Institutional Repository UIN Sunan Kalijaga YogyakartaKREATIVITAS GURU DALAM MENGGUNAKAN CANVA SEBAGAI MEDIA PEMBELAJARAN MEMBACA HURUF PADA ANAK KELOMPOK B TK TELADAN YOGYAKARTANIM.: 22104030045Checar Dwi ArsiauthorThis study aims to describe teachers' creativity in using Canva as a learning medium for reading letters for children in Group B of Teladan Kindergarten Yogyakarta and to describe indications of children's interest in reading letters during the use of the media. This study used a qualitative method with a descriptive approach. The subjects of this study consisted of two class B teachers and children in Group B at Teladan Kindergarten Yogyakarta. Data collection techniques were carried out through observation, interviews, and documentation. Data analysis used data condensation techniques, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results of the study showed that teachers' creativity in using Canva was evident in their ability to design and develop various engaging learning media, such as flashcards, alphabet posters, children's worksheets, picture storybooks, and letter games tailored to the characteristics of early childhood. The implementation of Canva-based learning media was carried out through systematic planning and implementation stages, starting from determining the theme, learning objectives, selecting media designs, and using the media in letter reading activities. The use of Canva provided a positive response from children, demonstrated by increased attention, focus, enthusiasm, and active involvement in letter reading activities. In addition, the use of Canva media was able to support children's interest in letter reading because learning became more interesting, fun, and not monotonous. Although there were several obstacles, such as differences in teacher abilities in using Canva, limitations on certain features, and difficulty finding appropriate design ideas, teachers overcame these through collaboration between teachers, sharing learning media, participating in workshops, and utilizing school-provided facilities. The implications of this research indicate that Canva can be an alternative technology-based learning medium that supports teacher creativity in designing more engaging and meaningful literacy lessons for early childhood. The results of this study can also serve as a reference for early childhood education institutions in optimizing the use of digital technology to improve the quality of learning and children's interest in literacy from an early age.371.1 Guru, Tenaga Pendidik, Tenaga Pengajar2026-07-03UIN SUNAN KALIJAGA YOGYAKARTA;FAKULTAS ILMU TARBIYAH DAN KEGURUANThesis
