Abstract

As learning facilitators, teachers need to be introduced to a wide variety of learning media that can support the learning process to be more attractive, covering German teachers in the Besuki area. In fact, there were situations related to the lack of German vocabulary owned by students that need to be immediately resolved. On the other hand, teachers in this area not only faced difficulties in monitoring student activities and their understanding in online learning, but teachers also possessed minor knowledge about creating interactive digital media for their classrooms. Wordwall, one of the digital-web-based interactive learning media, can also be used by teachers to teach German vocabulary to their students. Therefore, the training in creating interactive learning media using the Wordwall application was expected to provide assistance and positive impressions during the learning process to teachers and their students. This program was carried out in a blended model, a combination of online and offline meetings including six stages of activities, namely program socialization to the target community, arrangement of material and evaluation instruments, trainer presentation, accompaniment in media making, trainee presentation, and evaluation. In the evaluation stage, questionnaires were used to obtain the data from the trainees, which were then analyzed descriptively. The result depicts that there is a significant improvement in the proficiency level of German teachers in the creation of interactive learning media by using Wordwall. 70% of participants revealed that they are not only more proficient but also more confident in creating interactive learning media by using the introduced application.
