Abstract

The development of educational technology requires teachers to develop interactive, engaging learning media that are tailored to students' needs. One problem still encountered in schools is teachers' limited ability to utilize presentation applications as a learning medium that supports active student engagement. This community service activity aims to improve teachers' competency in utilizing Microsoft PowerPoint as an interactive learning medium at Nurul Faizah IBS Junior High School. The implementation method uses a training and mentoring approach, encompassing preparation, material delivery, media creation practice, and evaluation of training results. Participants are teachers actively involved in the learning process. The results of the activity demonstrated an increase in teachers' understanding and skills in operating PowerPoint features, designing engaging learning media, and integrating visual, audio, and animation elements into the learning process. Furthermore, participants demonstrated high enthusiasm throughout the activity and were able to produce more creative and communicative learning media. This activity positively contributed to improving teachers' pedagogical competence and supported the creation of more interactive and effective learning in the school environment
