Developing Skills in Media Production and Using Learning Management Media with the Canva Application of Teachers at Roi et Vocational Coll

Abstract

This study aimed to 1) develop teachers’ knowledge and understanding of producing and using instructional media with the Canva application, 2) develop and assess the skills of Roi Et Vocational College teachers in producing and using instructional media, and 3) examine teachers’ satisfaction with the skill development process. The study employed an action research design based on the framework of Kemmis and McTaggart and was conducted in two cycles. Each cycle consisted of planning, action, observation, and reflection. The research participants were seven volunteer teachers from Roi Et Vocational College. The research instruments included a knowledge test, interview form, observation form, meeting records, skill assessment form, and satisfaction questionnaire. The development activities consisted of workshops and internal supervision.
The findings revealed that:
1. In the first cycle, the teachers demonstrated increased knowledge and understanding of producing and using instructional media with Canva and were able to create instructional media; however, three teachers still experienced difficulties in content design, template selection, and the use of Canva tools.
2. In the second cycle, follow-up supervision and additional guidance helped all seven teachers improve their ability to produce and use instructional media more accurately and completely, and they were able to apply the media in instructional activities.
3. The teachers’ satisfaction with the skill development process was consistent with the level reported in the study. In summary, workshops combined with follow-up supervision helped develop teachers’ knowledge, understanding, and skills in producing and using instructional media with the Canva application in accordance with the objectives of the study.
