire results showing that students' attitudes towards the module reached 90%, and students' interest in the module reached 92%. In addition, the relevance of the module to improving students' batik skills reached 88%.

It also examines teachers' strategies to make interactions easier in an EFL classroom. In order to address the research problems, an exploratory sequential mix method was used, which included classroom observation, written papers, and an experiment in the classroom. The result of the study revealed that several strategies in applying critical literacy during interactive read-aloud were identified: juxtaposition, problem-solving, bookmark technique, say something, connection stem, switching and thinking hats. The test score of the experimental group has shown significant improvement from using the Interactive read-aloud approach, from 71.47 on the pretest to 87.47 on the posttest. The students also expressed varied enthusiasm and agreement regarding the benefits and enjoyment of Interactive Read-aloud. It is hoped that the practice of Interactive read-aloud can be widely used by teachers, parents, or educational practitioners to engage students in reading, enhance their motivation, and foster their critical literacy.

This study aimed to determine the development process and feasibility of open materials based on E-Comic. The research method used is Research and Development (R&D) with the ADDIE model. The study results are 1) Development of E-Comic-based teaching materials using the ADDIE model through 5 stages: analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. The process of developing teaching materials is carried out by analyzing student needs, characteristics, and curriculum, making plans such as storyboard design, material plans, and product design plans including character and cover designs using the AI-assisted Canva application. 2) The results of the feasibility test by media experts 1 and 2 scored 86% and 90% with the category "Feasible". The feasibility test results by material experts 1 and 2 scored 84% and 98% with the category "Feasible". The final stage was a field trial and then an evaluation was carried out with product revisions. Teacher response test, student responses in small and large groups scored 95%, 88%, and 87.2% with the category "Appropriate". It can be concluded that E-Comic-based teaching materials are appropriate for use in learning for students at school.
