Workshop Penerapan Media Animasi Cupak Gerantang Berbantuan Artificial Intelligence Sebagai Upaya Penguatan Nilai Karakter Di SDN 1 Jenggala Lombok Utara

Abstract

Strengthening Pancasila-based character education in elementary schools is an urgent need amid the decline in the internalization of moral values among students. Local wisdom, such as the Cupak Gerantang folk tale, has great potential as a source of educational values because it is rich in moral messages that are in line with the dimensions of the Pancasila Student Profile. However, learning in schools is still limited to innovative and contextual media, so teachers need new strategies that are in line with the characteristics of the digital generation. This community service activity aims to improve teacher competence through workshops on the application of Cupak Gerantang animation media assisted by artificial intelligence (AI) at SDN 1 Jenggala, North Lombok. The activity method consists of three stages, namely: (1) planning with needs analysis and material preparation, (2) implementation in the form of training on the use of animation with AI-based voice-over features, and (3) evaluation through mentoring and reflection on learning practices. The results of the activity showed an increase in teachers' understanding of the concept of character education, skills in operating AI-based animation media, and the ability to integrate Pancasila values into the learning process. Teachers showed high enthusiasm because Cupak Gerantang animation was considered relevant to local culture and attracted students' interest. Although there were still obstacles in the form of limited technological facilities and variations in digital capabilities among teachers, this activity proved to be effective in strengthening teachers' competencies and offering a character learning model rooted in local culture and in line with the demands of the digital era.
