Digital Transformation Of Cultural Learning: The Effectiveness Of Interactive Multimedia In Strengthening The Pancasila Student Profile For Muhammadiyah Elementary School Teachers In Sleman

Abstract

Teachers' difficulties in integrating digital technology for learning about Indonesia's cultural diversity have become the main obstacle in realising the Pancasila Student Profile in the era of the Merdeka Curriculum. This service aims to transform teachers' digital pedagogical competencies through training and mentoring in the use of interactive multimedia based on Indonesia's cultural diversity. The activities were conducted in a hybrid format from April to September 2024, involving 25 fourth and fifth-grade teachers from 7 Muhammadiyah Elementary Schools in Kapanewon Gamping, Sleman. The evaluation results show a significant improvement in teacher competencies: (1) the technical ability to operate interactive multimedia increased from an average score of 45.6 (poor category) to 87.2 (very good category); (2) the skill to integrate cultural diversity content into Pancasila learning increased by 78%; (3) all participants (100%) successfully implemented interactive multimedia in their respective classroom learning. The long-term impact is evident from the initiation of the formation of a digital practitioner community and the plan to adopt multimedia into the school learning system. This training proves that a transformative approach based on practice and intensive mentoring can bridge the digital divide among teachers and strengthen cultural identity from primary education.
